start from a tree and go with an unsteady gait
to another, which he would grasp as though he
needed support to keep him on his feet, and all
the while kept moaning and muttering insane

to show that he had been assaulted in any way

Serious Alarm and Losses.


The people Of the Twenty-frst ward were terri
fed beyond measure about eight O'Clock last even

sixth street tower, followed Immediately by second
alarm, which told of danger and Of the necessity

was about east by south, but gusty and treacher-
simeon of sparks was only needed,
with the wind west or northwest to convert
the institution into a heap OF ashes. Prompted by
the emergency, the fremen behaved admirably, and
the flames inch by inch till halfpast nine O'Clock,
when the fire lulled suddenly, and the disaster was
quelled, with the total loss Of the building where 1t
originated and an adjoining building constructed
OF corrugated iron, also used by MIR. Vandyke.

by the fame than rick of hay in the open field
ignited by the descending bolt There is nothing
surprising in this, for most of these roofs
are only immense tinder boxes for setting
whole cities aHame. They make no preten-
sions toward being freproof for they are built
of wood, and are readily ignited either from
within or without. This is wrong so ap-
parent as to be criminal. Like the new build
ing on the former site of the HERALD establish
ment, now in course Of construction, all large
buildings should be as secure at top as at bot
tom, and the roof should rest only upon iron.
If this had been the case with 'the high Man
sard. overtopping all the houses in the vicin-
ity," seventy acres of Boston would not be in
ashes nor hundred millions of capital re-
duced to dust.

cautions against fire in our large cities, but

department., however efficient no supply of
water however abundant and accessible, not
even the admirable method finally adopted in
Boston, of undermining barrier against the
flames, is sufficient protection. What we
want is security against fire by making fire
impossible. To do this many of our
cities so laboriously constructed must in great
part be reconstructed. The tumble-down and
combustible buildings must disappear with
the narrow, crooked streets. It is o desperate
remedy, we know, and one not to be rashly or
carelessly undertaken, for it is like cutting
cancer out of the living, healthful flesh. In
either case, if the remedy is applied with wis
dom and skill, the result is beneficial The
sick man grows well and strong after the pain
full operation; the imperilled city becomes
secure and rich. If we had broad, wide streets
in the slums which centre at the Five
Points vice would retreat before the appre-
citation of property. Even the busy haunts
about Nassau and Wall streets would
become more valuable if there was greater
security against fire-security to be attained
only by ireproof buildings and broad thor
oughfarcs. Thus il. is plain that the interest
as well as the security of New York is in oblit-
Grating old landmarks and building new
city on the site Of the old. We failed to take
the Chicago lesson to heart, and now comes
the same lesson from Boston's misfortune 1t
may be our turn to suffer- as we suffered in
the great fire Of 1885, and as Chicago and
Boston are suffering now, unless we act upon
the warnings we have received.
