man by the name of Patterson rushing
into the guard room at the police sta
ton and informing SergL Fox that
there was a fire at Hymie Gersteins
fruit store on Cony street. Officer Fox
inquired why he did not pulf in the
alarm and he replied he did not know
where the box was, whereupon the
officer rushed to the box on the front
of City hall and pulled i'll the alarm.
The firemen on rushing to the scene
and forcing an entrance discovered
that escaping steam and .,vapor was
filling the store and an investigation
resulted in finding that the expansion
tanks on the heating system had eX-
ploded. thus giving the kissing and
cracking sound together with the
steam that gave the impression that
the place was on fire, when Mr.. Pat
terson was passing the place.
No damage was done other than
that of the broken glass in forcing an
entrance. Chief Hunt sounded the

Macmillan Arctic Expedition in North
Greenland was in good condition in
April and amply provisioned for an
other year. is contained in a letter re-
ceived today by Mrs. Jerome Lee AL

WAS carried out of the north by an Es-
kimo, who sledged 400 miles to South
Greenland.
The party had just received news of
the European war, the letter said, and
were anxiously awaiting the arrival of
a ship. Everyone was we'll save Pro-

Waterville Team Confident

The Waterville bowling team reports
itself as not in the least discouraged
by its defeat by Augusta Thursday
evening and the boys say that they
will show some of the comeback stun
next week that will make Gardiner
wonder if they really know anything
about bowling. All the breaks were
against the local team in nearly every
string on Thursday evening and the
boys figure that they have got an
equal amount of luck coming to them.
The defeat Of Waterville and the vic
tory by Lewiston makes the race more
interesting, as it looked at first as
though Waterville was going to make
runaway race Of it.
