Quick and effective work by the Fire Department held the flames in one corner of the building and limited the damage to a small sum, probably not in excess of $300. The fire started from a large coal range in the cafe kitchen. The blaze ran up the wall through the ceiling and into a room above but it was put under control be- fore it could spread to other se tions of the place or to the Vuh-n-! tine Building adjoining. Both trucks were called and sev- eral streams of water were playing on the fire and threatened build- ings in record time. Damage to the other occupants of the build-| ing was limited to water in a few housekeeping rooms upstairs and a small quantity of water in Sal- oum’s Shoe Shop on the ground | floor. The building, one of the earliest erected in the community and for- merly known as the Opera House, | is owned by Mrs. Anna Winn. All| of the first floor is occupied by | business firms and individual and housekeeping rooms fill the entire second floor. A roof blaze at the barber shop on Third Avenue, opposite Hotel | Zynda, called out the Department at 6:30 p.m., Monday. It was ex- tinguished before material dam- age had occurred. - e W. C.
