damaged by fire at 3 o'clock this
afternoon to the extent of 81, 800 or
$4,000, while Mr.. and Mrs. Van

The fire originated either from a
defective flue or an overheated range.

around the range, which had fallen
into the cellar.
The fire company made quick
run to the NanHOorebeke home,

was soon drenching the fire. which
was entirely eXtinguished in about
10 minutes.

showed that in minutes more every
thing in the dwelling would have
burst into flames, as everything was
too hot to touch from cellar to gar

to find that it was his
house that was burning.
Everything in the pretty S-room

ance will not cover the loss.
