firi Firel
Our city was saved, and that by a
miracle and hours of hard and hot
work, but A. A. Davis, of tho flour
mills, is tho loser by ubout 2i0 cords
of cord and slab fir wood. The fire oc
curred last Tuesday morning at about
1 o'clock, tho oi-iyiu cf which is un
known, but as usual thero aro no ond
of theories advanced.
This immsnjo pile of wood stood
about 60 feet west of the flour mill, and
only because the wind was favorable
can it be said that all that portion of
the city in the vicinity of tho fire es
caped devastation by tho terriblo
flames. Of coursa wo do not forget
that even though tho elements were
kind, tho mill and all property adja
cent would have burned ten times over
had it not besu that our citizens turned
out by tho scoro with buckets and
drained every well in tho neighbor
hood. How they did work with buck
ets rmd carpets and small hose until
broad dayligktl A harvest of blistered
bands and faces and stiff joints tell the
talc. Finally the Jacksonville section
well fire apparatus was sent for and
speedily subdued what was left of the
terrible tire fiend's handiwork.
What of Meaford's water supply?
There was none? No water in the
ditch for two days previous, and what
little thcro was" in tho tank tho fir?
boys made good uso of. Tho lesson
was a costly one to'Davis, the sufferer,
but perhars cheaper in the end.
Phoenix citizeus had ben given pcr
miasion to use for irrigating what lit
tlo water there was in tho ditch at this
season of tho year, providing they
would clean out tho ditch, and thus
Modford found itself almost in the
"soup," as the saying is. But there let
us be thankful all is as well as it is.
Wo will only add that there Is a cer
tain clique who on the:o occasions al
ways bold aloof from any good work
that might be rendorvd. They sit or
lounge around, making sido remarks,

"Gentlemen, evidently there an fire
bugs among us." Tho abovo remark,
and there suroly is reason for it, can
be heard on all sides in Medford those
days. Tho burning of Davis' wood,
which camo so near proving fatal to
our beautiful little city, aroused well
grounded suspicion that it whs the
work of malicious hands, but the straw
which broke the camsi's back was laid
on about midnight on Wednesday,
when flames were discovered on tho
cornor' of tho warehouse belonging
to the R -R. V. R. R. nnd
standing closa to their depot. Tho
lire was almort immediately extin
guished, consequently no damago re
sulted. That oil was used this timo
there is ample proof. An old' can
partly filled with whito lead was also
found on the spot, and this led to a sug
gestion that p jrhaps spontaneous com
bustion might explain away tho mys
tery, but this Is hardly satisfactory.
If human hands are doing this devilish
work, and should the perpetrators b
apprehended, woe botidn their fato.
