TERRIBLE FIRE AT HELENSVILLE.

KAIPAKA HOTEL DESTROYED.

THE COOK AND ASSISTANT BURNED

TO DEATH,

MESSRS. McLEODS STORES

DESTROYED,

It is our painful duty.to chronicle a serious five at Holensville, resulting not only in tho loss of valuable property, but also of tho lives of two men, John Harris, the cook, and his assistant, named Mooney. The fire broko out at the Knipnva Hotel, Helens ville, about ten o'clock last night. The two men had retired to rest in an upstairs

.bedroom over the kitchen, and it is believed that the woodwork near the

ikitelien stovo must have ignited, as when flrst observed tho flames had obtained such ,a hold that it was impossible to get into the iroom, and tho greatest haste was mado with a view to save a few articles of furniture and wearing apparel. A number of men at great risk made an clt'ort to save tho billiard-table, but had to relinquish tho task. A quantity of goods and

effects were removed to the garden, but it did not enter into anyono'.s thought that while saving those articles two human beings were being burned to death in their beds*. The good* we have iUludt'd to as having been removed were placed m near the house that the wind blew the (lamea and particles of burning material an to the same ; the consequence was that they in turn ignited and were after all destroyed. Suddenly a cry was raised,

Whore's Jack Harris, the Cook ? Frantic cries wore raised, as Harris was seldom known to leave tho premises, and though ho had not been seen it was thought he might be at hand. As no response was made, tho neighbour hood was searched, but no one had seen Harris; and, in fact, at this time most jwoplo wero engaged endeavouring to pre vent the flames spreading to iUcLeod's stores and other buildings, or in trying to get goods, etc., out of tho same. On learn ing that Harris was missing, Constable Naughton at once had water thrown over the portion of the h're where tho body should bo found. Tho commotion at this time was heightened by McLeod's stores .burst ing into flames, and also by shouts of Whore is Moonoy ? The see.no now became appalling, and the shrieks of women and children, mingled with the shouts of mon, crackling of Hamcs, falling of timber, smashing-in of floors, tho howling of dog.s, and shouts of a sunall tribe of Maoris who had gathered up, woro most distressing, and as kerosono, oils, and other inflammable material in Me- Leod'a warehouse began to burn, the Hamcs upwards, casting an angry glaro over (tlw western sky, which led to tlu; Auck land Jtreuollti being rung, and engines being •got oat, though at so great a distance. 'SVhile the flames wero at their highest, a tremendous explosion took placo in tho .store, lifting tho blazing woodwork and red-bafc sheets of galvanised iron high up in the air; and just as the effects of this startling pyrotechnic display ceased, Con stable Naughton dragged forth from the burning pile of the hotel a portion of the fcody of Harris, the cook. The effect of jauch a combination of horrors was to render «eyeral individuals helpless with terror, but theft) were a number of residents who in a cool and determined manner fought with the fire, cud endeavoured to stay jta further progress, as well as to save nil that was possible of tho splendid stock of Messrs McLeod ; but unfortunately a largo quantity was stored in the cellar?, and,with r»ueh in the main buildings, was lost. It was evident that unless a butcher's shop adjoining tho store was quickly pulled down, another block of buildings would bo burned. Consequently seven experi enced bushmen, who wero fortunately at Jian4 with axes, and who had probably a few yeaf/s ago felled the timber as it stood in the forest previous to its being used up in that same building,were set to work, and in less time than it would tako to describe had cut up the butcher's shop, And numerous hands dragged the various (sections away,leaving not a joint orany thing to ra»rk it as being the site of a butcher's establishment excepting tho big block, by this njoft.ns the blacksmith's shop was £aved, aiso tka baker's shop and two private residences. Tis» families of Mr C. H. SpSndley and Mr Xngoni, living in the latter, had retired foi- the night, but with the assistance of neighbours cleared all the rooms. The stables opposite the hotel next ignited, and it was evident that if tho same burned that tho Public Hall and Mr James McLeod's private residence would bedostroyert. Every effort was put forth to save the Btables, which was done by means of a supply" of teator and wet blankets constantly thrown over tho roof. The piano was removed from the hall, and Mi' McLeod's furniture from his house, but fortunately the h're was : guppressed. It is impossible to describe thir feeling of horror and regret which prevailed when the strain of the work was over And it' became generally known that Poor Harris and Mooney woro Gone that the two men had actually been burned to death. Coostabb Naughton, with assistance, extricated from the fire portions of the charred remains of tho un fortunate cooks. Harris's body waa tho mostcomplete, bu± only disjointed fragments of the other have been resouedj which are hardly discernible as being any part of a human body. It is impossible to speak too highly in praise of tho manner in which resi dents worked to savo their neighbours' pro perties. Mr Isaac McLepd, James Hand, £urtis, Moore, and others were quickly on felio spot, and made every effort to stay the flames, but owing to the rapidity with which the hotel was destroyed.it was impossible to save much stock or furniture. We learn that the safe containing a\l the books and papers belonging to the firm of Messrs P. end J. McLeod was saved. The hotel was owned by Mr James Hand, and was leased to Mr McClellan. Insurances. The following aro tho insurances : — National.—Kaipara Hotel: i'l,3Co on the building and £500 on stock, of which £500 is re-insured j n tho South British, £350 in the United, £300 in tho North British and Mercantile, and £200 in tho Jforvvioh Union.

