Bohemian, Oct. 19.-At an early hour
this morning the fire department was
called out on an alarm from Night
Waterman Keown, to put Out what
might have BEEN dangerou S lire just
%opposite the Frasier house, and back
of he Gallatin State bank. The a
block is covered with barns, store
houses and shacks. One of the lat

burned to the ground. As this is the
site of the new Carnegie library build
ing, the cleaning of the ground is
| considered no serious damage, since
the fire did not escape from control
Two hours after the department
was called out to fight a fire In the
Hotel Bozeman. This fire started from
the range in the kitchen and was un
der considerable Roadway when dls
covered. However, owing to the &C
tive work of the department, the hrf

diaries Are at Work-Sus-
pect Arrested.

|@m Mondays Daily Gazette.
An attempt was made last night to
burn two unoccupied buildings locat-
ed in East Minnesota avenue, on what
is known as the "line."
The first alarm was sounded a few
minutes after 9 O'Clock and the fire
was located in a building at the cor
ner of Twenty-fourth street and the
avenue. Everything indicated be-
You'd the possibility of a doubt that
the fire was the work of an incendi-
airy.
The fremen had hardly finished
%subduing the flames when a second
alarm was turned in and they hasten
ed to a building in a block west OF
the first fire, next to the Lucky Dla-
mond. Here they&found another prom
; Using blaze in progress.
! Both fires were extinguished, but
not until the buildings were consider
ably damaged. G. F. Burton is the
e owner of the house where the hrst
i fire was started and Mary Saml1n
is the owner of the other.
The two fires of last night made
seven within the same district within
a week and proved c%onclusively that
the city is on the wave of an epidemic
if incendiarism.
lei During the progress of the second
fire last night Chas. F. Burton over

men which clearly indicated that they
~ intended setting fire to a livery stable
~ One of them said to the other, III

ne men in his saloon talking about sc
ie- ting fire to a livery stable. Both .

THE POWER OF WATER.
In Certain Conditions One Pint VIII
Burst n Strong Cask as Quick
ly as Gunpowder.

A single pint of water will burst a
strongly-built iron-hooped oaken cask
as quickly as though dozen pounds
of gunpowder were exploded within
It. 1t is a well-known law of physics
that the pressure exerted by liquids
increases in proportion to their depth.
Suppose, therefore, that we have a
strong cask filed with water and
standing on end. The slaves of this
cask may be made to burst apart by
adding a very small quantity of wa
ter to what is already in the cask.
AS the cask is already full, some
way of adding the water must be de-
vised. To do this hole is bored in
the end or head of the cask, and a
long tube of small diameter is insert
ed upright. At the upper end of the
tube is a small funnel, into which wa
ter Is poured until the tube becomes
full, and when that point is reached
the cask will burst.
This seems almost incredible, but It
IS only a demonstration of the law
that has been cited. When the water
Is poured into the tube 1t unites with
the water in the cask and the depth
of the water is several times as
great as it was in the cask alone. The
fact that there is only small guam
tity Of water in the tube makes no
difference, for it is now all one body,
and its depth is gagged from the top
of the tube to the bottom of the
cask.
As matter of fact, this expert
ment is only an artificial reproduc-
ton of what we know takes place in
nature. Some of her greatest conyul-
sions are caused by this very process.
Suppose, for example, that there is
great mass of rock, under which
there is a cavity filled with water
that has no outlet. Suppose, more
over. that there is crack extend
ing from the surface of the ground
