Wiles got out of bed and heaved the burning bedding out the. window, spread his remaining blankets on the springs and resumed his slumbers. af The mattress fell betwéen the two buildings in an areaway about four feet wide and ignited the wall of the grocery store and flamed up the side setting the roof on fire. It had burned some little while before the fire alarm was turned in about 6:30 o’clock. The fire department responded promptly and after a desperate battle extinquished the flames. Damage was estimated at $300. Chief of Police W. G. Robson arrested Wiles and lodged him'‘in a cell beneath. the city“hall. Wiles, Robson charges, had been drinking excessively. He is 54 years of age’ and was born in Maryland.
