TuE FIRE ALARM sounded in

TISHE FIRE ALARM sounded in
L Vinita again on the morning of
the 4th, between two and three O'Clock
and soon the citizens responded, to
find more fireworks than the most pat
riotic cared to witness. 1t was dis
covered that the frame building on
the north side of Illinois avenue, the
property of S. J. Burns, aud occupied
by old man Miller, (colored) the shoe
maker, was on fire. The crowd went
to work TO try and save the adjacent
buildings, but the flames spread too
rapidly and it became necessary to
abandon the idea. Then an attempt
was made to save the household goods,
but a part of them were destroyed in
spite of all efforts Men were placed
on the buildings around the fire and
across the street, and by the use of
plenty Of water, prevented the flames
from spreading.
The buildings destroyed and dam
aged, five in all, belonged TO Mr..
Burns. Three were burned to the
ground, one, the shoe shop, was torn
down and the other, which had been
engaged by the Chetopa Grain Co.
for an Office, was turned over and over
and badly demolished. Mr.. Burns
loss is about $1,000. He carried no in
surance.
NOTES.
Fortunately, no one injured.
1t was the hottest fire for the size
we ever felt.
There was no shirking: everybody
worked faithfully.
We noticed lady or two that did
the work of good fireman.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
although surmises have been dealt in
to some extent.
Sam Burns was pretty badly used
up, burning his hands and blistering
his face little.
Old man Miller lost part OF his kit
of shoemakers' tools and his night
shirt had close call.
1t was thought at one time that the
postoffice would 60 in the flames, but
heroic work saved it,
Some funny sights attend fires as
well as circuses. The contrast of col
ors was laughable, Notwithstanding
the grave situation.
Had the wind been little higher
the Raymond block and. Shanahan's
drug store would have been hard to
save from destruction.
Long before the ruins ceased to
smoke the Frisco employees had the
spot fenced with barb wire, it being,
as the company claims, on right of
way ground.
Joseph Hunt says: / desire TO ex-
press my sincere gratitude to the bus
ineSs men of Vinita and all Others
who assisted so energetically in saw
ing my property, the pOstoffice build
ing from burning.
Anna Bushyhead, colored woman |
who occupied part of the building in
which the fire originated, lost every
thing save the dress she wore. Her
little girl escaped with her gown only, |
and it caught fire but was put out be-
fore the child was burned.

To the People
Or.
Big Cabin
And...
Vicinity:

Having been repeatedly
urged by my customers in
the vicinity of Big Cabin
to put in a stock of general
merchandise at that place,
| have concluded to do so,
and am now placing in the
Renfrow building a good
stock of Groceries, Staple
Dry Goods & Shoes, which
will be opend some time
this week. My purpose is
to buy produce of all kinds
and will guarantee prices
for same just as high as
you would receive else
where. My goods will be
sold at the same low prices
YOU pay for same in Vinita.
And while my stock there
will not be so extensive as
at Vinita it will embrace a
complete assortment OF all
lines at Vinita prices, and
you know with me they are
always low.

jTHE FRISCO RAILROAD COM

vISHE FRISCO RAILROAD COM
pany and some of the parties
who have occupied lots on the north
side. in the "burnt district" have had
trouble since the fire in dispute as to
who shall occupy the land. Tuesday
afternoon a party of wOrkmen began
to replace an old building that had
been turned over during the fire,
whereupon the railroad section men,
headed by Ike Teeples who had been
employed to guard the disputed
ground, intercepted them and the af-
fair came near ending in a fight.
Again. later in the evening, Mr.. Burns
attempted to unload some lumber on
one of the lots occupied by his build
ing before Saturday mornings fire,
but the lumber was thrown off by the
railroad people as fast as it was un-
loaded, and the matter was abandoned.

Explosive Power of Nitrorlyccrin.

Whoever works with high grade explo-
sives must take his life in hand Some of
the accidents that have occurred in the
course of the manufacture and handling of
such materials arc as interesting as they
arc shocking. Recently q man driving
two horses to wagon carrying 1900
pounds of nitroglycerin met with some
accident and upset his load. The team,
wagon and driver were simply reduced to
undiscoverable atoms. A fragment of the
mans clothing, found over u mile from
the scene Of explosion, was all that could
be traced as having belonged to human
being. Bits of the horses were found miles
away, and some small pieces of the wood
and metal of the wagon. In the adjacent
fields cattle were killed by tho shock, and
in towns around the country horses ran
away with fright, windows were broken
and buildings were shattered. Almost all
of the window glass in the houses for sew
eral miles around was broken, and q hole
was made in the earth Is feet deep, so feet
across at the top and 35 at the bottom.