Mr Fenton's decisions were nover questioned, and Mr H. M. Jackson got tho horses away as well together as it was possible. Mr Pereival's handicapping was generally approved. Unfortunately, wo have to chronicle several accidents, which occurred during tho Steeplechase, lho water jump is, of courso, the most interesting event of the meeting, and always draws an assemblage to witness tho baptism of the jockeys. On this occasion there was an unusual throng, as it was known that tho oroek had been dammed up, and as there 13 no fencing, to keep them back, (he crowd got almost in front of tlie . horses; Woodpecker, in somewhat wild styiei hot across anil1 dashed lin among tho people, threw Rae, hi* rider, who was thereby disabled and bad to bo carried offthe course.and struck a man oji the head with his forefoot, indicting a sovero Rash ana knocking him prostrate. Woodpecker also cut a boy's leg above the kiica with a kick, and injured an individual on tho back. This place should ho fenood around be fofo another meeting, or there.will bo loss of life to report. As it was, Drs. Hooper and Parkinson were in great request, while Mr W. J.

EIGHT HOURS DEMONSTRA TION SPORTS.

O:i account of most of tho ovents being run behind time, wo were unable yesterday to give tho results in several of the principal events. The following concludes our report of the day's proceedings :—

Obstacle Race, half-mile, over 10 ob stacles.—lst prize (£10), J. Cosson ; 2nd (cabinet, value £2 10s, Jos. Ah Kew), P. McCarthy ; 3rd (poukot companion, by Mr A. Tilly, value 255), Jas. McDermott; 4th (pair vasea, value 10s, l'hillipps and Son). There was no one entitled to four prize, as only the three men finished the race. This was a most exciting race at the finish. McCarthy surmounted tho last obstacle in advance of all the others ; but Cosson fol lowed fast on his heels, and by a splendid spurt in the short distance which intervened between tho obstacle and the winning post, overhauled his antagonist, and landed a bare winner, amid the cheers of the specta tors.

Demonstration Handicap.,—Tho three stages of this competition were all well contested, and, with the exception of the Obstacle Race, this event commanded the greatest amount of attention. The final running, which was not completed till 4.30, showed tho following results:—M. Mon nock, Ist in ono stage, and 2nd in another : 10 points. T. Whiteside, Ist in one stage and 3rd in two others: 10. VV. Mettam, 2nd in two stages : S points. This shows a " tie ' between Monnock and Whitesido; but the Ist prize was claimed on behalf of the latter ou tho ground that he had scored in three events, while Monnock li.id only scored in two. This is tho usual rule in athletic com potitions.but us there wore special conditions laid down for theso sports, and these did not embraco this rule, tho decision was that there was a " tie " for first and second places, which should be decided by "run ning off" or dividing the prizes.

Quarter-milk Handicap, for bonujide membcra of Bricklayers' Society—lst prize (silvor cup, value _1, presented by Mr Scott, and £2 10s added), G. W. Crouch ; 2nd (80s), E.Waring; 3rd (10s and lever clock, 10s, Mr J. Adams), J. Oliver.

Half Milk Handicap, — Ist prize, (writing desk, value t'3, by Messrs Sargood, Ewen and Co., and £2 added), G. Cutler, 20 yards ; 2nd (clock, valio £1, A. and E. Isaacs), I). Craig, 10 yards; 3rd (butter cooler, valuo £1, Criiiekshank and Miller), F. Harrison, 30 yards. 200 Yards Handicap (for married men who never won a raeo). — Ist prize (lJrittauia metal teapot, valuo £1, Mr Dickey, with £1 added), VV. Kao, 0 yds; 2nd (large album, value 15s, Leydon Bros.), J. Howcll, 3 yds. 200 Yards Handicap (Hurdles). —Ist prizo (coloured meoi'sohiuim, valuo X' 2, Boylan and Lundon, with £1 added), D. Craig, 4yds. ; 2nd (framed picture, valuo 21s, Air Carter), H, McDonald, 7yds.

Delegates' Race.—lst prize (wedding cake), D. Twohill; 2nd, C. IS. King. Favoured with splendid weather, tho largo gathering of over 3,000 people thoroughly enjoyed themselves. In the course of tho afternoon Sir George Groy ; accompanied by Mr S. T. George, M.H.R., vii-ited the ground, witnessing tho obstacle race. His Worship the Mayoj' (Mr.W. R, Waddel) was also present.
