Outskirts of Chicago.
Chicago, Dec. 16. - A miawinter
prairie fire was dangerous novelty
witnessed in this city last evening. 1t
swept ten acres of grass and was
subdued by farmers, firemen, police
men and street railway employees, who
attacked it with brooms, blankets and
rubber overcoats and sod. Many cars
loaded with beef on the Panhandle
tracks were threa tened, as was a
Knickerbocker ice house and several
farm houses. The scene of the fire
was Leavitt street and Western ave-
nue. and Fortieth and Fifty-frst
streets. The flames are supposed to
have started from sparks from the
engine Of a south-bound passenger
train which passed at $3.50 o'clock
For time the blaze smouldered, then
broke out in several places. and,
famed by the wind. spread rapidly.

Public sentiment will generally ap-
prove the action of the New York
sheriff who recently arrested a "lady
cyclist." She YVES trying to cover
three thousand miles in quicker time
than that distance had ever been rid
den before, and when the sheriff in
terfered had already covered twenty
six hundred miles in less than twelve
days. She was in such pitiable con-
dition that people living near the
scene of her riding made complaint. 1t
may not be necessary to regard such a
person as a criminal, but any one who
knows no better than to impose such
q strain upon her own health, II not
upon her life, is better off in custody
than out of it.

Large Airy Room Provided With

The foundation for the detention hos

almost completed and the entire build
ing will be finished and in shape for
occupancy by September l.
It is being built on the west end of
the city prison and viii be Is feet wide
and 261k feet deep and two stories high.
back from the walk about ten feet
which will allow space for small
lawn.
The first floor will be one large room
which will be used as detention hos
pitaf. where people injured on the
streets can be taken and cared for until
they can be removed to their homes or
to a hospital. On the second floor will
matron, and a ward room which will
be used for women and children who
are not criminals but are temporarily
detained for some purpose,
Mrs. ThorDe's room will be on the
south side and the ward room will be
on the north, both rooms having win
dows on the west A stairway will be
put in with an entrance on Fifth street
which will make it much more con-
venient for the matron than the present
arrangement. Doors will be cut on
both the second and first floors connect
ing the addition with the prison proper
The room now occupied by Mrs.
Thorpe and the work room which is
next to it, will be used as prison rooms
for women and children. They are not
pleasant rooms, as the sun never shines
in them. but they have been good
enough for Mrs Thorpe for the past
seven years. and the prisoners will be
able to stand them. These two rooms
the one now used and the room in the
new building, will make four rooms
that can be used as prison rooms The
doctors room in the old building may
also be used as a prison room, but that
has not been decided upon.
The new building, although small,
will be a great Improvement not only
on account of the hospital advantages,
but on account of the Encouragement 1t
allows in the rooms of the second floor
of the prison. On account of the wind
ing stairs in the prison it is almost i'm
possible to carry a person on a stretch
er to the Doctors room on the second
floor The new building does away with
this trouble, a patient can be lifted
from an Ambulance and carried into
the hospital with very little trouble,
everything having been arranged with
a view to such proceedings

The cablegram states that the feeling
of the Mohammedans against the ma
tive Christians is growing and that
there have been several hand to hand
battles with fatalities on both sides.
Mr.. Shimoon's father is a native mis-
sionary and this fact adds to the wrath
against him and his family
