CITY FIRE DEPARTMENT VERY
PROMPT IN ANSWERING CALI.
OF FIRE" AT TEA ROOM.

In answer to the fire alarm given
Tuesday afternoon, the city fire de-
partment promptly responded to the
call. 1t came from the Tea Room,
located across The Echo Building,
where flue not in use for some
years occasioned the trouble.
There was no fire at any time,
save in new range that had just
been put up. The workmen connec-
ted the stove pipe to what was
seemingly flue in working condit-
ion. The upper portion of the flue
had been removed from the top of
the roof and the opening built over
again, hence the smoke from the
range had no exit and filled the at
tic of the building. There was every
indication the attic was on fire
judging from the volume of smoking
coming therefrom.
Mrs. Chapman and Mrs. Nelson,
proprietors of The Tea Room, have
requested The Echo to express their
thanks and appreciation to the
many who came to their assistance
and to others who volunteered their
service and to the townspeople gen.
orally who were promptly on the
scene. The owner of the building is
also appreciative of the immediate
service of the gentlemen who climb
ed on the roof, located the ''lost
chimney" and found the trouble, and
did not leave until every possible
existence of fire was found not to
exist. Thanks also to Mr.. r. de
Montluzin who promptly responded
with the use of a Babcock appara-
tus and to the City Fire Department.
