Below is a table showing in ronnd
numbers the increase of school children
in the state for the past fonr yean:
Census of 1885, number of children, 233,000.
Census of 1886, anmber of children, 256,000.
Census of 1887, number of children, 279, 00.
Census ol 1888, number of children, 298.000.
Census of 1889, number of children. 317,000.
The population of Nebraska, accord
ing to the return of the school children

rived at by using the usual multiple of
3 1-10.
The average annual increase of school
children for the years given above is
30,000, and if there is the same incream
in 1890 the population of the state will

see the great state of Nebraska follow
in the steps of Iowa and Kansas on the
amendment question. No matter what
wonld be the result in the east the vest
would BOOB be solid for prohibition.

letter is plain on one and not quite as
plain on the other, but can be seen quite
well on both. One has barb wire cut on
right knee and left a small bunch, and I

THE GREAT DISASTER AT SEATTLE.
the Totr AeuWtf OktUrattd by fire and m
Kumber of titws LoH.
Seattle (Wash. T.) dispatch: The en
tiro business )K.rtion of Seattle is now
nothing but smoking ruius. About 8
o'clock yesterday afternoon some tur
IKMitine caught fire iu the basement of
n two-story building on the southwest
rorner of Front and Madison streets.
The building, which was owned by Mrs.
M. J. Pontons, occupied by the Seattle
Shoe company on the first floor, and
thn upier floors as offices, was soon
alilnze. An alarm was instantly turned
in and the volunteer fire department re
sponded promptly, but it was impossible
to make headway agaiuxt the flames.
This building was at the corner of a row
of framo buildings all joined together
and of various heights. Within ten
minutes from the time it started the
flames developed into a conflagration.
The adjoining building was a whale
sale liquor store. As soon n the fire
reached them the barrels of liquor ex
ploded with a terrific report and scat
tered the embers about. The Denny
block, in which were a wholesale con
fectionery store, real estate, offices and
several other establishments and some
lodging apartments, was soon licked up
completely. Tuis cleared out the entire
square.
The flames then leaped across Marion
street, and in less than thirty minutes
another square was burned to ashes.
Included in this square were a grocery,
confectionery, fruit, drug store, plumb
ing and gas fitting establishment, tailor
shop, pawn shop, jewelry and other
stores.
While this square was burning the
opera house block, on the east side of
Front street, between Madison and
Marion and extending up Marion half
way to Second street, caught fire inthe
upper stories and was soon deslroveiU
This building was valued at $120,'000.
With it went, the Seattle pharmacy, the
warehouse of the Golden Utile bazaar.
Harris k Co.'s large dry goods and
clothing store, Abernathv's store,
Croose k Co.'s undertaking establish
ment, Latenr's dry goods house, Broad
man's paint and oil establishment, clear
ing up another square.
The Ken von block, to the north of
where tho fire started, had to go too,
notwithstanding the wind was from the
east. In this block were the job print
ing establishment of the Evening Times,
a music store and tailor shop. From
the opera house block the fire became a
monstrous "conflagration, swallowing up
the square to the south, consisting of
two-story frame buildings, occupied by
the Golden Rule bazaar, the California
clothing house, Gordon Brothers' tailor
ing establishment, the Oriental bazaar
anil several other big concerns.
Notwithstanding the progress of the
flames the fire department struggled
with a determination to save the most
valuable portion of Front street to the
south, between Columbia street and
Yesler, which was one magnificent row
of the fine brick buildings of two and
three stories, where four banks had their
offices. This row consisted of the Con
nor block, occupied by Toklas, Siuger
mann & Co.'s gigantic wholesale dry
goods emporium; the Union block, Parin
building, San Francisco clothing house,
Star block, Arcade building, and Lesler
block on Central square. All the tele
graph offices were in the block last
named. It was generally supposed the
entire water front would go, and it was
hoped, if such was inevitable, these
buildings could be saved. The Safe
Deposit company also had a building in
this block. Explosions of giant powder
were fruitless to prevent the spread of
the couflarration. Onward the fire
went, crackling, roaring, aud almost
shrieking. A three-story building in
the rear of the Toklas, Singerniann k
Co. establishment, which was Welton fc,
Co.'s sail factory, was an easy prey to
the terrible heat and cinders from the
Commercial milland lumber yards. The
fire soon communicated to ioklas, Sin
german k Co. 'a establishment, but the
water was giving out and the streams
from the several hose reached 011I3- to
the second story.
The Tacoma fire department came
over, but both department combined
were useless. All that could be done
when the bnildiugs succumbed and the
water gave ont completely was to try to
save property and life. People fled to
the hills to the eost, and horses dashed
up the highlands with promiscuous loads
of everything in every available vehicle.
The fire made owful progress when it
crossed Yesler street. Down on the
water front quarter, and extending to
Fourth street, the buildings were most
ly one or two stories and frame. The
entire water front, including all tho
wharves and docks, coal bunkers and
railroad tracks, wholesale quarters, and
everything south of Union street and
west of Second, and reaching around to
the gas works" and above Fourth street
on Jackson, Is completely burned.
To L'ive a list .of everything burned
would be lo produce most of the Seattle
directory. It is estimated that the total
loss to tii citv it) liuildiiiL's alone iu ens.
I ily $1, 000,000, and personal li will
I probably reach $20,000,000. Whether
tliere is much loss of life cannot yet be
ascertained. The city is guarded bv
militia. When Toklss, Hingeramnu k
Co.'s building fell almut thirty iople
were near it a-id nianr of the were

E. P. Cliappin, of Washington, who
buili the Jantier steel ork and until
January, 1888, was general superintend
ent ol the Cambria iron works at Johns
town, said Inst evening that the loss uns
tained in round number would reach
30,000,000. Said he: "I doubt if
twenty years will enable the valley to
recover from the awful shock, which is
almost too horrible to realize."
1'ostiruuiter Baunian, of Johnstown,
who knows everybody in it and is a
stockholder in a large number of manu
factories stid mercantile concerns in the
valley, said: "1 think 820.O0O.OO0 will
be found a very low estimate, of Johns
town's financial loss. 1 am a trustee for
the largest estate in Johnston and know
what 1 am talkiug when 1 make this
estimate."
The work of recovering the (lead goes
on with undiminished vigor, aud as the
workmen become accustomed to their
ghastly finds and the horrors of the
scene become comnu npl ice, they ap
ply themselves mure diligently to their
duty and labor with a system that pro
duces rapid results.
The Altoona delegation lias been one
of the busiest and most useful on the
ground. They took charge, of the two
lending hospitals and ran them until
this morning, when they were relieved
by the Philadelphia branch of the lted
Cross society under Clara Barton. They
have also been in charge of the wreck
age above the bridge.
RELIEF MEASrBEB.
The relief committee is to be made
national in its scope. Action to that
effect was taken at a meeting of the
finance committee of the local relief or

was proposed by parties high in author

sanction of the finance committee bv
the following clauses in this afternoon's
resolutions:
The survivors of the flood are now
and must be for some time wholly
