The Cottage Occupied by the Salvation Army Destroyed by Fire. The flro engines were railed out about 6 o'clock last evening to a fire at 121 Bth atheet, a cottae occupied by the Salvation Army staff, and owned by W. W. Parker. Before the flrsti engine ar. rived tho whole upper story of . the buifdlng was in flames, and the lower rooms where the Army people lived, were filled with smoke, so dense that It was almost Impossible to move about in them. There was no wind blowing at tho time, and the place where the flro ftat-tcHl being very tight, the flames confined themselves to the Inside of the building, which was completely eaten out In tho upper story, and the roof burned away before the fire-laddles got the upper hand, which they did in short order, there being four streams on the fire.. All the furniture, with the exception of one bedstead; was saved, also all the clothing belonging to the -Wx-uiMints. The origin of the fire is not known, but is supposed to have been tarted by some children who were play ing In the empty rooms overhead. Lieut. Quant states that the first intimation she had of the blaze, whs while they were at supper, a man came rushing in, crying fire, and a moment later, flames bursted through the celling over head. Considering the short time they had before tho fire drove them out of the house altogether. It Is remarkable, the large number of things that were moved ut. The damage to the building Is covered by Insurance.
