town early Sunday morning to find the

place on the Alabama Great Southern
railroad. There the roof was taken off
the depot, and the telegraph operator
was left sitting at his desk unframed.
The house of John owen was lifted
twenty feet off the ground and dashed

FATALLY. At Helena, number OF build
ingS were blown down, and others un-
rooted. Your persons were dangerous

Helena was through the country away

damage is unknown. The tail-end of if

few houses were blown down and Others
unrooled. The telegraph lines suffered
great damage.

CAR SHOPS BURNED.



Drainsrd-
BRAlNERD, Jan. 27.---People ID this
city are greatly excited by another fire,
which In all respects confirms the suS-
picion that some incehdiary is following
out his hellish bent to destroy property.
At an early hour yesterday morning one
OF the Northern Pacific car shops, in
their extensive works on the east side,
was suddenly wrapped in flames, appar-
emily from one end to tho other. This
Is building warmed by stoves, but none
were kept burning over Sunday and
there was supposed to be no fire In them.
The shop being Of wood and having for
years past been used as paint shop,
was rapidly destroyed, together with al
tho contents. The loss will reach $40, 600
to $4,000. insured under the com.
panies blanket insurance. The loss,
however, is very serious ono to the
workmen employed In tho yard, who
were at work on cars. They had their
tools stored In the building. Its known
that some eight or. ten coaches on the
stocks. in various stages Of repair, were
lost.
The shop destroyed was about the last
remaining one of the original shops built
by the company under the Jay Cook
management. The building stood very
central to tho company's main works,
but all the newer buildings are OF fire.
proof construction and are uninjured.
1t is the understanding here that the
company must Immediately rebuild, 80
great Is the pressure of work: in fact a
large new building had been expected
this year, and the present loss greatly
Increases the necessity for It. The en-
ployes burned out will not be thrown out
OF employment, but will be used else
where about tho works.
