Just before some one discov ered the big warehouse and barn of H: Bryant and John Callahan on fire, and an alarm was turned in at the nearest box. On account of the distance it was a long time before the engine and hose cart were en hand, when a stream was secured from Pennywinkle and played on the burning relics of the barn, which contained some hay and alfalfa. When the fire started there were several horses belonging to Mr. Callahan, a horse dealer, on his side of the big structure, which were gotten out. Mr. Callahan was away from home. Mr. Tom H. Rhodes lives directly opposite the barn, and the bucket brigade had a fierce time of it saving the house, which was badly scorched, on fire at times in dozens of places. Every article m the house was taken out. as it is it was badly damaged. The old chemical engine, the city has been paying $24 a year to have housed, was taken out Dut aid no gooa, rustea and out of condition. $500 insurance in the McMinnville Company is carried on Mr. Rhodes timioa nna nn Iha f nrnitilrp. nnrl none on the barn. i The fire started from some children playing hide and seek, while doing so using a match, which set tire to the hay, spreading too fast for them to stop it. besides considerate Daiea nay mere was about twenty thousand feet of dressed lumber in the Bryant side and a new wagon m the Callahan part.

WANTED A SPRINKLER. The streets continue dirtier than ever, and it is up to the city council to see that something is done to settle the question and the dust. The Democrat's figures of the amount wanted by the water company for water, currently reported on the streets, $450, were three times too large. The exact amount Manager vVelch says, is only $150, decidedly some difference. Business men jhould be willing to give liberally for street sprinkling, some thing absolutely necessary for the pro tection of their goods, and residence owners need it. Sixteen weeks is the average length of time paid for, and it should be done willingly and promptly without any growling. Because it is not is probably the reason the sprinkler is not out. The city should do its share for the squares, paying a liberal price. There should be an arrangement for the sprinkling of the whole city.

The street sprinkling question was settled temporarily this forenoon by a neat shower, laying the dust some. W. M. Kidder, owner of the sprinkler, who was in the city, leaving his busy furm to come to town, gave his version of the situation. He says the pii.:e first asked was 6 cents a tank, that forty to sixty tanks a day are used, and that it would figure up approximately $450 for the season, as given by the Democrat, but that since then the company has agreed to sell the water for $150 flat for the season; but he has lost several weeks sprinkling, the city only wanst to pay about half price, end there are so many who do not want to pay he has decided to not run the sprinkler unless definite arrangements are made of a satisfactory character. If arrangements are made it should be on a plan providing for a uniform price for the same space, so all will be treated alike, with a teasonable sched ule for business and residence districts, separate.
