THELACK OF SUFFICIENT HOSE.
Walter Cowett's House Nearly De-
strO.ed sunday.

Walter Cowetts residence on Cow
EFT street was nearly destroyed by fire
Sunday forenoon and the firemen
COPIED with the flames for over an
hour before 1t was extinguished A
part of the furniture was saved. The
fire started around the chimney In
the ell, and following an alarm from
box AZ, about 1870 o'clock. a crowd
quickly got the hose from the hose
house on Jewett street and rushed
to the scene of the fire. When cou-
pied on to the hydrant 1t reached
within about ten rods of the house.
The men evidently thinking the hose
was elastic pulled so hard on it that
they got the nozzle nearer the house
but the hose severed connection with
the hydrant. The flames by this time
we're pouring from the roof of the
house. Fully - minutes passed be-
fore fremen arrived from the engine
house and on account of concourse
of difficulties ii was some time be-
fore the firemen got to work. The
house is over milo from the fire
engine house and the auxiliary house
at Jewett street became useless be-
cause of insufficient hose.
