BUILDING IN ALAMEDA

/ ALAMEDA, Dec 23.-With the com
ing of the holiday season the local
realty market has quieted somewhat,
but the dealers look for renewed activ-
ity all along the line when the new
year gets fairly under way There has
been but little done in the renting line
for the reason that houses to rent are
a scarcity. The new residences that
are being completed in nearly every in
stance have prospective tenants wait
ing to occupy them. There is prac-
tically no building being done outside
of home building.
The most important business block
that has been erected here this year,
and will be when finished an ornament
to the city, is the reinforced concrete
building that is to house the. Citizens
Bank This structure is receiving the
finishing touches, and the officials of
the Citizens Bank are counting on NOV
ing into the building about the 1st of
March,
Scheurman Brothers have completed
four cottages and a two-story apart
ment-house on Oak street and San An-
tonic avenue. These Will be ready for
occupancy within a few days.
Eight houses are being erected by the
Alameda Land Company at the corner
of Santa Clara avenue and Walnut
street The builders are hurrying work
on the structures and expect to have
them ready for tenants in few weeks

BRAVE: men SAVE
MANY LIVES

HALIFAX, N. S., Dec. 23.-Word was
received here today from Port Dufferin,
a small coast town some sixty miles
east of this city, of the destruction by
fire of the passenger steamer Strath-
coma, owned by the Halifax and Canso
Steamship Company and bound from
this port for Canso and Guysborough.
That no lives were lost is due prfnci-
pally to the heroism of the engineers
and fireme.a, who stuck to their posts
until the steamer was beached and
every one Of the $50 passengers landed.
In less than an hour after the beach
ing of the steamer she was burned to
the waters edge.
The Stra thcona left here last even
ing under command of Captain Reid.
Most of the passengers were returning
after few days OF Christmas shop
ping in Halifax. A few hours after
leaving port fire was discovered in the
afterhold. Despite the efforts of the
officers and crew the flames spread
rapidly. When the cry of fire was
raised the widest confusion reigned
The passengers, most Of them clad only
in their night clothes, rushed on deck
and made dash for the lifebDats, but
the crew prevented panic The boats
were not lowered. but were made ready
for use In case the flames completely
enveloped the steamer before land
could be reached The terror-stricken
passengers were huddled together in
the bow of the ship. which was headed
for Port Dufferin, the nearest place on
the treacherous coast where the steamer
could find q harbor.
While the Strathcona was driven
toward land at top speed, the sailors
tried to fight back the flames with
streams of water The draft caused
by the steamers rapid progress, how
ever, famed the flames into greater
fury, and in short time the entire in
terror portion OF the vessel was on fire.
Down in the engine rooms the en-
gineers and hremen stuck bravely to
their posts. although the flames had be-
gun to surround them. Not until the
