THE DRIER CATCHES ON FIRE
 
About 8:30 Tuesday morning fire was discovered in the Hogue Drier, by a Short 
Line Engineer who happened to be standing with his engine nearby, and who gave 
the alarm.  A crowd soon gathered and quickly applied water by the use of the 
private hose of the Boise-Payette Lumber Co. and also the City hose which was 
soon on the job.  Very little damage was done.  The fire was evidently started 
by some one who had been camping in the building as an oil stove and lantern, 
both still burning, were found in the building near where the fire started.
