speak of the act as “working

- . More Than 100 Buildings Burned and One

Life Last by the Flames.

BOSTON, Map l7.—A stretch of smoking,
blackened ruins, covering more than a
dozen acres was the picture at. the scene
of yesterday’s fire at the south end reveal-
ed when the sun rose this morning. A few
steamers were still at work, and scores of
firemen ware still exploring the burned
buildings. Household furniture and prop-
erty of every description littered the
street-s, and hundreds of people made
homeless by the conflagration were vainly
searching the ruins of their houses in the
hOpe of finding something of value remain-
ing.

Madison park, just south of Cabot street,
was completely covered with furniture
and household goods, piled in a confused
mass several feet in height. Scores of po—
llcemen patrolled the burned district, and
thousands of sightseers thronged outside
the ropes.

A careful investigation shows that about
12 acres of ground were burned over, and
that about $500,000 worth of property was
destroyed. About 187 buildings, over two-
thirds of which were wooden structures,
have been wholly destroyed and 22 more
partially burned. More than 75 per cent
of the burned dwellings were dwelling
houses which were occupied by the poorer
classes, and 467 families, or more than
2,800 people, are homeless.

The Boston Baseball association and the
city of Boston are the heaviest financial.
losers. The property of the former was
valued at $70,000 and is a total loss. The
city’s loss is over $100,000.

But one fatality has been reported, a
8-months-old baby being suffocated on
Berlin street. About 17 persons were in.
jured, none of them seriously. The most
common injury is to the eyes, nearly all
of the fire chiefs being affected by the
smoke and intense heat.

Nearly a dozen invalids taken from
houses now in ruins were conveyed to the
hospitals during the fire, but; none were
injured or seriously affected by the trans-

er.

The burned district extends from 54 Ber-
l 1‘ street to Walpole street and to 8 Coin
ncll street; from Grinnell and Sarsfield,
on the north side, to 31 Snrsfield, then
around in the rear of Sarsfield street to
1077 Tremont. street, including all the
buildings on \Valpole, Cunard and Coven.
try streets; across TremOnt street to 1082;
then in the rear of Tremont to Sterling.
and along the north side of Sterling street
to Cabot, on the ,east side, where the fire
was checked.

From 41 Cabot street the ruins extend
westward through the block to Tremont,
thence along the south side of Burke street
to Berlin, and on the latter thoroughfare
as far as Benson street. \Vithin this dis
trict every building is either gutted or
completely destroyed.

The Fire King In New York. .

NEW YORK, May 17.——Fire broke out
about 4 o’clock this morning in one of the
wooden buildings in the inclosure former-

street. Before it had been extinguished
the fire spread over three blocks, between
Sixty-seventh and Seventy-first streets,
Avenue A and the East river. Over $400,-
000 damage was done, 25 horses perished
in the flames, and several people were in-
jured. The sudden changing of the wind
caused the spreading of the flames when
they Were thought to be under control.

Maxims to Remember.

Every town’s success depends upon
the success of its people.

Extravagance in school expenditures
is a commendable virtue.

Driven to the wall by Wealth, the
poor Often accept vice as an alternative.

Labor should be dignified, intelligent
and, above all, well fed.

Cultivate a patriotic spirit in the
young. Let the stars and stripes and, if
need be, the notes of the tin horn float
on every breeze.

The enterprise Of a town may be ac-
curately gauged by the appearance of
its streets, its public buildings and its
parks.

Whatever advantages avillage or city
may possess, the citizens should co-oper-
ate with the existing forces to stimu-
late what otherwise must prove a slower,
even though inevitable, growth.

Cast about wherever you will and dis-
cover that within a comparatively lim-
ited area. there is an incalculable wealth
of earth’s treasures, the transactions in
which even for a day are beyond meas-
ure. ,

\Vhat Trees to Plant.

A Writer in the Philadelphia Ledger,
who has made a careful study of the
subject of tree planting in cities and
towns, gives the following list to select
from and prefers them in the order
given: Norway maple, sugar maple, sil-
ver maple, linden, plane, catalpa, horse
chestnut. paper birch and paulownia.
