SANTA CRUZ, CAL, April 6.-Recently
Sequel has suffered from several fires, be-
lieved to have been incendiary. Yester-
day an apparatus consisting of a can and
candle and bottle half filled with coal oil
was found in building. The candle was
partly burned, showing that an attempt
had been made to fire the building. In
the ruins of the fire which destroyed two
buildings this week was found a can and
a broken bottle. No cause can be assigned
for the incendiary act, except&hat it is the
work of some one with mania for rum

QUICK WORK OF FLAMES.
The People Will Build Larger
Structure for the Flower
Festival.
BURNING OF A VINE HILL HOUSE
Loss of Five Thousand Gallons of
Wine Stored in the Cellar of
the Place.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, April 5.-The
big pavilion in which the great flower dis
play for the Santa Barbara Festival and the
Dance of the Flowers was to be held is in
ruins, lire destroying it at noon to-day.
Before the ashes were cool arrangements
had been made to erect new structure
double the capacity of the burned building,
which will be in readiness for the great
fete.
At five minutes past noon to-day an
alarm called out the Fire Department..
There was no need of designating the loca-
ton of the blaze, for from the pavilion
arose dense column of smoke and curling
tongues of flame. By the time the firemen
reached the spot the building was roar
ing furnace, and the cupola was tottering
to its fall. So the fire-fghters' efforts were
successfully directed to saving adjacent
buildings and the racetrack stables.
Fears were entertained for the safety of
William Courtney, who was in the build
ing at the time of the fire with some ladies'
and gentlemen, rehearsing a Greek play,
but he safely escaped, az did also the work
men, who, however, lost their tools, and
one of the men was severely scorched on
the neck.
The fire was caused by spark from
young mans cigarette, which fell among
pampas plumes and other infammable
decorations. The flames spread so rapidly
that the persons in and about the building
became excited and forgot that telephone
was near by. They ran some distance to
give an alarm, and so fully ten minutes
elapsed before the Fire Department was
notified, and the fire then was beyond
control.
In two hours from the time of the fire,
in fact before the flames were extinguished,
the directors of the Flower Festival had,
with commendable zeal and energy, called
a meeting of prominent citizens and i'm
mediately determined that they would con-
struct another and larger building in a
more favorable location, with seating
capacity that should be double that of the
one now in ruins, and to be ready in time
for the festival. They propose to decorate
it more profusely than before, as the rich
have doubled their subscriptions.
Santa Barbara will see to it that the peo-
pie shall not be disappointed.
The cost of the burned building was
$4,000, and insurance $1,000. The Flower
Festival Association was engaged in deco
rating the building for the coming festival,
and there is loss of about $500 worth of
decorations, labor and material.
