FIRE
NIPPED
Prompt Action Of Fire Department
Squelehed Dangerous gituation.

A fire this morning in the Gem
County Vulcanizing Works threatened
the destruction of all the frame build
ings in that block, and but for the
prompt action Of the FIRE department
would have had serious results.
The blaze was started by the paper
between the rafters Of the building
catching fire when one of the employ
es of the vulcanizing works was try
ing to thaw out the water pipes with
a blow-torch. The flames quickly
travelled to the attic and roof of the
building, but was extinguished before
it had gained much headway. Very
little damage was done by the fire,
but water caused a good deal of dam
age to Mr.. Larkin's stock and to the
furniture and household goods of Ed
Holgate, who lived on the second
floor, and there was some loss to
the Ladies Hat Shop. During the ex-
element someone kindly (7) appro-
priated the money in the cash drawer

SPAN Of RIVER BRIDGE
GIVES way
Rotten Timbers Cause Nerth
Section to Partially Collapse
Traffic Stopped.

The north span of the river bridge
north of town, gave way Sunday af-
ternoon with q loud crash, and all
traffic was stopped. The floor in the
middle of the span sank possibly three
feet and there hung. One of the Ok
6 timbers supporting the superstruc-
ture on the north pier was badly
splintered and rendered practically of
no service. The cause Of the break
down was the rotting of the heavy
wooden girder beams. The decay
had taken place inside and thus had
escaped detection.
The break occurred at o'clock in
the afternoon. Walter Laidlaw was
on the south end of the bridge at the
time, and his attention was attracted
by the sound of swapping wood, as if
tree was passing under the bridge
and the branches were breaking off
as they hit the Yirders. Others near
the north approach also heard the
noise. An investigation was at once
made and the county authorities no
titled of what had happened. Notices
closing the bridge to traffic were
posted.
Monday morning, ]. H. Forbes, the
bridge builder of Caldwell, was sum-
moned, and with County Road Sup
ervisor Phelan, steps were taken to
repair the break so as to permit the
resumption of traffic. A frame
work of heavy timbers have been
placed underneath the center of the
sagging span and with jacks the
structure is being raised to its orig
inal position Resumption of traffic
will probably be resumed the first of
next week.
