FIRE LAST NIGHT.

". c. Norton & Company AgAn thv Suf-
 ferers.-GOed Work Done bY
 Prescott Ftrsmen.
 About 1 o'clock this morning a fusilade of pistol shots, followed by the ringing of the fire bell, and 8 few minutes later by the shrill auG deSfening blasts of the Electric Light COmpany's whistle and the whistle of locomotive in the rail road yards, awakened the populace from a sound slumber, and brought out the fire department in double quick order. The fire, which was in che building occupied by W. (. Norton & O., on the ground floor. and as a lodging house in the second story, had already made great pro gress, lurid flames shooting hea- venward, Illuminating the town for blocks around.
 The fire department was not long in getting two streams of water on the burning building, after the alarm was sounded, and 1t did not take them very long to get it under con troL The ire hSd made such pro gress, though, before the alarm was sounded, that the second story of the building was pretty badly burned. The fire did not reach the front where Norton & Co.'S store is located, but the goods were ali moved, and the firm suffered consid- erable loss on this account, as well as by water.
 W. c. Norton lives with his family in the rear of the store, and he says he was awakened by noise in the rear of the building, ..and he arose and lighted lamp and started out st,the rear door. Just as he reached the door, he heard some one jump over the fence and run away, so that there can be no doubt that the fire was of incendiary origin. The end of the house, too, had coal oil thrown over 1t.
 NIT. Norton says that an attempt was made last Friday night to set fire to the building, bu. for some cause or other, it failed to ignite properly. The place selected for the fire is in the rear of the build ing, just outside of the oil room and had the fire worked its way into the oil last night, it might have been more disastrous
 The building was owned by the late Judge Peery, of Missouri, who committed suicide in Phenix about l c week ago.

Story Cnrrfnl Man.


 He was a careful and thoughtful man. In fact 1t may be said that he was an extremely careful and thoughtful man.
 He was resting comfortably in his easy chair with his feet resting on q foouest when he discovered that his pencil needed sharpening. Any other man would have taken out his knife and begun work at once, but he was too thoughtful for that. also too careful.
 He sighed, got up out of his chair and went across the room for a lit- tie waste paper basket that was standing in the corner. Then he TO- turned to his seat in the easy chair and placed the basket on the floor between his legs.
 His wife smiled approvingly. and he felt proud of himself
 He opened his knife, leaned over his basket and began work on the pencil
 It Is just as easy to be careful and thoughtful, he said as he de- tached the first shaving from the end of the pencil.
 It Is, " replied his wife as she fol- lowed the shaving with her eye and saw it go over his shoulder and land on the carpet behind him.
 But why continue? There are few who have not tried to sharpen 8 pen cil over a small basket in some mo ment of temporary insanity.
 When he had finished, there were three shavings in the basket and the rest were on the floor.
 That Is usually the way it hap pens. ns.-Chicago Post.

A Violet Luncheon

Mrs. Col A. O. Brodie gave an elegant violet luncheon yesterday afternoon to a large number of ladies from both Whipple and Pres colt. The table decorations were all of violets. Fresh violets were strewa over the tables in profusion, difusing their sweet perfume throughout the room; violet ribbons were there also, displayed in artistic taste; there were candy violets o1 delicious cakes, and more delicious ice cream, with violets.
 At each plate was a little souvenir in the shape of card on which was written the name of the guest and a quotation of poetry appropriate 10 the character of the one receiving it and on which were also hand painted Violets. On the reverse side was the menu, composed of the most tempting viands, as will be seen from the following copy of 1t:
 Oranges,
 Raw Oysters, Brown Bread,
 Cream of Barley Soup,
 Bread Sticks, Celery, Chicken Croquette with Bananas,
 Green Peas, Saratoga Chips,
 Baked Hams, Water Cress,
 Rolls,
 Shrimp Salads, Sandwiches, Bisque Ice Cream, Angel Food,
 Strawberries la Celestine,
 Coffee, Fruit, Bon Bons
 Not the least of the afternoons pleasure, though, were the elegant luncheon and decorations. as the charming hostess is a most delight ful entertainer, and never permitted the enjoyment of her guests to wsne for a single instant during the afternoon.
