graph Company's Office, then the fremont

in Its fated path-until II flung itself
upon the great Union depot with its
spread Of buildings, and had sacked With its
cremating arms the corn-stored grain ele-
vators by the lake and river side. Again il
met the water and again it leaped them
landing on the north side Of the town. Here
it had nothing to stay its steps. Wooden
honses were but fuel in its way, and greedily
It enveloped and devoured them. On
ward for . mile Il stretched
as the day broke, fear before
and ruin and ashes behind. Animals
burst forth from keeping and rushed blind
among the flames, adding to the terror Of the
scene as they gave forth their cries Of dread.
The homeless began to multiply in number
through the blackened light of morning that
paled but did not subdue the flames. A hor-
rid thought flashed to the mind OF all. ''The
water works are in danger II the wind lives"
Up to Chicago avenue the fire ragged

was that none could tell how many. Can II

south ono seething, recking sea Of
fire, Il went and suddenly the water
supply failed. II was said that the
water works were burned. II was denied,
rcaOirmed and again denied. The men in
power, with ths Mayor at their head, were
acting with the greatest energy. To the
other cities Of the West went forth cry for
aremen, and one and eli the cities responded.
To the world went out the simple tragic
demand, which, In its breyity and pith alone
tells its narrowing story ;-"Send us food
for the suffering. Our city is in ashes"
Houses were blown down that the fire might
be arrested, but II seized on the debris and
burned that too. Would the whiting wind
