Rurned a Second Time

The little town of Utica, Ill.,, num-
beriDg 1000 people, which was SO near
ly wiped out by fire last summer, was
again visited by the scourge on the
morning Of the 2lst. The fire started at
2 o'clock, burning for several hours.
The flames broke out in Coughlin's bar
Der shop. and before the villagers
were fully awakened had envel-
oped the business district. Build
ings that had replaced the ruins
of few months before, burned like tin
der-boxes, and in less than an hour the
entire west side Of Main Street was a
sheet of flame. The fire department
could do nothing, out sent to Ottawa
and La Sale for aid. Six new business
blocks are in ruins. The more promi-
nent losers are: Hazel & Co., Leonard
& Co., d. T. Madden, K. w. Leland, B.
E. Hanley and II. A. Coughlin. The fire
is a severe blow to the village, which
was just renewing its prosperity.

Too Much Water.

A Leadville, COL. dispatch of the 26th,
says: yesterday. after the men en-
gagged in the drift of Laplake mine had
fired round of holes they were aston
ished by hearing a noise resembling
the rushing of a mighty river, and when
the smoke cleared, they saw from where
they stood river running out of the
drift They had barely time 10 escape,
and in less than five hours the mine
was flooded within go feet of the
surface. Four Thousand feet of drift ore
is submerged, and thousands of slopes
are covered. and many think lake was
encountered, and that when an open
ing was made by the shots it burst
through the thin barrier ard flooded
the nine. If it proves to be a pocket
of water very valuable mineral will be
found behind it, as that has been the
rule heretofore. In this case the water
can be pumped out IN thirty days. but

Venerable Idol.

An elliptcaI-shaped gray stone,
probably two feet in length and
about six inches in diameter, was re-
ceived at the White House a day or
two ago, accompanied by letter
from Governor Prince of New Mexico.
He stated that the stone was of the
idol age, anterior to the arrival of the
WesterncOntinent, and it knownwas to
be over three hundredyearsold. Among
the Pueblo Indians the stone was
as household god, an examination
showed That with some rude tools an
attempt has been made to depict eyes,
nose and mouth on the upper fiat
portion, while in the center crossed
hands are easily discernible. 1t now
rests on a shelf just above Private
Secretary HalfOrd's desk, and as a
companion piece there is a primitive
g0ard, which was sent to the White
House by North Carolina Re. ubIi-
