DEATH OF A DISTINGUISHED BAPTIST
MINIsTRR.-Rev. J. s. Bacon, D. d., dis
tinguished and widely-known minister OF
the Baptist Church, died at the residence OF
his son-in-law, L. r. Spilman. Esq, IN this
city, yesterday afternoon. His disease was
pneumonia, contracted at the State Fair
Grounds last Thursday.
DR.. Bacon was born IN Cayuga county,
n. Y, in 1901. He received his theological
education at the Newton Theologlcal In n
stitute, Massachusetts,, and immediately
after graduation came to Virginia. After
teaching in Amelia county three years he
was elected to the presidency of George
town College, Kentucky. and accepting the
position, removed to that State. Subse-
quentlv he became professor in the Ham,
ilton Theological Seminary, New York,
and was sent from that institution by the
Domestic Mission Board to superintend the
establishment Of missions in the Indian
Territory. Here he remained six months
in the faithful discharge of the important
duties with which he was entrusted, and
then returned to New England. He mar
ried in Boston. and shortly afterwards set
tied in Lynn, Mass, where he was pastor
for three years. ....
For thirteen years DR.. Bacon was the
President of the Columbian College, Wash

well known throughout the country, and
his resignation was received with general
regret. After this event Gn 1857 he came
to Virginia. and after short sojourn here
went to Tuscaloosa, Ala, where he con-
Quoted large female seminary for two
years. In 1859 he came back to Virginia
and taught II female school in Warrenton,
Fauquier county, until the breaking out OF
the war between the States.
Remaining in Warrenton until hostilities
ceased, and often within the Union lines,
he was equally respected by Federals and
Confederates for while pronounced
friend of the South, he was never an eX.
tremist, and did not degrade his sacred
office by meddling with partisan politics
He was a ripe scholar, thorough teacher,
an able minister. faithful pastor, and
wherever known was highly esteemed for
his lofty Christian character.

FIRE.-The alarm Of fire at 2 o'clock yes
terday morning was caused by the burning
of framed building on the corner of Leigh
and Adams streets occupied by Joe Green, a
colored man, MS blacksmith shop. The
lire was first discovered by Joe, who was in
bed at the time, and barely escaped with
his life. He lost eyerything-his tools,
Joe Green's loss amounts TO $50 in tools
and clothing, $3.50 the value Of the wagons
and cart. The building, which was used
formerly as Government bakery, and was
owned by the Government, was valued at
$500. The Governments is supposed to have
been insured. Joe had no insurance. The
affiiction falls very heavily upon him, as he
is Woodworking man, entirely dependent
upon his labor for his living.

Adjutant-General Army Of Cuba
A Curious Case Of Matrinl0,iy
Erom the Sinyrna melawarel Times.


We occasionally read of noteworthy
events in matrimonial matters in our eX-
changes, and this week we are called upon
to note one in our own midst. The mar
riage is recorded in the proper place Ill this
issue, the married couple being we'll known
and respected citizens, the groom having at
one time filed the Office Of Shelif of the
county with credit to himself and the sta
ton he occupied. The bride, by the ruth
less hand of Death, has been compelled to
follow five husbands to the grave (all former
respected citizens of this community and
don the "widow's weeds"; and now
Cupid, without regard to past circum-
stances, has hurled another fatal dart, and
at the age of about tifty-tive years she again
bows nj Hymen's altar Ito which she is led
for the sixth time) to offer herself willing
sacrifice to the God Of Marriage by q gen.
tleman who has entered his eighty-tirst
wear. She becomes his second wife. In every
instance save the first the lady has mar
ricd widowers with children, while she
has remained without issue. And now,
while she is childless, she has married Il
husband who has founded tribe. The
number of his scendantS-children grand
children, and great erand-children-was,
when last counted, Just one hundred and
sixty-tiye, and there have been number OF
accessions since-nearly enough to make
the number seventy, he thinks: There are
other circumstances in connection with the
gentleman's life that we feel constrained to
refer to, though not altogether appropriate
under this head perhaps: Notwithstanding
his numerous progeny, he has had but one
death in his family-his first wife. He never
borrowed dollar in his life, and never paid
Il cents costs in suits of law on his own ac-
count. We may add, with pleasure, that
he is remarkably hale and healthy (as is also
the bride), weighs two hundred and ten
pounds, stands nearly six feet in height,
and stands even higher in the estimation OF
his fellow-citizens than he does in his boots.
May "fortune favor the brave"

In view of the profusion Of elms and the
insufficiency of living accommodations at
Yale, the reputation of thatinstitution may
be said to rest upon the maxim, "Trees
faciunt collcgium."-W World.
A painter who fell in Milford, n. H., on
the I'd instant, from staging to the ground,
distance of sixty feet, struck upon his
head with such force rs to break a fiat stone
over an inch in thickness into several
pieces, fractured his skull, broke both legs
above the knee, dislocated one hip. and
shivered the bones of one of his elbows to
atoms. Nevertheless. he was conscious
when taken up. was still alive at last ac-
counts, and his physicians think it possible
that be will recover.

music in q Chinese theatre of that city rs

with 600 instruments In front, and 4, 900 en-
