REDUCE CITY FIRE LIMITS.
Council Has Hurried Meeting 20
Overcome Difficulties That Came
Up Unexpectedly.


The city council held a meeting
late yesterday afternoon for the pur-
pose of overcoming a difficulty that
arose over the city ordinance relative
to constructing wooden buildings
within the fire limits. 1t was learned
that the canning factory, Chris Tot
tens new residence and other build
ings in course Of construction, are
within the fire limits, and are being
built of wood 1t was not known that
the limits extended as far as the
blocks in which these houses are To-
Gated, and thus the owners are blame
less. Further, it was considered that
the limits extend too far, and accor-
dinghy the council passed an ordi-
nance taking out some of the terri
tory not on Hahn street. The ordin-
ance providing for the change and
giving details, appears elsewhere in
this paper.

Portsmouth. N. H, Aug. 12.-The
meeting Of the peace conference this
morning lasted little more than an
hour. The Russian reply was deliv-
cred by NJ. Witte, and the meeting

a critter, the blood becomes
stagnant and it is up to the
rancher to get it started again

Some cut off the ears and tails
OF the cattle in order to get the
blood started and run them
about to get them warmed up.
Some claim that this method is
about as good a one as can be
used. Cows can be vaccinated

does not insure their being i'm

Two had already died and others

Of the disease is a mystery among
