were instantly killed and two injured.
During the ten years ending June 80,

5,045, there were 2.l9l mail trains

We adult the indebtedness of our
service TO the railroads of the country.
Indeed, it could not exist but Cor them.
The railway companies. as a rule, recog-
nlZe the value of good mail service,
both In the development of new cOun-

prosperity of an old one, and they have
stood ready to provide the best facilities
which inventive genius could suggest
for the perfection of our system. In
cars sixty feet in length. handsomely

steam, the postal clerk on trunk line
proSecutes his work. Such conyeniences
were not dreamed of by the pioneer or

honest, prompt and accurate mail sery-
Ice is to your success and welfare. We
claim no exemption from frailties and

other Fiery Furnace


other Fiery Furnace.
At O'Clock last evening smoke was
seen issuing from the basement of the
store occupied by Mccarthy & Donnelly
at 80 Wabasha street. An alarm was
turned IN from the box at the corner of
Sixth and Wabasha streets, and the de
partment was quickly on the scene.
The smoke was pouring from the build
ing i'll dense volumes. and as the rear
was in flames, general alarm was
turned in. The fire, which was confined
to the basement and first floor of the
premises occupied by Mccarthy & Don
nelly, was difficult to reach, but in half
an hour was under control. The occu-
pants of the Clifton and Astoria hotels
we're given quite scare owing to the
close proximity of the fire and smoke.
At the Clifton the iron shutters on the
side of the building nearest the fire
we've closed and all danger in this direc-
ton averIed. At the Astoria there was
no cause for alarm, as the only trouble
was from the smoke.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but
it is thought to have been caused bv
spontaneous combustion in the rear
part of the cellar. j. &. DOnneIly. a
member of the firm who had been seated
Ill front OF the store, which was closed
for half an hour, had just stepped across
the street when the fire was discovered.
a guest at the Astoria. who was sitting
in the Office of the hotel adjoining the
store, says ne Smelled smoke for nearly
an hour before the fire was discovered.
and several gentlemen who were sitting
i'll front of the hotel also report that
they noticed strong smell of smoke,
but could not locate it.
The firm estimate their loss at about
$50 900. of which $1,000 is on undertake
ing goods and the balance on church
goods. The Aforementioned class of
goods, while not destroyed by fire, will
be total loss from smoke and water
The loss is covered by all insurance of
$1,000, In companies represented by L.

Rogers u Bro. The building. owned by
st. Paul Lodge No. 2. 1. o. 0. F.. was
damaged TO the extent of $500. which is
covered by insurance.
1t is only about six months since a
disastrous fire took place i'll the same
establishment.
The crowd on the street was immense
The prOmenaderS ran tor the postoffice
corner at the first tap of the bell. andit
was no trouble for them to locate the
fire, for the smoke belched from the
basement in great clouds, and filled
WabaSha street with its fragrance-th the
fragrance that comes from burning
varnlsh and wooden OvercoatS. The
poStoffice steps offered a vantage ground
TO hundreds who grasped the opportu-
nifty with avidity, and the street was
thronged with thousands of people, who
were witnesses to the active operations
of the engines. The smoke from the
rear caused a semi-panic among the
guests of the Astoria ana Clifton hotels,
and baggage was carried out i'll hurry.
The odOr OF the fire fingered in their
rooms for hours after the flames were
under control.

PeriIs of the Service.

The perilous character of a railway
postal clerks occupation is not realized
by the public. His position in a COLI
sion is almost hopeless. Imprisoned in
his car next to the locomotive, with no
chance to see the impending danger,
and no friendly sentinel to give warn
ing, he has little hope for escape when
the crash comes. The statistics of cas-
ualtieS in the service, year by year, tell
the frightful story of brave men killad
at their posts. or Scared and manned
for life in the discharge of theiI duty.
For the families of men thus stricken
down in the service of the public, the
government has nothing to offer but
letters of coincidence.

ment would be glad to offer the helpless
