FIRE ALARM TURNED
 INTO POLICE STATION
ONL DWELLING BURNED AND AN. OTHER DAMAGED BY FIRE
 EARLY THIS MORNING
Fire Chief Breiner Says Delay Would Be Avoided If Alarms Were
 Turned Inf0 Cenfnal


 Turned Into Central.
 Fire at 12:10 o'clock this morning totally destroyed a four-room cottage and contents at No. 1$2 Virginia street, occupied by J. D. Young and family, and slightly damaged the house at No. 104, next door, occupied by MT. Prescott and family.
 A defective flue is thought to have been the cause. The roof was in flames when the family was aroused and practically no effects were re- moved from the burning structure.
 Departments Nos. and 2 quickly responded to the alarm and the fire was under control within a few min utes after the arrival of the fire boys and Chief Breiner.
 The burning dwelling was rented From. R. F. Ezell. Part of the loss on the household effects was covered by insurance.
 The a,arm was turned into the po- lice station and on account of this delay the departments did not receive the news until several m 'nutes after he flames were discovred.
 People should turn in fire alarm to the central girls at the tele- phone office" said Grief Breiner, af- ter of fire. "Unnecessahw delay was caused last night by the party who turned in the alarm. The proper way to get the news of fire to the department is to call central, tell her as near as possible the exact loca- ton, and wait until she has repeated it to avoid a mistake. She in turn gives it direct to my office as quick ly as possible. Myself and my men are always endeavCring to do the best We can and in many instances we can do quicker work with the aid of the public in this way"
