to move hand or foot. Then she started
in pursuit with a wild yell of protest

with the ear that was nearest to Mrs.
Buttons when she yelled As she
rushed through the hall, which led from
her room to the main part OF the house,
she encountered two men who were
bringing up large dish pan full Of
water Mrs. Buttons passed between
them, where the pan was, and the
water it contained dashed down the
stairs like breaking wave upon several
people who were coming up in their
Sunday clothes.
Meanwhile, Maude had taken the
baby to the street. where it very nat
urally began to cry. Maude isn't much
of hand with children, so she gave
the baby to somebody else, who passed
it along to the next; till at last it was
hustled into house some distance from
the scene of the disturbance, and put
into the arms of very nice old lady
who didn't know that there was any
fire, and couldn't understand why, in
the midst of peaceful Sunday morn

rush out again leaving a screaming two
year-old in a long flannel night dress
Nevertheless, she gathered the child to
her motherly bosom, and prepared to do
her full duty by the poor little waif as
she had by her own.
The fire had by this time consumed

Randall's sou theastern chimney, and 1t

Barker, who was just going down to
choir rehearsal, had thrown off his coat
and climbed to the ridgepole, where he
sat and requested water in that clear,
musical tenor which has been the de-
light Of endless congregations. But he
didn't get any water. Somebody had
gone for the engine, and everybody was
waiting for it to come. 1t came pretty
soon, and they ran the suction pipe
down into the captains well, while
Johnny Brooks climbed to the roof with
the hose. Capt. Randalls attic was by
this time full of the cream of the
church going people of Amity Dam.

the window in the roof, and appeared
