New York, April 27.-South Beach, the
bathing resort on the Staten Island shore
Just outside the narrows. was fire swept
tonight, every structure along The beach
Tor Il distance Of 900 feet being destroyed
involving loss estimated at 10000. The

anted.
The fire started under the music hall or
the Casino Of Albert Hergenham. who
had come down in the morning To prepare
the place for the opening of the season.

Gines could be summoned from Stapletun

lures on either side. The spread of the
fire was finally checked To the westward

WATERVILLE.
THEY WENT COLLEGE.
Rioe'a Gap of Fortune" Girls Call on
Colby Boys.

Several cities in the State have been
captured in toto by the captivating
maidens in Rice's cap of Fortune"
but here in Waterviie where the un-
completed City hall would not allow n
total capitulation, they took u part and
that part was the college. or at least
the boys of the college and generous
share of their belongings.
The girls were en- route to Bangor
when it happened and they had a short
wait here and good share of the girls
the boys say all of the pretty ones
went over to look the college over. The
boys who did not happen to be other
wise engaged got the news of their
coming promptly ana tumbed all over
themselves in their efforts to do the
honors in regular college fashion. The
baldheaded row wasn't in it for a min
ute. The girls were promptly given to
understand that they were faculty,
trustees, all they saw was theirs and
lots of things they didn't see. They
were the real thing, the only thing and
of all things the best beyond compare.
1t didn't take so very long to get
chunmy when the train was only a few
miles away, and chorus girls don't have
a chance to sample university extern
sion very often. They saw the chapel
with its rows and rows Of sombre, dig
nificd seats. and wondered if the roof
would fall should they do just wee
bit of a step in the aisle. But the at
mospherc craved by the artistic tenn
permanent was lacking there and they
wanted to see the rooms Oh, yes,
above all things the rooms. The dens
the lovely Bohemian dens, where col
lege boys live apart from the busy
world and study and think great
thoughts The rooms by all means.
And so to the rooms they went.
1t was right here that the trouble
commenced. The girls had been given
to understand that they were monarchs
of all they surveyed, so of course their
guests couldn't object if they took just
one of those cute little red caps with
the funny letters in gold on the front,
now could they? 1t was such lovely
souvenir Of such a delightful visit But
one! Ye gods But No. 2 promptly
followed No. l and soon it was the

MISSING MAN FOUND.
Body of Joseph Lessor Discovered in
the MessaIonskee.

The body of Joseph Lessor was found
floating down the MeSsalonskec, sun
day, and one of the missing man cases
that has aroused the city of late was
thus explained. There were Il number
of fishermen scattered along the banks
of the lower Mcsalonskee, Sunday,
when one OF them, Pearl York, noticed
something floating down with the cur
rent. This was well down the stream
not far from the mouth and near the
property of Mayor Blaisdcll. A pole
was secured and the floating object
pulled III towards shore. Then ii was
discovered thai it was Il human body
and that OF Joseph Lessor, who has
been missing Tor five weeks.
The body was secured but not taken
from the water and City Marshal Far
rington summoned. The body was re-
moved to the undertaking rooms of
Edward ValIce. An inquest was not
considered necessary.
Joseph Lessor disappeared from his
home, March %. ON that day he babe
his relatives :soodby, declaring, they
said, that he was tired of living and
that they would never see him alive
again. Not much attention was paid
to his wild threats at that time, for it
was understood Lhat he had been
drinking rather hSaviIy just previous
and his condition WAS believed to be
the result Of this. SO he was allowed
to go his way unhindered. Several
days passed without any great anxiety
being caused ana then, as no trace OF
him could be found, Il search was instt-
tuted.
There We're some indications that the
missing man had gone to the NIessa-
lonskee and carried out his threats.
But these were not strong enough to
prevent many of his friends from be-
HeVing that he was all right 771 would
turn up in due time. Otht seId to
the suicide theory for Il while buI final
~ the theory that he had gone 10 an
other part of the State and woul1 be
heard from was generally accepted.
The stream was thoroughly searched
at the time and the surrounding ccun-
try, but without any good clue being
discovered. The matter had been
mostly forgotten by those outside the
missing mans immediate cirofe until
the body was found yesterday.
The missing man apparently took the
shortest course from Water street to
the stream and threw himself IN The
body was not badly decomposed and
had evidently been under the water
most of the time.
A widow and two children survive
him.
