FIRE AT THORESEN'S

A fire occurred at the residence of
Edward Thoresen, Wednesday after
noon, during the high wind, and the
fire department responded promptly.
The hose was carried into the upper
story through window and was do
ing good work when a wagon was
driven over the hose, bursting it and
letting the water out in the street.
Very little damage was done by
the fire, but the house was saturated
and some breakage resulted from the
hasty removal of the furniture,
though it was made in more order
ly manner than is usual. Nearly all
the furniture was out of the house
before the water was applied.
1t seems that there was some de-
lay in getting the alarm turned in
there being lack of information as
to who to ring, and few moments
were lost in that way. Mrs. Thore-
sen and Mrs. J. F. Kinney got the
garden hose and attached it prompt
~ and some of the ladies from a
meeting of the missionary society
near by removed the light furniture
quickly. When the hose was ready
to operate another trouble arose get
ting the water to flow. 1t was there
but she could not get it to flow, and
she has been accused of being ex-
cited, for somebody else got it to flow
like a hurricane afterwards. When
Mr.. Thoresen got there he too was
excited but he "came to" when he
saw what lot of friends he had
lemptying the house and pouring
water. AS soon as the fire was out,
a lot of the ladies rushed in with
,brooms and scooted the water out of
, he upstairs before it had time to
soak up the floors and ceilings.
Thoresens say that if they must have
a fire they would rather have it hap
pen in Blackfoot where everybody ID
so nice about it.
The city government should keep
people informed as to who to ring,
h W to spread an alarm and how to
get the fire bell rung.
