GOODWIN BREAKS THE RECORD
Great Race Under Auspices of the
Century Road Club.

Although cut and bruised in many
places Edward Goodwin, the young motor
cyclist of this city, won the one-hundred
mile motor cycle race given by the Cen
tury Roard Club of America yesterday.
Goodwin had a fall at the thirty-fifth
mile and hurt his collar bone. AT first
it was thought that his collar bone was
broken, but after examination in near
by drug store it was found to be only
bad strain.
Goodwin plhckily continued in the race
and won by forty minutes, break
ing the one-hundred mile record
The machine he rode was a three-horse
power Orient"
Goodwin said there is not the slight
est doubt in my mind but that covered
several of my miles in less than min
ute each, my machine worked perfectly
from the start, but the fall delayed me
some time, while the other riders were
>able to keep on.

BARRELS OF FIRE
Day & 0'Donnell's Storage
Building on Sussex
Street Completely
Destroyed Last
Night.
LOSS BETWEEN $4,000 AND $4,000
Firemen Made Every Effort
to Stay the Progress OF
the Blaze But the
Material Was Too
Inflamable.
LOSS BETWEEN $4,000 AND $4,000

A FIRE which threatened to wipe out
at least block downtown broke out
shortly before ten o'clock last night in
the big frame building used by Dan &
O'Donnell for the storage of empty bar
rels on Sussex street. The building
was stored with twenty-five thousand
empty barrels. 1t is almost surrounded
by frame buildings. Splendid work on
the part of the fremen prevented a
spread of the flames beyond the big
frame building itself. Even frame build
ings that Immediately adjoined it were
barely scorched. Ner We're even the
wooden fences thar run from the build
ing to the brick block facing on Grand
street, more than scorched The build
hg itself. with its contents. was COM
pletely destroyed The estimate of the
loss is between $4,000 and $4,000.
The infiammabe material fed the
blaze that leaped high into the sky and
could be seen from every section of the
city, and made it appear that from a
distance a much bigger fire than it was.
"A great crowd was attracted, but the
police with but little difficulty kept it
back to a safe distance. The small boy
looked wistfully at the spectacle of
25,000 barrels blazing at once, as he re-
called his two or three-barrel bonfires
on election nights.
The inHammable nature of the con
tents Of the building itself did not give
the fremen even a fighting chance of
saving any portion of it. and a glance
at the ruins and their surroundings in
broad daylight gives almost the impress
sion that miracle had been wrought
in eonfning the. flames to the one big
building. 1t was two-story structure.
The dimensions We're 25x1OO feet. Just
across the street stands the cooperage,
the main part of the plant 1t was not
even scorehed
A second and third alarm followed
the first as soon as the fremen first on
the scene saw what they were up
against. Every available fire engine
down town was hurried to the scene,
and all the down town trucks were there
in readiness. 1t was a pretty spectacle.
Acting Chief Engineer Lowell was in
command.

CANNOT FIND HIS WIFE.
Henry w. Goodrich at Sea as
to Her Whereabouts.

Henry w. Goodrich, who came all the
way from Reed City, Michigan, to meet
his wife, who sent for him in this city,
is a very much disappointed man. So far
he has been unable to locate his wife, and
the police have not been able to help
him. Goodrich has lost both arms below
the elbows, and his wife came east a
year ago to find employment. He corre-
sponded with her up to four weeks ago,
addressing his letters to No. 22O Lexing-
ton avenue, New York, in care of Mrs.
Chapman.
He lost the letter his wife last sent
him containing an address at which his
wife said he would find her in this city.
Nor could he find the New York address
to which he sent his letters, or trace
Mrs. Chapman. He felt sure after the
story appeared in all the local and most
of the New York papers that she would
call at police headquarters in search of
him. He called there again this morn
ing and expressed his surprise and disap-
pointmept.
Despite the loss of his arms Mr.. Good
rich is a fine looking specimen of man
hood. He appears to have taken splen-
did care of himself, is well dressed and
neat in habits and appearance
