A iitigh ucrtlieasi wind coon et th tt h(i!o south half of lhe hi;:iin in flatn?s. - The Ore engine in lived too late to Ixs of much service. The fire upread so rapidly that there wa hut tiino to 6ave the five prisoner? confined in jail iu the basement of the' build ing, three of whom were" carried ont half suffocated. Mr. Burnett, ono of Mr. Flem ing's asHftanti', saved himself by jumping fronj tlio ' second story window. He is badly bruised, though apparently not seriously. The tire started, from appearances, in tbe southeastern part of the buildimr in the first story and spread with inconceivable rapidity. The building, which is partly stone and partly brick, is a total loss. It was insured for $25,000, though costing $55,000. The superior court and probate court records were totally destroyed.' The audit ors and treasurers' records are un certain as yet, being in the vaults, which are supposed to be fire proof. Judge Bloomfield left his library, valued at $2600. The loss to the county is at least $100,000. The origin of the fire is as yet un known. Aided by the high wind the building was a total loss within an iiour alter tne alarm was sounded. A KKIfiN OK TEKKOit. A Srrit'S of Dcsti uctlve Kxplosions A ievolutlon Thioatenetl. Nkw Yukk, J'eti. 25. A speci.il from Havana kivs: An attempt was made to blow up a cigar fac tory last night with a dynamite bomb, which was exploded clo.-c to the walla of ti e main building. The adjacent house were had.y wrecked, but the factory was not seriously damaged. Hardly had the (leople recovered from their fright when a tremendous expk sioii took place this morning in the Batabana railway station on the Plaza de Sarmas. The iowder u.-ed was terribly effectiye. The station was totally destroyed Traflic was ait:ve at the time and the building was thronged witii employers and passengers. Thirty iiijuictl havo been takeu from the rums, home of whom may die; others are missing. On top of tK.i disaster news, comes from Cardinasthat the ware houses of Henri lzuricta 1 ave been destroved by fire. The losses are estimated a, $200,000. There is great excitement and alaim in Havana over the events coming at a time when the govern ment is without a head. The authorities are paralyzed. Since the stronghold of Captain General halamanca has been with drawn, the brigands are increasing in number and audacity. They are swarming in the country around Puerto .Principer. They have seized two wealthy men ol that city and carried them off to the mountains, where they hold; them for a ransom. Similar cases have occurred in other parts of the island. The victims having no means of succor from the local authorities yield to the demands of tne robbers. THE WALNUT GROVE DAM. Tho Worst Fears aro Mor Than Realised. Pbescott. Arizona, Feb. 25. The worst fears: of .the Walnut Grove dam are thore than realized, Ihoutrh the narticUiars come in flowly and arerfraagre.'.

One man was rescueu ron me top oi a iree. The prospector" state that not een a remraot of the dam exists. Tho immense boJy o: water, one and a half miles square and sixty feet deep, was emptied in an hour. They had talked with many persons from the binaller oni fed mills below, wiio ea d that up to Saturday evening 25 bodies had tieen lecovefed, but could give no additional names. The surviv ors ere in the greatest destitution, having neither provisions or cloth ing. Grain sacks were used in pia. e of clothing. A camd of voikmen engaged in building a flume has not been heard from at all and it is believed all were drowned. No news haa been re ceived here from Wickenberg or from the other settlements below the dam. More definite particu lars are looked for now .every minute. . A Gale In the Sierras.

The coroner's jury in the case of Mrs. Scott, who wus murdered one week ago last Sunday, rendered a verdict this evening that the deceased died from two gunshot wounds fired by Win.

He had also torn leaves from her account bonk, where she had written a few lines complaining ot her hard lot since marrying Scott. Scott was arrest ed at once, and loaned in jail. For A Statue To James Madison. Wasiiingtos, Feb. 24. No ob jectiro was raised in the Senate to the consideration and passage of Senator Heat's bill "for tbe erection of a statue and monument to James Madison''; and tbe Joint Ccmmit'ee oo the Library, if the bill gets through tbe house, will soon have on its hands the " difficult tr.sk of huntiDg out a proper site for tbe proposed memorial in a city fast filling tip with a.l sorts of public monuments. So great i tbe pre s wore already for good places for bronze statesmen, soldiers, sailors and heroes generally, atoot or on horseback, that tbe Senate ha9 no under consideration a bill for the removal of the 6o called Naval or Peace Monument from the Capitol grounds, to make room for a worthier substitute, in the way of a lrrnze statue of Christopher Col umbus. Tbe Peace Monument, aoout the irredeemable UDguin.iness of which there is, by the way, no dispute, ia to be exiled, according to this scheme, to a plot of ground at the lar northwest corner of the city, beyond Dupont Circle; and Coiumbu is to have the choice nnrt commanding oi now occup'ed ov it nl the heed of Peonsylvnois-ave. The Lill to honor Jaincs Madison with !. monument does not provide expr iss'y for a new "deal" in statues tuc it will surprise no one if some other less favored stMtvnn.n, cow pleasantly situated, will be ousted in time fnr the benefit of the fourth President. The Joint Committee is to have $40,000 to spend on the "monument and statue." Allotment Of Indian Lands. Washington, Feb. 24.- The I'issiden: has transmitted to the Senate n report from the Commis sioner of Indinn Affairs, enclosing a dratt of a bill to amend the first -edionof the act pro7idine for the allotment of lands in severalty to ludiuns. The CommissioDer. in I bis report, says that in August last a special agent held a council with the Sacaud Fox Indians ot Kansns Hnd Nebraska for the pornose of obtaining their consent to the pro Tisioni of the Act of 1885, which provides for tho allotment of their lands in severalty. The Indians nnaoimously refused to accept the the provisions of tbe act. 1 ne Quipaw Indians have also declined to tako their allotments. An agree meat, tbe report continues, bas re cently been negotiated with tbe Missetoti and Wahpetoo Indians of the Lake Traverse reservation in Dakota for the sale of their surplus hinds, upon condition that tbe allot ment shall first be equalized so as to give each Indian 160 acres. Tbe commissioner thinks that the Act of February, 187, should be amended so as to cive all the mem bers of a tribe equal quantities of land. The bill, as amepded by tne committee, fixes the amount ot (and to be alio ted to each Indiap, where the quantity of land in the reserva tion is sufficient, at 160 acres, and also provides for the equalization of allotments already m3de in whole or in part where there is sufficient land. A Small Swindle. Cbico Chrcnicte, We have the best authority for saying "salt is good." but when a person pays two bits for a little CHpsule filled with common chloride of sodium it is too good a joke. Can anybody bear witness that any oje io Chico has invested that amount for a capsule filled with salt? There was a fellow in (own yesterday, visitiog from bouse to house, supplying families with the above-named article and assuring the good housewives tbat if it was placed io a lamp the light wruld be so improved as to rival the best gas almost equal to tbe illuminat ing power of electricity itself. It is commonly reported tbe agent for the great salt capsule ' illuminator made many sales in' tswn." It is hardly to be - expected, however, that an 7 of those who purchase will to-day own up to it. Ask your neighbors if tbey invested. A Good InTestment. Twentv-four feet on First street, in the best block in Albany, for sale af a bargain. The projierty will double in value in two years.

You are afraid to fight me and you know it way down in your heart. I'd be ashamed to show my face if I were you after all the roasting you have bad from the papers and people."
