was almost destroyed by fire Monday night.
The fire was caused by some sparks from
an adjacent chimney falling on the roof and
the building was in a blaze in a moment
Nearly all the furniture was ruined. Gainey
and Richards complain that the fire de-
partment did not arrive on the scene until
twenty minutes after the alarm was
sounded.
Chief Barrett explains that there was a
slight confusion caused by two alarms COM
ing at once from different points, but that
scarcely more than two minutes after the
alarm the department apparatus moved.

while attempting to save some furniture.

TWELVE BELOW ZERO.
Temperature when Folks Began to
Arise Yesterday Morning.

People were still shivering yesterday with
the cold. but somewhat less actively than
the day before. Boreas still fingers In the
capital city, but he let up a little on his
lev grip and if the inhabitants didn't ac-
tually thaw out, still they froze no deeper.
The temperature reached its maximum of
chill early Monday morning and grew
steadily warmer until evening. With the
night the weather grew colder, as is its
habit, until at $50 yesterday morning the
mercury in Mr.. W~appenhans's bulb sank
again To Il below. From then on there was
a steady rise until at 2 o'clock the fluid
stood exactly at zero. The rise went on
until $3.50, when the thermometer registered
2 above. But the weather man Immediately
repented of his momentary weakness and
ordered the mercury down again. At 3
o'clock it stood at above and then con-
tinued to fall gradually.
Indications were that during the small
hours of this morning 5 degrees below zero
would be the temperature, but that to-day
the atmosphere will warm up again just
slowly and slightly enough to a1ord OPP
portunity for argument as to whether 1t Is
colder to-day than II was yesterday, and
There was much the same suffering yes
terday from lack of sufficient gas as there
was the day before. though the gas com

used to their frozen toes, cold spines and
curtains frozen to the windows so that they

Indianapolis Natural Gas Company. throws
out the comforting that IL is in
a great measure the peoples fault that they
are suffering now with cold. They have
neglected TO plug up the cracks in door
and window castings, secure in their hope
Of a balmy winter and in a cold snap like
this no amount of gas would be able TO
compete successfully with the prying cold.
Ice on the ponds has reached a thickness
of eight inches and in some places even
more. Some little cutting was done yes
terday on the Jordan pond. but most of the
ice men will not begin until to-day. They
were busy sweeping and marking yesterday
and the prospects are that a force of nearly
three hundred men will be put TO work at
cutting to-day. Ice men say that IL is yet
too early TO talk about the price of ice
next summer. They are pleased witt the
looks OF the ice at present and say that if
the cold weather lasts ten or fifteen days
they will be able TO put away such a crop
as will make ice n cheap luxury when the
warm weather comes.
