HALIFAX, N S., Oct 17-Historic
Windsor one of the most beautiful
towns of the province, was devastated
by fire this morning. For six hours,
beginning shortly before a. m, the
fire, famed by a violent northwest
gale, ragged so fiercely that the local
fire department was absolutely helpless
to cope with 1t, and, within half an
hour after it's discovery, the mayor be-
gan to call for outside assistance Long
before noon the town had been eaten
up almost completely, the area covered
by the flames being nearly a mile
ings occupying the section, barely half
a dozen scorched structures remain.
Among the buildings that escaped
are the Windsor cotton factory, Kings
college, the Anglican church, the Edge
hill school for girls, and the Buffrin
hotel. The latter is the only hotel left
standing. No Nova Scotia town has
ever been visited by a conf1agration
of such dimensions Of the $500 people
that inhabited the place. few have
homes of their own tonight. Over
5000 have been taken in by the resi-
dents of the surrounding country and
neighboring towns, while the remain
der of the sufferers have gone to Hall
fax or are sheltered in army tents
erected in the vacant plats tonight by
a detachment of British troops from
the garrison city. The disaster is
APPALLING IN IT'S EXTENT
The fire started in barn behind the
Marine block, in the heart of the busi-
ness district. The high gale prevailing
carried the flames to other buildings
before the firemen had time to get at
work, and in short time the showers
of sparks carried in all directions had
ignited score of buildings. The oc-
cupants of the dwellings had time to
hurry on some clothing and to drag
some household goods into the streets,
but there was no place of safety to

quickly enough to save it from being
destroyed or damaged. The flames cut
a clean gap from the waters edge on
the business front to the forests in the
rear, bounded by Ferry hill on the
South side and by Fort Edwards on
the North During the past few years
many handsome brick structures have
been erected but these were generally
contiguous to old wooden buildings.
and all went together before the fur1-
Gus flames The origin of the fire is
somewhat mysterious. A severe light
ming storm passed over the town be-
fore the flames burst FORTH and some
think the barn in which the fire start
ed may have been struck by lightning,
but many strongly suspect that the
conf1agration originated through the
carelessness of some drunken man.
When morning broke, the site of
Windsor was a scene of desolation
with hundreds of frantic, thinly-clad
and destitute men and women and
children rushing back and forth
through the smoky streets. Fortunate

OBJECTS OF WORSHIP.


Regard Meteorites
Sayages, whenever they come across
meteorites of large size are apt to re-
gard them rs objects of worship. Such,
however, was not the dignited fate of
n very remarkable specimen that is now
In the National museum, This strange
aerolite is four feet in diameter, weigh
ing |, 400 pounds approximately, and
has tho shape of ring. 1t was found
i'll the Santa Catarina mountains, and
for long time was used as an anvil by
Mexicans ut Tucson. In this employ
ment it was discovered by DIR. Irwin of
the United States army, who bought it
for small sum and gave it to the
Smithsonian institution. Doubtless the
substance of this meteorite originally
was largely stony, but the stony parts
became disintegrated and disappeared
after it fell. leaving the ring of iron.
OF 400 meteors that have been seen ac-
tually to fall, only about dozen were
metallic the rest being mainly of stony
| material, though containing more or
less iron.
On tho other hand nearly all of the
Hitltuiltts IlCheu up Ill Il tuSuAi why
are masses of metal 1t is probably the
case that great majority of such bod
les are stony. but meteorites of that de
scription do not attract notice when ly-
ing on the ground. All of these facts
are extremely interesting i'll view of the
belief now entertained by science that
the composition of meteorites throws
light upon the make up of the terrestrial
globe. In fact. according to this the
ory, the make up of the earth is much
like that of the average meteorite. OBJ
yiously the moment this assumption is
made the study of the structure of me
teorites comes to have extraordinary inn
portance. for mans knowledge of the
planet ON which he lives is restricted
almost entirely to the surface of it. The
bowels Of the earth remain almost I'M
known. Washington Post
