FORETOLD BY FIREMEN.
Berrisford's Factory Visited by a
Destructive Blaze.


Confagratlons come in triplets. The
old superstition of all f1remen were veri-
fed early yesterday morning. when the
last of a series of three great fires took
place. Following the burning of the
Omaha general offices last Friday came
the destruction of the Grand opera house
Monday, and the inevitable third fire of
the series put in an appearance early
yesterday morning, when the establish
ment of the Berrisford Baking &
Bracker company, Fifth and Minnesota
streets, was Quilted by flames. At 4:20
O'Clock bakers working on the lower
floor discovered fire in the upper story,
and sent in ''still'' alarm, which was
followed on the arrival of the
first piece of apparatus by a
general alarm, calling out the
full force of the department. The fire
had gained great Roadway, and before
single stream could be turned upon it
the entire upper story was ablaze. the
and spreading to the floor below. The
entire building was thought to be
doomed, and fears were entertained
that the fire would spread to the build
ing adjoining, which is also used by the
BerriSfordS as box mandatory and
cracker factory. A substantial fire wall
separated the structures, and through
the efforts of the fremen the flames
were confined to the third and fourth
stories of the building. The top floor
was used as storage room for manu-
featured goods, and the one underneath
for manufacturing confectionery, was
filled with quantity of infammable
matter. The roof and'fourth floor burned
until they fell in and crashed through
to the third floor, where the fire was
stubbornly attacked and fought until
extinguished. though the contents of
the two stores was totally destroyed.
The stock of goods on the first and
second floors was badly damaged by
water. The exact amount of damage to
stock and building by fire and water
will not be known until an inventory is
taken, but is estimated at about $4,000.
which is covered by an insurance of
s24,0 900 On stock, fixtures and machinery,
and $4,000 Oh the building.
A member of the company stated last
evening that none of the machinery was
damaged and that business would be
conducted in the adjoining building
until the damage to the floors and roof
could be repaired. Arrangement have
been perfected whereby the company
will begin filling orders this morning.

Minneapolis Men Not Wanted.

To the Editor OF the GloDe.
! see that for the year 1889 an executive
committee has been appointed by the fair
association, consisting of W. NJ. Bushnell,
ST. Paul: F. c. Pillsbury, Minneapolis, and
Col. Clarke Chambers, Owatonna, AS one Of
the exhibitors of the past at our state fair, I
cannot see why gentleman of Minneapolis
should be appointed on that committee.
First. what interest does Minneapolis show
in the state fair? Second, Minneapolis has
an exposition during the time of our state
fair and don't give snap for the fair only to
draw crowds to their exposition. Why not
appoint someone who is truly interested to
make the state fair SUGGEST
j am at all times in favor of cooperating
with our sister city, but if she gets too indie
pendent don't think she ought to be repre-
sented on that executive committee. We
have taken the first prize at the state fair Of
late years with our display, which occupied
space of 500 square feet, and have been
instrumental in getting others to make ex-
hibits. Ii it was not for st. Paul firms what
would the fair amount to- with the exception
of the cattle and horses which come from
the state at large. a PAUL QUEHL,

new WARDS PROPOSED.
Citizens Of South st. Paul Decide
Upon a Change.
BOUNDARIES ESTABLISHED.
Bonds Will Be Issued and Another
Council Elected to Administer
Affairs Of the City.

