Boston, Mass, Nov. is.-The long
pier shed Of the Warren line in Charles

other highly infammable material, was
completely consumed by fire tonight
and it was only BY the utmost exertion
that the fremen were able to save the
adjoining property, principally the big
Hoosac tunnel grain elevator and the
White Star line pier shed. The steam

out into the stream The Danish steam
Ter T. p. Holmblad, which was in the
Warren line dock was towed out and
Ia small schooner moored at the end
dfifted away in safety. a coal lighter
was also saved.
The fire burned very rapidly but the
wind sent the flames toward the harbor
end Of the shed. The entire north end
Of the city was deluged with sparks,
some dropping on Washington street as
far AZ Newspaper Row and numerous
small fires resulted. At midnight the
shed was still burning fiereely but it
looked as If the FIRE was under control.
The loss is estimated at quarter Of a

Too much cannot be said in praise Of
last evenings entertainment and espec.
tally Of the Katy Did operetta, which
was given by twenty five young ladies'
in manner worthy Of much commen-
dation, and good share Of the praise
is due to Miss Emma Phillips who spent
several weeks in drilling the young peo.
pie It is a delightful little operetta
and it was most successfully presented.
Miss Phillips took the part of the fairy
queen and did especially well as did
Miss Margaret Brown as Starlight and
Miss Nellie johnson as Moonlight. The
rest of the programme was a very en-
ioyabIe reading by Miss Mckenzie and
n piano trio By the Misses Walker Nc
Kenzie and Phillips.
The fair will continue every afternoon
