A passer-by saw the second out

moning the fireman at AS a. m. to
their task uncOmpletcd. Soon the
flames coiled in the roof and the
building was seen to be doomed.
The people in the neighborhoOd
expressed great indignation that no
watcher was left after the first out
break.
Mrs. Mott stated to the Journal
that even on the first alarm, when
was telephoned in. it took the de
department 80 minutes 10 reach the
scene.
Later the Pearson home, to which
the patients were moved. and which
is near the hospital, was threatene"
by the flames which consumed the
building where the fire originated
Preparations were made to move the
patients a second time.
The fire was under control at Z:4o
but the building was gutted,-]ourn-
al.
The original fire was discovered in
the kitchen of the hospital shortly at
ter midnight last night and after a
couple of hours work by the hremen

guished. The original los did not eN-

the heretofore undefeated Carson

those things have to be expected by

Miss Florence Rurlingame played

half, and Miss Elsie Farrer. in the

cheered.
