Mr.. II. CWmmi,Dhdn.'s DWeIIimg
Burned.

Mr.. Il. CW,tminDhdm's DWeiIimg
Burned.
On Tuesday evening of last
week about sunset, Mr.. Beaure-
gard Cunningham's dwelling was
discovered to be on fire. Mr..
Cunningham himself was in town
that afternoon and was at Cane
creek bridge on his way home
when he saw a frightful smoke
coming from his house. Mrs
Cunningham however had already
discovered the fire and given the
alarm and the neighbors and the
hands about the farm promptly
reached the scene of the fire and
set to work in good earnest to
save the contents of the building,
seeing it was impossible to save
the building itself. While they
saved good portion of the fur
niture, there were great many
things that were burned. From
the cook room and the dining
room they saved nothing, and
much of the wearing apparel OF
the entire family was burned.
The fire spread to the smoke
house and we'll house and de
stroyed both of them. Most of
the contents of the smoke house
were saved.
The fire originated in this way !:
Mrs. Cunningham sent the chill
dren into her room to start fire
while she was in thd cook room
preparing supper. A short while
afterwards one of the little girls
started into the room and dis
covered the room on fire. The
presumption is that the little boy
had gone into the closet amongst
the clothes with light and that
the clothes caught fire. The fire
evidently started on the side
where this closet was.
While Mr. Cunningham's loss
is heavy it is not total. he had
$3.50 insurance on the building,
and $50 on the furniture He
lost probably $500 above the in
surance.

The dwelling house of Mr.. J.

by fire last Friday morning awhile
before day. His loss is between
1920 and $500 with not dol

forcibly expressed it in letter,
which is as follows

that my house was on fire, and
before | could get the family up
and anything out, the flames
were so hot we could not get near
the house. The wind was blowing
gale at the time, and the house
burned so quick that we saved
very little. The loss was almost
total with no. a dollar of insur-
ance.
The origin of he fire is sup
posed to be lightning. as there

been called into the conference not to
underestimate the gravity of the situa-
ton.
The navy department is preparing to
use every available man of the naval
militia. Commanders of the reserve
who have been called to Washington
during the last few days have had the
Importance of getting their divisions in
such shape that a sudden call will find
them in readiness, impressed upon
them.
1t is believed that at a conference at
the navy department within the last few
days the question was put as to how
many men the commanders of the New
York and Brooklyn battalion would un-
dertake to report as available for three
months war service. Commander
Slayton, of the Brooklyn battalion, is
reported to have answered that he
would guarantee 275 men out of his bat.
talon. w. Butler Duncan, of the New
York battalion, estimates his number at
325.
The largest battalion in the country is
at San Francisco. Organizations on the
Pacific exist at San Diego, Los Angeles,
San Francisco Portland and Olympia.
The navy departments estimate is
that $4,000 men will be needed for the
twenty merchant cruisers. OF this
number 5000 will come from the regular
warships.
The significance of Roosevelts re-
mark, joined with the assemblage of mi
litia commanders at Washington and
the punching of warships and man
euvers of the torpedo fotilla is very
great.

ALL ARE FOR ANNExArIoN.
Hawaiian Senate Unanimously Ratified
the Treaty.

the Treaty.
SAN Francisco, Sept. 22.-The steam
er City OF Peking, which arrived in port
last evening and vas at once placed in
quarantine, brought advices from the
! Hawaiian islands up to and including
the 14th inst.
The senate convened September Sth,
but owing to the death of ex-senator G..
Rhodes. president of the legislature, an
adjournment was taken to the following
day. The session lasted less than two
hours, but in that time the annexation
treaty was presented and retified with
out dissenting vote.
Commenting upon the unprecedented
action of the upper chamber, the Luso,
the newspaper organ of the Portuguese
residents, of September 18th, SAID:
"The senate of the republic of Hawaii
has unanimously ratified the convention
which comedies Hawaii to the United
States, not only with all mercantile prop
erty of doubtful title, but also tying up
privileges which about 5000 voters of the
Portuguese colony enjoy and have en-
joyed, and which can only be recovered
if the congress of the United States from
a sense of justice and equity shall con-
| cede to us the privileges to which we
have a right. The session was closed on
| the 10Th, and will be convened again
next March in regular session."
Despite the action of the senate, the
opponents of annexation are continuing
the fight, and the leaders of the move
ment express the utmost confidence in
their ability to defeat annexation. Be-
fore the Peking left call had been Is.
| sued for an immediate mass meeting to
be held on the 18th. and the indications
were that it would be one of the largest
ever held in the islands. Some annexa-
tionists hope to be able to have Senator
Morgan address the meeting, with the
object of changing the sentiment of the
natives, but there was little likelihood of
the plan meeting with success.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Secretary
Bliss, of the department of the interior,
has induced the commissioner OF edu-
cation to have the reindeer now at Teller
station, Alaska, which have been broken
to work, forwarded to st. Michaels, to
be held there for use in forwarding sup
plies to the Klondike country in case of
emergency. There are about eight Of
the deer, which it is believed by the
administration can be utilized in this
way, and the opinion prevails that they
would be much more useful than dogs,
because they can travel more rapidly,
draw more, and can live on the little
forage the country produces.
The secretary says that each reindeer
will carry about 300 pounds, and will
travel hundred miles day. They are
to be sent to st. Michaels in preference
to other places, because of the available
stores at that point.
