plotoly gutted nnd caused tlio lofcu of
tho lives of 17 women inmates.
The cottago had stone and granlto
walls with wooden intorlors, and in
tended for laundiy purpo&cs. Owing
to tho crowded condition of tho main
building, 40 of tho female patients woro
placed hero with tho laundry in tho
basement. Tho flro originated in tho
diyroom of tho laundry. Here thoro
was n coil of steam pipes, aud tho
theory is that either lino particles simi
lar to lint settled on tho pipes mid Ig
nited, or that clotlida winch woro
thickly bung close by dropped on to
tho pipes and woro flred.
Tho lighting ol tho flro was greatly
hindored by tho loss of power. Tho
only source of wator was an artesian
well, 400 feet distant, tho pipes for
pumping which ran through tho cot
tage. The intonso heat Boon causoJ
tho pipes to burst, thus leaviug tho flro
men without power, and dependent en
tirely upon the diroot prensuiofroin tho
tank. 13ut two streams of water could
bo thrown on tho building, and those
did but littlo good.
Fifty-two persons wero in tbo build
ing, 40 patients nnd 13 attendants.
Tho structure was threo stories and an
attio high, nnd had two entrances.
Thoro was ono stftirway from the sec
ond and third floors, which led into
tho main hall, thus giving but ono
egress for thoso a novo tho fust floor.
Patients and attendants fled with ter
ror, great confusion resulting, especially
among thoso on tho uppor floors.
Many heartrending scenes wero enacted
ns tho inmates, clad only in their night
clothes and barefooted, rushed down
tho narrow flight of stairs, and finally
out into tho snow. Tho temperature
was 23 degrees below zoro, and further
loss of life from frcozing was prevented
nlono by prompt work of the attend
ants from tbo main buildings. Tho at
tendants escaped, as did tbo others,
who woio saved, with nono of thoir
personal effects, many losing all thoy
possessed. Portions of chaired re
mains can bo seen in tlio debris at the
bottom of the baeeraont. The four

claims undor title of mi application (or
a homestead filing, mido in June,
1884, but which was rejected by the
local land offlco. Tho main Question
involved in tho contest for possession
of this valuable properety hinges upon

filing of maps of definite location.
