FIRE At JAIL,
Gas Jet In Chamber Wednesday Even.
lhe Causes Damage Of About $3.50.

The fire department was called out las.
evening BY an alarm at 7.31 from box rs.
at the corner OF Winthrop and State
streets. due to the discovery of a brisk
fire in the Kennebec county jail. The
fire originated in a chamber in the north.
west corner OF the second story of the
building and was due to the igniting OF
the woodwork of 4 window casing by the
flame of 4 gas JIG. at the side of the win
dow.
The fire was well underway whnr dis
covered and had burned through The cas-
ing and was working its way upward in
the west wall of the building. The fro
men We're quickly on hand and by promp;
and efficient work with chemical cXtin-
guishers from the hos, wagons and hook
and ladder truck succeeded in stopping
tn" fire without putting any water in the
building.
The fire had worked its way up in the
wall nearly to the roof of the Jail and
also in under the floor of the attic. but
tho firemen by removing some of the
wood work We're enabled to get at the
blaze with the acid and to kill it out
before any great amount of damage re-
suited. The damage will probably not ex-
coed $3.50. and it is understood that it will
he covered by insurance. The about was
sounded at o'clock.
Chief Buckley and his men are 10 be
congratulated on the efficient manner in
which they handled the fire. Had the
water been turned into the building the
damage to that structure must have been
considerable. but by getting promptly at
work with the chemicals the damage
was reduced to minimum.
BY q strange coincidence it was -four
years ago that a former fire occurred AT
the Jail, and. as in the case of the fir
last evening. a new sheriff had Just as
sumed charge of the building.
