COMPLETELY WIPED OUT.
State Deaf-Mute Institute at Little Rock Destroyed By
 Fire.
LOSS TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
Pupils and Teachers Rescued Without Ac- cident-Fire Department PowerIess to Check the Fiames-Not a Dollar Insur~ anee.

Nothing remains of one of the statea magnificent charitable institutions at Little Rock but few charred timbers and broken brick-the Deaf-Mute In- stitute.
 Fire was discovered in the laundry building early on the morning of Sep tember 30th, and in a short time spread to the other buildings
 The fire department responded to the alarm, but the nearest water connec- tion was halfmile distant, which rendered it impossible to check the flames.
 The losses will reach fully s20O, ,OO0. | There was no insurance on the build ings, the legislature making no provis- ion therefor on the ground that the state was able to carry it's own insur- | ance.
 As the fall term of this school was not to open for two weeks, only about 30 pupils and teachers were quartered in the institution, and all these were rescued without accident. So rapidly did the flames spread, had the sleeping apartments been occupied by full complement of teachers and pupils, undou btedly loss of life would have added horror to the disaster.
 The DeafMute Institute was situated about two miles from the business DOT tion of the city, at an elevation com manding a magnificent view of the surrounding country-an ideal site for such an institution
 At the request of Gov. Jones Secre- tary of War Root has rendered the use of buildings at Fort Roots for the deaf mute school. The school will open in few weeks.

REGULATIONS NOT OBSERVED.
A Margaret Street Resident Makes a
Complaint.


Complaint.
A resident of Margaret street complained
to a Morning News reporter last night
that there Is a case of diphtheria on his
street in which the usual precautions
are not being exercised. The diphtheria
placard has been put out and the usual
card of instructions furnished to the
head of the family. These instructions
are very rigid, but if the complaint be
true, they are not being observed.
The house is a small one-story affair,
and it is claimed that the mother, who is
nursing the child, frequently brings it to
the window fronting on the street In her
arms and that she sits on the stoop after
nursing the child. 1t is also complained
that people living in the house pass
through the room in which the sick child
is on their way to and from the street.
1t would doubtless be hard upon the
mother to confine her to the sick room
this hot weather, but this is said to be
one of the requirements in local quar-
antine of these cases.
