Joseph Turks New Bungalow
Has Narrow Excape
From Destruction.

The beautiful new o-room Lun.
galow on Ganahl Street belong
ing to Joseph Lurl was badly
damaged by fire early Tuesday
morning. The fire was first
seen by Mrs. Anthony Luke
fahr at about 1 80 and she mott.
fed the neighbors and the fire
alarm was turned in and the fire
engine was soon at the scene.
BY quick and heroic work the
fine new building was saved
from total destruction. Several
holes we're burned through the
wall and ceiling which must be
rebuilt. The garret and the
rafters were badly burned and
will require lot of WORK. The
carpenters, who work there told
us that they consider the dam
age at $500, but to put every
thing back like it was would cost
considerable more. If it had
not been for the metal roof which
kept the flames confined, the
building would have been re.
duced to ashes. The worst
feature is that Mr.. Lurk had no
builders risk rance. and
whatever loss there is falls upon
his own shoulders.
The origin of the fire was
spontaneous combustion. Mr..
KOennicker was at work stain
ing the doors and door facing
and Mrs. Lurlk was wiping uU
the drops of paint which fell on
the floor. The rags which she
used for this purpose she threw
into a ballel of shaving which
was standing in Il small side
room. In the evening the dOol
was closed which made the little
room alright. The oily rags
got hot and combustion follow
ed which caused the blaze
