DISASTROUS FIRE.
The bell rang about eight o'clock Tues
day night, and the fine audience which had
assembled in the Auditorium to hear Mrs.
jackson, missionary, from India, dis
persed like magic. The fire originated in
the peak of the front gable of the Ceder-
view cottage, on West avenue, directly In
front Of Summit Park, and was caused,
presumably, by defective electric wire.
Not being plastered the whole roof was
ablaze in moment Firemen were soon
on the scene, and scores Of young men, re-
gardless Of clothing, worked like Troians.
The roof OF the two adjoining cottages
caught fire. but little damage was done.
The fire was extinguished by the time it
had burned ont the second story, but the
first is practically of no value. The cot
tages are SO close together there is extreme
danger Of a fire getting beyond control, and
every fire fighter realize it. A great cheer
went up from seemingly thousands Of
throats when 1t was found it was under
control The Clearview was one Of the
finest cottages in the grove, and we under

business suit for tennis outfit, and was on

money remained in the pockets of the bust
ness suit which was destroyed.
