LANDMARK BURNED.

About I a. m. Sunday morning fire
frame building at Commercial and Sth
streets belonging to M. II. Dempsey and
for many years known as the Haverlaud
House. From an apparently insight
ficant blaze it grew into fire that gutted
and completely wrecked the building
leaving nothing but portion of the
east front standing. The upstairs was
divided into small apartments and
leased to Mrs. Rogers as an annex to
the Toledo House, some of the rooms be-
ing occupied.
Two fire-men overcome with smoke
and fireman Ohm struck in an eye,
were carried from the blazing building.
NJ. H. Dempseys loss has been esti
mated at $40, GOO and Mrs Rogers at
about $500 The ground floor was oc-
cupied by the following tenants, all of
whom, except the theatre, from which
everything movable was recovered, are
heavy losers: Crystal picture theatre,
H. Rudolph, Florist; Spyro Tsopels,
confectioner; Manitowoc Gas Co. The
southern and eastern part of the build
ing was built in 1851, and has had a
varied history Even did the ordinances
permit, nothing conld be made of the
ruins and it is understood that modern
huildinp will he erected uDOu the site
The late tenants will all continue in
business in new locations. AS is usual
in times OF excitement depraved scoun-
drels took advantage of the unprotected
condition of the unlucky tenants to in.
dulge in sneak thevery, the loo ting
continued even up to Monday morning.

LED ASTRAY BY THE SAMPLE.
Old TaiIor's Deduction Was Correct,
Though Rather Humorous.

II, X. Adair, a western detective,
was talking in Duluth about criminals
and the New Year.
"tndeniably' he said crime does
in some degree diminish in January on
account of the criminals New Year
resolutions. But "a New Years resolu.
ton doesn't make a permanently good
a summer"
Detective Adair smiled.
Last season" he said. my investi-
cations Of a crime passionnel' in Chi.
cago-that hotbed Of crime passion
nels'--Caused me to disguise myself as
a tramp.
"Shadowing a goycrncss, | sat on Il
park bench on bright afternoon, and
beside me sat a comfortable old gen
tleman in blue goggles | had on the
worst rags and tatters you can i'm
agne. | was especially proud of my
coat-a black coat patched with about
so patches. red, green, brown, and
even white.
Well, the old gentleman. after
time, began to talk to me. He said
Before my sight failed | was a
tailor-and, | assure you, sir, a sue
cessful tailor | knew my business
He laid his hand on my arm and
felt the texture of a green patch cut
from coat that had been given me
by the valet OF Michigan avenue
Clubman.
Thus, simply by the feel OF this
cloth he said, I know that you are
wearing a suit OF imported cloth worth
from $40 to $50"

ABLE TO ENDURE MUCH COLD.
Some Microbes Are Killed Only by
256 Degrees Below Zero.

The extremes of heat and cold at
which life can exist have much great.
er range than would be expected. For
some animals the greatest heat that
can be endured is 1O5 degrees. while
life, as We commonly understand It.
cannot endure beyond 1870 degrees, at
which temperature albumen Coagu-
lates.
But there are certain forms of life
that can stand much more heat. Some
molIuSks are not inCOmmoded until
l2O degrees is reached, while the lar.
vac of flies will endure 1866 degrees.
and certain kinds OF worms are not
killed until a temperature of l7S de.
grees is reached
As to cold, IT might almost be said
that no cold is great enough to de.
stroy all traces of life; certainly no
natural cold is great enough it is only
by the extreme cold produced by ar,
tiical means that all life is ended.
For frogs the limit Is rs below zero,
for myriapods So below, for snails 1Si
below, a greater cold than is produced
by nature.
But the greatest cold registers are
the bacteria. The germs of the plague
have kept their vitality for several
months in temperature Of "a below;
those of diphtheria have remained
alive after being immersed for an
hour In a refrIgerating solution at 76
below.
The greatest cold sustained is by
the germs of tuberculosis, which are
not affected by l4S below, and sue
cnmb only to cold represented by 256
below zero.
