The Fire.

Thursday morning at 1920 as
Charlie Walker, of LaBelle,
the artist and Harry Bowen. of
Clarence, the man-about-town,
we're vending their way home,
they scented fire and having
good 0noses, followed up the
scent and landed at the home of
Lum Leasure. where they found
a volume of smoke flowing from
every crack aud crevice and
KEY hole.
The young men thought they
heard some one in the house
and looking through a window
saw a baby carriage. Then.
oh, twas then, the thought
came; there's baby in that
buggy and then like heroes in
yellow back novels they sprang
through the WINDOW, SASH, s ass
and all and grabbed the buggy,
but oh pshaw, there wasn't d
thing in it,
Then they gave the alarm
aud by the time the engine and
crew got there the entire inter.
ior of the building was a fire.
With d good engine and plen.
ty of water, the building was
soon flooded with aqua pura
and the fun was over.
The household goods was de-
stroyed and the building
Quilted.
The fire originated under a
stairway, but how? Mr.. Leas-
ure and family had been away
from home for week and tina t
causes the fire to be mystery.
