Frame Buildings Menaced.

Ten streams of water were thrown on
the flames. which threatened for a time
the adjoining frame buildings. The blaze
was entirely extinguished in less than
an hour. and was confined almost en-
tirely to the top floor, although stock
on the third floor was badly scorched.
The damage to the building is esti-
mated by Fire Marshal Nicholson to be
about $1,000 while the stock. which was
practically destroyed by flames and wa
ter. was valued at about $4,000 by Mr..
Pollock.
Traffic on the 9th street car line was
at standstill for about half an
hour during the progress of the fire,
and many passengers bound for the ball
game were fearful they might DO late,
but the railway employees erected bridges
for the hose lines, allowing the cars to
pass underneath.
Several companies Of the fire depart
ment responded to an alarm yesterday
afternoon from box $50 and found some
trash in rear of the house of Mrs. NJ. r.
Reynolds, 1900 Belmont road, burning.

Taken to Atlantic CITY.

To help her daughter forget she had a
sweetheart in Washington, Mrs. Wheeler
decided to take a trip to Atlantic City.
and several days thereafter the daughter
was domiciled in a cottage at the New
Jersey resort.
About the same time Mr.. Huntington
also took to the travelling habit, his
friends say, and in a few hours was
promenading along the Boardwalk at At
lantic City, awaiting favorable oppor-
tunity for an elopement.
This was not long in coming, for the
bride-elect lost no time in answering a
short note sent her, and as the wedding
arrangements had been perfected In ad-
vance, the nupuals were celebrated with
the least possible delay. Mrs. Wheeler
was told Of the ceremony, and then Mr.
Wheeler was called over the long distance
telephone.
Now Mr.. and Mrs. Huntington are away
somewhere in the east on the honey
moon trip and planning to shortly take up
their residence in the National Capital.

any news Of his daughter, formerly Miss

For more than a year the young couple

Mrs. Wheeler was told by her daughter
that she wanted to marry Mr.. Dunning-
