MASONIC TEMPLE,
Damaged to the Extent of $350,OOO
by Fire Yesterday.

Boston, Mass. September Mason
ic Temple, one OF the finest Masonic
buildings in the United States, was al
most entirely destroyed by fire to-day.
The building was magnifcently fur
nished.
The fire was discovered by passer-
by at 1905, and a few moments later
an alarm was given from box 53, noted
as being located in one of the most
| dangerous fire districts in the city.
At almost the same time an alarm was
sent In from box 729 in the Parker
House, and all the fire apparatus down
town hurried to the corner of fremont
! and School streets. The blaze here
proved to be trivial, but the confusion
resulting from the almost simultaneous
alarms gave the fire in the Temple
a good start before the apparatus ar
rived.
A tube on Chemical Engine No. 2
exploded, and Lieutenant Madden. who
was working on the engine, was thrown
to the ground and possibly fatally in
| jured. He struck on his head and his
skull was fractured.
Above the second floor the Temple
is practically destroyed. The library,
one of the most valuable In the coun-
try, and the museum of relics on the
second floor escaped serious damage.
All OF the regalia rooms on the third
floor were gutted and their contents,
the regalias of many of the command
cries. were destroyed
Twenty-six lodges and commander
les met in the rooms OF the building,
and nearly all of these viii sustain
some loss. II is almost impossible to
make an accurate estimate Of the
losses, because of the many interests
represented, but il is believed that it
will reach about 100000. The build
ing was insured for $165,000, and it is
estimated the structure is damaged to
the extent of 100000.
District Chief Regan, while directing
the efforts of his men from the tower
nearly twenty feet above the roof, was
suddenly Obliged to fly for his life
from t5le smoke and flames. He scram-
bled down and sought safety along a
narrow ledge, four inches wide.
After an hour and a half the fire
was under control.
All OF the regalla OF the ScOJtlsn
Rite, one of the most expensive out
fits in the Masonic order was destroy
ed. and the Gothic hall, Egyptian hall
and Red rooms, with their valuable
tapestries and furnishings, were ru-
ined A number of the valuable paint
ings were saved.
The Boston Commandery has
blanket insurance of $4,000 on its re-
galias and uniforms, and it is thought
the others are covered in a like man
ner.
Several accidents occurred during
the fire. District Chief Egan was car
ried by the falling roof thirty feet, sus-
tanning a broken leg and injuries to
his head. and severe internal injuries.
Fireman James Downey was struck on
the head with roof slate.

all of the other requisites for neat

the little garments these pretty girls
make at the Lenten sewing classes.
Yes, pretty girls, for it is needless to
say maiden has to be blessed beyond
the ordinary in the matter of looks
when she gets a silver work-basket:
much less the kind of basket [ saw
just before it was sent up Fifth avenue
to the belle of the whole Four Hun
dred
The young Croesus who gave the or
der argued that this particular young
maiden had no sewing appliances what
ever, or else he wanted everything in
this gem of basket to be of the same
pattern and d esign, or, best of all. he
wanted her to think of him when she
put on her thimble, when she threaded
her needle and when she cut every lit
tie silken scrap.
The jeweIed thimbles in stock range
from $50 to SIS. but none of these were
fine enough for the taper fingers of his
beloved, so he ordered one that should
be exquisitely beautiful without any re-
gard TO cost, and he got one that de-
served place in the Museum of Art,
for it is probably the most costly thin
BILE in the world, the price paid being
$3.50. Around the bottom is a row of
diamonds, the stones baing so large that
it only takes eight to complete the cir
clet. These stones, as we'll as the tiny
diamond-studded monogram, are sunk
well into the gold, so that there will be
no Inconvenience from the thread
catching in the setting as the taper
fingers fly along the seams.

AN AMERICAN DUCHESS
WIDOWED DUCHESS OF MAN
CHESTER.
FORMERLY MISS YZNAGA.
She Controls Six Church Livin=s
Pending the Time When Her
Son Comes of Age.

