FIRE BUG GETS
INTO BUILDING

A fire in an empty building on
Scmers avenue, which appeared to
be Of incendiary origin, was the
cause for the fire department be-
ing called cut at 8 o'clock Tuesday
evening, but their assistance was
not required, as the fire had al
ready been put out by 81 bucket
brigade before the department ar
rived on the scene.
The fire had been started in a
pile of old clothing in the corner OF
a room. but it emitted a great deal
Of smoke which was noticed by res
idents in the McKeen addition who
telephcned the alarm and then went
to put it out by carrying water from
the nearest residence. which they
succeeded in doing as the
fire had only been burning a short
time.
The rags had been piled up in
one corner Of the room where the
ceiling was low and had good
start in the wall paper and the par
tition. The building has not been oc'
cupied for over a year and was left
open. It was formerly used by a
number of Italians who passed a
winter here. No one had been no
uced around the bdilding OF late. but
It was evident that the fire had bee
set by some one. because from the
nature Of things it could hardly hav
started by spontaneous combustion

CITY COUNCIL HAS
A WARM SESSION
Tho appointment of a Water Rent
Collector Is . Hard Conundrum
for the Council to Solve.

The city council held a special
meeting last evening to clean up
the work before the new council
takes hold Monday night. and more
especially to make appointments to
look after the various city works.
B. F. Cheevers. formerly city
pumpman, in addition to looking af-
ter the pumping station which has
been made am automatic affair since
the installation of motor will also
be sewer inspector and water in
spector.
The idea of the Mayor and some
of the alderman was to abolish the
office of water commissioner and
appoint some person to be collector
of water rentals exclusively. The
matter was discussed at length and
various views Were expressed as
how to get this work done in
the most economical manner, and
was the cause for some friction
which caused the mayor to get
warm under the collar and he flat
ly declared to the council that he
would fight the appointment of Mr..
Greiser to finish. The matter was
finally left over until the next meet
ing and the clerk was instructed to
see several parties who had offer
ed propositions for collecting the
water rentals, and get their best
figures for doing this work.
