a gull, with trained and eager eve,

was tossed about SO as to drop into the

they were ablaze. \ strong wind was
blowing toward the city at the time
| and The blaze was soon beyond the

from street to street and nothing could
be done but let the flames have their
own way until they reached the river
and then endeayor to prevent the fire
from reaching the buildings on the OPP

the city and one business block after
another was consumed everything be-

lire department was stationed on the

flying cinders from setting fire to the
buildings there. Only few dwellings
were destroyed, as the residence por-

Every business house in the city
including eight banks, all the hotels

except the Crescent block, and every

burned out. The burned district in
cludes all that part of the city from
the Northern Pacific railway to the

to have persisted, and several more
were injured by leaping from Win
