FAYETTE'S FIRE.
The Howard County COnrt House
Goes up i'm Flames.

Fayette, Mo, Dec. 2-The court house
building at this place was discovered To be
on fire at O'Clock last night and in thirty
minutes 1t was completely Quilted. The
fire caught under the roof at the north end
of the building, supposedly from hue
which had become defective and had been
smouldering there for several hours. As
soon as il reached the belfrey al the south
end, the fire escaped from its pent-up quar-
tiers and made rapid Roadway. Volumes
of smoke pouring from the belfrey gave
the first indications of fire and a large
crowd responded quickly TO the alarm A
glance showed the impossibiIity of saving
the building and every effort was directed
toward the preservation of the
records. Fortunately all the county
officers were i'm the building
or among the first to arrive and each DIR
ected the work of his office Willing hands
worked rapidly and Systematically and in
twenty minutes every record and all valua-
reach of the fire. Very little wind was
danger to the other buildings The burned
building was erected in 1855 at q cost of
sd 800. 1t was insured for $4,000, dis
tributed as follows: Central, of New York,
$1,000 German American, s., 800; Spring
field, $500. The building showed the
rayageS Of time and the citizens of Howard
county long looked forward to the time
when it should be replaced with a hand
some and more substantial structure. The
present loss, however. comes at "A very un-
fortunate time and will probably result in
the building Of a $4,000 court house
instead of the fine one contemplated, were
