Lewiston, January 2-Hotel Atwood
in Lewiston was damaged about twenty
hve hundred dollars worth by fire at
midnight Sunday. The fire is supposed
to have started by matches that were
carried away into the walls by rats OF
by a carelessly thrown cigar stump,
though the store room where the fire Ii
known 10 have started is SO far away
from the regular route of the public
travel about the hotsl corridors that the
last theory is hardly believed.
AT l2.45 u bell boy who was passing
through the lower part of the house, saw
smoke issuing from wall near the stors
room and run up. and gave the alarm.
The kitchen was spoiled and the sur
rounding departments injured badly.

pany of Lewiston, and was fully COW

their steal engraved calendars for the past
twenty years, the last series that re-
mained TO them, and the collection OF

evening the galleries were packed by the
friends OF the men, class. The atmos-

steamship official said the sum would
be extremely large. Sartuday night the

of on time absolutely refused to continue
work upon one of the ships until they
bad obtained some sleep. Every steve

all he could do this winter 90 far and
many of them have worked harder
than they wanted to. Portland people

its able management is hauling more
freight now than ever before and 50
