BRASS FIRES START
After Two Alarms. Chief liutton
Issues Warning
Warm weather and grass fires
seem to go hand in hand, and
Salem people should be especial
ly careful about throwing matches
or burning cigarettes where they
may light the grass. Fire Chief
Hutton said last night, after two
alarms had come in during the
day on account of such fires.
An alarm at 4:30 yesterday aft
ernoon called the equipment to the
foot of Chemeketa street, where
fire had started in the grass along
the river bank. By the time the
firemen arrived, however, the fire
had been put out by the efforts of
A. M. Spdng, of Spong's boathouse.
who fought it with a wet sack.
The cause of the blaze is unknown.
Yesterday's second alarm came
last night at 8:50, when residents
at Lee and Turner Koad set fire
to dry grass on a vacant tract
nearby. Someone going past, not
knowing that the fire was being
watched, and had been carefully
safeguarded, sent in an alarm.
Those who set the fire declared
that -they hadbeen given permis
sion to burn the grass, although
firemen pointed out that it is un
lawful to burn grass at night.
The need for an east side fire
station was evident last night, be
cause of the great distance the
fire equipment had to travel to
reach the scene of the blaze.
