Last night as the old clock on tho city hall sounded forth the last Btroko of "ton o'olook and all is well," tho good pooplo within sound of its mellow notos replaced in their poekofs tho trusty watches.

At 11 : 30 p. m, the fire had burned ncar'y to embers. Luckily the haystacks stood at a distance from any building but a barn which escaped, or wo might have been called upon to chroniclo more serious damage. Upon iho arrival of'tho two hand engines no water was to bo found until after much bo arch an old well appeared. Then the hoso was too short, and after the hose was down, tho well proved dry. Water was then started from City creek, and at 10:45 p.m. the stream passed Kimball fc Lawrcooe'a corner en route to tho fray. At 11:10 p-m. the water arrived at the fire in time to see its dying flashes. "Citiacn" ex presses tho ideas of a delegation who waited upon the Herald to file complaint?. com-plaint?.
