FIREMEN QUICKLY CHECK
FLAMES IN CENTRAL ZONE
Prompt Discovery of Early Morning
Fires Prevent Serious Damage.

Two fires during the early morning
hours summoned frcmen in the central
part of the city, but in each case the
prompt discovery prevented serious
damage.
The first fire occurred shortly after mid
night in the shop of William Miller. a
manufacturing jeweler, 721 SAMSON street.
While the origin Of the blaze is unknown
it started beneath an asbestos work
bench in the rear Of the store and the
prompt work of tiremen of Engine Com
pany No. 80 prevented the flames from
spreading to a safe nearby in which $4,000
worth of diamonds and jewelry were
locked.
Hundreds of peanuts got an unexpected
roasting when fire started in the five-
story building of Lummis & Co., l4S North
Delaware avenue. Lieutenant Mcbride,
OF the Fourth and Race streets station,
who was making round OF his district
discovered the fire as he was passing the
place and sent in an alarm. The flames
were confined to the first floor, and the
members OF the firm say the loss Is trifng.
