J. M. Jones's Residence. An alarm of fire was rung In about 8 o'clock Sunday mornlrg from box 6 at the corner of East State and College "Udets tor a blaze in B. J.

M. Jones' residence, 80 East State street. The department quickly responded, and discovered a small blaze in the celling of the billiard roox, which is in the southwest corner ot tne second story. The family had seen the smoke in the room, but had some difficulty in locating the lire until it broke out of the partition near the floor in the guest room above. The blaze had not gained sufficient headway to require the use of water, and the" tire was put out with chemical extinguisher and wet cloths, the blaze being subdued In a very few mlnutei, although its location in the ceiling and partition made it necessary to work some little time to extinguish all the places thit mijht smoulder and break out anew.

The damage done by the fire itself was not extensive, perhaps 5o, but thelroums'were'ulled with snooke.and it will be necessary to reBnish the billiard room and guest chamber. Mr. Jones stated to an Argus re porter that he wished to express his appreciation ot the promptness shown by Chief John, Wahlen and his men in getting to the fire, and also of the care they used in handling it to do the least possible damage to the room and its contents. He could give no estimate as to the anount ot tbe damage. The fire Is believed to have started from the fire place In tbe billiard room, ant probably had smouldered for some time, for the fire had not been lighted In the fire plaoe since Saturday evening.

28 NORTHFIELD. 8 Wild Runaway For Montpelier Team at The Close. A fair sized crowd witnessed tbe game which was plated in the Y.M. C. A.

gjmnaslum Saturday evening between the basket ball teair.s of Montpelier and Northfield nigh In which the former won o'it by a score of 28 to 8, after which a game which ran all the way from a closely contested Beht at the beginning ot the second half to a wild runaway for the Montpelier team at its nlose, when tbe game resembled "tiddley winks" more than basket ball. The Northfield aggregation came to this city by team, and brought a good sized bunch of "rooters" with them, but were late in aniviug on the scene, so it was 8:45 before the whistle blew foi the game to begin. It started oft with a rush, both side playing fast bill, and for a time neither side was able to score, but finally Northfield popped the ball In the basket and Dog river stock went up for a few minutes, but suffered a relapse when Montpelier followed suit a tew minutes later. Northfield stuck pluaklly bv how ever.and at the end of the first half, although they had not Increased their score, they had held tbe locals down to 5 points, leaving the score 5 to 2 in Montpeller's favor. Probablv tbe most interesting five minutes of basket ball seen on the floor this season were the first five minutes of the second half.

A foul was called on Montpelier and was neatly throws by Northfield, and a moment later they followed suit with a baskot, tying the score. With things in this state'the excitement was tremendous, both sides cheering their respective teams to the utmost, bat just at this point, Korthfield's downfall began. Montpelier suddenly came to life with a snao and rolled off seven baskets In a row, about as fast as the soorer could chalk them down, Northfield succeeded in getting one more basket and also threw another, foul while Montpelier made their seven baskets eleven and threw one foul, making the final score 28 to 8. Northfield played a good game until nearly the middle of the second halt, tbe defense being especially strong, but their shooting was rather unsteady and wild. Long shots seemed to, be their favorites, and a number of times they hurled the ball nearly the whole length of the floor at tbe basket Montpelier played a steady game throughout, especially In the second halt and Captain Cull en showed uo especially well.

The lineup ot the two teams was: M. H. S. N. H.
