An Evidence OF Prosperity.

At the injecting Of Council held
Wednesday evening, there were q
number of applications read ask
log the required sanction to erect new
buildings, and to enlarge, repair and alter
present buildings. There were also four
applications asking Council to have ap-
praised and offered at public sale certain
lots belonging to the city, the applicants
stating their intention to build st once.
This Is gratifying evidence Of the faith
our people have in the future Of this city,
aud Of the general prosperity OF the CON-
munitY. The plans of these proposed new
buildings and their location having been
carefully examined and approved by the
City Surveyor as being within the require
ments Of the ordinance, the desired permits
sion was granted, and it is presumed,
that work will be commenced on
many OF them without delay. The indica'
lions are that the next few months our
mechanics and artisans viii have all they
can possibly do, and by the close OF the
present year the taxable property OF rne
city will be very largely increased we
present below list OF the applications LOT
the erection OF new dwellings, giving tne
location and character OF the proposed
buildings:

The Hay and Grain stores of II. II.
Bond & Co Burned.

About five minutes to one O'Clock this
morning the private Waterman who is on
duty on the Bay, between Whitaker and
Barnard streets, discovered smoke Issuing
from the cellar of the extensive haY and
grain establishment CT Messrs. 7. P. Bond &
Co, No. 153 Bay street. he has
tened to box No IL, corner of Bay and
Jefferson streets, and turned in an alarm. 10
the meanwhile the fire. which had ap-
parently been smouldering for some time,
extended through the cellars of the two
stores Oec1 pied by the firm, and which were
packed with bales Of hay, and shorty
forked tongues Of fame shot forth
through the iron grating and forced
their way through the flooring
into the first story, where there is also q
'srge stock of grain and hay, and when the
Fire Department reached the<scene the
situation looked very serious. They were
promptly at work, however. Two steamers
had streams on playing into the front Of the
building, and a third stream was introduced
from the rear. The smoke was so dense
that It almost blinded the fremen and pre-
vented them from discovering the seat of
the fire. They gallsntly continued the
fight, however, and by the hardest exer-
tfons prevented the spread of the flames to
the adj dining buildings.
The building, belonging to the estate of
DeRepne, is insured In the Southern Mutual.
represented by Messrs. 7. H. Harden & Co.
The stock is also insured, but in what
agencies could not be ascertaiped
This is the second time within the past
two years that Mr.. Bond has suffered heavily
from fire.
LATER.
$40 A. M.-At this hour the fire Is raging
with wonderful ferceness, the expectations
of subduinp the flames not being realized,
owing to the discovery that the supply OF
water at the plug corner of Barnard and
Bryan streets was exhausted, and there was
one less stream in use. The flames
spread rapidly TO the rear of the stores.
and soon in brilliant sheets appeared
through the roof Of the building, threaten
ing the adjoining property east and west.
The fremen at this writing are work
| ing theoretically, and with almost
superhunan effort to stay the flames, but a.
there is strong breeze blowing, there is nc
predicting where the conhsgrstion will bt
stopped.
Whilst there is danger that Messrs
Messrs. Loeb q Ehrlich on the west may b'
| damaged by the devouring element, it is the
hope OF the firemen that the confsgrstioI
| will be confined to the buildings in which
/ 1t originated.
4:10 A. M-The fire is now considered I'M
/ der control, and no further spread Of the
/ flames is expected. Chief Butler and hi
brigade have done nobly.

Simmons Liver Regulator, purely vegeta-
BILE, is not unpleasant to the taste. 1t is the
medicine generally used in the South to
arouse the torpid liver to healthy action.
It cures malaria, biliousness, dyspepsia,
headache, constipation and piles. The
action Of the Regulator is free from nausea
or gripping. II is most effective In starting
the secretions of the liver, causing the bile
to act as q cathartie. When there is an ex-
cess Of bile In the stomach, the Regulator is
an active purge after the removal of the
bile, 1t will regulate the bowels and impart
vignr and health TO the whole system.
