day morning. The fire started from
some unknown cause, and 1t spread
rapidly with the help of strong
wind, SO that the entire structure was
consumed within an hour. No one
had been In the building since early
in the day, as the students and teach
ers left Wednesday for their Christ
mas vacation. All their effects were
burned with the exception OF few
trunks and a little furniture, II is
thought that the fire started in the
front of the building on the first
floor.
The loss is heavy. The building
itself was worth $4,000. partly in
sured. In II were furnishings aggre-
eating from $1,000 TO $4,000 In the
basement we're many school supplies,
stored there for safe Keeping. All
of these are a dead loss. Associate

brary, In addition to many valuable
documents and papers, amounting to
more than $1,000. Clarence Il. Hin
of the science department also lost a
valuable library, approximating
$1,000 Luther T. Smith lost many

other effects.

PATIENCE is NO LONGER VIRTUE
Says Mayor Burke in Complaining
About Street Car Service.

ABDUL OkECCh Odi w WV
Burlington, Dec. 16.-Complaints
against the poor street car service of
the Burlington Traction company
were aired at a special meeting OF the
board OF aldermen Wednesday night
when Mayor Burke presented the fol-
lowing communications
From sense of duty | wish to
call your attention TO an important
matter. namely the poor service that
the Burlington Traction company is
now giving and has been giving IN
the past, owing to a lack of power at
intervals throughout the year. The
cause for complaint has become 30
pronounced that feel that something
should be done In order that more
constant and better service be given
the public in the future.
In asking for better service feel
that | am fully justified as such SER
vice was one Of the things promised
by the said company when its pres
ent franchise was granted by the
city.
There comes a time when patti
ence ceases TO be virtue and In this
matter believe the time has come
when, in the interest OF our mer-
chants aud the public generally,
should recommend that a committee
be appointed and instructed to pro
coed forthwith In making an investi
cation and reporting back TO this
board as soon as possible
owing to the financial standing oil
this company Burlington Is fully Jus
tilted In insisting upon having The
present condition remedied.'
The result OF the discussion was
that a committee of three aldermen
was chosen to investigate the situa
ton and report whether the compan!
Is justified in relying on the so-calle'
tin" engine until auxiliary waite
power can be secured either from We
gennes or some other point IN Yer
