SMAIL ON EIRE LAST WEDNESDAY Last Wednesday evening a fire in the borne of J. N. Small, in West Reynolds ville, called out the two Reynoldsville fire companies and filled the street with several thousand people for a half hour, but the actual damage nascomparitive ly small. An srtlole of clothing had been hung oyer the arm of a gas jet, and one of the joints of the gas pipe leaked slightly. It is supposed that the gas leaking below Ignited from the gas burning above and while burning set fire to the clothing. A bed near by, the carpet beneath and the wall paper wore burnt before water could be thrown on. The fire companies on the way to the scene turned back when the word came that there was no danger.