A new common council is proposed
for South st. Paul by the committee on
revising the charter. The aldermenl
named are: s.s
First ward-John Kochandorfer,l
Frank Waterous and T. II. Yorke. 4 I
Second ward-C. A. Baer, John E.
Rourke and W. G. Denny,
Third ward-Pieree R. Connolly, E. E.,
Sutton and Machael Gehan. 10
The revised charter presented to the
citizens committee yesterday afternoon
also calls for the issue of bonds as fol-
lows: School fund. $4,000: fire depart
ment, $4,000, and local improvement
fund, $4,000. The local Improvement
fund is created to pay for grading, and
the assessments therefor are payable
when due, or in four annual INSTALL
ments, with per cent interest on the
deferred payments. No change appears
to be contemplated in the Offices of con-
troller, treaSurer,and clerk. A board of
education is proposed, consisting of
three members, one from each ward.
The subdivision of the First and Fifth
wards into three wards is indicated as
follows:
First Ward-All that portion lying
dUUVG auIldpOilS otlSCt anu CAtOuuluS
thence southwark to Wentworth ave-
hue.
Second Ward-That portion lying be-
tween Wentworth and Blair avenues.
Third Ward-That portion lying
south of Blair.avenue, and thence to the
south city limits.
At taxpayers meeting, which Tati-
fed the proposed charter amendments,
Monday night, the chairman, NJ. M.
Thomas, objected to the proposi-
ton to make the terms of
Office of the aldermen. one, two
and three years. This was overcome
by advising that the aldermen be APP
pointed to serve until June, $780, and
then have general election for alder
men to serve terms in rotation as origin
ally proposed. Mr.. Thomas remarks
on this question were construed by some
to voice the views of Neal COnley, chief
of police of South st. Paul, who, they
feared, might not be retained by the
new council. Those best posted, how
ever, are of the opinion that there is no
cause for such misglyings, as Chief
niZed by his retention in the Office as
long as he desires to hold it. They de-
sire particularly to operate in unison
with the police force of st. Paul proper,
and Chief Conley's connections are
such that he can bring about the de-
sired result. His friends in the present
city government, particularly Mayor
Silk, do not propose to turn their Offices
over to the reorganization until such
matters are settled. South st. Paul,
tired of the turmoil that arose between
its first chief and the uptown police,a
undertook to do without chief, but
this course proved to be unwise, and
Neal Conley was selected to fill the po-
sition. The stock-yards city has since
been remarkably free from crime and
criminals, and its police department
has the strong commentator of the
great majority, regardless of party.

TOPICS OF THE TIMES.

Arrangements are being made for a
damatic entertainment, to be given by
st. Paul amateurs, under the manage
ment OF Col. Bend. ''Checkmate" and
tFreezing a Mother-in-Law" are the
plays decided upon, the cast to include
all the local stars of first magnitude.
The performance will take place about
Feb. 1, and the guild of Christ church
will receive the benefit.
Senator Sabin is evidently gifted with
an iron constitution, for according to
Fred Norris his secretary, he was as
fresh the morning after the recent eau
Gus as the initial day of the senatorial
fight. II never saw such man, con-
tinued Mr.. Norris. "Working day after
day, from s in the morning until far
into the night. always in good humOr,
and never allowing his wits to de-
sert him, but always keeping them
screwed up to the topmost tension.
When apparently defeated last Thurs
day evening he took his medicine philo-
sophica1ly, and never uttered COM
plant, but with a heart as light and
free from care as though he were the
victor instead of the vanquished in the
caucus; he attended to the incidental
were an everyday occurrence, and de-
feats mere bagatelle."
The fateS have not bestowed upon
Mr.. Washburn their beneficenty gift of
equipoise of mind with such a lavish
hand. A trusted lieutenant of the Min
neapoliS gentleman, who was at the
Merchants yesterday, stated that Mr..
WaShburn had been confined to his bed
since Friday. and that the strain upon
his nervous system had been so severe
that an attack of brain feverwas feared.

speaker, ''to see him enter the corridor
this moment, as he is possessed of an
indomitable will, and has set his heart
upon the possession of certificate of
election to the United States senate"

''Our fires increase with our prosper
ity," said NJ. T. Kahn yesterday. and he
apparently estimated the situation cor
rectly. "Midwinter seems to be the
banner season for fires, and the three
disastrous events of the past week have
demonstrated this. The ghosts of the
Beaupre-Keogh and Foot-Schulze fires
confront all who are of retrospective
turn of mind"
City water works bonds to the amount
of $4,000 were redeemed yesterday by

operators in pork products were against
the payment of full prices in the West,

reason to believe that the condition of
affairs has changed here, and we are as
Sured by those who are directly in

St. Paul that the differences between

Montana.s Wool Gin,

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Jan. H.
Charles Gibson, the extensive sheep
owner, estimates the wool clip for 1888
at 100000 pounds. A large quantity
of this wool went east by the st. Paul,
Minneapolis IL Manitoba railroad. 1.000,-
900 pounds being shipped from Great
Falls and 100000 pounds from Benton

are preparing to go to the Great feser-
walton and the Milk River valley to
take free government land for ranches
the coming spring, and, taken al
together, the outlook for Montana was
never brighter than at present.
