What was the origin of the fir,
at the workhouse'
Was it caused by an incendiary
If the building was fire proof why
was it destroyed!
These are questions that the tax
| payers of New Castle county would
like to have answered by the Trus-
tees of the New Castle County Wor'
house.
This is day of desolation at the
New Castle County WorkhoGse.
What few days ago was a model
prison reformatory is to-day a fire
gutted building, the responsibility
for which has not yet been fixed.
The trustees met in this city this
morning and reviewed the de-
structive work Of the big fire OF
Saturday night and planned among
other things to rebuild the structure.
Accordingly the county prisoners
are at work clearing away the debris
Architects and builders will in
spect the walls Of the building to
ascertain if there are any defects
caused by the fire.
The two lower counties are
showing a disposition to agree to
the use of the institution for a State
penitentiary. and many here are of
the opinion that the cheapest way
to replace the workhouse is for the
State to purchase the institution
from tho county and rebIild the
burned portion. The Legislature
will meet in a month AMI it is prob
able that the proposition to make
the place a State penitentiary will
then be pushed.
STORY OF THE FIRE.
Shortly before 6 O'clock on Satur-
day evening Assistant Matron Smith
heard two reports and upon look
ing from b el.room discovered smoke
issuing from the workroom of the
building. She gave the alarm and
Warden Meserve and the guards
rushed to the section from which
the smoke was issuing. Tie heat
and smoke were in ntense at this time
and the two limos of hose on the
building seemed to have little or no
effect in extinguishing the fire. As
the workrOOm was we'll stocked
with goods for making trousers the
location Of the fire could not be dis
covered.
Warden Merserve then called
Chief Engineer Conway of the local
fire department and asked for as
sistance. The Chief ordered two
companies to the scene and they ar.
rived about $50 O, clock.
The eastern section of the build.
ing was then burning furiousy. The
companies were doing all in their
power to prevent the spread OF flames
but they were powerlcss, to check it,
With a roar the fire leapcd from
wing to wing OF the handsome big
building.
There were no ladders on the
ground and the liremen could not get
to the roof. Consequently Jho CEN

roof fell prey to the flames. About
o'clock the Pheopix truck arrived
and lis ladders were used to adyan-
tage.
The water supply Of the lake at
the eastern end was exhausted after
about an hours work and the en-
gines had to be moved 10 the creek.
Two lines Of hose carried the water
from this point to the burning build
ing.
While the fire was raging in the
eastern wing twenty prisoners who
were in th at section were removed
to the coils in the western wing.

they would remain with them 80 that
when ever there was any danger

became lodged 50 it co,!ldn't be got

and many have inquired since as to
whether the dog had been dislodged
or not We are able this week to
set the public mind at rest as to
the dogs fate and also to give some
fnther information as to the cause
O.. it's strange conduct. The dog is
out and the mystrey is solved. It
came about in this way. A hobo
who went into Guys restaurant fol-
a lunch learned Of the strange
affair and said he had konwn a
similar case back in New York
where the dog was gotten out by
pouring castor oil into the mouth
peice of the horn. This was tried
but for quite while the dog never
budged. Then a scratching began
away up round the second curve of
the horn and went back towards
the big end. Just before got to the
back last curve there was tussling
and sbuealing like rats fighting and
then the dog slipped out. But the
spectators were not prepared for the
sight that met their gaze In the
dogs mouth was a full grown rat
kicking and squealing. It, seems
the rat had run into the horn with
the dog afer and had gone as far
as could The dog did likewise and
naturally refused to come out SO
long as he could smell the rat inst
ahead of him. The castor oil caused
the rat to slip backward is spite of
all is scrahling until the dog nabbed
it, and then he was ready to come
out. The dog is worn out from loss
of sleep and his cramped pos ition.
