the half frozen crowd give! But their

Meanwhile the fire is gaining head

Smoke oozes from the topmost parts
Of the large buildin. Again the cruel
flames are momentarily subdued only
to reappear more tiercely and further

steady streams Of water pour upon
the blazing mass. But suddenly a
thrill of horror sweeps thro' the ever
increasing crowd. The pressure of

tiremen covering them with a thick
coat of ice. The roof gradually sinks
In as the spouts of yellow flames shoot
out thro' the shingles and lick up the
dry rafters and shingles with seem
ingly inappeasible appetite.
Now the walls are enveloped with
flames and soon fall with a rush and
roar to the ground. The flames
seem encouraged to keep on with
their awful work Of destruction. The
intense heat causes a nearby building
to take fire, but by quick work the
flames are subdued before they can
destroy the building. There is now
nothing left of the hotel but a pile
Of burnt wood, and with six steady
streams Of water playing upon it and
the neighboring buildings there is no
possible chance for the fire to spread.
The water Is allowed to play upon
this mass until nothing now remains

smouldering wood from six to fifteen
feet deep. ARTHUR Toms.
