FIRE.-About twelve o'clock on
Saturday night, building situated on
9th street, between Perry and Rock Island,
was discovered to bc on fire, and before the
engines could render any assistance, it was
entirely enveloped in flames. From this
house the fire spraed, to another Immediately
adjoining, which was also consumed. The
origin Of the fire is unknown, but it is more
than suspected that it is the work OF incen.
diarism The large building was owned by
Patrick Foley and was we'll insured. But
one fan 'ly occupied it at the time Of the
FIRE, and they cay that it was discovered
on the outside. The loss is between g., 900
and IS 900. The fire could have been ex-
tinguished had there been water to supply
the engines, but as the wells were all very
deep they could not be made available
The chief engineer had line Of buckets
formed which partially supplied the en-
gines.

enter houses on Saturday night. 10 one
instance the burglar had got the window up
but he was frightened away by the loud

scamps in this vicinity, and it would be
well enough for our citizens to keep sharp
lookout for them, and prepare to give the
fellows q warm reception.
