Previous to the showers of Friday and
Saturday Of last week, there had been no rain
sufficient to wet through the dust In most of
the towns Of this county for ls days, and the
crops on dry soils we're beginning to suffer
severely from drought. During this time in
the northern part of the state there were
abundant rains. Sometimes one section is
fortunate in having seasonable rains, and
then the other. On an average the southern
part of the state has little more rain than
the northern part.

AN EXTENSIVE FIRE.
Large Brewery Burned Loss One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars.


 Dollars.
 ROCHESTER,, Feb. 11.-A fire broke out in the hop room of the Genesee Brewing com pady's building at o'clock this afternoon. The department responded promptly, but were unable to do much work on account of the cold, the thermometer being several de grees below zero and the water mains being frozen. Soon after the fire was discovered a terrific explosion occurred in the malt room caused by a rush of hot air from the hop room which raised the roof and broke every pane of glass in the building. It is general ly believed that number of men were in the room at the time and that they have been burned to death. This cannot yet be con- 6rmed, as the flames still raging and 1t will take some time to determine the cause. The following persons are injured: Frank Schroll and Martin Dietz of the Brewing company, burned about the face, head and body; Harry Kimball, & member of the Pro- tective fire company, burned about the face, ann Andrew Carll of the Active hose compa- ny, who fell from a ladder and was seriously injured about the head and may die. At this hour, il 80 D. m., it is evident that the entire building will be consumed. Probable loss $150, ,000; the insurance will reach S55,- GOO.
 LATER.-The following are to be added to the list of injured Llewellyn H. Van Zandt, fireman, slightly burned about the face and hands; John A. Wolcott, fireman, it is known that no one has been killed out right, but it is thought that Carll. the fire man who fell from ladder, will die. The fire is still burning
