very little and had no insurance. The
damage was heavy. The cause of the

by the cry of fire, and it was un
der such a headway when discovered
that the occupants had all they coult
do TO save themselves, but the firemeI
turned out quickly and the flames yer,
soon under control.

advantage on points over the Chicago
