OAKLAND FIRE FIGHTERS
RESPOND TO TWO CALLS
Automobile Destroyed-Chicken
House Almost Consumed.

The Oakland Fire Department an
swered two calls yesterday, one at one
o'clock in the morning and he second
at about two o'clock in the afternoon.
The blazes in both cases were extin-
guished by the chemical engine.
The chicken house at the home of
Mr.. Lloyd C. Shaffer on Pennington
street caught fire from some undeter-
mined cause and was blazing rather
strongly when discovered. The depart
,ment responded promptly and the fire
was out in a minute or two.
Automobile Burned.
A Buick sedan belonging to Clyde
Shipley, proprietor of the Oakland
Welding and Machine Co., caught
on fire early yesterday morning
on the driveway near the Mountain
Lake Hotel and was completely de-
stroyed. An alarm was sent in and
the Oakland department responded,
but arrived too late to save the ma
chine.
Marshall Brown, driver Of the car,
said that the entire underneath part
of the machine was on fire before he
noticed anything was amiss. The loss
is partly covered by insurance. A
short circuit in the lighting system
is thought to have caused the fire.
