PHILIP PH1LL1Ps.-There are thou
sands of good singers in the world, of
greater or less celebrity, but there is
but one Philip Phillips. He is peculiar
and alone, in his special department.
As singer of sacred songs he has no
rival. His power over an audience is
wonderful and not easily explained,
except, perhaps, by an expert. This
power is felt, the moment he begins TO
sing. Before single line Is completed
you are his prisoner, and he leads you
as he Wills. His "tremolo" is an APP
peal which may not be resisted. His
soul is in his song, and his singing;
and IN uch of his power no doubt lies
in the blended melody of heart and
voice, OF which his singing is the elo-
uuent ex preston. Those who have heard
i'm once. will hear again, II possiblei
and those who have never heard him,
do themselves u great pleasure and "a
great good by hearing him on Satur-
day evening.

You had the scholBrs trained SO well
Every one knew what 10 do and what TO tell

I small remember when in old age
Every thing in order and WIS hne

From the pulpit every scholar came
AS though they were determined to share q

And after every piece was said
A tune on the Dulcimer was played
You the last upon the stage did rise
While speaking to us many tears fell from

Then said you farewell to you all
And many tears from your eyes did fall
Down TO the floor from the stage you came
And said children go behind the curtain
There You kissed them and caIle1 by name
And said TO them all farewell again

When the Teacher and scholars had to part

ing, between two and three O'Clock. the
citizens of that staid old town, Wash

SAUNDERS by the cry OF fire! Flames
We're discovered issuing from build
Ing near the Mansion House, on Main
street, which quickly spread to that
establishment and the grocery store of
the Messrs. Mounts Immediately ad-
Joining. The wind was blowing strong
~ from the west. and there being no
regularly organized ire Department in
the town, the fire soon made snch nro-
Rress that all hope of sayjn,y tho

was turned to carrying otIt the
furniture, and quite co,,s;I

though in damaged condition. The
goods in the grocery were much Ininrs
ed by water, but the loss is peT6sno
fully covered by Insurance. 1t is said
that the owners OF the hotel had poiS.
cy of 5000 on the building and furni-
tuFe.
The fire is supposed to have been
the work OF an inCendiary, as it was
first discovered in room where none
had been kept for several days. The
citizens turned out promptly, and al
though entirely unorganized, worked
vigorously and effectively. 1t was only
by almost superhuman exertions tina
the large stables In the rear of the
hotel. and other surrounding property
was saved from destruction.

instead of acting as Sttmulant and tonic,

thoroughly tested upon such a scale, at the
Mcclure House in Wheeling, and at the
country residence of Mr. J. P. Gilchrist, near

production of small and large quantities OF
Gas, and can be with great economy applied
