MOVING TREES RING BELLS
People Alarmed Call Central to Ask
 Where Fire ls

The high wind caused waving trees on Church street to interfere with the fire alarm system. Wednesday night, and set the bells in the steeples of the Baptist and St. Mary's churches to ringing intermittently. The unusual ringing of the bells alarmed people and calls were frequent at the central telephone office. where inquiry was made as to where the fire was.
 The operator finally called Chief Thurston to find out what 1t all meant. As the tapper in the chiefs bedroom was silent, he knew there was no alarm of fire but dressed and, with Charles A. Thayer, superintendent of the fire alarm system. made an investigation. It was while testing the several di- visions of the system that one stroke of the bells was sounded. The trouble was soon located and removed.
