FIRES.
Partial Destruction Of the
Woodruff Block ON
Main street.
A Grocery Store Burned Last
Night ON the Corner of
Linden and Muiber-
ry Streets.

Between and 8 o'clock yesterday
morning, a dense smoke issued from the
rear of Messrs. r. d. Ward 4 Co.'s drug
store in the Woodruff Block, on Main
street, between Poplar and Washington,
The alarm bells brought the engines
speedily to the spot, and soon several
large streams Of water were playing
upon the burning portions of the build
ing. The inaammable material in the
store caused the flames to spread with
remarkable rapidity, and it was soon
evident that the interior Of the drug
establishment could not be saved. Soon
the floor overhead fell in with a crash,
and the work Of ruin, so far as Ward h
Co. we're concerned, was completed
Some Of the same parties occupying
rooms over the drug store had previously
removed the greater portion of their
effects. .,.-.
Adjoining Ward & Co. on the south
were Messrs. c. N. Case, jr., & Co., har-
ness makers. They removed much of
their stock, but suffered considerably
from water, breakage, etc. The south
end of the block was occupied by Messrs.
Woodruff & Co., carriage dealers. Their
stock on the first and second floors was
not injured; but the flames which swept
across the fourth floor from Wards,
through Cases to Woodruff's, destroyed
everything stored there. Several fine,
new carriages and quite quantity of
material were burned.
Mrs. F. M. Ickes, milliner, over Ward
& Co.'s, lost the greater portion of her
stock. Her loss is estimated at $1,000
no insurance. Judge ]. 7. Swayne lost
nearly all his library-partly insured
The books and surgical instruments Of q
couple of medical gentlemen, on the
second floor of Ward & Co.'S, were also
lost.
The block belongs to Mr.. Amos Wood.
ruff, who estimates his loss at 500, 900.
The only insurance on it is $4,000 in
the Desoto.
Ward & Co. had $4,000 in stock, and
the fixtures were worth upward of $1,000
more. They have $1,000 in the Hart
ford none in any other company. The
policy expired at IL o'clock yesterday,
and was to have been renewed with the
Peoples Comparatively for the Peo-
pies, but not for the Hartford.
Woodruff & Co. IS loss will reach seve-
raj thousand dollars. Their stock is in
sured for $4,000, as follows: Atna'
$40, 900; Hartford, $4,000; Phenix, $4,000;
Manhattan, $4,000; Globe, $4,000.
Case Il Co.'S stock is damaged to the
extent of $4,000 or $4,000 by water; in
sured for $4,000 in Rtna.
The entire loss will probably reach
$50, 200.
After 8 o'clock last night a frame
building, occupied by Messrs. j. t. Ell
lott & Bro, as grocery, on the corner
of Linden and Mulberry streets, was,
with contents, destroyed. The stock
was small insured for $500 in the
Etna. We have not learned whether
the building was insured, or to whom it

MAIN STREET PAvEMENT-A PROTEST.
Mr.. W. B. Greenlaw, by his attorney,
Major w. Messick, has complained to the
Board of Aldermen relative to the man
ner in which the pavement has been laid
on Main, below Union street. He asks
for an alteration of the grade on the
west side, because the pavement, as it
has been put down, with no drainage on
the west aide of the street, and no outlet
for the water, the centre of the street
being higher than the curb stones, has
already resulted in damage to the tenants
occupying the storehouses, by filling the
cellars with water, and will, if permitted
to remain as it is, greatly impair the
value of the property. The existence Of
the evil complained of will be attested
by all familiar with the locality, and, un-
fortunately, the pavement elsewhere on
Main street furnishes too much cause Of
complaint.

A NEGRO BURGLAR KILLED.-0n Sat
urday negro robbed the residence of
Frenchman in Fort Pickering, named
Mack, of some clothing, and was exc
cutting a hurried retreat when discovered.
Mr.. Mack, seizing q double-barreled

upon him to halt. No heed being given
his summons, Mack FREQ, and the bur-
glar fell forward on his face, having re-
ceived charge of buckshot in the side
of his head. BE died an hour afterward.
Mack surrendered to the authorities, but
