Fire Wednesday.
A little excitement was
caused Wednesday morning
when the flre alarm was given.
The fire being in Singletary
& Scales Tailor Shop, caused
by gasoline store, but was
soon extinguished by Alto's
fire company. Ed Scales face!
aud hands were badly burned
in trying to extinguish the
flames. Were it not for the
loss of the fixtures 011 the in-
side of these old shacks it
would be the b.-st thing that
ever happened to the town for
them to burn then perhaps
the owners of the prope rty
would build structurers that
would not be a disgrace to the
town.
