NORFOLK WA8 THREATENED DY
FLAMES LAST NIGHT.
FIREMEN'S WONDERFUL WORK
FIRE IN HEART OF LUMBER YARD
CHECKED AND QUENCHED.
HOTEL QUESTS DRESS QUICKLY
Fearing That the Fire Would Leap
Norfolk Avenue In the Pacific Block ,
the Pacific Guests Were Quietly No
tified A Heroic Battle.
I From Saturday's Dally. ]
Only by the most consistent nnd
headiest kind of flro fighting , Norfolk
was saved last night from the most
. disastrous flro In Its history. A wild
I gale swept out of the north and
whipped the fire , which began In n
shed In the rear of the Chicago Lum
ber company's yard , into a furious
blaze that threatened to destroy the
lumber yard nnd the buildings on the
corner of Fifth nnd Norfolk avenue ,
then Jump the street and carry away
the Pacific block nnd the Queen City
hotel. The fire department cut Into
Uio face of the flames and the wind
with all the water they could bring to
boar upon It and , fighting It from both
sides , cut off the flames In the center
of n lumber shed piled high with dried
lumber. It was only this persistent
fight in a swirl of driving smoke and
sparks and flames that saved the cor
ner nnd perhaps the buildings across
the street.
Fire Discovered.
The flro was discovered shortly be
fore 11 o'clock by C. P. Parish , who
was on his way home. Ho noticed
smoke coming from behind the build
ings on the corner but supposed it was
from an engine on the tracks beyond.
As he turned the corner of the Pacific
hotel he noticed a small flickering of
light and smelled the smoke of burnIng -
Ing wood. He Immediately turned In
the alarm and the hose carts were
hurried to the scene of the flro.
Magnificent Fire Fighting.
The two-story building , in which the
flro started , was wrapped in a mass
of flames when the hose carts reached
the blaze. The north gale beat the
flames against the adjoining shed
piled high with dried lumber and car
ried great masses of glimmering , flar
ing sparks whirling through the air
and onto the roofs of the buildings In
its path. It seemed like a hopeless
task for the firemen as the scorched
end of the lumber shod was blazing
A in places and the wind swept great
' ' floods of llamo against it every in
stant. Streams of water were carried
in the face of the blinding smoke and
sparks to bear upon the advancing
flames. It scorned a hopeless task to
stop but they fought stubbornly
against it as it advanced by leaps and
ate great holes into the north end of
the lumber pile. Moro hose was
brought and the flglit was taken up
from both sides and from the rear.
A switch engine puffed up the track
to take away a string of cars from
the track behind the flro and stayed
to push them further In to make a
windbreak for the flames. It was a
fire where the little things counted
and that windbreak stopped the furi
ous rush of the flames. Then the
stre.uns of water began to toll and a
third of the way down the shed the
flames were stopped and slowly turned
back toward the heart of the flames.
In the warehouse , where the fire start
ed , there was no stopping it. The
upper floor was filled with mill-work
and seasoned hardwood flooring. The
fire once started in that could not bo
extinguished. So the firemen held the
'
fire back from in front and slowly
fought it down behind until early into
the morning when there was nothing
left but a smoking mass of charred
ruins.
Hotel Guests Get Out.
At the Pacific hotel there was In
tense excitement for a moment when
the alarm was first turned In and then
everyone made hurried preparations
to leave the hotel In case the flro
should carry the corner and leap the
street. Before a dozen taps of the
alarm had been sounded a bell boy
was passing down the halls to nwak-
, en each guest. They were all told of
the Hre , that there was no danger butte
to get up nnd dress ready for any
emergency. Several women in their
excitement threw wraps over their
night robes and hurried to the lobby.
When they were assured of tholr pres
ent safety they went back to tholr
rooms and dressed in order. Within
fifteen minutes everyone was up and
dressed and the sidewalk was lined
\ & with trunks nnd grips ready to carry
away If the fire communicated to the
hotel.
All along the sidewalks on Fifth
street and Norfolk avenue , where
there was any possibility of the flro
reaching to , the sidewalks were plied
with trunks , grips , household furnish
ings nnd clothing ready to carry away
If the flre spread further. Few had
I. heard the alarm but the telephone
[ | first brought those who had offices
and Interests in the path of the fire ,
I then others until a largo crowd stood
9 nnd gazed at the flre until the cold and
- the wind drove thorn homo , when the
/ \ \ danger was once passed. In every
olllco niul store building there WHS a
light nnil preparations were tnatlo to
qnrry away everything that was of
vn1io | before the lire , reached to It.
Origin a Mystery.
Tlio origin of tlui lire In undlBCOv-
uriul. Its proximity to the Union Pa-
clilc tracks suggested Us starting from
a spark but the thin shale of lee that
covered everything last evening HCOIIIH
to preclude such an Idea and leave no
clue for discovering a reason for Its
iicglnnlng. The company Is unable testate
state the loss as there Is much charred
lumber and lumber damaged by smoke
and water must bo examined and as
sorted out before any definite Idea of
the loss can be secured. It will prob
ably bo between $2,000 and $3.000 , ful
ly covered by Insurance.
Firemen at Supper.
lloforo the men loft the lire Manager
N. H. DolHon of the Chicago Lumber
company and II. 0. Sattler took the
llromon to n restaurant and gave them
supper. This Is the first time that
imythlng of the kind has over been
ilono In Norfolk and the men , who
were soaked through with water and
chilled by the cold , went home warm
er and better for It. In the morning
II. C. Sattler gave the department $ fiO
'or their efforts.
