Shortly before one o’clock this
afternoon an alarm of fire was
sounded, caused by the burning
of the SchiiTer residence on Res
ervation avenue, above Fifth
street. When the alarm was turn
ed in the interior of the house,
a story and a half affair, was
wrapped in flames. At the time
a high glacial wind was prevail
ing and the fire boys lost no time
in reaching th^ burning building
and soon had a stream playing ou
the flames, which were quickly
brought under control.
The building and furniture,
which is almost a'total loss, was
the property of Chris SchiiTer,
and was occupied by Mr. Mulroy,
of the road commission, who took
the house when Mr. Sidney L.
Carter left, for the outside during
the early part of the winter..
There was no one in the house
at the time; Mr. Mulroy being of
the impression that the flames
were communicated to the lhce.
curtains from the stove. The:
building is almost a total, loss and
cost, when built, approximately
$600. The contents of the struc
ture, which were ldst, is estimat
ed at about $ 500, including a fine
fur ^rohe. ,t ■ ' . i<
