An alarm of fire was pulled in from
box 80 at S.35, Saturday morning, for
slight blaze in the house occupied
by Mrs. c. E. Bradley on the corner
of North avenue and High street. The
department promptly responded. but
it was not necessary to turn on any
water as the fire was easily extin-
guished with the aid of chemicals.
The blaze was around a fireplace in
the front room and appeared to be
between the partitions. There was
considerable smoke. but the damage
to the house was slight. Mrs. Brad
ley, who is dangerously sick. was in a
room off the parlor, and it was neces-
sary to remove her to the kitchen.
She stood the shock and excitement
as well as could be expected. The
all out signal was sounded few min
