TACOMA, WASH, January 21.-Henry

was converted last fall, and has since
conducted religious services in iails,
hospitals!and missions as a sort of rival
of the Salvation Army. She refused
yesterday to have anything to do with
her husbands fruit and cigar store be-
cause he wanted to keep it open on
Sundays. Bratton was afraid his wife

Destroyed by Fire Narrow
Escape for the Family.

The one-story, six-room frame resi-
dence of w. P. Quisenberry on Craig
street in the northeastern part of the
city was entirely destroyedby fireTues-
day morning. About $50 O'Clock that
morning some neighbors observed the
kitchen of Mr.. Quisenberry's residence
in flames and Immediately aroused the
family, who were still soundly Sleep
ing. They barely escaped; having no
time to save any of the furnishings or
many of theirSclotAes. The alarm was
Immediately gwen and the alert fire
company was soon on hand. The hose
was attached to the water hydrant
near Major H. A. Ricketts, residence
on East Monroe street and IL stretch of
1850 feet of hose reached the burning
building. The flames, however, had
gained such a start before the alarm
was ever given that by the time the
fire company was on hand the whole
house was nearly entirely consumed.
The fire was quenched and kept from
spreading to the neighborlng build
ings. The smoke house also burned.
A chicken house and the barn escaped
the fury of the flames. The residence
vas built several years ago at a cost of
about S1,400. 1t was insured for 5000.
The smoke house was insured for 800.
The household goods, which were all
destroyed, were insured for $500. The
chicken house is insured for SI5U ana
the barn for $50. The two latter build
ings did not burn. The insurance on
all the buildings, amounting to about
81, 200, is with the insurance firm of j.
D. Tucker & Son, of this city. The fire
evidently caught from the kitchen.
Mr.. Quisenberry has not yet decided
whether he will rebuild his residence.
