 be done to save anything. The cause
 of the fire is unknown, but is thought
 to be the carelessness of some tramp
 as MT. Christopher says he has no en-
 emy so far as he knows. In view
 of the fact that fire destroyed the
 house of Edgar Andrews nearby only { 12 days ago, and the cause of the fire could not be determined, the people . of this section of town are getting to
 be considerably worked up over these
 occurrences.
