The great fire at Jacksonville,
Florida, last week was a terrible
disaster, one hundred and forty-

ten thousand people were left home-

sufferers and two thousand home-
less people sought shelter there.
Governor Jenkins of Florida sent
troops, placed the city under mar-
tini law and sent $20,000 to aid the
