This morning an adjnstor went to the barn burned last night , which was the properly of Mr. Hreed. and upon which was Insurance to the ex tent of $ 'JOO. It Is the opinion of a number of Norfolk Insurance men that the tires are being sot by a firebug either for .the purpose of stirring up excitement that stealing and plunderIng - Ing may he.done , or for the purpose of getting revenge. A trio of ciooks In town last week- are suspected by some. On Thursday night a watch thief was arrested In the Peerless res taurant and jailed. After midnight the building burned. That watch thief had two pals. Four tires two nights later and another last nlghl show un usual aetlvlly and unusual cause In the o tiros.

There have been few opportu nities where all could meet In this manner and It Is expected that It will be found so pleasant that social meetings of the business people and property owners will hereafter be the usual tiling , rather than the excep tion , in Norfolk i While pla > lng with a nunfher of lit tle companions last night.

Norfolk has been putting forth an unusual effort to clean up this spring and the men who gather up and haul away garbage and refuse are having a busy tlmo. Not only the private res idences , but the business houses are clearing away the accumulation of rubbish from back yards and alloys and the city Is preparing to enter the spring and summer season In a spirit of cleanliness such as has been sel dom shown. ' Yesterday was one of the big days for the young people of Christ and St. Paul Lutheran churches , It being pre liminary to the confirmation services next Sunday. At Christ church a class of thirty-five children were ex amined previous to their confirma tion next Sunday , and at St. Paul church a large class of parochial school pupils was tested on the re quirements of the church for confir mation. The services next Sunday , which Is Palm. Sunday , will bo quite elaborate and will lead to the lOastei services of the Sunday following. Saturday was ono of the most Hvel > days of the springtime for shoppers and merchants of Norfolk. There was an unusual number on hand from on I of town. They found time In the busy part of the spring season to talu a day off for shopping and they tooK it. Thi * rush work had boon got out of the way on the farm , and besides there were the eggs and butter to mar ket and the groceries and other pro ' vision1 * to bo purchased , all of whlcl I required attention , whether there was i tlmo or not. In addition to all this i Norfolk merchants wore offering sumo , unusually attractive bargains and the shoppers were out in force to pick them up. the town people helping to swell the crowds on the streets. It was n particularly line day to be out of doors , also , and everything seems to have combined to make U a great day for business. Not Gas But Gasoline. In the account of the fire at the Peerless restaurant yesterday , the statement was made that the fire prob ably originated from leaking gas. Manager Fulton of the Ons company says that city gas was cut of the res- says that city gas was cut off the res- lone burner had boon substituted , so city gas could not bo'at fault.

