FIRE DESTROYS
OLD BUILDING
, WO STORY STRUCTURE AT FOOT
OF GEORGE STREET BURN
,ElC LAST NIGHT.

An estimated loss CT $4,000 was su.-
tanned when the old tWo-story building
at the foot of George street owned
by John E. du Bignon, was destroyed
by fire last night shortly after i
o'clock.
The whole building was ablaze
when the call was sent in to the fire
department, and although by hard
work the fire was Immediately check
ed and the rest of tha buildingg saved
All except the framework ard par.
Of the walls of the wooden building
was burned. The building mad been
unoccupied for several years, n
Emanuel having removed his offices
some time ago, and 70 one else having
occupied the structure. The buildiIS
was very old, and in rather dilapi
dated condition.
The members Of the fire department. .
did excellent work in extirguishing
the fire, some of them climbing into
the second story windows with tn :
hose while the whole building was a
vefltaDle furhace, and with burning
planks and timber falling around them
fought stubbornly until the baze was
checked
The one who sent in the alarm
caused some confusion in the alar"l
signals by pulling the hook in the
alarm box repeatedly, whicn lnterfe :
ed with the registering of the box 10
catiCn at headquarters. Chi.f Harri-
song in a statement last night eX.
planned that the hook in Cne boxes
must be pulled but once in order to
give the alarm.
When the hook in the boxes is
pulled down one time, it sets the ma
chinery at the station which sounls
the alarm in motion, and the alarm
registers, but when the hook is again
pulled down, 1t breaks the electrical
circuit and interferes with the alarm
device" said Chief Harrison
"When the hook is pulled one TINA
it sends in all the alarm that can be
sent. If this will be borne In mimi
