wood room where the logs are chipped
into small bits before being carried

caused from friction of some OF the
machinery. The flames spread with
|frightful rapidity, and soon the
whole interior was raging, 1n ass. If

The alarm was given ana the Hose
company from the town was soon at
the scene of the fire; and the Cherry
River Boom and Lumber Company
sent train loads of men. as fast as
their engines could with safety get

effort the fire was confined to the one
wing OF the building, although the
Isulphite department was considerably
damaged. ,s'----55-S
The loss is estimated to be anv-