The Carlisle Indians Inaugurated their baseball season today , lining up against the Mercershurg academy team on the homo diamond. The Indians have arranged a promising schedule for this season. Among others games will ho played with the University of Pennsylvania , Lafayette , Holy Cross and Dickinson. MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUND TWO OF THEM. LOOKS LIKE WORK OF FIRE BUG Four Fires and Threii Alarms Make a Pretty Strenuous Record for One Afternoon and Evening Damage Slight In Every Case. Three fire alarms and four fires vlthln seven hours makesthe , recorder or Saturday afternoon and evening. Jono of the fires was serious loss , mt the rapidity with which ono fol- owed another makes n person look veil to his Insurance policies. The first alarm was about 5 o'clock n the afternoon and came from Frank ) edernian's place on South Twelfth street. Here sonic children had built n bonfire In some straw piled against i fehed adjoining the barn. The fire lepartmonl responded promptly to the ilartn and before the flames had gained much headway they had been subdued. ' About 10 : in In the evening flames wore discovered rolling np from a > lnno box at the rear of the Sturgeon company's music store. The box was igalnst the high board fence and that ilso wan doing Its best to burn up. It was but the work of a few minutes for hose who quickly gathered to yank ho box away from the fence nnd the udlclous use of a llttlo water quickly Iticllcd the disturbance. The origin ) f this flro Is a mystery. The box mil boon filled with piano paper and nirncd freely. But a short distance 'rom the burning fence Is the wooden stairway leading to the upper story ) f the Schorreggc block , nnd If the lames had caught In this there might bo n" different story to tell. There was no wind at the time , and this fact helped very mtnerlally In putting out the flames. While this fire was In progress no one had time to turn In an alarm , hut after It was all over an alarm was sounded and the firemen had a run for nothing. The origin of Ibis fire Is a mystery. It might have Iteen caused by someone who walked ; o the back door of the Trocadero and threw a cigar stub over the fence Into the paper In the box , but It Is not probable. The circumstances sur rounding the affair rather point to the work of a fire bug , although there Is nothing to prove that theory. Barn Burns. The firemen had not much more than reached their homos when an other alarm was sounded. This was another mysterious fire In a barn on the place occupied hy Mr. Slumbaugh and owned by L. M. Gaylord. By the time the companies had reached the lire it had gained considerable head way and the barn was rendered unfit for use , although the men did such good work that the shell was saved. There was nothing In the barn at the time , but some hay In the loft. How the lire started cannot be accounted for. So far as known no ono had been near the place since early In the even ing and there seems to bo only two ways that It might have been started cither by some one who passed through the alloy and carelessly threw a cigar stub Into the rubbish or by some one intent upon witnessing the spectacular who deliberately applied a match. Barn fires do not ordinarily start In the middle of the night from natural causes. The loss Is from $ f > 0 to $75. While this fire was in progress an other had been discovered in the new house of C. V. Shaw on The Heights. Prof. Brake had started down town when ho heard the second alarm and as he passed the Shaw house saw flames Inside. Ho immediately aroused Contractor Ogdeu , and they succeeded In n > few minutes In having the flames under control. The kitch en floor was badly burned and some of the casings were charred. Portions of the floor had already begun to fall through Into the collar when the flames wore stopped. The house Is just nearing completion and during the afternoon workmen had been oilIng - Ing the floor , leaving the oil-saturated rags In the kitchen. It is probable the lire was caused by spontaneous com bustion. May be Firebug. Two of those ( Ires were of decidedly mysterious origin and the third can only be accounted for on the basis ol spontaneous combustion. It looks considerably ns though Norfolk has a firebug , who Is not really ambitious to destroy valuable property , but has an ambition to sec something burn. Should this be true , It would be well for him to work with utmost secrecy , because If discovered the citizens would see that ho Is as severely pun ished as the law will allow. Chief Kern was Inclined to the be lief that the fires were the work of an incendiary , and for the purpose of being ready for any other calls upon the firemen he detailed a num ber of men to remain np the rest of the night with him. In view of the suspicious circum stances , It behooves every property owner to exercise the utmost vigilance AS to his premises. No piles of rub bish should he allowed to accumulate anywhere near n building , ns they offer so much greater temptation thnn if the firebug has to gather kindling for his foul purposes. It Is not a had Idea , either , to connect up the lawn hose and leave It attached to the wa ter service , na n sorlous conflagration mUht often ho prevented with n very small stream of water applied in time. CIRCULAR TO ASSESSORS. State Board Meets and Issues In structions , Lincoln , April 11. The state board of equalization met yesterday nnd ngroed on a clrculnr of Instructions for all county assessors of the state. Nothing Is said In this about , recent court decisions bearing on credits as the hoard thinks this sort of informa tion should como moro properly fronl the nttorney general's office. Following Is the clrculnr : "It Is very important that nil class- cs of property bo listed nnd valued ns provided in section 12 , chapter 77 , nrtlclo 1 , compiled stntutes , , 1903. Section 113 provides that county as sessors shall require of deputy as sessors that the hssessmcnt of prop erty bo uniform throughout the coun ' ty , nnd that the property bo assessed f' ns directed by law , and to the end they shall bo nitthorl/cd to alter or chnngo any assessment made by any deputy assessor , so that the same shall conform to law. "Section 113 provides that county assessors shall , In the listing and as sessing of property , follow the rnlos and regulations provided by the law nnd the instruction formulated by the bUto board of equalization nnd ns- sossment , ns recited on personnl prop erty schedules. It nlso defines the action of the board In cases whore such provisions are not compiled with. "An amendment to the stntnto was adopted by the legislature of 1005 clothing the state hoard with power to equalize by classes ; while this pro vision allows the board moro latitude , It In no way relieves assessing offi cers from the duty imposed under sec-1 tlon 12. Certain classes of property nro resisting the tax levied on the grounds that nil property In the state was not valued uniformly as provided by the constitution nnd statutes. If the frfdoral court sustains this conten tion , county ofllcers who list , value and equalize property other thnn that of railroads , must naturally bear their portion of the criticism. It is ear nestly urged that all assessors adhere to section 113 so that it shall not he- come necessary for the state board to apply the penalty Imposed under section 115.
