The first call was at eight o'clock in the evening while the boys were at practice drill. The blase was above the boiler room, where rafters and roof were somewhat damaged, the department estimating the loss at >100. ---------- The second call was at four o’clock the next morning, the blase being in the fuel bin at the fir mill, but it was extinguished before the department arrived. The engineer for the early morn­ ing fire blew five short blasts on the whistle which is an emergency call. However it brought five of the Are boys to the city hall and they turned in the siren alarm then. The switch board in the office at the plant had not been left open and the engineer could not get his call through to cen­ tral.

Gould Steadily Improving J y The resignation of George W. Bry­ ant as city councilman was read and accepted at the regular meeting of the council Monday evening. Mayor Milne immediately named Dr. T. De La Rhue to fill the vacancy until the November election and the appointment was confirmed by the four councilmen present. A written opinion by City Engineer Gearhart that the city should retain the 40 acres it owns on Falls creek, up in neighborhood of the Rink Creek dam, was approved by the council and C. H. Martin’s offer of >100 for it was rejected. Mr. Gerhart’s state­ ment was that the water from Falls creek can be run directly into the pipe line between dam and the reser­ voirs and would augment the city’s supply. Pool, billiard and card room license was granted W. H. Fortier for Bill’s Place, and card room licenses granted S. H. Donsted's Pastime and Ora Allen’s Rex Tavern.
