Sunday morning at $3.50 o'clock the
department responded to a still alarm
for fire in SINNERS Tavern that
might have proved very disastrous,
but fortunately the blaze was extin:
.guished before any great damage was
done, and was confined to only one
room.
The fire was caused by a guest while
walking about his room striking the
gas pipe stove connection with his
loot, breaking the. pipe in two close to
the wall. The lighted gas burst forth
setting the, bed on fire and badly burn
ing the door and woodwork in the
room. After some trouble the gas was
shut off from the cellar. The firemen
played small stream of water on the
blaze from hose connection in the
bath room on the same floor The
fire caused considerable excitement
among the guests for short while.
