Last Wednesday evening, about 3 o'clock, an alarm of fire was turned in from St. Ann avenue. When the sharp tones of the fire bell brought the peo- pie to the streets, sheet of flame was seen shooting up into the sky near the "Finn" boarding house, that appeared to come from a big fire. Two com panies of flremen and three or four hundred common people were soon on the ground. The gate valve at the 300 was opened, permitting the water from the Treadwell water system to flow in to tho inch pipe that runs along the avenue. Two streams of water under heavy pressure soon reduced the fire, which was all in one-story frame building occupied by a number of 'Slavonians. The main part of the building was badly charred, and the contents destroyed, but adjoining buildings and even a part of the one on fire were not injured, SO we may con- sider that our fremen did good work, The fact that there was no wind helped materially.

 Fire was discovered last Friday morning, in the building next to the Odd Fellows Hall, occupied by hand laundry. A defective stove pipe, run ming through an attic caused all the trouble. The fire boys soon made a dead one of it, and the entire damage was confined to the property. This same building has caught fire in the same way so many times that remedy seems imperative.

No matter which way you turn something con- fronts you that will be just right. You know too that in dealing here you get just what you think you get and get it right. E. Valentine.

TURKEYRECEIVES ULTIMATUM
Germany Sends Warning to Sultan

Must Immediately Manifest Some
Regard for Opinions of Euro

Constantinople. Aug 3L-What amounts
to an ultimatum has been served upon
Sultan Abdul Hamid by the German Am
bassador here.
While couched in as diplomatic words
as possible the message coming straight
from Prince Won Buelow, the German
chancellor, warns the Sultan that he
must Immediately yield to the programme
Of the powers for reforms within his do
main. Failure to do so. it is broadly init
mated, viii cost him the throne
In delivering the message, 1t is believed
the German ambassador acted in a way
as the mouthpiece Of all the European
governments. Kaiser Wilhelm has in the
last few years been recognized as the
closest friend of Abdul Hamid among
the Old World monarchs. Won Buelow S
advice, therefore, IS Ike a tip from a
well wisher that IT IS time for the Sultan
to manifest some regard for European
opinion.
In view Of the regard Abdul has always
shown for the Kaiser's advice. It Is be-
lieved the "ultimatum" will have the de-
sired effect
