SPEECH,

The Liedertafel In Akron has been,
possibly more than any other German
American society the one institution
which has fostered among its men,
bers and among German-American cit
liens generally, the language, GUS
toms. and the wholesouled social fea-
lures of the Fatherland. Formed AZ
years ago, it has grown steadily, and
has been Mt all times an Important
part of the lives of Germans In Ak
ron. The forty-seventh anniversary
of this society was celebrated Sunday
evening, at Music hall, with a banquet,
concert, speeches and jollification.
Fully $50 members and friends of the
society were seated at the tables when
the substantial repast was served.
Palms and flowers decorated the ta-
bles.
The imperial red, white and black
and the stars and stripes were blend
ed in the decorations on the walls, and
happy smiles decorated the counte-
nances of the celebrators. On the
stage a complete orchestra, under the
direction of Prof. Lantz, furnished
stirring music, blending Die Watch
am Rhein," and other melodies of the
Fatherland with 'the Red, White and
Blue" and patriotic hymns of the re-
public.

FLAMES
Famed by a High
Wind
Destroyed SO, 100000 Worth Of
Property.

Waterbury, Conn, Feb. 3.-For ten
hours last night and this morning
flames famed by a high wind held
sway over the business portion Of this
city, causing loss that will exceed
$3,O00,O00. The business portion Of the
city. forming n triangle bounded on the
north by exchange place, on the west
by Bank street, on the south by Grand
street, and on the east by South Main
street, was almost wiped out.
The first fire which started in the big
store of the Reid ~ Hughes Dry Goods
Company, on Bank Street, was not
considered under control until about
S3,G00,000 worth OF property had been
destroyed. About the time the firemen
supposed they had the flames under
control second fire broke out in the
Scovil house. the city's leading hotel,
remodeled by the late Judge II. @. Lew
is few years ago, at an expense of
about $4,000. and the establishment
was completely wrecked, The occu-
pants of the hotel were forced to seek
the street in their night clothes. With
the ringing of the second alarm the en-
tire city was thrown into panic.
There was fierce gale blowing and
sparks from the burning hotel were
driven I'm lurid showers over great
area. The occupants of buildings lotat-
ed In the path of the wind prepared
to leave. Although the Waterbury fire
department was reinforced from near
by cities, 1t was for time impossible
to stay the progress of the flames. The
fire in its entirety, burned over foul
acres, of the city's business section.
Among the prominent buildings to
tally destroyed are the block occupied
by the Reid Il Hughes dry goods Co.
the plant of the Waterbury American
Tie Masonic Temple. The Scovil ant
Franklin houses The W. l.. Douglas
Shoe Co., the Johnson block, the Sal
4 vation Army Workingmen's home, ant
scores OF other buildings In all abou
me hundred of the most promlncn
business houses are burned out.
Rarely have firemen been obliged tt
contend against worse conditions than
those which prevailed from first to las
in this disastrous conhagrntion. Th'
wind was blowing gale and the coli
was intense. It seemed at one time al
though every structure in th
heart Of the city would b'
destroyed. In some instance
