TWO ALARMS SOUNDED. PBOPEBTT DESTROYED VALUED AT ABOUT INSURANCE OF $22,000. The works of the Natioral Foundry and Machine Company, at 1430 West Main streot. were entirely destroyed by Are lar night. Property to the value of between $30,000 and $33,000, according to figure of members of the company, was destroyed, the Insurance amounting only to $23,000, all placed with P.

Vlgllm St Co. The actual loss to the company, however, is more than twice as much as) above mentioned, owing to the great delay that will follow In filling the order which have been placed with the firm if they can be filled now- at all and the destruction of patterns, some of which can not be replaced and others that It will take- years to The fir wa discovered by the night watchman about 7:30 o'clock. It was in a small room in the southeastern part of the building. In which oils and wast were stored. The theory la that this Inflammable material was lighted by a "live" electric wire.

An alarm was turned In from box No. 643, but by the time the engines arrived the flames had gained such headway that a second alarm wa sounded. The bias shot high up in the sir. turning the sky a dull red. Fortunately, there were no buildings adjoining the plant, and the firemen had no difficulty, in fighting the flame.

The water tower, especially, did excellent work. The Interior of the big building was allot Iron and steel, but on the top floor were all the patterns for the steam pump and engines. Thcee pattern were all made of wood and burned like tinder. The walls are still standing and apparently are not damaged, but a member of the firm said last night that as nothing but heavy work was done in the building It would be unsafe to trust the walls after the fire, and as a cooquenc the whole building represents a loss. Th company la composed of F.

L. Reed-er, PresrkVejxtj F. M. Loeey, Secretary and Treasurer; A. V.

FrevUle, Vic President, and Marcus, Basil and John Doerhoefer, The firm was incorporated about seven years ajc, but had only been operating In the buil "Tig at Fifteenth and Main a little over years. Said iarcus Doerhoefer last night: account the building, stock and orders we had to fill, I wouldn't have taken a check for Jl 30,000 for th concern before the fire. We were working night and day shifts to fill our order. We employed about people, nearly all skilled mechanic, and, as a consequence, they wer well paid. Our business had Increased so much that bad practically made arrangements to purchase th lot adjoining th western side of th building from th Averys, and build an addition.

This lot is 90x300 feet. We shall try to find temporary quarter to do our work and will rebuild immediately. We shall put up a larger and more complete plant than the on destroyed." During th fire an employe named Sander attempted to get something out of the building, and was severely burned about the hands and anna, wa attended by Dr. Bora-man. THEIR AIM BAD.

Filipino Insurgent TJs Artillery Without Effect Driven Off. Manila. Sept 3, 7:50 a. m. The Insurgents made an unsuccessful attempt early yesterday morning to drive Col, Smith's command out of Angeles with artillery, the first time they, attempted to use this arm for months.

They brought two Krupp guns from Porac nd fired eight shrapnels at the town at dawn. Only a few of the shells exploded, and. the aim of the gunners being bad, bo damage was done. Lieut. Kenley'a gun, of the First artillery, were brought Into action Immediately and soon drove the enemy from their position.

At 4:30 o'clock this morning a small party of rebels fired Into Guagua, which is held by two companies of th Ninth regiment of infantry, supported by the gunboat LaGuna de Bay. One native resident was wounded. The enemy was drtven off by infantry Are and the gun of the gunboat. Stable Set Afire. A stable belonging to George Kean.

Tuesday Our store will be closed At the Theaters Avenue "Bemember the Mains." Commencing with the matinee this afternoon at the Avenue, "Remember the Maine." Lincoln J. -barter's story of the Spanish-American war, will be offered to lovers of sensational melodrama. The principal events of the war, from th time of the explosion of the Maine to the conclusion of the labors of the Peace Commission, are exploited in tha play. Among the historical personages who are characters of the drama are President McKinley, Gen. Weyler, Admiral Dewey, Capt.

Slgsbee. Gen. Fitshugh Le and Lieut. Andreas Sobral. Aside from Its merits as a play, the management of "Remember th Main" lay great stress on th scenic investiture.

Great warships move In the harbor of Havana and In the Bay of Cavite. Morro Castle, with its great frowning, gray walla and Its bristling guns, the old fort on Cor-regldor Island and th electric keyboard controlling the mines of Manila harbor, the blowing up of the Maine, the view of the wreck from the deck of th steamer City of Waahinxton. the caoture of tha old stone prison on the Havana water front, and the beautiful suburban villa of Capt. Rujeiro, of th Spanish navy, on the heights opposite Havana, showing th illuminated city, are among the stage picture presented. The play concludes with a series of transformation scenes of a patriotic nature.

The company includes among Its member Miss Evelyn Selbie, a native of Louisville. The engagement Is for the cur. rent week, and Includes a special holiday matinee (Monday) Labor Day. s. COTJXISSE CHAT.

