caused by the celebration of the
Fourth Of July. The fire department
answered two calls, one In the morn
ing and one at night. but luckily the
damage was very slight, the latter
blaze being trash fire.
The morning blaze was . shed in the
rear of the residence Of Mrs. Laura
Hensley, 556 West Main street At
1915 o'clock and Is supposed to have
been caused by IRE cracker. Sew
eral boys were shooting the peppers"
near the shed and it ID thought that
the grass in which they we're tossed
caught fire and spread to the she'd
The damage was practically nothing.
The second fire was trash pile in

about $50 o'clock last night. 1t 10
thought that sky rocket struck In
the midst of the pile Of papers on its
return to the earth and caused the
blaze. The department easily extin-

A volunteer fire department com
posed Of the neighbors Of G. w. Nc.
Carly, saved the McCarty homex, 1902
West Second street from a costly
blaze last evening about 7:45 o'clock
The fire broke out in one of the clos
cts, presumably from wires, and was
gaining a good start when found. It
was long run for the fire depart
.ment and serious damage might have
been done had they waited until the
wagons arrived. The garden hose was
suggested and in moment there were
two of the little streams of water
playing on the fire. BY the time the
fire department arrived the blaze was
nearly extinguished and required nc
assistance from the firemen.
