She noti- fed John Gula. proprietor of the mar ket who ran to the Chemical house No. 3. on Sherman street. They had a line of hose on the fire in short order and had the fire extinguished in a short time. The bell alarm was sent in and the city companies responded. The auto chemical sustained a break in the universal joint of the shaft on Washington street near the Soldiers monument. The auto was lowed to the station and repaired.
 The damage to the house was small and was covered by insurance. The building is owned by the estate of John H. Cunningham.
