so called wizard city, a victim of
wind swept flames, was already
rising from its ashes today, work
men being busy clearing away the
debris incident to rebuilding.
In the isolated area brick struct

where frame buildings .stood be
fore. This was asserted by those
who have undertaken the erection
of a new town on the site of the
old one, despite the fact that com
paratively little insurance was
carried on the destroyed property.
One man at least in Hopewell
looked well ahead in protecting
his property, a two-story brick
office building, which cost him
5 uuu to erect and wuicn was
bringing in $1,000 a month rental.
This man was M. A. Finn, former

saw to it that the building was
fully covered by insurance, but
also insured the rental.
Conservative estimates today
place the total loss at $1200,000.

fire was first discovered in the

TEACH THE CHILDREN.
By teaching -the children, some of
whom will in a few years administer
the laws, a.long stride toward fire pre
vention will be taken, and the children
while being taught, will interest par
ents, who, will, as never b'efore, recog
nize the importance of ; the question,
and, rather than plead ignorance on
such an -lmpertant and self-interesting
subject, will lend their aidin the cam
paign for fire prevention.
One individual in aUet of individ-'
uals can do only little, but if the 'sen
timent for the saving of life and prop
erty is spread , (and it can be though "':
education) the interest "must increase, '
