A NARROW ESCAPE.—When the fire alarm sounded on Wednesday evening and the word pas'ei around 'It is the Organ Factory' people hastened thith- erward with the feat' thatthe immense buildings were amass of flames, and they were greatly relieved, indeed, to find that: it was more alarru than any- thing else. The tinsmiths had been putting a new tin roof on, and a sold- ering pot was left standing on the roof. It was thought that there was no fire in it, but the high wind fanned the dying embers into a blaze, and carried the sparks out of the pot. Seeing this someone gave the alarm. As the, roof was all tin, there was, in rea.lity, very little danger, but to those who did not know this. the tnatter looked danger- ous enough, and it might have been, had it not been discovered. At first many thought the alarm was a false one, given only for the purpose of test- ing the efficiency of the fire brigade. Mr Doherty has shown his appreciation of the firemen's promptness by sending them a cheque for $10. To the Editor of the New Era. DEAR SIR,—We wish to heartily thank the firemen and all who came so promptly to protect the Organ Factory from fire last Wednesday night. The rush of people to the factory grounds was really commend- able and we feel under obligations to them, especially those wbo scaled the walls and bronght the fire•pots down. We are pleased to say, however, there was no damage done, as the fire was strictly confined to the tin. smith's fire -pots, used for soldering on the roof. Very truly yours, W. DOHERTY & CO.
