Tuesday morning about nine o'clock smoke was seen to be issueing from the row known as the "Smith deal Row" on Fisher street. The fire alarm which was first given since the fire bell was placed in position in the new Town Hall, was promptly responded to by our fireman. These stores were only one story structures, and were covered with tin. The fire originated between over head cealilig and the roof, over the nom occupied by Mr Sheppard. Owing to this fact it was impossible to get at the fire, until; it burned through the wall,s of the building. The firemen worked heroic ally to save the house, but it is a total wreck. Each of the stores were occupied at the time. The first room was oc cupied by Will Horah, who was conducting a furniture business n it; the second was occupied by Mrs. McGowan, the dressmaker; the third by Louis Lichenstein, tailor; the fourth by Dr. S. P. Wright, gpfteuOtlifit.pne by Lum les sustained any loss by the fire, as eveyming was remov ed to the fetreets before it gained niuou headway. The building owned by Messrs 3SL B. MUanless and J.
