CROWDS AT THE RUINS.

GROh ID Al IdE EIINSs
Crowds of curious people filed Brough-
ton streetin the vicinity of the
ruins of the fire all day. When
Mays body was discovered bed the great
est excitement prevailed, and there was a
rush 10 see it. Every hour or so the rumor
that another body had been found was
started and hundreds climbed ON the piles of
brick In the front aud rear of Byck's store
and watched the men digging away the
debris Of the fallen wall a q roof.
The tiremen were on duty most of the
forenoon. In the afternoon Miller g. Co.
began moving out what they could of
their damaged stock. S. w. Branch
and ID. b. Lester were open for
business as usual, and their losses will be
adjusted with little delay. The adjusters
will begin to arrive to-day to look over the

damaged buildings will be rebuilt at once.
There has been considerable inquiry
in regard to the "heaters" for the
fire engines which the city coun-
Gil authorized the fire committee to
purchase some time ago. With these
heaters the engines would have warm water
in their boilers all the time and there
would be less delay in getting up steam,
and consequently in getting to work. 1t
was learned yesterday that the heaters
have not yet been ordered. The fire COM
mittee is ia correspondence with manufact-
urers, however, and expects to have the
heaters soon.

SENSIBLE sKIDAwAY PEOPLE

Among Themselves,

v
Among Themselves.
Editor Morning NetOs: Skidaway
Island, one Of the largest in this county, is
inhabited almost exclusively by colored
people, who earn their livelihood by fishing
and planting For years. probably without
knowing it, they have been enforcing the
''no fence" law by general consent. By an
agreement among themselves everybody is
required to fence, pen or tie up his stock,
and if any damage be done to crops by
stock running at large the owner must pay
it.
Years ago these Skidaway islanders dis
covered that in order to permit a few
people to keep worthless COWS and razor
backn hogs, the rest of the community were
put to the expense of putting and keeping
up costly fences. They decided it vas
better for the many to raise corn, potatoes,
peas, melons, etc., which they could eat or
sell, than for the few who own cows that
give no milk, and steers and hogs that were
too poor to eat.
On another island where few white men
have stock the colored people have been
starved out because they have not money to
putup fences. SKID.
