MOOSE SMOKER.
Over 300 Members Attend the Big
 Meeting.

Over thiee hundred members of the Loyal Order of Moose assembled in the rooms of that lodge last night in one of the most important busi- ness sessions that has been held by that organization in many weeks.
 It is generally conceded that dur ing the summer season the attend ance at frate4naA societies is not what it is during the cooler months. A special effort was made to get the Moose together last evening. ana it was successful.
 Stirring addresses were made by several members of the order. Many important projects were started, which means much not only to the or der but also to Hot Springs. At the conclusion of the business session a most delightful smoker" was given. A committee consisting Of U. H. Berry. H. D. Ehrlich and Wal ter NJ. Ebel had been appointed to look after the refreshments and en- tertainment and they left nothing to be desired. It is the intention of this organization which is the larg- est fraternity society in Hot Springs, to enlarge their present quarters, in- stall an ideal club room, with spe cial facilities for the ladies. and fea- ture at least once a month entertain ments like the one last night.

A fierce and destructive appearing
free ranged on the peninsula east of this
city Tuesday afternoon and night and
its reflection could be seen for many
miles. A dense smoke about 5 o'clock
first attracted attention and as darkness
came on the bright flames could be seen
leaping high in the air as they sprang
among the dry tops OF the palmettos
aud other trees, while nearer the
groupd had the appearance Of roar
ing furnace. Being driven by a stiff
north wind the fire spread fast and
much anxiety was felt for the bean
growers and other settlers as far down
as Gilbert's Bar, but after Two hours it
reversed its course and burned rapidly
TO windward for several miles. 1t was
a grand scene to look at from this side
of the river when stretch Of nearly
ten miles of flame reaching seemingly
to the heavens we're in full view and q
black cloud lowering over it for sew
eral hours before it died away. No re-
port of any damage has as yet been re-
