People Feel Resigned to the Effects of the

n Especial to the PRESS
Augusta, December 6.-The destruc-
tion by fire Sunday night of the two
frame buildings on Water street, leaves
clean line of brick and granite blocks
on the east side of the street, from the
Kennebec Journal Office building on the
south to the City Hotel on the north.
While majority of the citizens of Au-
gusta felt bad to see valuable property
destroyed by fire, no two buildings on
this street could be better spared, and.as
all the parties were well covered by in
surance there will not be many tears
shed over the loss of the buildings.
Travelling men say there is not finer
looking business street in any city in
Maine than Water street in Augusta.
The two old wooden buildings which
have now gone up IN smoke were the
only "eye sores" on the water SIDE. and
the wish has oft been repeated that these
could be replaced by su bstant1al brlcK
or granite structures.
These stores were bullrt few years
after the great fire here in 1865. They
ERE originally temporary structures,
and were only one story high, to con-
form to a city ordinance passed at that
ime, which prohibited the erection OF a
frame building gilmore than one story.
Hundreds Of these cheap stores were
built at this time, but all have been re-
placed by handsome granite or brick
blocks.
In the meantime, the land on which
one Of these buildings stood got into lit
igation and could not be bought, The
old ordinance has years ago been forgot
ten, and more stories were added to each
of the buildings.
One lot belongs to Hon T. o. Vickery,
the wealthy publisher and real estate
owner. A new brick block will be built
on this lot in the early spring, and If the
lot adjoining can be secured,a nice brick
building will soon take the place of
the now smoking ruins.
