A BURSTED KILN,
Tracy Brothers & Co.'s Pottery
Works Destroyed by Fire.

An explosion that shook up and startled
the neig borhood of Seven teenth street and
Santa Clara avenue occurred last evening,
and two minutes later flames burst out from
the center Of the pottery works of Tracy
Bros. & Co.
AT 30 o'clock an alarm was turned in
from Box 146. and when the department
arrived On the scene the flames had too
much Roadway to admit Of the establish
ment being saved. The buildings were of
wood, and attention was therefore devoted
10 saving the surrounding structures. Live
cinders were drifting toward the furniture
factory OF the Kreling Bros. and were be-
Ing waited also dangerously near a long
train Of cars laden with hay, which was
side-;racked near the fire.
Engines were therefore sent from the
Sixteenth and Harrison street round house
to pull the cars out of danger. The bril-
llancy OF the conflagration attracted null
tltude of people. No wind prevailed at the
time, and a second alarm was deemed un-
necessary as long as there was possibility
Of confining the flames to the already
doomed structure. AS 1t Was 1t required
nearly three-quarters of an hour before the
fire had burned itself out.
Then 1t was found that the head Of one of
the kllns was blown out, caused oy the ex-
plosion that was heard SO far and wide.
hO UtIcl tNU Hills were ucSlCOYSu alter
ward. Each is valued at $4,000 and their
content. at 5000. A valuable stock Of
terra Gotta was also destroyed, with hun
dreds of feet Of iron-stone sewer-pipe and
other wares manufactured by the firm.
Tracy Brothers & Co. estimate their loss
at about $4,000. The machinery alone, said
Bernard Tracy, WAS worth $4,000 and the
building fully $1,000 The accumulation of
gas in one of the kilns is given as the cause
OF the disastrous explosion. AT the moment
the fire broke out the watchman employed
at ;he factory had just called at the resi-
dence of b. A Tracy, 6l6h Nineteenth
street There we're not more than dozen
men emplOyed in the buildLng.

Runners at the Ferry and a Family in
Distress.
The truth of the old saying, zone touch
of nature makes the whole world kim" was
never better exemplfied than last evening
down at the ferry-ianding at the foot of
Market street when the hackmen and hotel
runners who nightly assemble there show ed
that underneath their rough exteriors they
have warm hearts and good share of the
fellow-feeling that makes US wondrous
kind. 4
About o'clock delicate appearing, re-
specially dressed woman about 40 years of
age entered the wating-room accompanied
by six children, the eldest not over 10 years
of age and the youngest babe just out of
arms. BY and by the young ones COM
menced to cry. One of the hackmen who
spoke 10 them was told by the woman that
her name was Mrs. Baker and that she was
on her way from Los Angeles with her six
children to join her husband at Tacoma.
She had had enough money to purchase
tickets and was going on the Portland train.
which left at O'Clock. She had not a cent
OF money left and she and the little ones
were hungry, having had nothing to eat for
some hours.
The hackman went out and told the boys
and they soon started to make collection.
John Lyons, proprietor of the New CONT
neut 6oteli nearu oil II, ana, placing the
whole family in his coach, took them TO his
hotel, gave them a good square meal and
then brought them back to the ferry. The
story got bruited around and Deputy As
SCISSOR John l.. Fichthaler made a collection
for the woman's benefit All the hackmen
and runners the police officers and many
passengers contributed. One gentleman
put half dollar i'll the hat on general prin-
ciples, and then when he heard the story
said: 'See kids suffer? No, Eve got.kids of
my own; hold on, here's dollar and half
more, all I've got on me-" When Flchthaler
finished his round he handed Mrs. Baker
S21 80 and she thanked him with tears of
gratitude running down her checks.
Before the boat left Mr.. Dolan, the run
ner, went round TO the restaurants near the
ferry with big basket and soon returned
with it full to overlooking with good SUBJ
stantial food and some bottles OF milk for
the baby. AS he said, "they all Clipped in"
AS the family went on the boat Harry
Morse. who was going over, handed her So,
and on the trip across he and Captain Poole
collected $50 more from sympathizing pas
sengerS, SO that Mrs. Baker left Oak and
Moe on her journey with over $50 and q
light heart and when she gets to her new
home her thoughts Will no doubt sometimes
revert to the boys at the ferry who, being
friends in need, were friends indeed.

