. The Trcasurer,s office

The recent improvements made in the
County Treasurer's Office have given it an
air of elegance and added greatly to It's
convenience for the transaction of business,
Increasing the accommodations alike OF the
Treasurer and his assistants, and of the
public. The partition that formerly divided
the Office has been taken away and the
office made to consist of a single room. The
old counter has been also removed and a
new one, of handsome material and work.
manship, substituted, extending along one
side of the room and then circling across it.
1t Is mounted with three large and elegant
Vanished desks for books and papers. Am
pie room is afforded behind the counter for
the business men of the office, while the
area.in front for the accommodation of the
public is so much enlarged that the great
est rush of taxpayers will not probably
produce anything like the crowding, jost-
ling and jamming so common of late years
about the times of the winter and summer
solstice-the 20th of December and the 10th
of June. p

Denth of DIR. Andrews.

DR.. John Andrews, Of this city, Presi-
dent of the Board of Control of the State
Bank OF Ohio, died suddenly while sitting
in his chair OH Sunday evening last, just
after his return from church. He had been
for many years afflicted with asthma, and
the immediate cause of his sudden death
was probably a spasmodic affection con-
nected with that disease.
DIR. Andrews removed to this city from
Steubenville some ten or twelve years ago,
when he was chosen President Of the Board
of Control. He had previously been a
practising physician in Steubenyille, and
had acquired high professional reputa-
ton. The latter years of his life were de-
voted to finance and banking, in which he
had few superiors.

appreciated. .t....-.---.-
Miss Mary Mitchell, sister OF Maggie,

Lyons. ,sirg .,.,l....-..... ....-
OF Miss Mitchell's impersonation OF
Pauline, we saw but small part, but
enough to satisfy us that she is destined to
achieve high rank as an artistic. Her
enunciation is remarkably clear and dis
tinct and her delineations OF character and
passion remarkably just chaste, and true

excellent, whether regarded in his humil-

changes In Claude's fortune was vivid and
graphic: The brave and generous old Col.
Dumas had a good representative In Mr.. C.
Beach, who also made his first appearance
last evening. Indeed, the play was hand
scmely rendered throughout. At Its close,
Miss Mitchell and Mr.. Albaugh were called

QUEBEC, G. E., Oct. 15-At four O'Clock
yesterday morning a fire began in the house
of Mr.. Ludel, grocer, st. Joseph street, near
Jacques Cartier market. Owing to the
early hour of the morning there were but
few people about. The wind, which had
blown half gale from the eastward all
night, had slightly abated, still it ragged
with such fury as to cause serious appre-
tensions. By the time the fire brigade
reached the scene Ludel's house was envel-
oped In flames. The sappers were al
ready there, but there was some delay in
laying the hose and getting force of wa

an hour, enabling the fire to make rapid
progress. No less than ten or twelve houses
were on fire, and lumber and wooden sheds

Plodowska, prima donna soprano, literally

Q most decided triumph. Her voice is RE RE-
markably rich and pure, and has clear.

ness Of expression, and a delicacy and An
