Saturday night at about 11:0 us
1. P. Johnson, a motornoer of the llnli
son lino, was passing Captain Blair's
residenoo ho noticed smoke uscending
irom the rear ol the residence but did
not think the houso was nn (irn until
after ho had passed some distanoo. He
then saw that tho house was nn firo.
and rapidly backing his car ho soon
arrived at the residence and gayo the
alarm. On account of a savage do"
ho was unable to enter tho yard for a
few minutes, but suooeeded at last in
arousing tho family. Captain Blair
had been settincr ur with .1 verv sirfe

him that the houso was on ti. Mr.

Mrs. Blair got the other children out.
It was a narrow escape for the whole

minutes after they got out.
It was a long run for tho firo de
partment and it was impossiblo for
mem to arrive in time to save tho
residence, though the kitchen and all
out buddings wero saved. Only a small
amount oi furnituro from the front of
tho honso was saved.
Captain Blair had 5500 insuranoo

ured at about $G000.
The alarm was turned on at the
West End station by Mr. Herman
Strauss, who was on North Twelfth
street and heard the cries nf fire. r,H
saw the glare.

daughter, was to secure help for her
aged father. The picture represents
