FIRE IN AN ATTIC.
Some Damage Done to House and Fur
niture Saturday Morning

Fire caught Saturday morning In the
attic Of the house at g. Bissell street,
owned by Philip BaCllaro and occupied by
his family and that OF J. W. Wilett. The
flames We're mostly confined to the attic
and the damage done was not large.
Smoke was discovered issuing from nm
upper window about II 30 o'clock and a
still alarm was sent in. followed by gen
eral alarm from box 81. Little water was
used and the chemical did most OF the
work putting out the fire. Most of the
household furniture was taken out so
that the loss on that VIII be small. In
onlvone place did the hamescreep through
into tho second story.
Captain Lynch had narrow escape
from serious injury. When he first en-
tered the attic the smoke was so thick
that nothing could be distinguished and
he stepped through a hole about two feet
square. Driver Snow of station one was
Just behind him and he grasped an arm
while Lynch got hold of the hose with
the other and was thus held up.
Mr.. Bagliaro's loss on house and fur
nture was covered by insurance Mr.
Willett had no insurance.

Miss Liberty who has adorned the
New York harbor for so long Will
either have to retire from public view
or have new dress. for a careful in
vestigation has revealed the fact that
there are nearly fifty holes of varying
size In her present costume of bronze
plates. The statue is built up of these
bronze plates which are very thin and
work which is still as strong as could
be wished. An army engineer recent
ly made n close examlnatio of the
Statue-thoy look It over that way once
a year and found that there were just
about nifty small holes in the bronze
These holes come usually in folds and
are in spots where the plates always
were bit thinner than the general
run of the statue. They also appear
seemingly on the more exposed sides.
There is no immediate danger for the
