ONE CENT.
IN EARLY MORNING FIRE.
The Store of Mrs. Herold Gutted by
The Flames = Thought to Be An
Incendiary.

The grocery and provision store of
Mrs. George Herold on West street. near
Calvert street. was almost totally de-
stroyed by fre at an early hour this
morning.
The alarm was sounded about 3 o'clock
and in less than half hour the whole
building. which is OF frame, was ablare.
The Rescue Hose Company was the first
TO respond, and by the time the lnde-
pendent and Hook and Ladder Com
panies got TO the scene. the Rescue Hose
Company had the fire pretty much under
control.
The other companies, though a little
tardy in reaching the scene. on account
of the early hour, rendered valuable as
sistance. When the steam fire engine
arrived. the hose companies had done
such effective work, the engine was not
put in operation. The great disadvant-
age under which the fire department has
to labor in getting the steam FIRE engine
out in time. is the lack of horses to pull
it. The hremen respond promptly TO
every alarm OF Are given and the hose
reels are soon taken TO the scene OF the
FIRE, but il is an hour or more sometimes
before the engine arrives.
This is on account of having TO de-
pend upon the livery for horses, and
shows the great necessity Of the city hav-
ing its own horses and utilizing them on
the streets. Ii is not known how the fire
originated this morning. II was discov-
cred by the next door neighbor. Mrs. j.
Nulty, who was awakened by the strong
smell of smoke. She immediately arous-
ed her husband, who, upon going down
stairs, discovered that the store OF Mrs.
Herold was on FIRE. The alarm was inn
mediately sounded, and in less than ten
minutes the Rescue Hose Company was
on the spot and at work. Mrs. Herold
lost everything in her store. Her sons
and some of the hremen managed to
save her books and few articles. There
was no FIRE in the stove on Sunday, and
she can form no idea of the origin Of the
fire, and had there been a fire in the
stove there was no possible way for it to
set fire to the front OF the building, the
stove being in the rear of the store.
The fire started in the front part of the
store, near the window the flames making
their way up~ ard on the inside. What
was not totally destroyed by fire has
been ruined by water. On leaving the
store Saturday night some small change
was left in the money drawer. but this
vas gone when searched for today
This leads many to believe that the store
was entered. and the thief. in making a
light, set fire to something in the store :.
Mrs. Herold estimates her loss at from
81 800 TO s.. 900. which was partially COW
cred by insurance in the Germania Fire
Insurance Company. Chas. A. Zimmer-
man, agent.

The United States Fish commission
has sent the Albatross to Porto Rico
with a company Of scientists aboard
who are going to find out something
about conditions there. They will in
vestigate the fresh water of
the island with a view to planting eggs
or young fish in the inland waters to
serve as a food supply. Some of the
party will investigate the statistical
side OF the fish business there; travel
ers returning state that the inhabitants
OF the island almost live on Goldfish re-
ceiyed from Canada, and this trade will
now naturally be turned to the United
States. Some interesting information
may be expected from the Albatross
on the fora and fauna of the island
and its agricultural productions and
resources.

Consul-General Gowdy, In his annual
report, states that during the past year
there has been a marked increase in
the adoption of automobiles, not only
as pleasure vehicles owned by private
individuals, but in the way of CABS
serving the public for hire and for
business purposes in the way of de-
livery wagons, especially those for long
distances. 1t is announced that at the
beginning of the next year there are
to be 100 motor cabs driven by cleo
trical power running in the streets of
Paris, and If the experiment is success
full the cabs will be increased to 1000.
With this project in view a large plot
of ground has been acquired, where
the building OF works necessary for
the housing Of cabs and machinery
for electrical supply is being rapidly
completed. We have already referred
to the training ground for cabmen. The
automobiles which use petroleum prod
ucts are objected to by the public by
reason of their odor. noise and vibra-
ton.
