The (iracio Company had no night

into the adjoining wooden buildings

to be well in hand in the upper part
of the Gracie building. but a hack
draft sent the flames to every part of
the structure and for an hour threat-
ened to sweep through many nearby
buildings. The barns oi the Adams

and the automobile delivery wagons
were hauled out. Several firemen had
narrow escapes from being caught lag

Chief Sammie summoned as much ap-

building with lines of hose, the spray
from the nozzles coating everything
with ice. In this way, the actual tire
