A fire broke out in the residence of Dwight Bronson, on Jefferson street, on Tuesday morning last, at 9 o'clock, and before the fames could be subdued the building was partially destroyed. The building was a two story frame with a kitchen attachment of one story, the latter being entirely consumed and the main building badly damaged. The fire caught from a defective flue in the setting room. Mr. B. held policies amounting to $2,500 on the building and furniture, $1,900 of which was on the building, in the Franklin, of Indianapolis, S. A. Wilson Agent. The estimated loss on the furniture is $250.
