The flames were not so bad, but the smoke was thick penetrating driving back the uni: nitiated halt blinded. Steadily the fire men overcame each difficulty, stop by step, and gradually gained the upper hand, Soon they' reached the highest level and knew the battle was theirs for they could now fight the demon above, and keep the flames from spreading. A very fortunate thing it wae, (00, for through it the pharma- ceutical laboratory, which has re- cently been magnificently fitted up, along the most modern and improved Jines, escaped undamaged, The water, fire and smoke damaged everything, ho v, in the remainder of the building particularly in the southern wing. Perhaps the most la- mented - loss of all was the destruc tion of the library of medical works, many of the volumes therein being very valuable and practically i sible of being replaced. The the seeretary-trensurer of the faculty, Dr. W. T Connell, was also devtroyed, but fortunately the records and books of the institution were saved, Just what the total loss will amount to is hard 10 ascertain. The recently erected tional storey called for an outlay of over $11,000 and the entire building its contents are valued at any- where from £60,000 to $80, in 0,000 is carried by the university and 812.000 by the medical itself and should cover the cost of ilding.

Returning to the cause of the trom- ble, the explanation given, is the only feasible one and certainly borne out by an inspection of the burned portions of the building, so that there cian be no doubt of its corrtnoss. When the jenitor, John Ash, locked i] up last evening everything was as well 'as usual, and the occurrence can only be ibed to one of the many unaccountable adversities or apparent adversities of fortune. Antong the medical profession of the city and members of the faculty much sympathy was expressed over the sud- den destruction of the building so dear to them and filled with memories of student ve, However, all are overjoyed: to know that the disaster will in no way effect the es and convocation hall purposes. In 1869 it was taken from the medical faculty, and became the home of the arta and theology students.

A case of alleged sale of goods on Sunday, a violation of the Lord's Day Aet, against George assen, figured, prominently, in police court, this morning. To the charge defendant pleaded "not guilty." T. J. Rigney appeared for defendant. P.C. Driscoll in the box, stated that Cain came to the police station om Monday morning, claiming that Has- sen had given him a bad quarter for change, after buying something the day previous. When witness went down to Hassen's, the defendant ad- mitted having sold lemon sour, in a back room, on Sunday. A good piece was given for the bad money. To Mr, Rigney witness said Hassen willingly gave the good in return for the bad quarter, Fred: Cain gave evidence that he purchased two bottles of soft drinks and a package of cigarettes, on Sun- day evening, at nine o'clock. He said ho received the bad quarter Sn getting a fifty cent piece changed. + Leonard Hepburn, who was with Cain on Sunday evening, corroborated previous witness as to. the purchase. Leo Mahar, one of the trio who visited Hasson's, when the alleged purchase was made, gave similar evidence to the two previous witnesses. The defendant admitted the three boys were in his place on Sunday night, and went in the back shop. He did mot wait on them, but later changed the 50c. piece. When the po- liceman and Cain came next morning he gave Cain a good quarter. John Hassen was behind the counter ol the shop, on Sunday night. hoys were in "Riotous ac read upon which Ni and Donto Dono- fie appeared before Nagistrnte Far police court this morning.

The medical health officer reported that during June there had been the following - contagious disease cases : diphtheria, 23; scarlet fever, 2; ty- phoid, 1. Fifteen of the diphtheria cases were in five families, and most of the others originated from con- tact by other children. Mr. said that instead of monthly reports from the hospitals, as at present, daily reports should be sent to the medical health officer. The latter stated that although daily re- ports were not sent to him, he visited the hospitals every day and looked into the contagious cases himself. Mr. Thompson pointed out that the ob- ject of dail¥ ifformation was to en- able the health officer to place the ar- igin of the diseases. JAMES DIER DEAD. He Was a Well Known Westport Man.
