FIRE AT WATERWoRKS.
Feared Waycross May Have a Water
Famine To-day.


Waycross, Ga. Dec 1.-The water
works station, in heart of the city,
was partially destroyed by fire at 8
O'Clock tonight. No one was present
in the building at the time, and the
blaze probably started from sparks in
the boiler room. The doors of the
building were all closed, and the fire
was not discovered until there was a
sudden burst Of fame, which lighted up
the streets for blocks around.
The fire department responded
promptly, but the principal credit in
saving the plant probably lies with B.
D. Finn, former waterworks inspector,
who entered the engine room in the
midst of the flames. He was severely
scalded, but stuck to his post until
the fire was checked. The machinery
in the plant was worth more than $10,-
000 but tonight it is not believed to
have suffered great damage.
The loss to the city is not considera-

WORK OF LIFE SAVERS.
Annual Report on the Service Made
by ITS superintendent.

by Its Superintendent.
Washington, Dec. 1.-The annual re-
port of the general superintendent of
the life-saving service shows that dur
ing the year assistance was rendered
by the life-saving crews to 1,061 YES
sells of all kinds, involving the lives
of more than $500 persons, and prop
erty to the value of nearly $4,000 900.
The crews also rescued 1903 persons
not on board vessels from various peril
Gus situations, and through signal
warnings of the beach patrols saved
from possible disaster 161 vessels In
danger of stranding. The vessels
wrecked were generally of small ton
mage. The total number of disasters
TO vessels of all kinds was no, with a
valuation of $6,705,530, of which $780,
$50 was saved and s1,375,450 was lost
The total number of persons involved
was 3,32S, of whom "a lost their lives.
The telephone system maintained by
the service has proved of great assist
ance, and much attention has been
given to its Improvement and extern
sion. The life-saving service lines now
extend, practically unbroken, from
Maine to the Carolinas and have con-
nection at all important points with
the commercial telephone and telegraph
lines of the country and also, desirable,
with the lighthouses and weather bu-
reau Offices on the coast.
The iife-saving stations, the report
says, constitute an important factor in
the system of coast guard patrol main
tadned by the Navy Department for
protecting the coast in time of war,
and II Is expected that the wireless
telegraph system now being tested by
the navy, when sufficiently perfected,
will be extended TO the life-saving sta
tione; in fact. plans already are be-
ing prepared for its installation.

of Golden Hill. The Chinese stated
that both sides suffered tremendous
losses in the operation necessary to
bring about this state of affairs.
The members of the Russian inteli-

report that Port Arthur has been cap
tured, are inclined to believe the re-
ports true to the extent that the JAP
anese have made great progress in
their operations about the besieged
fortress.
