tSyiqht Fire and Great Escape.

The good fortune which has usually at
tended Watertown in the matter of fires
was instanced again last Wednesday even,
ing. A little after eight O clock the Office
of the Watertown Democrat, situated in
the second story of the Democrat Block,
near Main street bridge, was discovered
on fire. The alarm was promptly given
but one thing and another prevented the
engines from appearing on the ground
ready for service. The Silsby was delay
ed for want of team to draw it to the
fire and the Ahrens was long time
before getting out for some other reason.
| Then, again, when the fremen were pre-
pared for action it was discovered that no
holes had been cut in the ice at the plat
forms along the river, as had been, or
should have been provided for by the
city, and to get the hose in position to OBJ
tain water took up precious time at a
very critical moment Meanwhile the
fire in the building was making some prog
ress, filling the block upstairs and down
with smoke and heat to such an extent as
to render it impossible for any one to try
and do anything in the way of saving
any of the contents. The fire was main
" in the centre of the Democrat office
and hard to reach. Fortunately before
the flames had got much of start, al
though ample time had been given them,
the engines commenced playing and in
short order the fire was extinguished.
The block was damaged to the amount Of
about two hundred dollars The Office
of our neighbor of the Democrat was dis
covered to have escaped tolerably well,
all things considered, although it was a
hard looking place next morning and to
Judge from the surroundings there appear
ed a very poor prospect of the issue for
this week being worked off on time. The
day after the fire the adjuster for the
Rhode Island, the company having the
risk on the Democrat office, was on hand
and promptly adjusted the loss, allowing
$326.50. The Photograph Gallery Of
John B. May, divided from the Democrat
office only by hall, suffered injury from
smoke and water and in the excitement
of removing some Of the furniture and
fixtures sustained slight loss One hun
dred dollars, perhaps, would make Mr..
Mays damage good. The loss of J. X.
Chappell on the Democrat Block is es-
timated at about $3.50, and is covered by
insurance Mr.. G. procured east. Taken
altogether and considering the imminent
danger the surrounding property was in
for time, it was most lucky escape
from serious conhagration.

in was found dead not long ago. 1t is

as to be always in readiness in case of

well enough for the Board of Street Com

this matter and erect barn for the boys.

GEORGE sOOVILLE,
Counsel for Defense in Guiteau Case.

Mr.. Scoville was born at Pompey,
Onondaga County, New York, Oct. 10,
1924, His father moved to Ohio in 1886,
the subject of this sketch being then
twelve years old. OHIO was then spare
ly settled and young Scoville spent his
days in hunting and trapping in the
wild woods. BY his own exertions he
managed to obtain a good academic
education, at the age of twenty-five be-
gan the study of law, was admitted to
the bar in 1848 at Albany. N. Y. and
removed to Chicago, Iii. in 1851 where
he now resides.
During his entire practice of thirty
years, he has never undertaken GRIM
inal case, save two, in which he was
successful, and into which he was driv-
en- as he was into this case. his practice
consisting Of real-estate and Chancery
cases.
He became acquainted with the Gui-
teau family in 1S49, at Freeport. H.,
and after the death of the mother Of the
assassin, he married the only daughter,
Frances M.
In a private letter referring to the
present case he saws:
1.-The force of circumstances has driv-
en- me into this case as into the two
others; but once enlisted / shall give to
it the same tireless perseverance that
commenced as habit of my life In early
hunting days, and has gone with me
through subsequent years. | claim no
other talent than the ability for hard
work"
His conduct of the case has shown
him to be an able, logical and eloquent
advocate; tireless in his efforts to save
the assassin from the doom of felon.
The outraged feelings of the people
could not readily accord to any other
individual in the country the same lole-
ration and sympathy than do for the
husband of the sister of the felon. who
attempts to shield the wife of his bosom
from the eternal disgrace which would
embitter her whole life should her
brother suffer death on the scaifold.

The People Who Do Not Kill Themselves.

TOO much silverware at the start is
dangerous thing for young couple"
says modern philosopher for it calls
for other things TO correspond, and will
keep the young man on strain to keep
up appearances. l.knew pair of brass
andirons to ruin a man thirty years ago,
and he never has recovered from it, for
they called for fender and the fender
called for a fine rug and the rug for
carpet and carpet for curtains and
cornice, and so on and SO fourth and
fifth and sixth, until he got in debt and
tried to sell his house 10 pay out and
couldn't sell it, hut the sheriff camo
along and sold it just as easy. Extrav-
agance and trying to keep up with
neighbors is the great domestic trouble
in this country. 1t brings on financial
distress, and that causes speculation and
embezzlement and bamboozlement and
ends in whisky and suicide. There is
no security in this life but honest indus
try and living within ones means.
Folks who do that don't kill themselves.

The "Igloo,n

The correspondent who accompanied
the Arctic expedition Of Lieut. Greeley,
gives this graphic account of the inte-
rior of an Esquimaux hut, and the ev-
cry day costume OF its mistress:
AT Proven . better opportunity for
studying The habits of the primitive Es-
quimaux was afforded than at any other
place we have visited. The whalers
and exploring parties seldom visit it
and the influence of the white man is
less perceptlble. They retain their
habits of life as practiced before they
improved their condition, to greater
extent than in other parts Of Greenland.
| spent four hours consecutively in one
of their least attractive '.igloos," or
huts. My pretext for so protraeted u
stay was ostensibly awaiting the COM
pletion of cap OF elder down, on
which one of the squaws was engaged.
The hut was built Of turf, moss and
stones, and was entered by long, mar
row, low passage or unnel--so low that
was compelled to crawl on hands and
feet most dsagrceable and hrmiliat-
ing proceeding, as the dogs and natives
(not much better in point Of ceanli-
ness) also have ingress and egress

first glance discovered the mistress Of
the house in an extremely airy costume,
