has continued siuco often with the
velocity of a gale LaBt oveniug the
weather was as blizzard like as it has
been any time this winter The wind
was icy cold and considerable suow fell
which was blown into drifts along with
the dust of tho streets The meroury
has fallen steadily and last night it
reached the minimum of six degrees
The weather is particularly disagreeable
in that people generally have thoir
thoughts set on spring aud aro anxious
to have the balmy season ushered in
without unnecessary delay There is
one thing for which all may have reason
to bo thaukful however aud that is that
the dovolopmout of fruit blossoms has

Tbo small dwelling second east of the
North Fork river bridgo on Norfolk
avenue was destroyed by fire about 10
oclock last night An alarm was
turned in and the department responded
promptly but as the property was out
side tho water limits tho hose companies
could do no good and did not therefore
go over with their carts The hook and
ladder truck was hauled over but the
company could do nothing toward sav
ing the building It had been occupied
by a family up to a week or ten days
ago but has been vacant since The
origin of the fire is a mystery but in
cendiarism is strongly hinted at as there
was a plainly distinguishable smell of
coal oil in tho vicinity The property
belonged to Carl Asmus and there was
no insurance on tho building Mr
Asmus however does not put an esti
mate on the loss as it has never been of
value to him He thinks that perhaps
the loss is the greater to the poor people
who havo occupied it from time to time
paying for the privilege little or no rent
Ho is inclined to believe that the fire
was an accidental one Btarted by
children or tramps

St Louis March If Perhaps tho
most disastrous lire in the history of
the southslde yesterday burned the leo
storage plant of tho Anheuser Busch
Brewing company the repair shop of
the American Car nnd Foundry com
pany together with a number of box
cars the factory of Stule Co pickle

were Injured but not seriously The
burned district embraced two square
blocks bounded by Kcpp Utah First
nnd Kosciusko streets
The tire broke out nt 3225 In one of
the Anheuser Busch Ice houses nil of
which are connected A spark from a
passing switch engine is credited with
having Ignited strnw In tho loft
While the lire was In progress a stiff
southeast wind blew across the river
from tho Illinois side fanning tho
flames and making the work of the fire
men an exceedingly difficult one Piles
of lumber adjacent to the stornge
house quickly ignited causing n heat
tlint wns Intense The wind blew
great clouds of smoke Into the faces
of the firemen Several valuable build
ings which escaped damage were
seriously threatened By far the
greater danger attached to buildings
more remote from tho scene of de
struction but In the direct line of the
wind For miles the river levee Is
fronted with lumber yards factories
nnd warehouses while on tho railroad
tracks with their numerous switches
were scores of box cars ninny of them
loaded with lumber nnd other material
which would make rich food for thc
flnmes The high wind lifted burning
embers aud carried them for blocks
to the northwest terrorizing residents
nnd several times the department was
compelled to divide Its force In nn
Fwer to reports of the igniting of fires
elsewhere No buildings not in the Im
mediate path of the flames suffered
damage however although cautious
residents and business men ns far
away as six blocks from the scene re
moved goods nnd furnishings from
dwellings nnd stores in a fear that tho
fire would develop Into a widespread
conflagration
