A FIRE in Long Island City along
side a frame shanty, in which were
400, pounds of dynamite, was watch
ed by. hundreds OF passengers dis
embarking from the Thirty-fourth
Street ferry boats nearby, who stop
ped to gaze on their way home from
work, unconscious OF their danger
They were rushed away en- masse
by the police as soon as the blue
coats reached the scene. The crowd
needed NO urging when 1t learned
what was in the shanty. Quick work
by two engine companies suppressed
the fire, but not until il had badly
scorched the side of the dynamite
shanty. The whole of Hunters
Point would have gone up to the
sky if the fire once got in there "
said the foreman.

Fleeing Adventurous Iambs.

Not long ago the sole and absorb
ing mission OF Edmonton, in a COM
mercial way, was to blk ignorant
klondike adventurers-poor fellows
who thought that Alaska was per-
haps 100 miles west of Winnipeg-
into Quitting there for the land
OF gold. There were Englishmen
bound for the Klondike who brought
with them as far as Edmonton their
own baled hay-a fact, though it
seems impossible, even for an Eng
lish man-and others who brought
traction engines to carry them thence
merrily over the Rockies to the
Nondike, and yet others who had
barrels rugged with axles and shafts
Tor horse draft, which in transit
nicely mingled nails, sugar, baking
powder and other goods into one
homogeneous fabric, and many other
similarly crazed and wholly idiotic
men, who thought they knew where
the frontier was and how it might
be mastered.-Emerson Hough, In
