Fire and Alarms.

The superstitious maintain that
fires and other calamities occur in Sc
ries of three, and Newport concluded
such series Sunday.
The first fire of the series may be
termed the fire at Ex-Gov. Prouty's
house, the second occurred Friday
about 2 a. m. at J. E. Renihan's resi-
dence on Cottage street.
The household were awakened by
smoke which emanated from the kit
chen. The prompt response of the
hose company and the chemical en-
zine stopped what might have proved
a very disastrous fire.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The damage was several hundred dol
lars.
The third alarm occurred Sunday
forenoon when a citizen from across
the river attempted to mail a letter
in box Is of the fire alarm.
While even false alarms are expen-
sive, all agree they are preferable to
the others.
