The Ecr-uson Eisl,ers

The disciples of Sir Isaac Walton,
who habitat about the Ferguson House
organized themselves into piscatorial
club last week and by various manou-
vres and "tricks that are vain" possess
ed themselves of some rods and tackle

Master Harry Appelget The pisca-
tofialIy inclined party spent a pleas
ant day with the usual mishaps Of am
bilious anglers while handling the rod
and line with consummate skill. So
many and so large were the tinny
beauties they landed, that the usual
fish stories will not fit. They are all
4,uthful to degree and when they say
that a freight car was needed to bring
in the fish no one should doubt it.
White caught one fish that when he
landed IL the water in the river fell
two feet. Appelget brought home the
left wing of one he caught and Ham
and Dndge have others on their hooks
awaiting team to haul them ashore.
There will he no water at all in the
Cheyenne when these splendid speci-
mems Of the genus mlnnow are landed.
Master Harry won the honors Of the
occasion and brought home a nice
string Of shining fishes that We're pala-
table as trout. Harry is most expert
and only prevaricating fisherman in
the club.

Carrying of a body.

plosiOn Of a cOal-oil lamp the flames quickly
made their way TO the bed of their victim,
and soon placed the hand of death upon
her. One wild, despairing shrek as the
flames tirstswept over her she uttered and
then probably became unconscious The
devOuring element was not satisfied with
her lite. 1t burned her clothes aud body
until little more than q charred, blackened
mass OF flesh and bones remained This
was the si"kenlng spectacle that met the
eyes OF the II emen as they forced their way
to the room and turned a stream upon the
charred remains Of the unfortunate woman.
In the meantime the fire continued to
spread upward and downward and soon the
second tfoOr was also a SETTLING mass of
flames. The second and third floors we're
both deluged and within half an hour the
flames were under control. By O'Clock
the fire was completely eXtingushed
1t was at first supposed that several per-
sons had persisted in the flames, but when
the friends OF the OccupantS called the roll
of inmates no one but Lee Mar seemed to
be missing. Her body was wrapped in a
tarpaulin and lowered out of the third-storv
moved to the Morgue. No one seemed to
know anything about the fires victim be-
yond her DGme, age and infrmtties.
Fire Marshal Towe estimated the loss Of
the building at nearly $4,000 This
amount, he said, was fully covered by in
surance. The damages caused BY the de-
struction of the personal effects of many of
the dodgers amounted to several thousand
dollars more.
8 During the progress Of the fire there were
several minor accidents TO tiremen, but none
were seriously injured. While forcing open
door on the ground floor Of the building
Captain Douglass received an ugly cut on
! the right hand from piece of tin.
Several well-known pickpockets mingled
in among the spectators. One of them, Gus
Williams, alias Ford, was caught in the act

third floors was divided into small rooms
by thin wooden partitions. In all there
were 100 small rooms on the two floors let
for lodgings, and each was occupied by from
two TO three Chinese Of the lower classes.
The ground floor was occupied by brOthels.
Nearly 200 persons were IN the building
at 2:55 O'Clock yesterday afternoon, when
smoke was discovered issuing from a room
Oh the northwest corner Of the third floor.
In an instant there was a great confusion
and uprOar among the dodgers. Some had
been compelled TO flee from the flames on
previous occasions, and experience had
taught them that delays were exceedingly
dangerous in that's rickety, infiammable
structure There was great scramble an d
babel of tongues as the frightened inmates
almost climbed over each other in their
haste to get down the narrow stairways
leading " the street.
While they were running from the burn
ing building an alarm was sounded from
Station 293 at the corner Of Stockton aud
Jackson streets. BY the time Acting Chief
Engineer Sullivan and several fire engines
arrived the flames had spread throughout
the entire third floor and were bursting out
the roof Clouds of smoke rolled down
into tho narrow, dismal alleys surrounding
the building and almost stted those who
tried To force their way through to the
scene of the fire. Sullivan at once ordered
another alarm sounded from Box 293, which
summoned all the apparatus In the district.
Thous tnds of spectators assembled and at
first retarded the movements Of the tremen.
Captain Douglass and a squad Of police
were soon on hand and stretched ropes
across the street to keep the crowds at
distance. Within few minutes six streams
were playing upon the flames, but the fire
laddies had to make gallant fight to keep
them from spreading to the adjoining struct-
ures. A ladder was run up TO the third
floor from Sullivan alley, and from Baker
alley on the north side. The tOrtuous stair
ways also furnished other means Of egress.
| The brave men who first stepped inside the
blazing structure were almost overcome by
the heat and smoke.
II was TumOred that several persons were
imprisoned in those rooms through which
the fire was spreading with such rapdty.
| This caused The fre-hghters 10 increase their
energies, and as room after room was
reached the heat became so intense that it
was almost unbeatable. On a mattress in
one room lay two Chinese, who were prob
ably Supplied by opium before the fire
started. They had been deserted by fright
ened comrades, but the fremen soon mad
them out in the open air, and in few min
utes they revived and SUNK away.
Not so fortunate was kee Mar, blind,
bed-ridden Chinese woman, 81 years of age,
who lay on bed in a room where the fire
started When the flames first burst forth
she was deserted, and, being unable to
make her escape, she lay there, helpless
| victim for the greedy flames. From the
floor where they started through the eX-
