Small Fire at Leavitt's Yesterday

Late yesterday afternoon a small fire broke out on the second floor of Leavitt and Peirce's. The blaze, however, was extinguished before any appreciable damage was done. The firemen had to tear down a portion of a wall partition in order to prevent the smouldering flames from spreading. It is understood that the fire was started by a cigarette thrown on the floor.
