THE Evening Star. PUBLISHED DAILY AT FOUR O'CLOCK P.M. Resurrexi. SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1880.
As will be seen on reference to our police news, Andrew Carnie was this morning fined for not giving notice to the Borough authorities of his intention to burn rubbish in his garden. By not doing so, an alarm of fire was given on Saturday last, and the brigade turned out, only to be disappointed, and to return as the butt of the ridicule and sarcasm of everyone. These false alarms would not so often occur if people would only pay proper attention to the demands of the bye-law in respect to the subject. That law lays down that no rubbish shall be burnt in any open place in the Borough without notice is first given to the authorities. If this had been complied with last Saturday, ho unnecessary alarm of of fire would have been made, and the axle of the engine would not have been broken. The bye-laws must J)e upheld, and if they are properly attended to, little danger of falte alarms of fire will exist.
