Mr. Penny's stock is pretty r-adly damaged by water but we think his insurance will bring him out safe. Mr. Sut ton, above him, had $1,000 and this it is hoped, will cover bis loss. The building is damaged to the extent of a few hundred dollars only. The fire originated in a closet on the third floor in which a lot ot odds and ends had been thrown and it is like ly that it was caused by spontaneous combustion.- There was a great deal of smoke, but not much fire. Mr. Fenneli's loss was .also fully covered by insurance. """The build ing is but slightly damaged and the stock not very greatly. The fire was in the rear, in a workroom, and hence the larger part of the stock es caped a great damage. Carolina Yacht Clcb.
