Narrowly Averted Sunday.
Serious damage by fire to the First
'Baptist church was narrowly averted
Sunday morning when flames were dis
covered in the basement of the building

were immediately brougth to an end
and an alarm sent in to the fire de
partment. The chemical apparatus
from the fire engine was first called
into use, but it was found that this
.was not in working order so the largerj
hose had to be used. The fire was
quickly gotten under control and in a
fetw minutes was completely extin
guished. The dainage was mostly due
to the effects of water and smoke. The
amount has not been exactly arrived
at, but will run into the Hundreds of
dollars.
Although a large number of people
were attending the service, they made
