A VERY STUBBORN RRE Raged in the Whitney Building Last Night. LOSS RUNS INTO THOUSANDS With Full Insurance—A Whole Block of Build ings Thieatened, But Saved by Good Work. Last night for the third time in less than two years the Whitney building, on Twenty-first street, between First and Second avenues, was threatened with de struction by fire. It was about 7 o'clock that the fire was discovered in the building and immedi ately the alarm was turned in Trom box 22, located at First avenue and Twenty first street. The fire department made a quick run and soon had several streams of water playjng on the building, but it was with the greatest difficulty that the flames were readied, and for that reason the department was more than an hour and a half extinguishing them. The fire seems to have originated in or near the elevator shaft and was con fined to that and the third floor. Hut the steamers were kept busy pumping water, one from First avenue and the other from Second avenue, the greater portion of the time. For a time it seemed as if the entire block of buildings between First alley and Second avenue would be swept away, but by valiant work the firemen confined the flames to the Whitney build ing, and in fact saved the greater part of that. Just how the fire originated is un known. Mr. Gary of Gary & Co., who occupied the building, stated to a State Herald reporter last night that he left the store about 6:30. and at (hat time saw no signs of a fire. The store, he said, had had a Are in it all day. but that had been allowed to burn out and was very small when he left. The store flue, so far as he knew was not defective. The store flue runs near the elevator shaft,in which the fire originated. The entire building of three floors was occupied by Robert Gary & Co., whole sale dry goods, notions, etc., who carried a large stock of goods. The stock was badly damaged by water, though only a comparatively small part of it burned. The bnildlng is owned by F. H. Whit ney of lawn and is controlled by W. B. Reedy & Co. The losses are fully cover ed by Insurance. It was Impossible to ascertain last night the exact loss, but it will probably approximate $10,000. The building was valued at $10,000 and the stock at $25, 000. They were insured as follows: The Building. Represented by W.

Birmingham society is at present graced with the presence of several beau tiful and attractive young ladies, but perhaps few are aware that among the number is one who is a devotee of the muses. One of these, who evidently has just emerged from a summer flirta tion, sends the State Herald the follow ing lines: She promised to love him ever. And their engagement ring Was six bright diamons, set in a cross—^ Quite a substantial thing. They "cased” It all summer. But broke ofT in the fall; Site sent him back ills pictures, His letters and trinkets all. All did I say—well no. not quite. She kept the diamond ring And added as a P. S. Simply, “To thy cross I cling.” Good fishing at East Lake. 12-l-tf _ The right “ad” in the right place will always bring re sults.

Takes His Daily Walk to Gate City and Return. Will Probably Fight Goddard in South Africa. Denver Ed Smith and Trainer O’Leary were seen as usual taking their morning's exercise in a brisk running walk to Gate City and return yesterday, and when hailed and interviewed by a State Herald representative Mr. O'Leary was easily led around to the principal sporting topic as to who was the rightful possessor of the world’s pugilistic championship. Mr. O'Leary reiterated his statement published in the State Herald recently, and said that he was willing to devote all his time in training Denver Ed for the Smith-Goddard fight, to be pulled oft in South Africa. The other men, the opponents of Ed in Saturday night’s contest, are also in earnest training, and propose to let the champion know of their presence on that occasion. So far everything has been amicably adjusted and no unforeseen obstacles are looking forward to. Tersely'told. Contractor Delaney was struck by a switch engine at Coalburg yesterday and slightly injured. Holiday goods are attracting consider able attention and presents are already being purchased and laid aside. Mr. C. D. Reamer, representing the Fenton Metallic Manufacturing company of Jamestown, N. Y., is in the city look ing after the steel furniture his company is putting in the various court house of fices. The engine attached to Louisville and Nashville passenger train No. 3, due at 3:12 p. m., jumped the track at the switch near Twentieth street yesterday after noon. No damage was done other than to spread the track for a few feet. The train was delayed about half an hour. Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad checks are received by T. C.

You will certainly do yourself an injustice if you do not see his shoes before you buy. Jasper Horton, colored, from Shelby county, was tried yesterday by United States Commissioner H. A. Wilson on a charge of perjury. It is alleged he swore another man sold whisky and that the evidence he thus gave was false. The commissioner, after hearing all the evi dence, bound the defendant over to await the action of the next term of the United States grand Jury In the sum of $300, in default of which he was sent to Jail. unfortunate Cod-liver oil suggests consumption, which is al most unfortunate.
