A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

| Owensboro Visited by u Disnster-Severnl
Lives Lost In n Hotel Firo.
OwENsBoRo, KY, Nov. 7.-Owensboru
was visited last night by the most de,
atructive fire in her history, and when
the debris is cleared away and order
reiens it is found that the conilagration
will be found to have been attended
with loss OF life. Atl o'clock the fire
had destroyed property to tho amount
of S250, 600 and was still burning. AT
that time it was believed that at least
five persons met their death under fall
ing walls, while others were seriously
injured in jumping from burning build
ings. The tire originated in pantry in
the basement OF the Rudd House, a
handsome modern hotel, which was filed
with sleeping guests. The fire had
gained considerable headway before it
was discovered, and then it rapidly
gutted the house. The guests were
awakened and ran into the streets in
their night clothes, while many, crazed
by fear, jumped from the windows OF
the hotel. Among these were two Ia
dies and child, both of whom are badly
injured. William H. John jumped from
the third story window Of the Rudd
House, fell on his back and is fatally in
jured.
There arc five guests OF the Rudd
house who are missing and they are be-
lieved to have been burned to death
while sleeping. A high wind was blow
ing at the time the fire originated and
after eight blocks had been swept away
the flames reached the Bank Of Com
merce building next door, and that,
with the buildings occupied by Marks
and Dregan, grocers, and Quicksirt and
Company, merchant tailors, was soon in
ashes. The building on the corner, oc-
cupied by the Owensboro Messenger,
with its costly outfit, was the next to be
attacked and in a few minutes was de-
stroyed. The fire then spread around
the corner and burned the buildings
occupied by Markers saloon, Smith,
butcher, D. A. Evans livery stable and
a number OF stores.
After daylight this morning the eix
missing people were found. There were
several narrow escapes from the burning
hotel. Charles Bareford, OF New Albany,
and Charles Leibrick, of Philadelphia,
were badly and probably fatally burned.

AT last the car stove is going. over two
hundred cars of the Pennsylvania railroad
have been fitted with steam heating appli-
nnces and officials announce that the rest
of their ears will bo rapidly put In condi-
ton for steam heating next winter. The
system used Is thus described: "Two
straight pipes two inches in diameter, one
for steam and the other to carry the water
OF condensation back TO the locomotive.
This is done by a small vacuum pump
fixed on the tender and kept constantly
running. The exhaust steam Is all that Is
used, excepting In very cold weather.
Steam can be cut OH from any car without
interfering with the others. The pipes
come up In the car on each side Just about
tho middle and II spur runs under each
seat. The car is ventilated by forty open
ings through the floor, each about two
inches in diameter and directly under tho
seats. Tho fresh air passes over the steam
pipes, becoming heated before passing into
the car. lfa car gets too hot there is
valve In the floor which can be so adjusted
as to regulate the heat"

A RATHER IN ms TROUSERS.
A Few Minutes of Downright Terror for
n Camper in snyder County.


Camper in snyder County.
from the Middleburg Post.
DR. Sampsel and J, X Snyder, both of
Centreville, had an experience at Swift
Run recently that they will never forget
Ihey camped at the lower dam at swift
Run, on ledge of rocks, on the night in
question, aud before darkness came upon
them they scraped lot of leaves together
for led, and provided a pile of wood to
keep up fire during the night. About 10
O'Clock they prepared for sleep, and, draw
ing blanket over them, lay down to
pleasant dreams.
Along towards o'clock Mr.. Snyder felt
chilly and got up To put some more wood
on the fire, and then lay down aud soon
fell into a deep sleep, from which he was
awakened by cold object which seemed
to be resting on his log. Without moving
he lay awake, waiting for developments
The next moment he falt an Understandable
sensation come over him which seemed to
paralyZe every nerve in his body. Realizing
that there was something extraordinary
the matter, he called TO the doctor tn hurry
aud get up, as something was crawling nm
the right leg OF his pantaloons and he be-
lieved II was snake. The words went
through the doctor like an electric shock,
and, raklng brand out of the fire, he ap-
preached Mr.. Snyder, who was lying as if
paralyzed, with the cold sweat standing in
big beads on his forehead. Half blinded
by the fllckerng flame Of the brand he
noticed what at first looked like a broad
black strap hanging out of Mr.. Spyder's
trouser leg, but the next m lment ex-
claimed My God Muckle, lie still it's a
rattlesnake!"
Trembling like leaf, Mr.. SNYDER
seemed powerless 10 move even il he " I'D.
The condition Of things was at once evident.
The reptile had been attracted TO the fire,
and sought warmth on the person of Mr..
snyder. Every moment IL disappeared
further up the leg, and prompt action was
necessary. Grasping the snake by the

tail, the deplor pulled with all his might.
His hold shipped, and the nttles. fourteen
In number, came of aud remained In his
hand. The reptile had wrapped IT,
around the bare shin on the mans leg, aud
wildly shook Its derattled tail, indicating
its anger nj such harsh treatment. This
performance almost threw Mr.. Snyder into
convulsions.
Recovering himself, the doctor bethougl t
himself of his knife. and quickly opening
q blade keen as n razor, he cut the pania-
looms up to the body. This released the
snake, and IL quickly unwound and threw
itself into 81 coil, ready for effective work,
but, before II could strike, the doctor struck
1t blow with club that cut IL clean In
two. Mr.. Snyder was lifted by the arms
and dragged away from the hdeous ser
pent and the next mo0ent was on his
ieet, scarcely able to stand.
They drank the balance Of their "ner'e
tonic" out OF pint bottle. which 10 some
extent restored their equilibrium, but sleep
was out of the question aud they spent the
balance OF the night in stitching mp Mr..
Snyder's trousers 10 make him presontable,
and at early dawn they pulled up stakes
and took solemn oath to never, no never,
bunk at Swift Run again.
