Patrick Mcintyre Dead.

Tuesday morning at ten
O'Clock Patrick Mcintyre, an
old and respected citizen Of Lex
ington, died at his home on North
10th street. He had been in
feeble health for several years
and his death, while expected
at most any time, was a shock
to his friends and relatives.
Mr.. Mcintyre was born in the
county of LongfOrd, Ireland, in
1927. In 1849 he went to Eng
land where he learned the trade
of stone mason, and remained
there until 1852 when he came
to America and located in Lex
ington. During the early steam
boat days he opened a coal mine
along the river and furnish
ed coal to the boats. For the
past several years he with his
wife have conducted a boarding
house.
He was married in Lexington
in 1867 to Miss Margaret Muir
ply, and she with the following
children survive: Mrs. Geo.
Berghoeffer, Mrs. Harry Nal
lot, Miss Bessie, John, Thomas
and William, all of Lexington,
and Matthew, of st. Louis. He
is also survived by two brothers,
John and Peter Mcintyre, of
Lexington, and one sister, Mrs
Rose Palmer, of Kansas City.
The funeral was held yesterday
morning at ten o'clock from the
Catholic church.

Old Buildings Burn.

Friday afternoon a fire
which broke out about three
thirty o'clock did considerable
damage to the buildings owned
by the Kriehn Estate and Judge
Richard Field ON Franklin aven-
ue between 11th and 18th streets.
The fire is supposed to have
started from defective flue in
residence apartments over Hop
kins' Machine shop, recently oc-
cupied by John Slusher. The
flames scattered under the roof
ing, but for a long time it was
impossible to get to them with
water. The terrible cold also
proved a great deterrent to the
firemen, as the nearest water
plug was frozen and attachments
had to be made from a distance.
The fire burned until late in the
evening and the steady work in
the cold was a severe strain on
the fireman.
The old garage and the store
building occupied by Clark &
Cunningham, plumbers, were al
most a total wreck, but every
thing of value was carried out
before the flames broke into the
lower story. Living apartments
