MAKE TWO RUNS OVER
SLIPPERY STREETS

The fremen made two runs over
the slippery payements this morning.
The department was summoned at
l1:40 to the Rock sland branch OF
the Fred Miller Brewing company,
100 Sixteenth street. The office of the
building was repapered and the old
paper thrown into the cellar, where
1t caught fire. The smoke was very
thick and the firemen experienced
considerable difficulty in getting at the
flames and were forced to lay two
lines Of hose. Although the paper was
consumed no damage was done in the
cellar. The newly papered Office up
stairs, however, was badly smoked up
and will possibly have to be repaper-
ed. The loss will reach $50. At 1875
this morning the department was
called to the Rock Island Plow com
pany, only to find that false alarm
had been turned in.

MOLINE HOUSE IS
VISITED BY FIRE
Residence OF Albin Anderson Damaged
By Flames at Night to Extent
OF Nearly $500.

A fire at the Albin Anderson home,
1883 Twenty-fourth street, Moline, at
7 last evening resulted in damage to
the structure of between $500 and
$500. Blaze originated in the base
ment and was kept from spreading to
the first story, or the house would
probably have been completely de-
molished.
Fire supposedly originated in a pile
of kindling wood in the basement.
Heat from the furnace is the only
cause attributed The kindling was
dry and leaped into flames at once.
The fire department was called and
extinguished the blaze just as it
threatened TO make Roadway over
head
Furnace was damaged considerably,
as was everything else in the base
ment. A large supply of winter fruit
was spoiled. Smoke also filled the
house, damaging wall paper and paint