All of the department went homo at
! ! o'clock with the exception of Chief
McCune and eight or ten of the men ,
who stayed to llnlsh the work. Short
ly after that the lire broke out anew
but the llames were quickly put out
and by 5 o'clock there was no vestige
> f lire left.
Hose Cart Broke.
The mombcrs of the Mast hose com
pany were forced to carry their hose
to the fire in their hands as the left
wheel of the cart was broken off as
the cart was leaving the house. The
axle of the cart had boon In a weak
ened condition for a long time and
snapped when the cart struck the side
walk. The hose was immediately un
reeled and , with it In their bands ,
they rushed up Norfolk avenue to the
lire.
Man Run Over.
An unknown man was run over by
Queen City hosecart on the sidewalk
in front of Thicnis' meat market when
they wore on the ( Ire. Later when at
tempts were made to find out who he
was It was impossible to find any trace
of the man , so It is presumed that he
was not severely Injured.
RAILWAY BOYSJELP COMRADE
Fireman Anderson , III and Short of
Funds , Is Taken Care of Here.
A pretty case of kindly charity
among tbo railroad boys of Norfolk
lias come to light. J. J. Anderson , a
locomotive llremnn with headquarters
here , was taken seriously ill with ty
phoid fever and developed inter symp
toms of pneumonia. Ho had , at the
lime he laid off , , a check for $81 , and
the check , naturally , was soon gone.
Hut Fireman Anderson did not suffer -
for from tills .account. Not while the
railroad boys of Norfolk had money in
their pockets. They took up a sub
scription among themselves to help
out Anderson , and for four weeks he
was tenderly cared for , with the best
of everything In the way of attention ,
nursing , medicine and delicacies to
cat.
While the railroad boys themselves
will not talk about the case or tell
how much they took up for Anderson ,
because they believe in guarding the
matter -charity as sacred , yet it is
known that they took up enough
among themselves to pay more than
$30 each week for a month toward
Anderson's care. The railway olll-
cials here cheerfully contributed their
share.
A few days ago Anderson was taken
back to his homo in Illinois and re
ports today indicate that ho is rapidly
improving in condition.
WISNER FIRE ALARM BELLS.
Every Fireman In the Town Has a Bell
That Starts Ringing With Button.
The city authorities of Wisner have
just installed an electric call bell sys
tem for their firemen in case of fire.
A bell is placed In the home of every
fireman and the wires are run Into
the telephone exchange , where they
can bo set ringing by a single touch
of a button. At times such as last
night It is difficult to get out all the
lire department as the sound of the
alarm does not carry to every house.
But the electric bell does reach every
home and rings until it is turned off
by the fireman.

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH WAO
CROWDED LAST NIQHT.
MR. OLMSTEAD CALM SPEAKER
The Series of Four Weeks' Evangelist
ic Meetings Began Under Propitious
Circumstances In the Congregational
Church Last Night.
[ From Momlny'fl Daily. }
The four weeks' series of union
evangelistic meetings to bo held by
the Congregational nnd Methodist
churches of the city , began under pro
pitious circumstances last night. The
Congregational church was crowded
to the doors and oxtrn chnlru had to
tie brought In from outside to accom
modate the audience.
S. II. Jackson has a sweet , well mod
ulated tenor voice nnd In n most ex
cellent leader of a chorus. Ills solo ,
"Ship Ahoy , " was very well received.
Mr. Olmste'ad took for bin text , "To
bo Carnally Minded Is Death. " Ho
said In part :
"Professor Herbert Spencer's defi
nition of death was , 'The ceasing of
correspondence between the Inner
man and outward life , or failure to ad
just one's self to his environment. '
The death referred to by Paul in this
text probably did not mean future ex
istence as most people bcllove , but
lack of proper adjustment to spiritual
and higher things of life. "
Mr. Olmstead Is devoid of the ncu-
satlonal methods of the peripatetic
evangelist. Ho IH clear , logical In
preaching and uses the conversational
.one of voice. If last night's meeting
can bo token as an example of what
s to follow , a good series of meetings
vltli splendid results Is to bo expect
ed.
Tuesday afternoon nt 3 o'clock the
afternoon meetings will begin In the
Sunday school room of the Congrega
tional church.
Wednesday afternoon , Immediately
nfter school , Mr. Jackson wants to
moot all school children between the
igos of 9 nnd 15 , to form a "sunbeam"

CASE ONE SIDED.
Petersburg Index Snys Shelbly Will
Never Get His $6,000.
Petersburg Index : W. N. Huso of
Tbo Norfolk Dally News , ( toorgo I ) .
Nelson of the Harlington Herald , and
Franklin Fnloa , ox-chairman of the
central commltoo for McCarthy's llrHt
congressional campaign , are the de
fendants In a libel suit brought by T.
S. Sholbly of Ponca.
During McCarthy's first campaign
defamatory charges wore circulated
against him and It Rooms The News ,
on the eve before ejection , published
a circular letter which came directly
from Iho headquarters of McCarthy's
liongrcHHlonnl commit too and which
said unkind things about Sholbly. The
letter was vouched for by the congres
sional commltoo who desired to refute
the charges made ngalnnt McCarthy.
About a year later the man from Pen
ca started suit against The News for
$0,000 , and Judge Boyd gnvo a deci
sion for the defendant , and dismissed
the case. Shelbly carried the case to
the supreme court which reversed the
decision on a technicality. The News
is now made the defendant once more
In the same case.
The case has stirred up no little In
terest in northeast Nebraska news
paper circles and proceodlngs will bo
watched with interest. However , the
evidence turned in at the former trial
was so one-sided' that wo fear Shelbly
will never get sight of that $0,000 ho
Is striving for so earnestly.
