$ Firemen Had Hard Fight at Miller
Restaurant at Midnight.
r A night still alarm summoned tn
fire department to Miller's restauran
where the floor in the kitchen in tn
. rear of the lunch room was burning
/ brlskly. The blaze was discovered By
the man in charge just before closing
time and his discovery probably pre-
vented serious fire. The big gas range
had been going full blast during the pro
cess of roasting pork and the heat had
caused the floor to ignite despite two
thicknesses of zinc and layer of as.
bestos. An area of about two feet OF
flooring was burned before the firemen
were able to extinguish the blaze with
Implications of chemical solution, the
damage being slight. The firemen were
forced to disconnect the stove and a
boiler before they were able to reach
the fire and were at the restaurant near
ly an hour.

innings being played in steady down
pour of rain which made the spheroid

the Tenney team five runs in the first
three innings, but four errors, two walks
and two base hit by Farrar netted
seven runs for the association nine in
the sixth frame and gave them the
lead. The score by innings;
