The Cavour Clarion tells
about burning Of the lumber

Douglas had charge in part
as follows: "The fire orig
mated from the explosion
OF a gasolene tank on the
upper floor Of the front part
of the building. The rooms
were occupied by B. III.
Douglas and family. He
arose at $50 and attempted
to light the gasolene stove.
A defect in the tank allowed
the oil to escape and when
the match was applied the
oil in the tank ignited, and
in al instant the flames
burst forth clear to the cell
ing. The explosion knock
ed Mr.. Douglas out of COM

tinguish the blaze, but soon

But this Is tale of Fatty and Natty
