The barn belonging to the house
occupied by Albert Lilly was burned
to the ground at noon Sunday. The
! fire was set by children who were
playing with matches and owing to
| the dry condition Of the building
spread very rapidly. One of the
/ children had his foot badly burned
while trying to stamp out the flame,
when it started, but the others es-
capped injury The loss was partial
ly covered by insurance.
/ 1t is evident that little attention
has been paid to the notice asking
that chickens be properly confined.
There is a city ordinance covering
this condition which prescribes fine.
! If proper restraint is not put on the
chickens the City Council will be
compelled to take action to enforce
! the ordinance. This matter must
have the immediate attention of all
poultry owners.
