FIRE IN E.. M. MlLLER'S RESI-
 DENCE
THREATENS FOR TIME TO DESTROY
 THE HOUSE.

Fire broke out, Friday afternoon, about 3 o'clock, in the residence of E. M. Miller. MT Miller was away in Hawleyville at the time but word was telephoned to F. A. Young for assist ance, and in a short time MT Young, George R. Wilson and others hastened to MT Miller's house. The fire had broken out on the second floor near a chimney, and was hard to get at. A hole was cut in the floor and water soon deadened the blaze. While in the attic Investigating the matter G. R. Wilson says he was nearly overcome with smoke, but reaching window he pulled out sash and all and soon re- vived, so he could return to the attack. Word was telephoned to the Street, and Patrick Cannon, Postmaster Dun come, J.-T. Sheehan and Constable Johnson drove over, but the fire was practically under control by the time they arrived. That the house was saved from burning Was due perhaps to the fact that there was a telephone in the house, enabling help to be sum- moned on short order.
