Firemen Look for Fire
The continuous blowing OF the nre
siren Tuesday morning about nine
o'clock caused many people to think
that a large fire was in progress.
The report when first sent in stated
that the stables of F. P. Billings
were burning but after arriving at
the scene it was found to be a Chin
ney fire in the dwelling next door.
Chief Cain investigated the call ana
the people at the home stated they
had made no call for the fire depart
ment. 1t later developed that an en-
ployee of Mr.. Billings became exclt-
ed, fearing that sparks might ignite
the straw in the barn yard and has
tiIy turned in an alarm. No damage
resulted at either place-the t1remen
soon returning to their quarters.
