FIRE

About o'clock yesterday morning, fire was
Mr.. VIM. Fl. Harrison, on Park street near the
lake; and before the engine could be got at work,
and the hose laid, the entire establishment, and
dwelling house adjoining, belonging to Mr.. Peter
Wagner, were entirely consumed. Mr.. Harrson's
loss is estimated at about $10O00-no insurance.
Mr.. Wagner's loss will probably be about $500
The origin Of the fire is unknown and differences
OF opinion were expressed about it. The owner
of the mill is OF opinion that 1t was the work of
an incendiary. The engineer claims to have made
the furnace OF his boiler perfectly secure and to
have swept back all shayings and wet down the
floor of his engine room in thorough manner
He says he is satisfied the building set on fire
by some malicious individual.
Much complaint has been expressed at the
length of time that was taken in getting water on
the fire. The two hand engines were useless
on account of the distance of the fire FROM the
water supply. The steamer was the dock,
the suction in and steam up in fifteen minutes
after the alarm but it was half or three quarters
| of an hour before the hose was in readiness for
work; and by that time there was nothing to do
but to keep the fire from spreading. When once
permitted to work, the steamer did splendidly.
| The TELEGRAPH does not wish TO Jay the blame
upon any particular department of the manage
ment; but it does seem as if more promptness
might be displayed in getting at work in such
cases. Better hose and more of it would perhaps
help to remedy the evil.

EDITOR TELEGRAPH:-On Saturday
the 4th inst, at Richmond, McHs nrT Co..
H., a walking feat was performed that
deserves at least u pa sing notice. On
that day purse of $50 was walked for
by five men. The distance was forty
miles, The track was around the hotel
square, and was exactly one fourth of a
mile. The winner got two-thlrds OF the
purse, the second best oneethird, and the
third man received his entrance money
back. Five men started, viz. Dan More
Of Genoa, Wis Nelson Steward Of the
town of Richmond Scott Warnemaker
of the village OF Richmond; Dan Boutell
of Genoa and Alfred Bonner of the
village of Richmond formerly OF Keno
sha and Bassett's Station.) Ofthese on
ly More and Stewart walket the whole
distance. Bonner gave out about the
10th mile, and 3outell fell on the track
on the SD mile. Warnemaker had the
nose-bleed about the 22d mile and had
to lay off about an hour, when he re-
rurbed again to the work and was on his
18th mile at the close. Dan More wae
the winner in b. 40 m. 80 Sec, Stewart
being only one round or one-fou-th of
mile behind. Stewart completed bis
10th mile in h. As m. 30 sec. Three of
the men walked mile in 10 m. So sec
More averaged 10 m. 50 sec.; Stewart.
Is N. az gec A large throng of people
witnessed the race and the best of feel
ing prevailed throughout the day. The
day Was very fogqv, with occasional
spells OF misty rain. The track was none
OF the best, and on that dav was quite
muddy towards night Not one of the
walkers had ever walked race before,
and their performances under the circum-
stances was remarkable. And equall
wonderful was the performances of Mr..
