AFterthe Fire.

The people of the burnt district are grad
ually resuming their old occupation of re-
deeming the forests and bringing back
their farms to their old condition before
the fire. Many of them are building rough
shanties on their places in which they will
pass the winter and get their places fenced
ready for blowing and planting in the
spring. The balance will hare houses
ready to move into next spring and mean
time will find work outside Of their farms
TO get together little means to enable
them TO once more commence ON their
places. All seem hopeful and ready to
make the best of their sad situations. Let
us hope that success will crown their noble
efforts The relief committee at this place
will hereafter issue supplies once week,
on every " ednesday, to avoid the conf,is ion
and unfairness resulting from indiscrimi-
nate issues every day, and eneble the ap
plicants to devote more time to their work.
The systeE' under which they are working
is probably the best that can be devised
and those who find the most fault are most
likely those who need the least help

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
-Four Buildings Burned.


This morning, AZ O'Clock, destructive
FIRE broke cut on Eighth street, between York
and Commercial, which involved the de-
struction of four houses, which were occu-
pied in the lower part as stores and the up
per part as dwellings.
The fire first made It's appearance between
the buildings occupied BY Messrs. LANCE and
SchafTer, and in few moments both buili-
ings were enveloped in flames. The fire de-
pertinent was quickly on the spot, and by 5
o'clock had the fire under control. There
was high wind blowing at the time, but
providentially it was from ,he east /; had 1t
been from any other quarter, nothing could
have saved tie entire block from destruction.
II was only by the greatest exerti0ns and
watchfulness ON the part of the iremen and
citizens that the fire did not cross the street.
as the sparks and burning shingles were de-
posted in great quantity on the roCfs Of the
buildings opposite, and at one time the avn
ing in front Of Mrs. Feukcrs millinery store
took fire, which was however torn down be-
fee the flames communicated to the building
The cause Of the fire is unknown, but is
supposed TO be the act of an incendiary, as
no fire was used in the part Of the building
where the fire originated The dwelling of
Mr.. Alters, to the south Of Schatfer was on
fire several times, but the fire was as quickly
eItingui,hed.
We would call the attention Of our city
authorities to the necessity of fire alarm
bell of sufficient power to awaken our citi-
zens and hremen, as the alarm given this
morning was scarcely heard except by those
living in the immediate vicinity of the en-
CINE houses.
The following is list OF the buildings
burned with the name. OF the occupants, AMI
the losses NJ far as can be ascertaincd

The Vocal md instrumental Concert.

Inc vocal nnd Instrumental Concert.
Given for the benefit of the Ladies Society
of the First Presbyterian church last eve
ming, i'll every way a success. The base
ment of the church was crowded to its ut
most capacity by an attentive anil apprcci-
alive audience. The programmes for the
occasion was well arranged, and gave
wide range for musical, and even dramatic
talent to display itself. The opening
piece, quartcttc, by Mcssrs Thomb> and
Place, and Misses Young and Wilcox was
finely executed. .sW hat are the Will
Waves Saying" (luet) by Mr. W. G.
Stevens and Mrs. Ryder, is deserving of
especial mention, as Il ,cGs most beautiful
" sn7g. "Wc'll have to Mortgage the
Farm lin clstumc) by Mcssrs. Thombs,
Smith, Stevens, Misses Sibrcc, Young and
Wilcox, proved a happy hit on young
ladies of the period" Mr.. Thombs and
Miss Sibrec, as old folks, acted their parts
to tho life; Miss Sibrec looking rs matronly
rs cap and spectacles could make her.
"Under the Beautiful Stars (duct) by
Misses Rider and Easton, was a
beautiful selection and finely rendered.
:" Sweet Distant Chimes (trio) by Misses
Mason, Young and Wilcox, was charm
ing piece, and admirably sung, the rapt
attention of the audience being silent,
but eloquent, testimonial of their entire APP
probation. Jolly Jonathan, (quar-
tctte) by Messrs. Place, Woodin, Ryder
and Allan, was heartily enjoyed by the au-
dience, in which we noticed the Dutchnlan
had the last word, out-taiSin5 even the
everlasting Yankee. The "Two Cousins"
duct by Mrs. Ryder and Miss Mason, was
beautifully rendered, and acted with arch
and easy grace. Miss Barrie, whose SUI
perb roice and musical culture is well
known to all our citizens and always lis
tened to with delight, was above all praise.
She was billed to sing. Adelaide by Bee
thoyen, but some difficulty arose as to in
strumental accompaniment, and the song
was changed to "Swcet Spirit Hear My
Prayer 1t was all the same
to us. We supposed we were
hearing "Adelalde," (solo) Gas Bee
.thoven never having sent us the music)
we did not know the difference for some
time. Yet we heard the prayer with de
light, and are willing to hear any number
of prayers if sung with such skill c,ad
pathos.
There were also some fine solos both
vocal aud instrumental, also duets and quar-
tettes. which we have not space to mention.
Taken as whole, it was the finest anna
teur concert we ever attended, and demon
strates the fact that we do not need to 90
out Of our own city for really fine voices
or musical talent.
Much praise is due those whose untirinc
efforts have brought about such satisfac-
tory results. The necessary training and
bringing together of such variety of home
talent to a harmonious whole is an artf,ous
task, which few would be willing to under
take, and the thanks of the public are due
the managers and working members. as
well as the singers, for rare and pleasant
aptarto,,,uepf

