from their peaceful sl0p bers by the
cry OF fire, the crack Of pistols and tbs
screaming Of engines. IN q few min IN
utes the entire population, men and
women, we're OH the street and at the
scene IF the conlggration. The Ere
originated in the lodging house OF Mrs.
Corrigan, quickly spreading TO The res
idence Of Mr Chas. Hammond, thence
TO the residences Of j. Il. Gawzy and
julius Erentz. In scarcely more than
an hour from the time OF the alarm,
five buildings were smouldering ruins,
ana the owners had sustained less of
from $4,000 to $4,000.
Most of the furniture from the resi-
dences Of Messrs. Hammond, DawZy
and Krentz was saved and a portion of
Mrs. Corrigan's furniture; but, as
matter of necessity, was considerably
damaged.
All the buildings, we understand,
we're partially insured, bat the insu-
rance viii not cover the loss By. con-

human exertions of our citizens, who

him off to the tank, wet his wings to pre-

After q moments pause frog ad-

disappeared, drawn into the frogs mouth
by single dart of his long tongue. Oc-
casionally the wasp reappears, wholly or

which she does not conceal The rich

in Florida seeking to improve his health.
Mrs. Green has been widow for many
years, and her daughter is about 20
years old. Since the death of her hus-
band Hetty Green has become fnan-
cier of unusual shrewdness. She has in
dicated by her actions that she has small
faith in brokers, and that if she wants
anything done the best way is to do it
herself.
The weather beaten satchel has carried
securities representing millions of dol

and Brooklyn and other big financial
centers with precious burdens, and Het.

money on things she does not want, and
as she wants very little she spends but
little. Her children and her fortune are
the sole objects of her solicitude. Mrs.
Green is said to be very anxious to have
her daughter become one of the leading

A Metal That Hardens Steel.

The reason that the mixture Of tung-
stem with steel gives the latter so great d
degree of hardness that it readily
scratches glass and quartz seems to be
revealed by discovery recently made
in Germany. A definitely crystallized
compound Of iron and tungsten has been
discovered, the crystals being SO hard as
to scratch topaz. Tungsten is brittle
white metal, almost as heavy as gold.
The crystals, remarks The Paper Trade,
as formed by its combination with iron,
in the proportion of one atom of iron to
two of tungsten, are silver gray and very
brilliant. It is thought that when tung-
stem is alloyed with steel some Of the
compound just described is formed in
the mass, thereby producing the remark
able increase in the hardness of the steel.
This is an interesting example of the
value that one metal may lend to the 9TH
or, for, until the discovery that it could
be used in hardening steel, tungsten, al
though it occurs in considerable abun-
dance, was practically useless and with
out value.-New York Times.
