ground. There were nearly 500, and the
work of getting them out was one of great
difficulty and danger. Blinded by smoke
and frightened by flames, they kicked and
reared, and over one hundred had to hc
abandoned to destruction.
The three upper floors were one vast
sheet of fire. Two brick bulldings-one
liquor store and the other restaurant,
cut into the stable building on the corner,
were saved. AT this point in the stables an
immense quantity of hay in bales was
stored. When these caught fire sudden
bursting of the bands that bound the bales
caused an explosion that shattered the side
OF the building and threw the brick wall
into the street. 1t fell with crushing
force upon the ladder on which where Chief
Campbell, Fireman John Welsh, of engine
No. 8 and Fireman Henry c. Mount and
John Regain, Of the same company. Each
and all were buried under the smoking
mass, and shout of horror went up from
the spectators. Their comrades instantly
fell to the work Of rescue, and soon all were
recovered bruised, bleeding and insensible.
Mount had his skull and leg fractured,
and was also injured internally. He died
an hour afterwards IN the hospital
Regain had leg broken and was badly
cut
Chief Campbell and Fireman Welsh
were painfully but not seriously hurt and
remained on duty.
Hardly had the fircmen and spectators
recovered from the excitement caused 10y
the fall of the wall, when it was rumored
that fireman had fallen into the burning
building, but the muster Of the companies
later showed all men present except those
taken to the hospital. Soon afterwards the
walls on Fifteenth street fell with crash.
The flames leaped across the street threat
ening houses there. The occupants fed,
and thief, attempting to enter one, was
speedily nabbed and hustled off to the
police station.
The fremen now gave their attention to
the surrounding property, the stables being
a mass of ruins. BY 10 o'clock all danger
of the fire spreading was over, and a num-
2 of engines were sent to their quarters
: Others remained, pouring water upon the
dying flames.
!. The loss is estimated at about $4,000
: insurance $919,0OO.
1t was almost o'clock before the road
got fairly into running order, cars being
started from Fifteenth street At sha
, hour fremen were pulling down what trag
- ments remained of the wall and the flames
C were entirely sudued.
y 1t is believed the fire started by spon
e taneous combustion among hay stored or
:. the third floor, which had been recently
. brought in and was yet damp. There haC
been no fire in the building for severa
Z weeks.

New YORK, November 25.-One of the

after the discovery fully forty streams Of

thousands, stacked to the height Of thirty
to forty feet, These were saved by the CT
forts of the hremcn, who from the begin

point to prevent general conaagration
among the tenement houses of Ninth avenue.
Almost before movement to save the stock
in tho stables could be made the flames
burst simultaneously from the windows on
the riftieth and Forty.ninth streets side.
Il became clear that tho building was
doomed to destruction Cars stored on the
ground door were run out and saved. The

Newspapers and Education.

A school teacher who had been a long
time engaged in his profession and
witnessed the influence Of newspapers
upon the minds Of a family Of children
writes as follows:
/ have found IL to be an universal
fact, without exception, that those
scholar Of both sexes aud Of all ages
who have access to newspapers at home
when compared with those who have
not, are:
l. Better readers, excellent In pro-
nuneiation aud consequently read
more and aud Understandings.
2. They are better spoilers, and de-
fine with ease and accuracy.
3. They obtain a practical knowledge
Of geography in almost half the time it
requires Of others, ms the newspapers
have made them acquainted with the
locality Of the important places, of ma
tions and their doing OH the globe.
L. They are better gramniarians, for
having become so familiar with every
variety of style in the newspapers,
from the commonplace advertisement
to the finished and classical Grafton of
the states man; they more readily COM
prehend the meaning of the text, and
constantly analyze its construction
with accuracy.
g.. They write better compositions,
use better language, containing more
thought more clearly and correctly ex-
pressed.
O.. Those young men who haye for
years been readers Of newspapers are
the lead in debating societies,
exhibiting a more extensive knowledge
upon a greater variety of subjects, and
expressing their views with greater
fluency, clearness and correctness.

Texas groans over the number of its
thieves, murderers and scoundrcls.
There are now in the State, it is said,
an average of four murderers per diem,
while the government is so weak that
1t does not try to protect its own wit
uesses on the stand. Lately q States
witness in a murder case was knocked
down and stabbed in the streets of Pal
estine by half a dozen friends of the
murderer. In other counties the shoot
ing and assassination of States wit
nesses is now of almost weekly occur
renee. Great fault is found with the
inefficiency of Co... Roberts admins

rewards for the apprehension of muir

to spend any money to bring back into
Texas any fugitiyes from Justice

Editor Of Herald AS some of your

from this quarter of Goods moral

sketch. The health of this section is
good, with the exception ofsOre-throat,
or diphtheria; no m has died with 1t
yet. 1t would be m objectionable
crime if ! failed to say something of
our town. We have the biggest little
town you never saw. We have two
hotels-the Thomson house and the
Abel house; four dry goods houses and
one drugstore, with the prospect Of n
family grocery soon two blacksmith
shops, II shoc-slop, two saddler
shops and two doctor shops. The
place Is full of workmen Of all kinds
"and still they come" Every day or
two you hear of some n here wanting
u house to move into. If there had
been twenty empty houses here new
years day, they could have been rent
ed ere this. Some one Is building all
the time. There have been some half a
dozen houses put up In the last year,
besides Il great deal of repairing.
Some men have been getting out ties
for the Cincinnati Southern, but work
has not begun on the grade within less
than SIX miles from here, aud It Is sup
posed 1t will be a month or more before
work Is commenced here.
