HALF THE TOWN BURNED. Clayton. on the St. Lawrence River, Visited by n Disastrons Fire. Srnscusn, July 12.-—A special from Clayton, on the St. Lawrence river, says that the worst fire which has occurred there within thchistory of the town broke out in the bums of tho Hubbard House. For a time it was feared that the whole village would be consumed: As it, is over half of the business portion of the town is in ashes, and from $75,000 to $100,000 worth of property is destroyed The fire was discovered by James Steele, a porter in the hotel, who found the up- per portion of the burn a mass of flames. He gave the alhrm, and several horses and other live stock were with difliculty ros- cued. The village department, constitut- ing one engine and two hose companies, responded to the alarm and soon had a couple of streams playing w the flames. The efforts of the men were apparently useless, however, for within a few min- utes the fire had spread to the hotel and adjoining buildings. The 40 guests of the house were at sup- per, and when the alarm was given there was a wild rush to the mount to secure property and belongings. Everything of value, it is thought, was taken from the building, which was completely destroyed. A brisk southerly wind fanned tho flames, and it was soon seen that the department was inadequate to keep them under con- trol. Dispatches were sent 111 Alexandria Buy, Carthage and Watcrtown. Engines were sent on special trains, and within two hours were at work subduing the fire. BASEDALL. NAT10\ .11. ”1.11.1 1:1..1111-23.

After a month the runaways boldly rc- turncd to Ackcrmzm' 1 house. There was a bitter quarrel, Acl.1rman threatening to kill them both, but it finally ended in a game of cards for the woman, and her husband won. “I'll tell you what we’ll do," said Ut- ter. “We'll plays game of poker for her." Ackcrman agreed. The woman was in- different. The men decided to play “freeze out,”'5 cent chips and :2 limit. "If I win 8:3," growled Ackerman, scowling at his wife, "it's almost worth while taking her back." The men dealt the cards und began to bet. The woman looked on. It maybe hero remarked that she ov crlookod Uttcr' s hand, which was not flutteringto her hus- band. they played for half an hour, and Ackermnn was about 00 coats ahead. Ut- ter dealt.

Ackermen lleld Three Queens. “Three tens," said Utter, laying down his hand. “Three queens," said Ackcrmnn, raking in the pot “Now you've got four,” said Utter. And he walked out. More quarrels. Two months ago Ackerc man went to Havorstmw, N. Y., and found work in a brickyard. He returned to Marlontown on the Fourth of July. His wife was still living with her mother, but Aciterman heard that she and Utter had often been together during his ab- some.