Adventure of The Pretty Daughter of a

Recently, when the crowd on PenDsylya-
MIA avenue. Washington, was largest, pc
culiar accident happened in front Of one of
the large jewelry stores on that great thor
oughfare. A pretty daughter of promi-
nent member of Congress happened TO be
passing the window, and being attracted by
the holiday goods therein. stepped up to the
tempting display, and in doing so did not
notice that the glass grating that lights the
vault below the sidewalk was broken.
The young lady stood for a few moments
before the window, when suddenly she
screamed and seemed to lose about foot Of
her stature. Then she struggled, but in
vain. The glass had given away just enough
to let her little foot slip in the crevice and
hold it fast. In vain did she endeavor to
extract it, and finally she sat down on the
fla gstones and began to cry from fright and
pain and modification.
Size was at once surrounded by a crowd.
The police came and made the people stand
back. Then the proprietor of the store sent
to machine-shop for a couple Of men. and
they came with saws, hammers and crow
bars, and after half-hour's work freed
the foot and released the blushing prisoner

SPORTING EVENTS.
What John Teemer, the Oarsman,
Has to Say.

Although many matters pertaining to
sporting have occupied the attention of the
sporting fraternity within the past week.
the fact seems to have been lost sight of
that the celebrated oarsman, John Teemer.
has been staying at the Grand Hotel for the
past week under an assumed name, princi-
pally on account of his desire to take passage
on the next steamer for Australia.
The recent cablegrams reporting the defeat
of Stansberry by Mclean have changed the
opinion of Teemer, and he will now await
the arrival o. the newcomers from Australia
before he makes. up his mind to an ocean
voyage to Australia.
Teemer says that he is not particularly
anxious 10 visit new country, and as a mat
ter OF fact he Will await the arrival of the
next Australian steamer before he makes up
his mind as to his future course.

anxious to meet me-" said 1eemer, 81 will

race of three miles for $500 q side. OF

Exciting Encounter in aSpokane
Falls Courtroom.
The Outcome Of a Conflict Between City
and Judicial Authorities.
Short but Lively Bout Between the Mayor
and Three AitorneyS-A Scene
Of Wild Confusion.


SPOKANE FALLS, Dec, 4.-Judge Blake's
department of the Superior Court was the
scene to-day of an exciting free fight, in
which Mayor Clough. Attorneys Turner,
Graves and Flynn and the officers of the
: court participated. For few moments there
was tremendous uproar. The fight was
the result of conflict between the city and
judicial authorities. Judge Blake rendered
judgment against the city for $1,000, in
favor of ex-Police Justice Curry. Mayor
Clough refused to sign the warrant and was
arrested Tor contempt Of court. Charles S.
VOORHEES,, attorney for the city, in address,
ing the Court said it was an outrage that the
Mayor should be summarily arrested on a
charge. the penalty of which was imprison-
ment in the penilentiary. Attorney George
Turner, prominent politician, retorted
that it might have been better for the city
if the whole municipal Government had
been in the penitentary for the past two
years.
After the court adjourned and while the
men were leaving the room, Mayor Clough
approached Turner and said that his re-
marks were uncalled tor, and that his law
firm had been mixed up in every dirty case
with the city. Turner then struck at Clough.
Some say the Mayor was knocked down;
others that he lodged the blow ard fell over
a chair, and Turner jumped upon the pres
trate man. Thereupon Attorney Quinn
sought to pull him off. Frank Graves,
Turner's former law partner, then jumped
on Quinn. Tie Sheriff, deputies and con-
stables then rushed in. The Judge pounded
