An alarm of fire Monday morning at 11:40 was for a blaze in the home of Mrs. Kate Perkins on Main street on the east side of the railroad tracks. Mem beta of the family ran across to the home of I. H. Bingham and gave the alarm. By telephone the fire department was called out und a general alarm given. Ben Bingham, who happened to beat home, took the garden hose and went across to the rear of the Per kins home. He was joined a mo ment later by Frank McFarland. Together they climbed to the roof of the kitchen annex and had the Haines under control before the fire nieu arrived. The blaze was caused by a defective due, the fault being between the ceiliug and the roof. Shingling was torn away by the energetic young men on the roof, whose timely arrival prevented a possibly serious fire. The volunteer department arrived promptly ami made good time in laying a liue to the scene. There is need of a hy drant at the corner mentioned; for the first cart hnd insufficient hose to reach the dames hnd it been ueces sary and had to wait for the com pany, from across the river to get on the ground, before a stream could have beeu in action. - -- — ------ * Young Man Advanced. Edward Jacobson, who has been for the pnst thirteen months in charge of the freight and baggage department at tbe local depot, has been advauced to a position in the Portland general freight depart ment as clerk. Having proved his ability in the railroad service this young man has received due recog nition and advancement. All pro motion in railroad service is based on merit and the men who climb to head in railroad affairs are the ones who are found industrious and trustworthv. The advancement of Almighty did not send a thunder bolt to hurl that merciless million aire and his equally guilty com panions into eternity. G eo . T. A n o ell . How About Your Summer Vacation?
