 Sunday.
 Demopolis, Dec. 23.-(Special. )-Ffre was discovered yesterday afternoon in work train on a spur track at the Black Warrior Lumber Company. The train was composed of ten cars, some of them loaded with ties and the others emnty. The fire originated in the sleep- ing car next to the cook car. Mir. J. b. Rhodes, of the Black Warrior Lumber Company was the first one to see the smoke issuing from the car. He imme- diately gave the alarm but before help could arrive the cook car and the living car were lost By quick work the rest of the, cars were cut loose and moved.
 For while 1t looked as though the fire would reach the immense stackc of lumber piled along the track, but it did not, and loss was confined to the two cars, both of which were burned to the trucks.

 dred here, and men are always blowing in little sums like that trying to gather In hundreds of thousands. 1 would not
 be surprised if more money has not been lost in the Klondike than has ever been

But l think that Alaska has a great and glorious Iu- ture before 1t. I am in love with the country and think that 1t has some vast possibilities for men who have the grit to tackle them and hold on with bulldog tenacity until they accomplish what they are after-gold. It looks to me, however, that the whole country up there is gold, mad. Let a new rumor start that gold has been struck at such and such place, and a stampede is at once organ ized, the proportions of which will have to be seen once to be properly appreci- ated.'

proFement OF business for the sheet-iron
workers and dealers at the expense of the

commissioners have the idea that the last
named was the object. l used to have a
large. strong vinegar barrel costing % or
