NDAYMORNING FIRES
Three Alarms Keep the Department
Busy All Forenoon.

Three fire alarms were received al
1.-THE fire department within an hour
/. this morning. The equipment was not
long back from the Harve Rhyns-
burger residence on North Market st.
when the alarm came in from the
home of Mrs. Lou +. Brown, widow
OF the late George Brown, No. COZ
Sixth avenue east and the truck left
Immediately for this location. This
fire was not yet under control when
the alarm again sounded for the Jane
Thompson property No. 316 north 4th
street.
All of the firemen were at the
Brown place when this last fire was
ANNOUNCED. Dave White was at the
station and Homer Little, former
truck driver had dropped in to see
how things were getting along. In the
emergency Homer sprang to the old
hose wagon. released the petrol hors-
Ies and the emergency equipment, that
Is kept standing ready for just such
a circumstance, was hurried to the
| Thompson fire on north Attn street,
with Little driving. Albert Roesch
and some others who were at the fire
house at the time sprang to the assfs-
lance OF Mr.. Little and an emergency
crew was instantly made up to go
out with the old wagon.
Fire at the Brown residence had
good start, originating from the roof
from defective fUe or sparks on the
roof. The building was badly damaged
and much OF the household property
was water soaked.
Fire started from bad chimney or
sparks on the shingla roof had made
big progress at the Thompson place
when the emergency crew arrived
and the building and contents suffer
ed accordingly. Both fires were we'll
handled however and it is understood
the losses are covered by insurance.
Report of baby being rescued
from the Brown building by one of
the firemen has been somewhat exag.
Grated. At the time the fire started an
infant was sleeping on a bed in one
of the rooms. Mrs. Willis S. Hatchitt
who resides near the Brown hcme
went to the burning building soon af.
ter the fire was discovered. The fire
was nowhere near the room in which
the baby was lying when Mrs. Hat
chit took the infant to a place of
SAFETY.
About 9:45 o'clock this morning, an
alarm of fire was turned in to the de-
partment, for single roof DAMAGE
at the. H. s. Rhynesberger house at
32S north Market street. Undoubtedly
the fire started from sparks from a
nearby chimney at the rear of the
house near the kitchen on the south
side and by the time the department
arrived the fire had gained a Roadway
that promised considerable trouble.
II was necessary to throw water and
the rear part OF the attic and part of
the second floor were damaged as
result. This portion of the roof was I
chopped away so that the fire could
be fully reached and put out. The
shingles were quite old and dry, SO :.
hat for a time the blaze was brisk /
The members of the family were not
1t home, when the fire occurred SO
he alarm was turned in by neighbors
and the value of the insurance could
lot be learned but the damage from
ire and water will reach probably /,
100000 Several rooms in the house /,
we're rented out to roomerS and their
oss if any is not known.

MORE CHICKENS TAKEN
Thieves Continue Operations in the
South Part of Town.

The epidemic of misunderstanding
which has aroused the ire of people
living in the south part of town
shows few, signs of abating and the
officers are just about at the end OF
their resources in dealing with the
Culprits. Fhey have good reasons for
believing that they know who the
thieves arc, but the big trouble is to
prove them guilty.
Saturday night chickens were tax,
en- from their rOosts at the homes OF
Waltei' Richmond, GIT SOuth Market
street, and August Peterson, 6tS
South A street. Constable Shaw was
notified Sunday morning, and in com
pany with Mr.. Richmond and Mr..
Peterson, went to the camp of Mex.
lean railroad laborer3 along the M. &
St L. tracks near the intersection of
Sixth avenue aad II street, where
several chickens belonging to Albert
West were located last week. The
officer demanded to be shown the
chicken pen of the foreigners, and
when his request was refused, he
backed up mis- argument with re-
Volver He was SHOWN the pen i'm
mediately. Several of the chickens
belonging to Richmond and Peterson
were identified and recovered but the
owners could not identify all of the
missing fowls and consequently re-
covered only part Of their property.
The Mexicans, some twenty or
thirty in number, steadfastly insist
that they purchase the chickens from
two boys, and they all hold to the
same story. ,t# - ~,
