When icemen went oat on duty, for the night they were given strict i structions that all attempts at noisy ctlebrating were to be promptly nipped in the bud.

Washington, July 2.—Representative Tilgon has about given up hope of getting his “forlorn hope medal” bill reported aut of the house committee during this session of congress.

TWO HOUSES ON FIHE IN HIGH STREET | Probably $4,000 Damage in Dwellings of Isaac Crumb and Mrs. Wilhelmina Grodotzke. In an_early morning fire on High street Wednesday two frame dwelling houses, No. 114, owned by Isaac Crumb, and No. 116, owned by Mrs. Wilhelmina Grodotzke, were badly damaged, the Crumb family also losing practically all their clothing and furniture, while most of t furniture from the Gro- dotzke house was saved. There is also a loss to the furniture of the family of Morris Connell, who lived in the upper part of the Crumb | house. This house is gutted inside and the roof is burned off, and the Gro- dotzke house has one side and the roof badly burned. The total loss will probably be about $4,000, with insur- ance of the Crumb house, but little on the furniture, while the other house has both building and furniture in- sured. The fire was d scovered at 5.55 in a loset while Mr. Crumb was sitting at breakfast, but there is no explanation of how it could have started. He ran out to send an alarm from box 13, ac he corner of High and Thames streets, while Mrs. Crumb aroused the rest of the family as well as the family up- stairs and her son Harry, who had a room at the top of the house. The blaze spread so quickly that, they had only time to get out in what clothing they happened to have on. In making the; corner at High and Thames street, W!th Driver Fitzgerald in charge, the autochemical hit a wall and also became disabled through a | break in a gear shaft in the back axle.

Another unfortunate cir- | cumstance that contributed to give the | blaze a good start was the distance of the alarm box from the house, in- | dicating that there ought to be another one in the middle of this long block. After the fire a diamond ring was found in one of the rooms of tne Crumb house at the request of one of the daughters of the family and re- stored to her and a chest of linen was also gotten out of the attic and low- ered 1o safety in the street.
