iNAPIEK-, December 8. The largest fire which has occurred hert for several years broke out about two inmates to 12 this evening, in offices lised ac a shorthand and typewriting school by Mr C. E.

It has now caught' the shop of Messrie 1 William Bros., oil and colour, merchants! but is being got under, and will probably be prevented from spreading &ny further. Both Walkers's and the Tyser office are , owned by Mrs Robert" Dobson, and are insured, as far as can be^learnt, for JE2OOO, but the loss will probably be -over that amount. ' ■
