Tlio handsome brick block at Pres
cott avenue Hml Vine street, the prop
erty of Samuel Stipp, wus completely
ruined by fire last evening be tv.'eu the
hours of 7 aud 10. Tue hone mold fur
niture of Mr. Slipp und also that of his
tenMll was alio damaged by the
tl inm and water.
Ao alarm was soumlud from box 19
at Webster avenue and Mulberry
t rent at 7 15 o'clock, aud the lteliei,
''rystal and Pbinix companies were
soon Hi the Los, tut had considerable
diillcul: . in locating the fire. At lust
it was uncovered aud a streaui aoon
tamed upon the burning building,
llicre whs only, one hydrant uar the
building, nod that was so far away
thHt th-j Imse of the three companies
had to he spliced.
This on stream was not very fT:c
live, and itithouKli the firemen worked
luird, it wns aftvr 10 o'clock before the
flrtlWI were completely subdued.
The !! stnrteil iu the apurtmeuU oc
i enpie l tiy Frank W. Miller aud family.
Its origin was in a itovepipo hole on
the second floor, and as Mr. arid Mrs
MUlel were not at home, the flames
usined considerable headway before
; they were discovered.
Mr. Stipp piaott his loss nn the Imil.i
Ina at $0,000, and on hi furniture ut
640 till loss on the buildiiiK is oom
plettly covered by tnturaiic, and he
' carries aoout on hie furniture.
OOOVPAMtl OA' THK HnLSK.
Tht other families in the house, John
Mik wriht. Frank VV. Miller and
Otorgo May, lost their f urniture. either
ty llams, water or theft. Thuir lueses
will probably amount to ., eaoh
None of thes tnutilte.i carry a cent of
insurance. The Hgrvgate loss will
amount to about 17,000
Mr. nnd Mrs. Miller, in whose bouse
the tire started, were rway from homo
aud did not know anything about the
fire. As a TkikUNK reporter was on
his way from tin lire he was lOOOtted
by a gentleman, two ladies anil a little
girl. They aRked where the tire WM,
and when informed tint it was M:
Siipp's building, one of the ladle said:
"Why. that Is mr lion'."
She was Mrs. Miller, and stated that
the structure had nearly beeu on fire
twice before.
The firemen would have undoubtedly
saved the building if they uould buve
had the necessary conveniences with
which to do their work. The nearest
hydrkttt was a couple of blocks nway
aud the mod in the streets waseo solt
that they would sink to their shoe topi
at every step.
In fact the mud w to bad that the
driver of the Crystal wattou refuted to
drive up to the fire kii I in ike his one
horse pull 3,40u pounds there. He

We feel that Sime explanation l due to the
taxpayers lor tho extraordinary expend dure
for Improvements and repairs uoled in this
report. The main expenditure Is for a build
lug fur sane men, the need for which has Aieeii
felt many years. The building for sane males
used up to this time was the original frame
almshouse, wnlcb was Insufficient for the o
, oinmodatlon of sll tee male Inmntes. and the
overflow was nccommoilntod in the basement
- f the Inssne building, the iinssnltary condl
tioii of whleh was a constant MuMOtrl com
ulaint. With the enns'-nt of the state boird
of charities, which approved of the plans, wo
contracted for the erection tl it large fire
proof building, whl h is now approaching
completion and which will b Stnpfo for tho
purposes for which it Is Intended fur many
year to com", him m - cue allowance ror sue
im lease of the population of thedlstrlct.
Recreation in the o am a r Is necessary- fo
the physnal hia'th and beneficial to the
m-uital couditl ii of the Imsii. The feuce
ii bout tho rocrcatnln gnmnds. built kbOttt t n
years sgo. hid l online so ins -cure t at it was
unsafe to allow the Insane in it Desiring to
m iko the work sectiro and permanent, we
have enclojeJ the grounds with a bri.k wi.l.
light feet high, with ft bri k Wall In the cen
tre dividing it into two yards for the srpara
tioii of the sexee. A looted walk 1 litis about
the inside of the cuter alis. u pavilion h s
