THREE FIRES IN
ONE DAY, DEPARTMENT
MAKES QUICK ACTION

The fire alarm is getting to be ;
pretty regular thing the past two
weeks. Twice the department wa.
called out last Sunday, and once q
fire was extinguished without calling
for assistance.
At eleven o'clock Sunday, a fire
was discovered in the feed yards al
the Idaho Alfalfa Milling Co.. pro
baby caused by spark from an o. S
L. locomotive, The boys were quick
ly on the ground with the chemical
engine, but found it not necessary to
bring it into action.
In the afternoon fire was disccy-
cred which threatened destruction OF
the Snake river bridge. north of Pay
ette. This was believed to be caused
from spark from burning rubbish
near the west end of the bridge as a
heavy wind was blowing from that
direction. The department arrived
in short order and but little damage
was done. The third fire took place
at tho court house when one <of the
electric wires in some manner set
fire to the awning to an upstairs
window, then fell to the ground set
ting fire to the dry grass and litter
for hundred feet in length where
the wire lay on the ground. This

Allen Stegall, who called an electri-
clan TO take charge of the wire, then
with a few buckets of water, extin-
guished the fire. Another fire not
reported was that Of the P. E Short

fire was discovered in the roof from
a de fectieyceimyhn etaoin shriluvb

action, but little damage was done.
Another fire that should have been
published in last weeks issue. was
the large home of ]. L. Smith. on Sew
enth Avenue North. March 9Th. which
occurred at five A. NJ. The first real
alarm was given by the faithful dog
which was left in the house, set
up a howl when he discovered the
blaze. The department responded
quickly to the call Of the siren, but
found a very stubborn fire to get
under control, it had followed the
partitions in every direction. practi.

the building. only reaching the out
side around the chimney in the kitch-