Of all the fair Americans who have
married titled foreigners there is no one
who stands higher in the good graces
of the Prince of Wales-and especially
in those of the princess-than the wild
owed Duchess of Manchester, nee
Yznaga. She and her pretty daughters
are frequent and welcome guests at
Sandringham, where the princess in
particular does everything in her power
to show her fondness as well as her
sympathy for the duchess, whose mar
ried life has not been precisely of the
happiest Married in 1876 at New York
to the late Duke OF Manchester, who at
that time bore the title of Lord Mande-
vile, she soon achieved popularity and
success in London, and displayed not
only considerable sense, but also much
tact in at once winning the regard and

goodwill of her mother-in-law, than
whom there is no lady who possesses
greater social influence and prestige in
England. Indeed, in all the subsequent
disagreements between the American
born duchess and her husband-dis-
agreements due entirely to the latter's
misconduct - his mother invariably
sided with her daughter-in-Iaw
The duchess has three children, a son,
the present Duke of Manchester. who is
at Elton pursuing his studies, and twin
daughters, who, Notwithstanding that
they are not yet seventeen years of
age, attract much attention in Lon
don by their beauty. Whatever prop
erty and entailed estates belong to the
dukedom of Manchester are now under
the control of the duchess, at any rate
until her son attains his majority, her
mother-in-law, the widow of the sew
enth duke, having now married the
Duke of Devonshire. There is yet
another Duchess of Manchester, the
widow of the sixth duke, who lives in
deep retirement and who is relatively
unknown in society. She was a Miss
Dobbs, and on the death of the duke be-
came the wife of Sir Stephenson Black
wood, of the general postoffice. She
takes a leading part in the evangelistic
movement and in church work, leav-
ing to the daughter of Don Antonio
Yznaga, of New York and Louisiana,
the task of maintaining unimpaired the
traditions of wit, brilliancy and beauty
of the Duchesses of Manchester.
Until the majority of her son the
Duchess of Manchester will retain con-
troll of the patronage of the six church
livings belonging to the dukedom.
That is to say, she has the appoint-
ment of the rectors and clergy of six
important and densely populated par
! ishes, and is virtually responsible for
the spiritual welfare of the people re-
siding therein. The dukedom is by no
means a rich one, and the income of
the duchess is sadly crippled by the
heavy charges on the entailed estates
in the shape of the jOinture to the
widow of the sixth duke and by the
annuities payable to the late dukes
sister, the Duchess of Hamilton, the
Countess of Gosford, and Lady Alice
Stanley, as well as to their brother
Lord Charles Montagu, who is a stock
broker.

Special Correspondence of the Globe.
NEW YORK. Feb. 14.-Among the
newest novelties just now at the
Maison Redfern, first and foremost
are boomers of all descriptions, from
heavy tweeds to soft silk ones. The
very new style for spring and sum-
mer are to be in the daintiest silks,
both fancy and plain. The pale tints,
such as blue, pink, mauve and deli
cate shades of greens, will be much
favored; in many cases they will be
made to match the gown.
How very convenient this mode
of dress will be for lawn tennis play
ers, leaving the limbs so nice and
free. The light dress skirt is not
any real impeachment to movement.
1t is the numerous underskirts that
are so clinging and in the way. What
pity it is that poor Mrs. Amelia
BlOOmer, who was so much ridi-
cuIed, is not here to see the Won
derful improvements made to her
invention. If ever anything was
frightful in the way of dress, it
was her dreadful get up" She had
but little idea how it would take"
in the coming years, but presenting
a very difference appearance. Worn
as they are today, it does not neces-
state that the Wearer should look
masculine by any means. Some peo-
pie get this foolish idea in their
heads, and it is quite utterly wrong
| am very much against any man
ly'' style of dress for women. They
can be gowned in a way that will
insure them both comfort and freed
ON in movement, while at the same
time they appear all that is graceful
and dainty, as it is the duty of
every woman to endeavOr to appear,
and so give pleasure to herself and
also to all who look upon her.
All the Redfern establishments
have taken up and made the making
of boomers quite a speciality, so
much so that the demands for them
at all their houses are numerous, as
much for the soft silk ones in the ac-
Gordon pleating as for those COM
posed of the heavier materials.
Black satin is the most favored so
far One and all are lined with
pretty silks. Smart tweed suits with
knickerbockers of the same material
and CATERS to meet them are surely
as warm costumes as one can want,
even at the present time. This will
also be found a typical costume for
skating, in which case the skirt
should reach to the top of the boots,
that is to say, about three inches off
the ground, so that one has full
scope for the feet and a chance of
enjoying a good health-giving eXer-
else. The two sketches that our art
list has taken at the ever-attractive
salons of the English tailoring
establishment show the latest thing
they are making in this style of cos
tune, and show also that they can
be worn charmingly with all sum-
mer, and especially tennis dresses.

CELLS SUNK IN THE EARTH
Two Air1ess Dungeons in n New
Jersey Prison Being Used.

