Racket Ihnicli Hqus3 and Eotel Church, HoaB and Hotel Anything and Everything Furnituie store OPER A HOUSE BUB NED. Albany Visited by the Worst Fire for Many Years. About 5 o'clock this morning flames were discovered issuing from north of the rear of the opera house. Thev were seen from the depot when the freight ar rived so much start had they gotten, and the whistle of the engine was blown shrilly. It attracted attention down street, and W. B. Gilson, who lives near the fire bell, and who had arisen rushed to the tower and rang the bell. The re iponee was a prompt one. The whole end of the Opera house, Ludwig's tin shop, Beam's grocery store and the ad- joining warenouse ouuaings on ine auey, seemed to be in flames at once. Every thing was aa dry as tinder and burned fast, the fire spreading quickly and It looked as if the city was in it for a big conflagration . A stream or two from the hydrants soon began. to check the flames and both engines in a tew mo ments, which seemed much longer, had stteams playing on the buildings. Good work was then done and after an hours work only the charred remains of the several frame structures were left of Al bany's only opera house, of Beams gro cery store and the little warehouse sheds on toe alley were entirety destroyed, also Ludwig's tinsbop and tbe warehouse on the alley in which F. E. Allen & Co., had forty or fi- ty stoves and other things belonging to their business, stored. snd which were all destroyed except the stoves. Our citizens did splendid work in re moving goods and the entire neck of goods of O. A. Beam' was saved in good condition, nearly all of Mr. Gradwohl's stock of groceries and crockery in tbe corner store in the opera bouse were saved, though some) wete burned, he tnnks about $JUU worth, and Mr. Lud- wig s tinning and plumbing utensils were nearly all gotten out, E. R. Case, the barber and bii father retided above Lad wig and saved only a few thine. Mr. Case senior toeing even his false teeth. 1 he fare denartment altogether did et fieientwotk. The total loss is orobably about 10.000. The opera houte with' scenery was worth nearly $5,000 and tbe several adjoining buildings nearly as much more with the contests not saved. xne building in which Mr. Beam's store was located wa owntd by Mrs. Mady, the adjoining building on lh al ley by Mr. Gradwobt and the Lndwia- shop and warehouse in the rear bv W. Cl Tweedale. Me Gradwohl is the princi pal fctocsnoider in toe opera bouse prop- riy. 1 he fire undoubtedly started in the shed need for storing wood, located on the alley, perhaps on tbe outside of tbe hed, perhaps on the inside, those who first sa w it are not certain. Back of the shed was considerable coal oil stored nd when this exploded the flames st-read to all the adjoining buildings, burn ng the rear of Beam's, the opera nouse, ana tne Tweedale building ap parently at B-xut tbe same time and preading in each toward their front very rapidly. Tbe opera house was insured in eevir- 1 companies for $32,03. There was no insurance on tbe roods of Beam. 'Lud- wig and F. E. Alien A Co. NOT EH. There was cot enough water and t he cisterns pave out, or nearly so. The hydrants lacked power and the stream as not ot mncn service. Mr. Hocoe says a large number of .faucets are left running m thu ctoeeu, causing Uio tmck of power. Whatever tbe cause there should be a remedy. The firemen never worked betted. F. E. Allen & Co. will save most of their stoves, but lost a good deal of other things such as salt, etc. Their loss is probably $500. Arrangements should be made fur an other opera bouse. Albany is too big a place to be without a public buiIUsns any length of time. The cause oi tbe re will be long a matter of speculation, and there will be Dig difference of opinion. Was it in cendiary or accidental. This morniog.durincand after the fire. iheW, O.T. U. served to tbe firemen coffee, which was greatly appreciated. In its 4th of July writeup th DsxocaaT neglected to mention the fact that this organisation had a fine float in tbe par ade, a regular cold water affair. Stewart A Sox' lo by water rannins a the basement was lees than $100. Tbe Albany Bnilding Association. owners of the opera toose property, are already comtemplating tbe erection of a brick opera boose on the site of tbe old Die. It enould be deue. The fire denartment wish to thank the W C T U and City Restaurant for sub stantial favors this morning, which were greatly appreciated. Mr Gradwohl will locate his store in the place vacated by O'Brien, Mr Lud wig will go into the Louis corner and Mr Beam has not yet secured a place but de sires to remain near tbe same part of the city. The loss on No l'sengine Iioum was -io, and J. SI. Kalston and V. U. I5urk- hart's companies have already paid the same, old line style. Prof. W. L. Jackson has been elected rinciDal of tbe Taneent public school tor the ensuing year. Mrs. Jabkson was elected assistant. Herbert March, of the '98 V. ot O. class and winner of tbe Fsiling oration prize, has accepted a position as report er on tbe Oregonian, Portland, and will shortly enter upon bis new dudes Guard. , J.

He is now engsged in driving piles in front ot Fisher's flouring mills, above Corvallis, to ston the encroachments ol tbe Will amette river daring periods of high water. Mr. Tillotson lives st Albany, which is now in tbe midst of fields of waving grain and new mown bay. Port land telegram. Advice to Consumptives There are three great reme dies that every person with weak lungs, or with consump tion itself, should understand. These remedies will cure about every case in its fist stages; and many of those advanced. It- is bnlv the most advanced that are hopeless. Even ' these are . wonderfujly relieved and life itself greatly prolonged. What are, these .remedies ? Fresh air proper food and Scon's Emulsion of Cod-Liver Oil -with Hypo phosphites. Bes afraid of draughts but not tf fresh air. Eat nutritious food and drink plenty of milk. Do not forget that Scott's Emulsion is the oldest, the most thoroughly tested and the higheit en dorsed of all remedies for weak throats, weak lungs and consumption in all its stages. - m anil Si am All dnifffMtft. sco lTf BOWNE, Chcmuu, Ntw York.

Alter an absence ol twenty five years they found lime bsd wrought many changes. A one church build. ng now occupied the site of the old one, tbe former hav ing been dedicated only about a month ago. A stroll through tbe cemetery revealed many names once familiar to them, wboee owners were now sleeping la tbe silent city ol tbe dead. Two graves in particular attracted tbe notice of tbe writer, btandtng aide by side, were two plain marble slabs and on the larger wa. inscribed "Eld Joab Powell, died Jan 25, 1873, aged 73 years 6 months 9 days.' Below were tbe words "Blessed are the deed who die in the Lord." Above all is engraved on an open bible the words Holy Bible." ibe other stso tsad inscribed "Anns, wife of Eld Joab Powell, died May 31, 1872, aged 73 years 2 months 14 days'" Below were tbe words "lucre remain- etb a rest for the people ot God."
