In the Same Building, Burned out at
Midnight.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Pittston, June 1.--Smoke was seen is-
suing from the portion of the Howe
building on Main street, occupied by
Perrin's news agency, at midnight, and
few minutes later flames broke forth
furiously. The fire companies were
called out, and 1t required the most
strenuous efforts of the fire laddies to
prevent the blaze from spreading to the
adjoining buildings and possibly caus-
Ing disastrous conflagration.
The building was owned by John
Howe and occupied by Berry's jewelry
store. Fritsch's photograph gallery,
Buss' tailoring establishment, and Per-
rims news agency. 1t burned up fierce
ly and was totally destroyed. The fire
did not damage adjoining buildings and
was put out at 2 a. m.
The origin of the fire Is unknown,
neither was it learned whether much
insurance had been carried on the de-
stroyed stock. Perrin's loss is not esti-
mated; Berry's loss is s1,5OO; Fritsch's
$500, and Buss' $1,000. The building
was worth $1,000.

signs of life.

gained consciousness for n short time,

Mine A Blazing FURNACE
Serious Fire at Wyoming Colliery, at
Port BOWkley.
TWO MEN ARE BADLY BURNED
Patrick J. buddy. Mine Boss, and Morgan
Bcvan, Timbcrman. Arc Caught In
IN ExplOsiOn-lIcrOio Efforts
Mt Fighting Flames.

Wilkes-Barre, Pa, May 31.-A fire Of
a most serious nature broke out in the
North shaft OF the Wyoming colliery
of the hehigh Valley Coal company at
Port Bowkley today, and at II o'clock
tonight was burning flercely, and fully
500 Aeet OF the gangway was a blazing
furnace.
A terrific explosion also was caused
by the fire at 6 o'clock this evening, and
Patrick j. buddy, a mine boss, and Nor
gan Bevan, a timberman, were badly
burned. The cause of the fire is laid to q
Polish miner who was at work in his
breast of the mine and the way he set off
small feeder Of gas. He endeavored to
extinguish the flames, but was unable
to do so, and without raising an alarm
or notifying any one, he made his way
to the foot of the shaft and went hme.
The flames made rapid headway and
soon spread to the timbers and brattice
work, and the first intimation that any
thing was wrong came through the
smell OF smoke that made It's way
through the mine and was drawn to the
surface by the fan.
The mine bosses and fire bosses at
once located the blaze and realizing that
they had hard fight before them be-
gan active preparations at once to SUBJ
due the flames.
Fighting the Flames.
At 10 o'clock nearly 5000 feet Of pipe
had been lowered into the shaft, and
5000 feet more was ordered TO be deliv-
cred at once. Connections will be made
with the nearest pump in the mine
which is at the foot of the shaft, and
from the supply of water on hand they
are in hopes of conquering the flames
with streams played on the fire from
hose.
When the explosion occurred, buddy
and Bevan, who were near by,
were hurled from their feet and each
received bad shaking up, besides Sc
rious burns. To add Ito this misfortune
a fall of roof followed, and Mr.. buddy
was caught and had limb fractured
also. Help soon reached him, and he
was carried to the foot of the shaft.
He and Bevan We're then hoisted to
the surface and taken to their homes.
At the time of the explosion occurred
much excitement prevailed in Port
Bowkley and vicinity, and large crowds
Of men, women and children surround
ed the shaft waiting for news from be-
low.
At midnight tonight the officials In
charge of fighting the flames are con-
fident that they will succeed in putting
out the fire with the hose by Sunday
morning, and that there will be no need
Of flooding the mine. The loss win
be heavy.

LOSS OF CARRIE T.. LONG.
The Oil Vessel Destroyed by n Stroke
OF Lightning.

Philadelphia, May 31.-A cablegram
from Havana was received here today
reporting the loss of the bulk oil carry
Ing bark Carrie Il. Long. from Phila-
delphia for Havana, by being struck by
lightning near the Bahama islands, and
the death of the captain, mate and two
sailors.
The cablegram was from Captain

of the Long, which arrived at Havana
yesterday. He stated the Long had

CHAPTER VII.

