CAUSED BY FIREWORKS.
Over $16O,OOO Worth of Property
Burned in Vicksburg.

bufneu IN tlCkSDurg.
VICKsBURG, Miss, Dec. 25.-The fire
last night was the most disastrous that
has occurred in Vicksburg in years.
The total loss will exceed $4,000, dis
tributed as follows: SwitZer. Lewwitter
" Co., $4,000, stock and building in
sured for S95, 600; Rea & Jackson, stock
$4,000, insurance S13,590; Lewis Bros,
shoes. $1,000. fully insured: j. Blumen-
stein $500, fully insured; b. q. Kegers,
loss on Lewis building $4,000. fully in
sured; Alexander Kuhn estate, loss on
Rea 81 jackson building $1,000, well in
Sured. The fire rs attributed to care
leSSneSS with fireworks, but Its origin is
really unknown. 1t began in the base
ment of SwitZer, Newwitter & Co..
which was full of staple cotton goods.
About IL o'clock last night dense clouds
OF smoke poured from the building,
making it impossible to enter until the
flames burst through the first floor. The
tfremen were at great disadvantage,
being unable to reach the fire. By mid
night five hydrant streams were play
Ing on 1t. and at D, N. the flames were
apparently checked. At this time the
rear Of SwitZer. Newwitter IL Co.'s
building had fallen. The crash weak
ened the southwestern corner of Rea &
JacksOn'S building, which fell also at
a. m. The fire then burst out afresh.
and in spite of all eXertions licked up
this building and contents in few
minutes. The tremen played on the
ruins throughout to-day and were flood
ing the basement tonight.

THE TAGS DROPPED OFF.
Free Fight at a Christmas Tree
Celebration in Illinois.

SHAwNEETowN, H., Dec. PA free
fight took placefat Christmas tree eel
ebration in Eagle Creek precinct last
night, at which chairs, clubs, knives
and pistols were used. Thomas Bur
roughs, the church door-keeper, and
one of the most respectable aud promi-
nent farmers in the county, was DAN
gerously stabbed in two places, Stout
Colbert was hit in the chin with bull
let, and several other persons received
minor injuries. The fight arose from
mistake in distributing the presents.
As is usual at such entertainments,
parents in the neighborhood
had taken their gifts to the
church, where they were properly
labeled and hung up on the tree. Some
of the tags were insecurely fastened
and dropped off. but were replaced as
accurately as possible. Last night
large crowd assembled to witness the
distribution. When about a dozen of
the presents had been handed to the
children farmer named johnson
grabbed sled from child's hands and
declared it was one he had brought
there for his little boy. The sexton at
tempted to explain his mistake, but
johnson pushed him rudely aside and
started for the door, carrying the sled
in his hands. Some young men who
had been drinking tried to snatch the
sled from johnson, and he struck one
of them, and was himself hit with
chair and felled to the floor. The fight
then became general, and for a time it
looked as though number of the CON-
batants would be killed.

ards0n's house was reached that they
discovered that anything was wrong.
With the breeching straps loose it was,
OF course, impossible to keep the buggy
from the horses legs. He was spir-
tied young animal. and becoming fright
ened ran away. Mr.. Lloyd held to the
reigns and told his companion to keep
her seat. She lost her head completely,
however, and jumped from the flying
first, and heavy silver hat pin was
driven into her skull, penetrating the
brain at least two inches. Before the
frightened horse had gone much farther
Mr.. Lloyd succeeded in jumping to the
ground in safety. He hurried back to
where Miss Irwin lay unconscious and
carried her into house. Before med
ical aid could reach her she was dead.
1t is not known whether the act which
resulted in Miss Irwin'S death was
practical joke or was done maliciOusly
by some enemy.