Macauley's Opening1. For the fourth consecutive season Al G. Field's Greater Minstrels will open the regular season Macauley's. This Interesting dramatic event will take place on September 11. when the famous mln.

strel and hla big company will give a two nights engagement. It has Invariably been said of Al Field that he is keenly alive to every advance In his profession, and has kept pace with It. This year he has organised his company along this line, and he presents the strongest organisation of Its kind extant. Th minstrel world has been ransacked for its best people. The latest songs, the newest ragtime melodies and all that combines to make, a minstrel show bright and attractive will be seen and heard.

Field has devised a most unique first part, which is always a decided feature of the show. It is a scene In the Tullleries of Paris. A juvenile cake walk is a novelty. There is no lack of higher-class music, for In the first part there are sung with good effect "The Magyar Chorus," from "The Fortune Teller," and the celebrated drinking song from "Cavelleria Carroll, the famous juvenile clog dancer, is In the Field Minstrel Company. Welby, Pearl and Keys, who have been dancing together for twenty-five years and who are perhaps th most nimble-footed members of their profession, will be seen In a new specialty.

The sale of seats for the Field Minstrels will be gin Thursday morning at clock. Two New PlaysOne of Them Bad. Vastly different are the nature of th two farces with which the New York theatrical season may be said to have been launched last week. At Wallack's on Monday night Mark Ambient and Wilton Heritors "A Little Ray of Sunshine" was given its first American production, while the audience at the Criterion on the succeeding night inhaled th decidedly pungent odor of Frey dean's exotic, "The Girl from Maxim's." Metropolitan critics ar a unit In declaring th English fare wholesome; further than this they do not agree. By some it is pronounced InnocuoiM, by others wholly stupid, while some of the more kindly-hearted and just as eminent critics see in it much that Is mirthful and situations possessing a distinct and intrinsic humor.

Th frequently used, much abused term, "salacious," is applied by common consent to "The Girt from Maxim's." Toned down as she has been by the adaptor, who recognised that the American people even the New York theatrical contingent would not stand for the majority of the coarse and sacrilegious features of the Parisian production, which Is said to have shockod even the boulevardler, beyond which naught can be said. The girl is yet far from prudish. The thread of plot that "A Little Ray of Sunshine" possesses deals with the varied adventures of Lord Markham In his efforts to bring happiness to. his poverty, stricken relatives, who, fearing the visit of a money-lender to foreclose th mortgage on their house, and expecting on the same dsy the arrival of the wealthy A us. tralian kinsman, mistake th one for the other, and the race Is on.

Markham enters into the humor of th thing, and, after being successively deemed a pauper, a broker and a doxen other Impossibilities, clear the mystery as well as the mortgage and makes possible th marriage of the three young couple who have been engaged since the opening of the story. William Elton, Robert Bot-tomley, Janet Alexander and Grace Dudley are said to have don th best work. The matinee girls, the Willie boys, the rounders and those who went in the line of duty or from a purely "seeking after knowledge" standpoint to fThe Turtle" at Macauley's last season will remember that tha milk of the coooaaut, or rather the meat of "The Turtle," after the shell was removed, lay in Sadie Martlnot's disrobing scene. This was gradually led up to, forming the climax of the play. "The girl from Maxim's" is introduced in the very first act reclining in a large bed and clad only in, says Alan Dale "I believe they call It In the classic a chemise" a silk petticoat and maidenly modesty.

Th room from which she smiles on the audience is In the home of Dr. Petypont, who, In the absence of his wie. has "taken in" Maxim's American bar and supper bouse the night before and has returned home with, the damsel under hla wing. Her Closed 2 P. And all that day.

Remember evelyn selbie, in "rememclj? the the avenue i presence there, of course, gives rise to th "humorous situations of the farce." Petypont's uncle arrive that morning from a fifteen-years' stay In Africa, and, not having seen his nephew for that length of time, naturally supposes the girl his wife. The Doctor avows It, and the girl enters thoroughly into the Parisian humor of the complications that follow. The uncle -the nephew and his "wife" to the marriage of his niece, and there the manners, airs, grace and lack of grace of "the girl" start all of the country dames to Imitating her actions. In the midst of this scene the rightful wife arrives, and the Doctor passes an un pleasant "quatre a'heure. UI course things are straightened out In the last act, and from a Gallio viewpoint all ends hap- To the credit of Josephine Hall, who Is Praline, the girl from Maxim's, and of several of the feminine contingent of the cast, it is said that they failed both to look and act their parts.

W. J. Ferguson, after his last seasons work as "La Torture" in "Th Turtle, la hardly out of his element as th Dr. Petypont of the farce. Improvement At Macauley's.

There "have been so many promisee to renovate Macauley's Theater from season to season that tha patrons of this bouse almost ceased to expect improvements. This year ha been the exception, for the theater has been overhauled and put In splendid condition. The painter and fresco artists were engaged for three weeks, and the play-house is like new.