A couple of days had passed, the snow
laden winds still blew fiercely, and the
police party were kept close prisoners in
st. Denis ranch. AS for the inspector,
he continued to enjoy long spells of
mental abstraction, lying on his buffalo
robe on the floor before the stove, with
his eyes fixed upon the ceiling. At long
intervals, when he recognized the neces-
sity Of varying this species of entertain
ment, he would adjourn to the stables
where, sticking straw in his mouth;
he would keep the horses company for
half an hour at a stretch. 1t was re-
deeming point in his character that he
seemed fond of animals ga fellow feel
ing makes us wondrous kind. Surely
nature made mistake when she gave
Jamie some semblance of man. Had
she, for instance, made him donkey
four legged one, of course-he might
have posed as her supreme masterpiece.
AS for the sergeant, he seemed
strangely i'll at ease. He could not settle
to read. The friendly little wordy spars
between his youthful comrade and the
CHEEKY little scout seemed to have lost
all attraction for him, and as for indulg
ing in conversation with his superior
officer, as they had not two ideas III
common, that was not to be thought of.
The more fact that the officer was com
paratively uneducated would not have
mattersd in itself, but Jamie, having,
by contact with his brother officers be-
oo~,,o orx,aro - L; Io<i droa1ol
to expose his ignorance more than he.
could help Moreover, being Of jeal
GUS nature, he imagined that when an
educated man talked to him it was SIM
ply for the purpose of mystifying and
ridiculing him. His normal condition,
therefore, when with his intellectual
superiors, was like bear with a sore
head. Jamie, however, would probably
have liked to go into the other room,
and to see little more of that interest
~ by expressions Of his admiration.
But having heard the cunning little
scout whisper to the private Gas if he
feared being overheard that the dipper
still remained full of boiling water up
on The stove in the next room he lost
all interest in the girl, and came to the
conclusion that to talk to one in her po-
sition was derogatory to the dignity Of
an officer of the Northwest mounted pc
lice force.
The others had sawed and cut up suhi-
oient firewood to last the little house
hold for month and stacked it neatly
in one of the outhouses They had kept
the buckets full of water, thrown down
some hay for the few head Of cattle in
the corral and done other necessary
work about the place. Indeed in pure
gallantry Dick Towpley, in spite Of the
protestations and wa aings of Marie St
Denis (whom he seemed very anxious to
favor with his attentions), would insist
on one occasion on milking a certain
COW that the girl warned him, though
quiet enough generally, would probably
resent the ministrations Of stranger.

about this time he began to regret that
he had let SO many golden opportuni-
ties slip. for he had really admired her.
But it was too lates his pride was too
strong for him, and he had left England
without as much as saying goodby. In
six months time he heard that the heir
ess was married, and inconsistency he
ieered at woman 81 inconsistency. Per
haps he did not know that the woman
whom in particular he ,jeered at had
hailed at first with almost satisfaction
the news of his ruined prospects, for she
had thought the gay world would not
have the same hold ON him and she
might win fuller share of his 'affec-
tions-indeed, she had been ready and
waiting to accept him il he only brought
moiety Of that desired love for her,
and nothing else. She would win it all
in time. But perhaps she had not un
derstood him. She gave him every en-
oouragement and sign Of her preference
consistent with woman's modesty and
self respect. But his overweening pride
had blinded him. and he could not see
things in their proper light. In an i'm
pulsive spirit, born of modification and
pique, she had married.
For some years, doubtless, his attitude
toward women had been of a reprehen
sible and cynical nature. But latterly
more rational spirit had come to him,
and he had seen clearly enough that he
and not the woman had been in the
wrong. But the experience had inf1u-'
enced him; perhaps not for the better
in worldly point Of view, for it had
deadened ambition in him and caused
him to pass through life as if his high
est object in it were merely the acqulr-
ing Of strange and novel experiences.
BE thought he had done with the one
great experience of life. He was not
aware Of the fact that he had deluded
himself and that he had not really loved,
for If he had he would either have mar
ried the heiress and snapped his fingers
at what the world might think or else
he would not have tamely submitted to
supposititious inevitable without MAX
ing some endeavor to overcome it.
