the fire had gotten beyond contXol be-
fore aid arrived. The building first
burned was Lundy & Dickeys general
merchandise store, and from there the
fire spread to the Central Hotel, owned
by r. T. Kirby. Lundy & Dickey's loss,

about $500 insurance. The hotel was
worth about 5000. and was all the pro-
perty owned by Mr. Kirby. He had no

THESE WELCOME COLD SNAPS
One Class to Whom Jack Fross s Visit
Brings Delight,
SKATERS MAKE MERRY ON SUNDAY
Lake Mt Hnnscom Park nnd Lagoon at
the Exposition Grounds Afford
Much Pleasure TO
Thousands.

Jack Frost yesterday thickened the coat.
ing on pond and stream so that 1t would
safely bear the weight Of man. Thous-
ands of people yesterday shod themselves
with steel and bade defiance to the cold
north wind, Out at Hanscom plrk the
lower lake was frozen over evenly and solid
and it's surface was dotted with swiftly glld-
ing figures all day long. There was little
provision for comfort in the way Of fire
and places to rest, but those on the pond
thought little of this, for the place WIS well
sheltered from the raw wind by the encircling
hills 1t is probable that one OF the iron
election booths will be utilized as a casino
later and that fire will be provided where
the skaters may toast their feet. A move
ment Is also on foot by the Juvenile residents
near the park to organize a skating club, and
in event of its successful execution several
carnival features will be introduced this WIN
ter. Those who are at the head of the
scheme are Sam Evans and Fred Williams,
two of the best skaters who frequent the
pond. The day passed off without incident,
except duckng which small bay named
Sam Emerson took when he ventured too
near the inlet.
Out at the expositions grounds prepara-
tions on large scale have been made by the
managers OF the winter carnival to take care
of nll Comers large building has been
erected near the mirror of the lagoon and in
addition to stove, there are comforts in
the way of refreshments cigars and plenty
of settees upon which the weary may rest
check room has also been provided and
q booth for the rental of skates has been
put in. The ice has frozen over the
lagoon about three inches thick. but its sur
face was somewhat rough in places. The
smoothest portion is between the mirror and
the island, about midway of the lagoon,
The lessees of the skating privilege have
made arrangements to flood the lagoon every
evening by means of hydrants placed at in
tervals along the banks and a smooth sur
face is promised hereafter. Yesterday was
the formal opening Of the skating season at
the exposition grounds and it was intended
there should be a band of music present.
Owing to the snow storm, which began
about noon, however. this was eliminated,
but nightly concert is promised as soon
as the weather will permit. Provision has
also been made. for the lighting of the
lagoon by means of a large number of loco
motive headlights. Over 1000 people paid
the small price of admission yesterday.
