A Section of Chinatown Destroyed by
Fire Last Evening.
The New Years celebration of the
Chinese in this city was appropriately
capped by large-sized fire last night,
which centered in and consumed several
shanties on the north side of street, be-
tween Second and Third.
An alarm was turned in from box "a.
at Third and j streets, and when the de-
partment arrived the flames were shoot
ing out from the rear and front of the
houses. The porches and lattice work in
the rear OF the shanties burned like fuses,
ana inside was a mass OF flame. Six
lines of hose We're stretched, and the fire
men rushed into the doorways in front
and rear with streams of water.
y second alarm was turned in by Chief
Engineer Guthrie, and No. 3's engine and
cart came down to lend assistance All
three engines were set to work pumping,
and two OF the carts exhausted their sup
ply of hose.
The flremen worked well, and despite
the fact that the structures were all of the
1rallest character and burned like
kindling, the men had the fire under con-
troll in half an hour after their arrival
The large brick building OF the north
east corner, owned by Mrs. Gregory, was
not injured, but the structures adjoining
it for about fifty feet on the east were
gutted. They We're the property of Jacob
Tate and b. u. Steinman, and were oc-
cupied by Chinese exclusively.
a number OF Cinnamon We're in the
cellar smoking opium when the fire
broke out, and for time during it's
progress dozens of them rushed about
frailtically declaring to their countrymen
that seven or eight Cinnamon We're in bed
III the opium dens and would be burned
to DEATH
Officer Goods broke into section of the
sidewalk and with the assistance of Il
young man pulled five men out of the
cellar, while the dense volumes of smoke
We're rolling out of the doorways and
windows.
AT $50 o'clock the whistles announced
that the fire was out, but for some time
atterward a stream Of water was kept
playing on the smoldering Goals in the
cellar
About 5000 people gathered on the
the scene, and the streets and sidewalks
| in the vicinity were thronged.
w hlie running out OF the burning
| building two tiremen fell through an
aperture in the sidewalk into a cellar.
They were rescued Immediately and
found to be but slightly injured.
The fire started in the rear of the build
lngs where some firecrackers were being
exploded.
Chief Guthrie says he viii not allow
any other than brick buildings con-
structed in place of the burned houses,
unless the City Trustees give the prop

1t is doubtless true that parent is not

there is no basis for any such claim in

The Signal Service temperature at A..

while the highest and lowest temperature
was $50 and 300, with light and variable
winds, and clouded sky. The barometri-

On the l9th ana 28th of February one

there was one of the heaviest storms that
was ever experienced in California in
that month, there being over two and a
half inches of rain precipitated.
The barometer yesterday fell more
rapidly than it has done before in long
time, and the prospects are good for rain,
and q good one, too, notwithstanding the

An Amateur Barber Tries the Singing
Act on Pat Fay.
Pat Fay was on fire in the little town OF
Washington on Monday, and although no
alarm was turned in, there was more ex-
citement than if the bridge had collapsed.
Jim Glenn and Pat were on drunk, and
Jim got mad and accused Pat of painting
him.
Pat denied the charge, and raddling to
a corner fell all in heap. Jim waited
until his companion fell asleep, and then
stealing up to him he poured about a pint
of coaf-oil on Pats head.
He had plenty of matches on hand, and
reading the directions on the box, ''You
scratch, and we do the rest" he obeyed,
and in an instant Pats head resembled a
huge torch. There was howl of pain
from the victim, and parties rushed to his
rescue.
Fay was badly burned about the head
and face before the fire was smothered.
Glenn has been arrested.
