"A fire was started in the home Of
| Miss Florence Child on Saturday by the
melting of an electric fixture, which
| dropped upon bed. Fortunatelyit was
discovered in time to prevent any more
serious consequences. AS this is the
second trouble of this kind had there
recently an investigation was made
when it was found to be due to the i'm
proper wiring of the fixtures
