TWO NEAR-FIRES CAUSE ALARMS

Unnecessary to Have Called Department for One But Other Had a Bad Start. Two alarms of fire, one Monday evening and the other this Tuesday morning, caused the usual amount of general uneasiness. The first was sent in when an overheated stove in Ernest Ramey’s house in the northwest part of town set fire to the lace curtains. Ernest heard his wife cry out and he did the hero stunt by pitching the offending stove out of the house and smothering the curtains out. Some one sent in the alarm, w r hich was not necessary. The fire engine did not turn out, word that the fire was under control having reached the central office almost as soon as the alarm. Several members of the company were on hand, including the always ready Morris Moloney. This Tuesday morning shortly before 10 o’clock the Robert Michal property, occupied by the family of J. West, corner of Cullen and Rutsen streets, was discovered on fire bygone of the West children. The alarm brought the department out in a hurry. Again Morris Moloney was About the first one on the scene. He was in town in a buggy and hauled Harve Robinson and Carl Wood and a couple of chemical extinguishers to the scene of the fire. The flames had eaten a hole through the kitchen roof and in a short time would have caused lots of trouble. The chemicals soon subdued the fire. The hole that burned through the roof was large enough to let a man crawl through.

SUPERINTENDENT PAYS FOR BRIDGE.

Action Brought by John and Frank Schroer Gets Quick Action in Circuit Court. The Republican last week contained an article about a bridge that was out in Barkley township and that was so poorly marked that it almost cost the life of a Rensselaer physician and a trained nurse. The bridge was out about three weeks and John and Frank Schroer last week brought an action in the name of the State of Indiana against William Folger, trustee of Barkley, and Willis Hurley, road -supervisor, to compel them to put the bridge in. Mr. Folger had contended that the county should put the bridge in and the commissioners would not do it. The case was heard by Judge Hanley Saturday. He made County Superintendent Osborne, who was the superintendent of the ditch, a party to the action, and directed that he have the bridge reinstated and charge the expense against the ditch, which will prove satisfactory all around and is certainly putting the cost in the right place.

Judge Vanatta in Marion . Case Reverses Circuit Court.

Judge Robert Vanatta of the Grant Superior_je6urt has handed down a lengthy decision in a Marion liquor case, involving the right of the county commissioners to go behind the returns of the option election held in that city. The case is now back in the circuit court as a result of Judge Vanatta’s decision, and Judge Paulus of the circuit court is virtually asked to reverse his own ruling wherein he held the appeal of the “wets” from the decision of the county commissioners should be dismissed on the. ground that the commissioners had no jurisdiction in the case. The case has been in three different courts and has become more interesting since the recent decision of the supreme court that the commissioners had a right to go behind the returns.
