A tire was discovered in Jarvia Si
Harl's livery stable yesterday evening
just iu time to prevent the stable from
being burned, Some one had evidently
dropped a match after lighting a cigar,
which ignited an old robe that was sat
urated with oil. Within a few moments
the whole oflice would have been arlaxe
and the structure would have burned
like tinder. Why wouldn't it pay to in
corporate and put in a system of wator
works? Why should we wait and ex
perience tho same thing that nearly
every towu teas, that has neglected put
ting in a water works system until they
burned down two or three times?
tire once started in this town would
make a dean sweep.
