A Timely AppUeiesti of Water Prebwest aD.asters Coamfagadem.

At about twenty minutes past ighlbo'clock 16t night the rapid dischargeof firearms gave the unwelcome slgnalof a fIr and the crowd that quloklyilled the treet wasee directed by thebrirbt light to the violnity of the Mae.queen house. At first the word waspased from mouth to mouth that thescene of disaster was that popular boetelry, but it was quickly asoertained tobe a falee rumor and the blese waslocated In the dwelling house nearlyopposite the Maequeen and ocoupiedby MIs Connie Hoffman. Owing tothe fact that Miss Hoffman was not athome at the tame sad the bouse a.tIrely deserted, t was Impossible to ascertain tbhorllgt of the fire. When

first noticed the flames were brasklnuthrough one of the front windows ofthe house and the wbole interior wasablas .and in no lonredibly bshortspace of time the whole house insideand outside wee wrapped in fames,and no attempt at saving any of thecontents was posslbie. Several hun-dred spectators were qulokly on the

ground, but ln the absence of even therudeet means of fighting the fre theyhad to remain spectators until Messrs.

Dallahan and Bill, of the Maoqueea,sad the depot fore, emblned their

sop plies of ho), masking sbout W8feet, whibeb was quikly atteebed totihe steam pump at the Macquesn andat 8:40 a water supply was savailable.At first owing to the steam being low,the force re not great, and the waterwas only available for wetting downthe pile of bay and manur adjacesotto the adjoinnlag barn which bhad bythat time commeneed to give indlcaions oft gnition. Meanwhile the

building immedaltely adjoining theHomnan residence and known as the"Ist Chioes" saloon, was blusingmerrily on the •o Wide and a tbis wasthe irt of a compect row of famoes itbegan to look as If the fre wae to beillespreed. By this time, however,steam bhd run up la the Maqueenshouse boilers and the pump wrthrowing a gnod stream of water.This am quickly directed oo tsh"Last Chases" bullding and in leathan ten mnutes the Are was undercontrol, the buildig where It origin-ated having by this time IMilen in andbeesme harmless as a means of oommualoatlog fre to say of the ar-rounding ouhboune or buildings.O•esplieots la their *efms to fightthe Are were Larry Kendall, W. K.Smith, J. C. Callahan, Harry Bill, F.U. Judd, Pron. aohd ad many bthers

bhose nm ee redid not learn, lcludiuna oolored oow boy whoe sturdy effortswere productive of much good. The*Last (Cbace" bullding was unoocu-pled but used u a storage room for asaloon oulft owned by Al Kennedy.Tbls property wa removed withoutdamage other than that reeived inhandling, but the building itelf to be-yond the power of repair, though stillstanding. The bouse occupied oyMis Hoffman wo owned by Lieut.Wainwright, of the First navalry, *dwar lsuree for $50. Min Hofdlmlost everything she posen ed in theway of furniture, jewelry and wearlngapparel, the value of which in the g-regate is estimated by sooeervptive

judges to be between $4 000 and 5,000,on which she had an Insurasee of$2,450. Levi 81mpson, who ownedthe building next adjoiing the "LastCbance," whlch was damaged to somdegree, was lared for $800.

from every mouth durant the timewhen it looked as if nothing could bedone to arrest the progress of the con-fiagration and b., ' nu hoae wasbrought into req..: .-. i. Even thefact of being able to conquer as it wasconquered was a happy acoident, at-tributole solely to the fire being Isloe. proximity to the Macqueenbouse, for in no othebr ;,oality wouldthis adventitious aid be practicable.Elsewhere in the city we are utterlypowerless and will so remain as longs a penny wise and pound foolishpolicy controls our property owners.Wholly at the mercy of this devastat-ing element that has heretofore sparedour more costly and pretentious edl-foes, we shall wake up some morningto find some one of our handsomebrick blocks in ruins with a lose en-talled on the owner and occupantsthat would have paid their petty pro-portion of the coest of a competentwater system for all time. There aresome public charges t i be classedas legitimate expon every tax-payer, and first and I net amongthebe is the maintenanoe of an adequate water system. Until we havethis Miles City will always be a one-horse town, and our neighbors whoare enterprising enough to move to-ward seourity in this matter will reapbenefite that justly belong to us. Thevery humillating spectacle of severalhundred able-bodied men looklng onat the fire last night and not beingable to raise a finger to sucessfullyoontest its advance, may awaken a de.sire for some means of fire proteetionin the future. We hope so, but wedoubt It.
