The Hubbard Bee Hive Plant Slightly Damaged.

A SMALL FIRE LAST NIGHT

Last evening at 9 o'clock the fire department was called to the Hubbard Bee Hive factory on South Harrison street. The two story frame structure was burning briskly when the fire laddies arrived, but in a few moments six streams of water were playing on the fire and it was quickly extinguished. The damage will not exceed $200. The fire started from an overheated stove.
