Tho firo had gained very littlo headway boforo tho depnrtmont arriyed and it was soon put out without nny great damage. Evidence in this caso would tend to show tho work of incendiarism. Thero was a large amount of kerosene all around tho building und no other cause for the fire can be discovered. The blaze started all at once and flared up from the first as though it had been set and fed with kerosene. Chief of Police Frazier will investigate tho case today and if possible run down tho cause. There have been many fires of un known origin in tho past few months and all have seemingly started in about the same way. F. I DIENER & Co. Keal Estate and Insurance.
