WEDNESDAYS FIRE.

On "Wednesday evening, between
six and seven o'clock, the fir
alarm indicated trouble in Che See
ond District Quickly following
the district alarm, "geueiai
alarm was turned in. Those Wha
hurried to the street to learn the
cause did not STOP to indulge Ia
gucsses or questions as to lOca-
ton OF the iire--it was Very ap-
parent that the citN's power plans
itself was threatened The fire
men made a new record for them
selves, botff in the time OF getting
to the scene Of action and in the
splendid manner III which they
handled tho fire.
The fire developed under the
roof of the residence OF Mr.. H..
H. Blak kesley It's cause is not
clear 1t made its appearance on
the outside at the point OF juno
ton of the roof of the main build
ing and that OF the ell, which is
considerable distant from the
location OF any chimney in which
there had been any recent fire.
There were no electric wires about
that part Of the building. The di-
rection OF the wind, blowing dl-
rectly towards the plant rom the
burning building, makes the theory
of sparks untenable.
How long the fire had been burn
ing before it made its appearance
on the outside OF the root is a
matter OF conjecture. But 1t Is
quite certain that it had been in
progress for some time The oc-
cupants OF the house were not the
first to gain the information. The
office of the superintendent and
Secretary of the plant was located
in ono of the front rooms OF the
building. Judge Brown was at
work at his desk at the moment,
unconscious that serious trouble
was rapidly developing over his
head and that "cOnfusion, worse
confused" was Immediately It
hand.
The firemen responded to the
call with a prOmptitude worthy OF
the highest commendation. -Four
streams of water We're soon at play
on tho burning building. One OF
these streams came directly from
the big fire pump. In a very few
minutes the fire was exGnguis,hed
the whole damage to the building
having been accomplished before
the water was turned on. The ROOF
to the ell and that of the rear half
Of tie main building sustained the
principal damage by fire.
Mr.. Blak kesleys loss is partially
covered by insurance.
