Fire Burns Chicken
House and Chickens.

About 4:30 Friday morning of
last week. fire destroyed a chick
en- house on the Afford plac e
just south of the c. & S. tracks
between west 9Th and 7th streets.
The place is now occupied by
Wallace Evans, who recently
moved from J. S. Molet's place.
About three dozen chicke ms
ard several rabbits persisted in
the flames.
Fortunately cow and year
ling calf which occupied a shed
adjacent to the chicken house,
also burned, were rescued by
dextrous effort.
The origin of the fire IS I'M
known. but it is evident that
some of the chickens had been
stolen and it is believed that the
chicken thieves probablys were
smoking cigaretts or else proba-
bly, set the fire to cover up their
crime.
The buildings were about 80
feet long and s feet wide.
The Ma,oney boys ran down
and got the hose cart and took it
to the scene, and Central having
been notified, called Edward
Richter, captain of the fire de-
partment, and Arthur Kalcr and
c. NJ. Duncan, who took his Ford
truck and hauled the chemical
engine to the scene of the fire,
but all arrived too late to accom-
plish much good.
Night Waterman August Boeh-
mer and Willie Richter also went
to the fire in MIR. Duncan's car.
1t took three men to pull the
chemical engine after the car,
and it was quite a task in which
Edward Richter complained of
nearly freezing his hands cramp-
ed about the handle of the chemi.
cal machine.
There was no time to sound
the general alarm, but Captain
Richter says he thinks the entire
company should respond on all
occasions as it is not always GER
tain how bad the conilagration is.
The Enterprise went to press

better their condition, am taking
the liberty of bringing to your atten-
ton the fact that there is an ever
increasing demand for young clerical
men, stenographers, craftsmen and
all kinds of mechanical men in our
city. Especially is there a demand
for Young men who have had High
school education and who are not too
particular about the salary at which
they start, but are more interested
in where they are going to finish.
For this class of men there is a splen-
did opportunity. A young man who
has confidence in himself is always
desirable and would experience little
or no difficulty in securing employ
ment.
ANY Young man coming to our
city should be able to finance himself
for thirty days, as it, possibly would
be from two to four weeks before he
would have a pay day. l hope you
will bring this to the attention of
your membership. Any further in
formation which you or your mem
bership may desire will be gladly
given on request"
