ALBA UNION BURNED our.
lncendiary Fire This Morning Destroys
Building and Plant.

Abba, March Especial. AT S
o'clock this morning fire completely
destroyed the two-story and basement
brick building on the corner of the
square, occupied by the Abba Union
Office, and the Gilbert bakery, causing
a loss of $4,000. The fire is believed
to have been incendiary.
The building was occupied, on the
first floor, by the Gilbert bakery, the
second floor being used by the Abba
Union office and composing room, and
the basement as a press room. When
the fire was first discovered man was
seen running away from the building,
and as there is evidence that the fire
started from the outside it is believed
to have been the work of an incen-
diarv The fire gained such Roadway
before the department could get to
work, that the entire building and
contents We're completely consumed.
The loss will reach $4,000. Mr.. Gill
bert's effects in the bakery are COW
cred by insurance. while the loss to
A. r. Barnes & Sons, proprietors of
the Union, will reach $4,000, on which
they only have an insurance of $4,000.
The building was owned by the
A1essrs. Barnes and considered one of
Albia's most substantial buildings.
When the fire was first discovered Reu-
ben Barnes bravely assembled the stairs
to the second floor, amid flames and
smoke, and rescued the subscription
and other books of the office, and sew
eral volumes OF files.
Mr.. Barnes said this morning that
while the loss was a severe blow to
them, they would Immediately make
preparations to put in a new office, and
| will endeavor, with characteristic ener-
| gy, TO get out the Union, as usual,
next week, without the loss of a single
| issue to their subscribers. The proplie-
tors of the Union have the sympathy
of the entire newspaper fraternity of
Iowa, and many offers of assistance
have already been received.
| Thia is the second 5incendiary fire
that has occurred in Abba, and some
steps will probably be taken at once to
apprehend the tiend who has been APP
plying the torch. Only few weeks
ago the sheds and yards Of the w. B.

Ambush BY Filipino Rebels.

Manila, March "A hundred insur-
gents, from San Fernando de la Union,
ambushed ten men of the Third caval-
ry, who were escorting a provision
train. The Americans scattered, and
while returning to camp one man was
killed. The insurgents captured four
horses and quantity of provisions. A
subsequent reconnaissance of the To-
cality developed the fact that there
were entertainments there, and force
of Filipinos, estimated to number 500
men.

Col. Anderson Ambushes the Insur-
gents Near Balaneas

Manila, March 1.-(By Associated
Press. Colonel Anderson, with the
Thirty-eighth infantry, employing the
insurgents own tactics, ambushed the
enemy near Balangas. Thru spies An
derson learned that detachment of
insurgents would pass a certain road.
He posted his soldiers concealed among
the trees lining the road, and when
the army arrived the Americans volley-
ed unexpectedly, killing twenty-four in
surgents, wounding thirty and captur-
ing several. Some arms and ammuni-
ton were also captured. The effect
of this blow has been salutary. The
enemy in that locality is dismayed.

The saloon Petitions.

The Saloon Petitions.
There. is beginning to be opposition
to the measures for legislating the sa-
loon petitions secured prior to October
1, 1897. The bill by Senator Hubbard
to legalize the acts OF saloon men in
conducting their saloons in good faith
under these petitions, and to give them
till July ], 1900, to secure new petit
tions, has been before the senate ju-
dietary committee and was sent to a
subcommittee. A strong opposition
developed to cut out that part of it
which grants till July 1 to secure new
petitions Aside from this, the bill will
probably pass, tho the anti-saloon peo-
pie will fight it. Here in Des Moines
there have been no open saloons for
about month, but inc saloon men
have filed their new petition and an
nounce that they will open March 13.

The Race Meatlnn.

Those in charge Of the race meeting
which is to be held in this city on next
"Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
October 10. II and II, have gone to
much trouble and expense to make
them success. II would have been
desirable to have had county fair
this year IL it could have been done 80
as to make creditable showing. 1t
Is often charged and often operates to
keep good citizens from lending their
hearty assistance to u fair, that the
race and horse men get control and
manage things to the neglect of the
agricultural exhibits. The fact that
we are having no county fair this year
but are having n race meet may tend
to Increase the fears of such people.
But itshould not do so. Itrequires much
more time to prepare for a fair than
for races, The park association did
not organize in time to permit the sue
cesSful issue of fair, but it was
thought time would be sufll ,ent to ar
range a sue lessful race meet and pre-
sent indications point TO satisfactory
results. On another page see the ad.
and program together with one free
complimentary ticket which will admit
a lady to the grounds.
