Water Street Fire
Saturday Evening

The pumper answered still alarm
for a fire in the third story Of the
brick building. 253 Water street at
eight o'clock Saturday evening. The
fire was of unknown origin and
started in ono of the rear rooms. The
| upper story is rented by John Hill
bert, proprietor of the Johnson
House and used as quarters for
! some of bis hotel help. John Sui
Ivan, tho night porter was asleep
in one of tho rooms at the time and
was with difficulty aroused and taken
to the open air. Chemicals were at
| first used but it was soon seen that
the fire had gained too great n head
| way for this to be effective and
Chief Drisko ordered line of hose
| laid and used, and the fire was soon
under control. The loss is several
| hundred dollars.
, The floor below was occupied by
, DR.. c. w. Alexander and DR.. G. G.
Farrell. and these offices suffered
severely by water. on the street
| floor are the stores of Miss Eva NJ
| Dulac. mlliner and J. II. Gingrras,
! fruit store. These stores were also
somewhat damaged by water. Miss
Dulac losing quite heavily. The loss
is covered by insurance. The build
ing is owned by Mrs. c. ]. Bragdon
and is covered by insurance.
The reporter is not trained fire
! fighter hence his judgment prob
ably is not as valuable as some, but
as the Gardiner Fire Department
appears to be on the grill in some
quarters. it is probable that some
will consider that the fire was poorly
| handled. Probably some will say
that the blaze should have been OK
| tinguished with the chemical and
| that water should not have been
turned on Possibly some will think
that even the chemical was not nee
cssary. To the reporter it appeared
as though the fire was exceedingly
we'll handled.

Religion must inspire patriotism
and the individual must carry his

not blind, but active forces for good.
