FAMILY AWAKENS AS

Father, Mother and Children Flee Burning House Tn
 Harr;sville
Home af William Ssivas Destroyed
 By Fire

The cracking of flames in an up- stairs partition awakened the family os William Salvas. just before four o'clock, Tuesday morning. Father. mother and two small children were obliged to flee scantiIy attired to the yard of their home in HarrisvilIe. Little time was given to salvage household furniture or clothing. The fire department from Putnam res bonded to an out cf town call and was able to save adjoining property. The Sa'vas house was practically destroy ed, although the walls were left stand ing.
 The origin of the fire is unknown The family were all asleep when the cracking of the flames awakened Mrs. Salvas who awakened her hus- band and children. The flames at this time were making gcod headway in the upper story Had not Mrs. Savas awakened when she did there might have been resultant loss of life.
 Use Bumper
 Although there Is iiydrant not far from the scene, which is near the pumping station of the city water de- partment, the firemen put the No. 1 bumper to work and drew two good streams from the Little River, which furnishes this city with water from Roseland Lake. Outbuildings were saved and the flames were kept from nearby homes. There was no wind to handicap the firemen but it was near ly two hours before the 'sall out" was rung in.
 It Is estimated that the loss will go well toward $5,000, partially cover ed by insurance. The house was an old landmark and was large structure. Mir. Salvas, it is said, contemplates rebuilding, but will erect a much smaller dwelling than the one destroy ed.
