A NARROW ESCAPE.

Rossland hada narrow escape last
night, and had it not been for the
prompt and efficient work of the fire de-
partment a great portion of the town
would have gore. The impression is
that the fire was of incendiary origin, as|
evidence of coal oil having been poured
about the premises: was quite apparent.
It is useless to threaten such desperate
characters as would set fre to the town

with the Jaw. An efficient fire depart-| 1

ment and eteraal: vigilance is the only

aafeguard. The police are discharging} j

their duty and keeping the city as clear
ae possible of the worthless, deperate
class, so about all thatcan be done to
guard against the “firebug”’ is for every-
body to keep a careful ‘iookout about
their premises, and remove as far as
possible the opportunities “for their
damnable work.

They might be lynched in the heat of
the moment by an enraged people, but
the class of men who will set fire toa
building know that and take those
chances, 2
