Poolroom Gutted On South Earl Street

On February 7, 1910 at 1230 a.m. a fire was reported in the Charles Bittner Poolroom and cigar store located on South Earl Street. A fire of undetermined origin gutted the interior ruining all the stock and two pool tables. The firemen were on the scene quickly and managed to save the building from total destruction. A damage estimate was not available. The Vigilant Hose and Cumberland Valley Hose companies answered the alarm.
