ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES.
ANOTHER FIRE.-Last about

Master Bolan Mrs Bolan John Brintoa
ANOTHER FIRE.-Last evening about
615 o'clock. the house Of Mrs. Rosetti,
on D street, Virginia, near the Gould
& Curry works, ut the ear Of Scott's
saloon, took fire from the bursting or
breaking Of coal oil lamp. The hose
Of the works was Immediately run out
and the fire extlnguished before the
alarm had brought the Fire Depart
ment to the scene with all their ma
chimes. None were fortunately need
cd. We regret to learn that Mrs.
Rosetti, wife Of Alex Rosetti, who
used to keep the oyster and lunch
stand and billiard room at Daley 4
Goodman's saloon, was severely
burned by some Of the blazing oil from
the lamp setting her clothing on fire.
The house was considerably damaged.
That same Gould i Curry hose has
thus done splendid and highly effective
service on various occasions, and IS
particularly suggestive Of how we'll
the idea we have so often suggested Of
q series Of similar hydrants and hose
throughout the city would operate.
The stream Is led through a heavy
main pipe from the large water tank
OF the company, just above B street,
down to their works on d street.
This gives a heavy pressure, and on
attaching the hose to the hydrant,
which can be done In a few seconds, a
stream Is at their command better and
moro continuously effective than can
DO thrown by the best fire engine In
the city. Better than all, 1t Is never
i'out Of service" but always In order,
and the few men needed never get
tired working 1t.
ANOTHER INcESDIARY ATTEMPT
About halE-past three O'Clock this
morning another bold and deliberate
attempt wal made to set the city Of
Virginia on fire. Some internal
scoundrel placed a lot Of old rags and
other combustibles, well saturated
with coal oil, between q couple OF
houses lust below C street, and on the
upper side of the Gould & Curry
works, and set it blazing. The night
Waterman at the works saw the light,
and hurrying thlther, he succeeded In
putting out the fire without giving a
general alarm. The houses referred
10 are at the e Of the Occidental
lodging house, on South c street. and
n the fire had got fairly started It
could not have failed to do q great
amount Of damage, owing to the
thickly settled, inflammaole nature OF
that locality. oil the houses being OF
wood, with the exception OF the brick
building occupied by johnson as a fur-
nlture Store. Whatever. may be the
object Of the incendiary, whether for
q or In order to take the oppor-
tunity to rob during the confusion Ola
fire, It would be an intensely satisfac'
tory pleasure to see him hanging at
tbe end of a rope. Such villains
sbould be hung frst and tried after
ward. II Willis had been properly
hung for about half an hour before
sending him 10 the State Prison, he
would not be now among the escaped.
IRoS AwSISes.-In rebuilding the
burnt district at Virgins, especially
along C street, objections are already
being made 20 tho rebuilding OF all
thoss broad, heavy wooden awnings
norcbes and balconies. They certainly
did do much to assist the nre III cross
ing the street. Awnings along tne
sidewalk are q comfortable INSTITUTION
in both hot and stormy weather. anu
people will have them. They line all
the balance Of the street. and properly
holders In the burnt district have as
much right to awnings If they choose
az ANYBODY else. Neat iron awnings
could be put up, covered with CORFU
gated sheetiron roofing, or something
Similar. thus being both useful inc
ornamental, as we'll as strong anu
durable.
ALONE IN Hrs GLoRY.-Myrick, the
well-known broker on c street, VIZ
ginia, was the only one who didnt
get burnt out by the great fire OF day
before yesterday. He opened his once
and went on with his business us usual
Yesterday. His office happened to 90
in the front Of Kelly s. Lowensteins
store, the only building In the burnt
district not totally destroyed: IL
looked quito comical to see Myrick 40
costly ensconcsd in his little office WIN
nothing but ruins around him on every
tIda far and near; monarch, as 1t were,
of ali he surveyed. His residence was
destroyed, together with all It's CON
tents. he only saving IN trunk luii VI
clothing and other articles.
