What plight have been a bad fire broke out at what is known as the Ifv,'an Carriage Works on Sunday morning about 1 o'clock. Fire start- ed in the brick (building occupied by J. H. Walker, which is used for the manufacture of the New Borland Sulky, and originated near the heat- ing aparatus on the ground floor. Fortunately the fire did not spread through the building but went strafgtt up, burning a hole through the second floor and then up through the roof of the biulding. The speedy work of the fire brigade with site chemical engine soon had the blaze. under eontrol, so that little datnage was done and will be covered by in- surance. The steam fire engine was taken to the river and was i'n readi- ness in case of emergency. In this connection The Post has been asked by the head of the fire 'department to state that all members of the bri- gade who do not stick to their job until the entire equiitient is put back into the proper place, will come short when pay-day arrives. It in- variably :happens that after almost every -fire the strenuous work of winding the hose, etc„ falls to the every fire thhose,eta, falls to the r. e e lot of 3 or4 willing workers, while the majority of the brigade are en- joying themselves in the, "hay." lir'153016lla11tEd Chum) REV.
