Baker stepped around tho the stomach, knocking his wind out, and bending him double. Hill then came and stopped them.

Fire! sounded out strong at 2 o'clock this morning, awaking every body. Hardly had the alarm bell finished ringing before tho engine No. 2 was out of tho station. The horses, anxious for some real ex citement after so long a rest, were only too eager to run to the spot. The what little there was, originated from a chimney in a building just to the north of Gear hart's corner, on Benton street below Second. Engine No. One was on the gronnd directly after No. Two's, but the 'hose was not laid as the fire was soon out About all that could be heard was the wild, frightened babel ot Chinese voices. A crowd soon collected but dispersed as quick lv. Chief ot Police Barn and the reporter went up into the houso to the place whero the chimney was that had burned out a little. It was found that more pipes ran into the chimney than it ought to have, and the dirt, dingy condition of everything offered a line chance for a fire if it once got started. Such places should be carefuly investigated by tho authorities and proper pre cautions be enforced to prevent what might easily bo more serious.

He moved that the chief of police be in structed to enforce the ordinance. Councilman Bergman thought it would be a difficult matter to enforce that ordinance. City attorney Curtis said there was a state law upon tho subject, and unless the charter con ferred power in that instance upon the city to legislate thereon, the ordi nance might conflict with the state statute The matter was finally re ferred to the citv attorney.
