FIRE in BREWERY.
BOILER HOUSE
THE SKY WAS LIT UP AND
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE RAN
TO THE SCENE OF THE CON-
FLAGRATION.

What appeared to be big fire and
what actually was bad one occurred
in the boiler house of the North Pa
ci6c Brewing Company's plant short
ly before II o'clock last night. There
was strong east wind blowing, and
only quick work on the part Of the
firemen prevented the entire plant
from being laid low.
At this writing it is impossible to
state the amountof the loss or the ac-
tual damage done.
Manager Schimpff said it might run
as high as 5000 or $4,000, but could
not estimate it with any accuracy as
he did not know how badly the en-
gine and other machinery was dam
aged -.
The fire was we'll handled, and this
proves that Astoria has fire fighting
crew to be proud of-and it is.

ARKANSAS DIAMONDS.

NEW YORK, Feb 2O-That real
diamonds have been found in Arkan-
sas was the statement made in a
paper read by George r. Kunz of New
York, one of the foremost American
experts on precious stones, before the
American Institute of Mining Eng
ineers yesterday. Kunz stated that
about lao diamonds had been found
near Murfreesboro. Ark, and thar
they were without doubt the genuine
product Of the country. He said.
From the 200 karats available for
examination, it appears that the Ark
ansas gems compare favorably with
most OF those in South Africa. Their
average size is fairly good, though SO
far none larger than 6.s karats have
been found. There is large propor-
ton Of white stones, for the most part
OF high grade in brilliancy and free
dom from flaws. Some of the yellow
ones are Of exceptional quality.
He pointed out that these diamond
finds are isolated and that no cred
ence should be given to report that
the continuance of the vein has been
found. There is no vein to begin
with, he said.

us. We kept as close together as we
could, waiting for daylight.
