BUILDING Quilted
BY MORNING FIRE
Blaze, Believed Incendiary,
Gives Firemen a
Hard Fight.
WASHINGTON. TIMES BUREAU,
ALEXANDRIA. VA. DEC 8

Fire, which for a time threatened to
destroy the brick building formerly oc-
cupied by the First National Bank, at
the corner of Prince and Lee streets,
O. broke out In the rear Of that building
shortly after $50 o'clock this morning.
The fire when discovered had gained
great Roadway, and by the time the de-
partment arrived flames were shooting
out of all the windows i'm the rear of the
building. The Reliance fire engine is
undergoing repairs, thus leaving only
one engine, the Columbia, in Service. AS
soon as Chief Pettey arrived ne saw
that one engine would be unable to cope
with the blaze and ordered out the re-
serve engine.
j.. 80 II required nearly two hours work
- 20 extinguish the flames, and by the
time this was done the rear Of the
building had been Quilted.
The building is owned by Robert
Aitcheson and wOrkmen were engaged
in tearing out the woodwork inside, pre-
paratory TO converting 1t into modern
dwelling.
~ When seen this morning Mr.. Aitcheson
said he could not yet estimate his loss
There was small amount Of Insurance
on the building.
The origin of the fire is a mystery.
s In the opinion of the police it was the
work OF an incendiary but others are
of the opinion that workmen in the
building may have dropped a match
which may nave started a smoulderiug
fire.

ADJUSTMENTS
Great Horsemanship.

What may safely be called the great
est motion picture ever seen in Homo
lulu is shown at the Orpheum this
week. It represents a detachment of
cavalry in European country going
through the maneuvers and they are
maneuvers that make the hair of the
audience rise. The most terrific jumps
are taken by horses and men and in
one scene they jump into stream and
swim across. Another shows them tax
ing the water and wading. The most
awe-inspiring picture of the series is
that showing the cavalrymen descend
ing a steep trail, so steep, in fact, that
it seems exactly perpendicular. In but
few exceptions, the horses roll with
the men underneath and in one man
is seen to go down with his horse on
top and when he rises his arm hangs
limp. It is a great series of pictures
and is worth all it costs to see the
whole show, which, by the way, is the
very best the company has so far put
on. The house was crowded from wall
to wall. MANY persons being unable to
get seats. These followed the crowd to
the Park where another good show was
on and where seats were all taken.
These two places of amusement seem
to be thoroughly well patronized at all
