He started in years ago a watchman on

THE FOG THIS MORNING.
1t EnvelOped the Entire City and
Made u Scene of Peculiar Beauty.

1t EnveIOpcd the Entire City and
Made u Scene of Peculiar Beauty.
Washin gtonians who are early risers were
treated to a scene of unusual briliancy and
beauty this morning. A fog that was re-
markably heavy for this neighborhood hung
over the city like a huge pail, and at an
early hour was so dense as to be fairly COM
parable to a famous London fog. Unfortu-
pately, Anglomaniacs are fond of lying in
bed late and having their tea and toast
brought to them, so that they missed the
delight of being reminded of 'deah old Lun-
non," and the milkmen and car drivers got
the best of it.
In fact, traffic on the streets was inter-
fered with in no inconsiderable degree. and
cable cars had their headlights blazing as
though it had been midnight. Curiously
enough, the mist seemed TO hang densest
about the Capitol, and from nearby point
of view 1t made a wonderfully beautiful
background for the great dome when tinged
by the rays of the rising sun. Above the fog
rose the noble shaft of the Washington
monument, warmed to a gorgeous pink by
the early light. AS the sun rose higher the
fog began to dissipate, leaving the city
wrapped in a warm, delicate haze, which
softened rough corners, made plain struc-
lures fair and added the charm of pictur
esque vagueness to the scene as the city
lay basking in the first light of a glorious
fall day. One may say all he wishes to Of
the delights of ST. Peters, the glory of Ven
ice at sunset and the mystic beauty of the
pyramids by moonlight, but there are many
who think-good judges of beauty, too. and
people of taste-that there Is no more glori-
Gus or inspiring sight than the broad sweep
of the avenue rom 18th street, with the
vista closed by the noble Capitol, viewed in
the haze Of fair Indiansummer morning.

Three Employees Lost Their Lives Try

DETROIT, Mich, November 16.-Another
fire, attended with terrible fatalities, oc-
CURED about $3.50 o'clock this morning,
when the factory Of the Improved Match
Company, at Bellevue avenue and Freder-
lex street, was burned and three lives lost.
The dead are: Reuben Davis. night watch
man, forty-three years old, single; John
Wagner, night watchman, an elderly man,
married; Agnes Yettke, seventeen years
old.
The factory had been working night and
day. About $50 o'clock thirty hands were
busily employed, when the fire sudd emily
started probably by friction. The flames
spread with great rapidity. All the EN-
ployes except the three named escaped.
Davis and Wagner, assisted by the Yettke
to put out the fire. Before they were
aware of their danger flames sprung up
all around them and they were unable to
csc ape.
After destroying the main building and
gutting the smaller one the fire burned
itself out The bodies of Davis and Miss
Yettke were recovered, burned beyond
recognition. The building, machinery and
stock destroyed were valued at 100000; in
sured $1,000

CAPT. HOwGATE,s TERM.
He is Calm and Ready to Begin Serv-
ing His Sentence.


ing His Sentence.
Warden Leonard of the District Jail
stated, this afternoon, that he did not know
just when he would transfer Capt. Henry
w. Howgate to the Albany penitentiary to
serve the sentence Of eight years imposed
by Judge McComas the I'd of last July. The
warden thought, however, that his dis
tinguished prisoner would go with the next
batch of convicts, which might be some
time next week.
Capt Howgate, 1t is said, is quite ready
to 90 whenever the time arrives, and is said
to be preserving the same remarkable CALM
ness and fortitude which has been always
Characteristic of the man. He is sIxty-one
years of age and it was stated at the City
Hall today that his actual term of imprs-
CT ment would be slightly less than five
years.
The sentence was directed by Judge Nc
Comas to take effect from the day of i'm
position July ,, and somewhat more than
four months of it has already expired 1t
ia now said that the two sentences of four
years on the two indictments will be
treated by the penitertiary authorities as
one sentence, and the prisoner, by good
conduct in prison, will, therefore, secure a
reduction of thirty-three months. Adding
to that the four months since the IMPOSE
ton of the sentence and the actual term
of Imprisonment will be, 1t Is claimed, eight
years, less thirty-seven months. That Is,
four years and eleven months.
