making the necessary levy to take
care of the bonds, but very little is
left within the limitation, for OPP

M. f. Stewards House Damaged
BY Early Morning Blaze


The residence property of M. F.
Steward and family was damaged
last Friday morning by fire, which
was discovered about $3.50 O'Clock.
The early discovery Of the blaze by
Mrs. Steward perhaps saved the
property from being destroyed, al
SO the Steward bakery which is
close by. The fire started from an
overheated coal heater, which was
in an enclosed porch off the kitch-
en-. where the pipe, which was In
sulated with asbestos, went through
the ceiling. The prompt and eff
cient work of the firemen prevented
the spread Of the flames.
The damage is estimated at about
5000, covered by insurance. But
little damage was done to the con-
tents.
Two Scares At Franklin Hotel
The same night a broken gas
pipe at the Franklin hotel might
have caused very serious damage,
had it not been discovered when it
was. A frozen water line to a gas
water heater burst, and in so doing
the hot water tank emptied itself
and fell against a gas pipe break
ing it, and when discovered much
gas was escaping. However the
gas was shut off and no damage was
done.
Monday evening about 8 O'Clock,
hearing a sound as Of escaping gas
in the cellar, fire alarm was turn
ed in from the Franklin hotel. In
vestigation showed that it was an
other burst water line, and it was
water escaping, and not gas.
