A Large Loss Saved liy the Timely
DiM-ovcrv iifllic Fire.
Rnrly yesterday morning the Ontario
and Western trestle was discovered to
he on fire, the llames having already
rained considerable headway. The
hhiKu was first seen by Conductor His-,
ted and trainman Skeels, who were go
lt:g home after coming in on the late
train. Tlie men saw at once the danger
should the llames get beyond control
and at once hurried to the Mitchell com
pany's house, where help was secured
und the fire soon put out.
II Is supposed that the blaze was
started by a spark from an engine, and
lull for Its timely discovery the loss to
I lie company Would have been very
large.

"veidng for throwing hand-bills rather
loo freely about the streets, lie was
wane d by a constable and on fullure t i

lovon which should not fail to have an
eii'ect upon those parties who throw
bills promiscuously about the streets.
