CLOSE CALL.
An Ugly Fire Discovered in Time to Pre-
vent Serious Loss.

An Ugly Fire Discovered in Time to Pre-
vent Serious Loss.
At II O'Clock last night an alarm of fire
was rung on tine Central gong, Box ;,
Central engine house being the one struck.
The cause was a telephone message just
received from John III. Thomas X Sons
works, stating that fire had broken out in
the wOod-Shop. The department got out
promptly. the Westerns making especially
good time, but their services were not need
ed. as the blaze had been extinguished be
fore their arrival.
An ugly fire was probably averted. At
the time indicated Harry Bean, who holds
a clerical position at the Thomas office ad-
joining the works and rooms in the build
ing, saw bright light in one of the second
story shop windows overlooking Monroe
street. He was accompanied by Will Put
nam and J. S. Miles. They at once gave
the alarm 10 Thomas Holly, the night watch
man, and the four men fastening up stairs
speedily eNtinguished the small but menac-
ing FIRE. 1t was found to be located in a
basket of small chips and shavings. which
are reamed out of the end of the radial
arms of the tedders. The ends of the arms
are boiled in oil to make them friction re-
SiSting and tough. These shavings are
accordingly very infammable, and are full
of oil and paint. The fire was unquestion-
ably Of spontaneous origin, as these chips
are likely to burst into blaze as soon as
they become heated. They are not usually
allowed to accumulate, but last night this
box was overlooked. Ten minutes more
would have seen the shop blazing. The
night watchman Holly said he had smelIed
burning paint, and hunted for it half an
hour before il WAS finally located

The Disston Land and Improvement Com.
pany is doing some marvellous work in
Florida, In redeeming thousands of acres of
land which is now under water. Already
immense tracts have been thus made avail
able, and it has been demonstrated that
there is no better land in the State than that
thus reclaimed. The company operates
under a law of the State which allows it one
half of the land rendered available, and eX-
poets TO reap a rich harvest before it finishes
the Improvements contemplated.
The South Florida Railroad, from Sanford
to Tampa, crosses the State on n dividing
ridge, and from this ridge, looking south,
there is a continual but gradual depression
in the land to the southern extremity of the
State. The land to the south of this ridge
is different from that on its north, in that it
is not at all undulating, but spreads out in a
vast plain, gradually inclined toward the
north. The Disston Company is utilizing
this work of nature.
Lake Kissimmee is in the midst of series
of lakes, and its northern point just
touches the South Florida Railroad at
Kissimmee City. This lake Is very
long and narrow one, reaching toward
Lake Okeechobee, with which it has
been contested by oanalling the intervening
series of lakes. The lakes around Kissimmee
have been connected TO it by canals, giving
a continual outlet TO OkeechObse. Thus the
areas of these lakes are lessened by the i'm
mense flow which finds its way to Okeecho
bee, and from thence to the Gulf on one side,
and to the Atlantic on the other, canals
reaching from the immense lake to these two
great bodies of water on each side. BY this
canalling process the level of Lake Kissimmes
has been lowered six feet and that of The
lakes surrounding 1t proportionately.
| In this manner the Disston Company pro
poses to reclaim thousands of acres of land
one half of which will go to the State ant
the other half to the company. The land
which is thus made useful is not only tina
Immediately surrounding these lakes, bu
extends in many places over miles of swampy
bottoms. Since these lakes have been con
nected 1t is now an easy matter to start b.
boat in Lake Rissimmes, in the centre of lowe
Florida, and proceed by water through LAX
Okeech0bee to either the Atlantic or thu
Gulf.
1t is said that Georgia's great swamp, tn,
Okefeenokee, can be as easily reclaimed
This immense morass, forming distinc
basin much lower than the surrounding
country, is at its lowest point within but
few miles of the ST. Mary's River, the leve
of which is below that of the swamp. Thes
two connected by canal, the great Okefeenoke
is drained and magnificent area of land
ready for the plough. 1t is only question
