Three Rivers, Canada's
Second Oldest City, Is
Fire Swept; 40 Houses
By Associated Press
Three Kivcrs, Que., May 3. Fire
which broke out in the business sec
tion here to-day, swept through a
number of stores and residences.
Quebec and Montreal tiremen re
sponded to a call for assistance.
By 11a. m., an hour after the tire
started, forty houses on Bonavenure
street, the main business thorough
fare, had been destroyed. The flames
spread to the nearby streets and the
families were compelled to leave
their houses because of the tremen
dous heat. The lire is reported to
have started in the Victoria theater,
which collapsed.
Three Hivers, an industrial and
manufacturing city of about 10,000
population and a port of entry, is 75
miles southwest of the City of Que
bec. It is on the Canadian Pacific and
Grand Trunk railways. Three Rivers
is the second oldest city in Canada.
It was visited by a disastrous tire in
1906 when half the city was burned.
Rutherford Man
Gets Compensation
Hjalmar Peterson, of Hummels
town, is held to be entitled to com
pensation for injuries recei'ved while
working in the Rutherford shops on
a Reading railway locomotive which
the company claimed had been en
gaged in interstate commerce. It
was also set up that nt one time tne
engine may have been engaged in
interstate and the next trip in intra
state traffic. "The engine upon which
the claimant was working at the tib'e
of his injury had been engaged in
both intrastate and interstate traffic,
but at the time of the accident it
was engaged in neither," says the de
cision. The board has sustained Ref
eree Cummings and dismissed ap
peals in the cases of J. J. Canfleid.

Seasoned
Lumber
"PREQUENT neglect to procure properly
seasoned lumber is responsible for interior
trim of the house shrinking or checking or
wood swelling out of shape.
If the lumber is not dry shrinking of lum
ber not seen will cause unsightly cracks in
walls and ceilings.
We are as careful as we can be to give our
customers thoroughly seasoned lumber.
