WORKINGS OF AN INcRNDIARY.-Tbe alarm
| of fire which was given and was promptly
responded to by our energetic fremen on
last Thursday morning about quarter to
one o'clock, was occasioned by the burning
of two houses and their appertenances, the
property of Capt. B. o. Neal situated on
the North side of High between Court and
Middle streets. The steamer Virginia was
placed at the large oistern fronting the
court house, but was unable to get water.
This cistern has been more than once re-
ported to the councilmen as in a leaky con.
dition, but by this honorable body no notice
has been taken Of the report; the steamer
then, by order of the chief engineer, was or
dered to the ferry wharf, but having only
five hundred feet of hose it was of no SER
vice even with the four sections from the
navy yard. By this time the steamer United
from Norfolk arrived and by uniting her
hose with those ofthe Virginia and the four
sections from the navy yard, stream was
at last obtained. During this time the
Chambers Hook & Ladder Company were
busily engaged in pulling down the walls,
also, the Vigilent boys were as active with
their engine as they could be. At one
time fears were entertained that the build
ings occupied by Messrs. Lingo and Orphe.
liza would be burned, as the show for water
was poor, but the appearance Of the yard
engines put quietus to all fears, as there
were then plenty Of hose on the ground.
The estimated loss by the workings of the
foul fiend In human shape is estimated to
be $4,000, upon which there was no insur
ance. We hope to report at an early day
the erecting of buildings that will compare
with the Ocean House which they will |
join.

VALUE OF THE WILLow.-The importance
of the willow to man has been recognized
from the earliest ages, and ropes and twigs
were probably among the very first OF hus
man manufactures in countries where those
trees abound. The Romans used the tw'gs
for binding their vines and tying their
reeds in bundles, and made all sorts of bass
kets. A crop ofwillows was considered SO
valuable 10 the time of Cato, that the sa'
lictum or willow was ranked next in value
to the vineyard and the garden.
In France the leaves are considered the
very best food for cows and goats; and
horses in some places are fed entirely upon
them from the end of August till Novembe r
Horses so fed, it is stated, will travel TWEEN
ty leagues .day without being fatigued
In the north of Sweden aad Norway, as
also in Lapland, the inner bark is kiln-dried
and dried, for the purpose of mixing with
oatmeal in time of scarcity. The bark OF
the willow and the leaves are astringeat.
The former is much used In tanning.

Where is Drake S. T x. 1902 We have
heard this question asked many times,
and for all we knew for a year past he
might be dead. Recently in New York,
we called at his Laboratory in Liberty
Street, and there found this gentleman
barricaded behind q tremendous pile o
boxes distributing funds to a Sunday
School Committee. Our business was to
secure an advertisement. He said =" My
dear sir, what Is the use of advertising
the Plantation Bitters? They sell better
now than when II advertised at such
enormous expense, and now have not
made contract for a year have all
this amount to give to the poor. To sat
sly the Press, who have always been
my friends, think will give you lit
tie something to do again, tor have inn
proved the Bitters greatly, and 1T may be
wellto have you let the people know it,
And so he ran on in happy, cordial, APP
preciative manner, showing us the wont
ders of his place and the cords of certih-
Gates. Every thing is on magnificent
scale, and Is done with neatness and
promptness. White there we saw at least
forty orders come in for these celebrated
Bitters. Cases were being shipped to the
four corners of the world. Drake is not
dead, nor his Biuers either.-Exchange
