it disappeared with the switch engine

Mr.. Stevens is not without hope. how

a painful remembrance will accompany
Mr.. Stevens through life, occasioned by
this sad and Unforeseen disappointment

WAS SAD DISAPPOINTMENT.
Mr.. Stevens Flag House Was Fine
One, but Too Large.

Mr. Stevens. the one-armed Waterman
at the Frisco crossing on Douglas ave
nue., is now knocking on fortune. The
world doesn't look as bright to him now
as it did few days ago. He was per-
mitted TO take one look at the object
that brought him happiness and then it
was taken away from him again, per-
haps forever.
The house which is to furnish him
shelter while he is keeping watch at the
crossing came in on one of the Frisco
trains. and in his language it was a peach
one Of the great big, yellow, juicy kind
The building was a large hexagonal
structure. newly painted without, and
oeiled and painted within. 1t was well
lighted. having plenty of windows. and
was arranged Tor convenience and ap-
pearance. II was fitted with shutters,
and taken altogether it was the incest
structure of its kind in the city. None
of the others would compare with it,
Mr.. Stevens was justly proud Of his
flag house and was wearing a smile that
made his friends believe that he had
been appointed president of the road.
He greeted all with It's a peach: there
is not an office in the new passenger sta
ton that is in the same class with it,"
Such was his good fortune and the
happiness il occasioned. but like most
good things it did not last long. His
moments of bliss were doomed TO be few
He eagerly watched his prize as the
switch engine brought it to the crossing
preparatory to unloading il. Then il
was that his high hopes were suddenly
dashed to pieces. The flag house was
nine feet across each way and would oc
cupy four feet more Of ground than they
had on which they could place it. There
was only one corner on which il could
be placed and on this corner the side
walk was so near the tracks that there

OF Herpicide Is in Giving 1t Thor

pouring out of the station, and it was
soon found >that the building was on fire.
The alarm was given and help arrived
promptly but it was impossible to save
the building Nearly everything was
carried out of the office and waiting
rooms An amount of coal was in the
cellar. The cause of the fire is sup
posed to be a defective chimney. The
building was put up about 20 years ago
and was a modern, well equipped station.
The old station was made into a freight
house at the time this was built and the
office has been opened in the old build
ing for the present.
