Last Nights Fire.

Last night just before o'clock the
fire department was called to the cor
ner of State and Second south streets.
Both houses responded and in a very
short space of time the hose carts,
chemical engine truck and other IRE
apparatus were at the spot, with a hose
line run from the nearest plug. On
the southeast corner of the intersec-
ton of the two streets was seen quite
a blaze burning on the curb. AT first
it was thought the fire was one which
had been started 10 celebrate Dewey's
victory over the Spaniards. but when
il was seen that a man was rushing
about the fire in a very excited man
ner ii was discovered that the fire was
in a lunch cart. The chemical engine
went dashing I'D and a hand engine,
containing three gallons of liquid. was
taken and the fire extinguished with IT.
But the cart was a mass of shoulder
ing ruins and a total loss. Quite a
crowd had collected about the place
and were CRYING to Let her burn.
Hurrah for Dewevr The cart was
owned and run by George Stewart, and
the fire was the result of the explosion
of the gasoline stove which he used in
his business The loss was total and
would reach about SIS. This is the sec
ond time that Stewart has lost his
wagon by fire.

observed. They cid not believe that the
rates should be reduced to points on the

these restrictions and now announces
