He stated that an average of sixty boys dally visited the club rooms, and described bow well-behaved the boys are and how, of their own voli- tion, tbey have adopted houae roles and other governing laws which are not only creditable to an organisation of that kind, but would also be ap- propriate to an organisation composed of older and more experienced men. Mr. Duthie'suggested that every mem- ber of the Commercial association then present, at the adjournment of the association, should visit tho rooms of the Olympic club, sad, upon motion of Mr. Randlev, the proposition Was carried, and each member not only visited the club, but signified his In- tention to become an associate mem- ber of tho Olympic crab by contrib- uting tl aa special does for thatpnr- New President In Talk.

The building, which had caught on fire Is known as the West End Boarding club, and is run by Mrs. E. Kilby. The Are was caused by an overheated furnace. Mrs. Kelly went down at about 3:30 p. m. to tend to the furnace, and at 4:30 the blaze appeared. Within Ave minutes from the time the fire was first seen, the engine and truck from fire station No. 1 were on the scene. Fire Start* in Furnace. The fire followed the beating shaft upwards through the center of the house and had gotten a good start be- fore any water was thrown on the blaze. The firemen succeeded in keeping the fire from spreading to tho rear or front of the house, and the only damage caused to those parts was by the water and smoke. Boarder Suffocated; Is Rescued.

The wagon was able to proceed to the fire. Damage About $oOo. The damage from the fire aad smoke and water was estimated at about $600, of which $400 was on the furnishings. The damage from the water and smoke was greater than from fire, as the Are fighters managed to keep tho blase confined within so smaU an area. The building Is an old frame building and one in which the fire would spread very rapidly, so that the work of the fire department is especially commendable.
