Fire Almost Causes Panic.

At 10 o'clock last night the blacksmith
shop of Harry Evans, a two-story frame
structure, caught fire. By hard work the
firemen saved the fran of the building,
although the interior Of same was en-
tirely Quilted. How the fire started is a
mystery. h loss will be at least, 1900,
with NJ insurance. Tn Benjamin Stock
company was playing at the Bryner Opera
house. which was crowded, and when the
fire ben rang a panic and stampede was
narrowly averted. The opera house is
on the second floor OF the building, with
but a narrow stairway for an exit, and
had the crowd not been assured hat the
fire was not in that particular building.
there would certainly have been many in
jured and perhaps several killed In the
rush that would " taken place
