Destruction of the Market House.

Ia, Dsturslly been the destruction of the Old
market house by fIe-a structure 20 very old
that the oldest inhabitants cannot fiN the exact
date when the first OF the ooDgeries Of SHEDS
was erected
twas a. first supposed that the fire was the
wUfk Of an inCendisry, and the fact that the
ire seemed to break out at different points al.
,Ost simultaneously would appear to give color
TO that theory. but the later investira-
tons lead TO the belief that the FIRE
was an accident, and originated in the
shanty occupied By a fruit dealer, who had a
Eight and charcoal ire in operation a short
time before the fire was discovered and at the
point where it first appeared. That the fire
should run through the building with lightning
speed is explained by the superstition that the
gas toOL ire from the PIPE. The old inner roof
o. the market was also a perfect tinder-box
calculated to ignite from spark along its whole
extent.
But. however the fire originated, the fact is
before Us that some four or five hundred deal
are thrown out of their places of
business and means of livelihood, and
we learn that perhaps three-quarters of
them are poor men, who are quite unable
20 sustain the loss and start again in business.
Here is an urgent call for the sympathy and
substantial aid of the community, and we doubt
not il will be promptly given. A subscription

woman named Myra Day. The sad al
fair occurred on Main street, between
Court and Madison, asd attracted no

aboat it was highly amusing as such
things are almost as common as cleo

from a pistol three shots, which took et-
feet in Ma. Banks head and ended hls
life. The misersble' woman is in jail,
