SMALL FIRE DAMAGED OLD ACADEMY BCILDfNG Another small blaze occurred here last evening when one of the old academy buildings on east Webb street was slightly damaged. It was the building at the wept end of the grounds and It was found to be on fire about 9 o'clock last evening. George O'Danlel happened to be passing the old buildings at that time and finding the old school house on fire gave the alarm and tried to quence the blaze with a bucket of water. However, the fire had gotten under too much headway and It re quired the fire department to hiyidle the blaze. The central companies and No. 6 were called out and sdon had the fire out. There Is much mystery surrounding the origin of the fire. It may have been started maliciously, while an other theory is that rats carried matches and other combustible rub bish into the place, thereby causing the fire. The tract of land on which the buildings are located belongs to the school district, but the buildings are owned by J. H. Lawrey and Peter Medernach.
