Clear FLEISCHER HOME IN CENTRAL POINT GUTTED BY BUZE CENTRAL POINT, Sept. 13. (Spl.) Insurance adjusters today surveyed the ruins of the flra that yesterday afternoon completely gutted the two story frame residence owned and oc cupied by Mr. and Mrs. Harold J. Fleischer on South Second street at Ash street. The house and most of lta con tents were considered a, total1 loss. Few household furnishings ware saved. No estimate was available yet of the approximate amount of damage. The house and furniture were partly covered by Insurance. The George E. Fox home across the way caught fire .on the roof but firemen quickly put the blace out It was thought Me flra might have been caused by a worn electric wire or lamp fixture. No one was at home at the time. Mr. Fleischer returned home about 3:30 p. m. and aa he approached the entrance a window In a front room burst outward and a ball of flame shot out. Mr. Fleischer ran to a fire alarm box and sounded the alarm that brought out the city's volunteer fire department. The fire, however, had too great a start to ha subdued quickly.