In the county Jail in New Bruns-
wick, N. J., there are two dungeon
cells, the like of which cannot be
found in the prisons of even darkest
Siberia. These dungeons are en-
tirely underground. They are stone
cells, bare of furniture save
filthy mattress. An iron ring is fixed
in the floor, to which the prisoners
who are unfortunate enough to be
confined there are chained The
stone dungeons in the Weathers-
field, Conn.,, state prison, which
heretofore have been spoken of as
the only remaining relics of bar
barism in this country, are palaces
of luxury when compared with the
damp, dark underground holes of the
MiddleseX county jail. The Jail is
under the charge of Sheriff Richard
SerViSS, of MiddleSeX county. He is
a kind, easy-going, fatherly old
man, who was elected to the office a
year ago. His residence is in the
Jail. The care of he prisoners has
been intrusted by him to James
Grady, a well-built, middle-aged
man, who tries to do the best he can,
but believes in putting men into the
underground dungeon ito keep
things quiet after 8 p. m.," as he
said to a New York World reporter.
There is absolutely no ventilation in
these dungeons. There are three
steam pipes overhead, and when
the trap door is closed, and even
when it is open, the atmosphere is
deadly. The dungeons have been in
use for many years.

MAKING A SULTAN.
1t Depends Upon the Man With
the Most Influence.

Nineteenth Century.
The emperors of Morocco do not
succeed to the crown by right of in
heritance. Theoretically they are
chosen by the people from among
the descendants of the Moham-
medan prophet: practically they are
placed upon the throne by some
palace intrigue, or by the influence
of some man or body of men power
full and energetic enough on the
death of a sultan, to seize the reins
of power, to bride the soldiery in the
vicinity Of the palace, to destroy,
Danish or outwit the other claimants
to power, and to effect the procIama-
ton in due form of the sultan of his
or their choice
The late emperor became sover-
eign in no different manner from
that of his predecessors. 1t need
hardly be said that the man who in
terferes in the election of the mon
arch of Morocco risks all upon the
cast of the die. If he fails and the
3 rival claimant be successful, the
would-be king-maker and all of his
kith and kin may consider them
selves fortunate if, by a precipitate
flight, leaving all their worldly
goods behind them, they are able to
escape from death and possibly
from torture. The man, therefore,
who succeeds in placing a sovereign
rTon the throne of Morocco has the
strongest possible claim on the graf
itude of the autocrat whom he has
successfully installed in power.
How did the late sultan reward
the subject who risked for him his
life and possessions? Some time
: after his accession, when he began
to feel himself secure upon the
throne, and without even the pre-
tense of a quarrel or of an accusa-
ton, the late emperor cast this man
into one of his dungeons, and there
he remained until a few months ago,
when he was at length released,
after an Imprisonment of fourteen
years. The motive for this crime
was probably fear lest the chief who
had been powerful enough to raise
him to the throne might some day
use his influence in favor Of another.

GOLDEN STITCHES.
SEWING TOOLS WHICH COST w
LADY THOUSANDS.
PRETTY JEWELED THIMBLE.
The Silver Work Basket Can he
Had for Couple of hundred.
Needle Cases Cost More.

This will read like a fairy tale, or a
little piece of the Arabian Nights, but
it isn't, for l saw it with my eyes, and
so may you, any day you will drop into
Tiffany's and ask to see a fin de steele
work-basket, and the things which all
properly equipped work-baskets should
hold.
To begin with the basket: This was
of silver, and the thread-Iike metal
was woven into a clever representa- ton
of basket work. 1t was not much larger
round than dinner plate. but when it
was lined with chamois. tinted a deli
cate shell pink, with compartments
cIeverly devised for scissors case,
thimble case. needle case and almost a
dozen more cases, the cost was $225.
The majority of people who buy sill
yer work-baskets to give away to their
friends, stop short at the basket. ve-

women have been endowed upon vari-

$500 FOR SCISSORS.

The scissors case was a tempting little
affair of pink channels, with the mono
gram in gold outlined with small dia-
monds, and inside were six pairs of
scissors of varying sizes. Such scis-
sors, blades of wonderful tempered
steel and quantity shaped handles of
solid gold, with the monogram repeated
on each pair in flashing diamonds. The
cost of this addition to the work
basket was $500 even, $50 for the case
and the rest for the scissors.
Two new-fashioned needle cases went
with the set. At a glance you would
take them for match boxes, but a
closer inspection showed that they
opened literally, and inside of each
was space for four papers of needles.
The cases were of gold, and the tall
monograms were after the fashions of
the others, set in beautiful, fire-hash-
ing jewels. The cost of the two was
$3.50. 1t did seem n shame. but there
were no gold or even silver needles
to go into these luxurious cases. with