convey intelligence Of very serious and exciting
character.
The festivities OF Easter have been marred and
clouded in the Russian territory Dy religious perse
cution and outrage.
have been informed for the service OF the
HERALD, that the London Standard received news
telegram this morning from Vienna, which states
that "a religious riot had occurred at Odessa. The
Jews were despoiled and great devastation COM
mitted.n
The local authorities were powerlcss against the
rioters for the prevention OF the first tumuis OF
the suppression OF the subsequent disorder.
II Is alleged that the Israeiltes have been re-

political dIsfavor In Russia and along the ne OF the
Danube during some time just past. have
been told that the Israelitcs nave aggregated m
great numbers suddenly, at different points BY
migration from the more disturbed districts Of

During some eighteen months just ended, the
Jews in Russia, like their neighbors Of Mol
davia, have been IN great distress, and applied
for assistance to their more prosperous CO
religonists In Western Europe. A short time
ago all Jews residing within forty miles OF the
Moldavian frontier were ordered to remove into
the Interior of the empire aud the order was
executed with such severity that only few days
were allowed even for large families to dispose or
their houses and leave the country. The population
which had TO perform this new exodus amounted to
100000 and the heavy losses caused by their sudden
removal reduced my OF them to state OF destitu-

bitterly OF the persecution which they suffered
at the hands Of the authorities. A Russian soldier

A column of Spanish troops, commanded by
Colonel Bascones, had very severe engage
ment on the 9th Of March, at Los Desiquia,
near the River Nejasa, with the rebel forces
commanded by Generals Ignacio Agramonte
and Julio Sanguil The Spanish loss was
numerous. Among those dangerou -ly wounded
were Captain Laso and Lieutenant Morales de
Roda the latter has since died. At a later
date some rebel forces encountered the Ell
Rayo column of Spanish troops under Colonel
Montaner. The fighting was very severe, and
heavy losses were sustained on both sides.
II Is reported that the Spanish column COM
force under General Vicente Garcia, intrenched
at Naraujae and Monte Oscuro, and the latter
were driven from their positions with loss OF
eighty Spaniards and .wenty-one rebels.
A party of rebel bushwhackers near SAM
tago are engaged in burning bridges, attack
ing trains, firing estates and committing other
depredations with impunty. Numerous minor
engagements have taken place in the rebel
districts, with contradictory statements as to
the results. The Djario admits the news
from Santiago to be painful, and admitted the
same last week regarding the news from Santi
Espiritu, and says that the rebe's, disembar-
raised of the women, children and old men,
who impeded their movements, have effected o
more systematic organization Of guerilla war
fare, causing thus much damage by ambus-
cades and surprises.
Four rebel prisoners captured by Major
Recarey's column in an engagement were i'm
mediately ex ecuted.
Neue Lerdarro, Emilio Nufiez, Tomas eric
and Fernando seayas lately surrendered and
were imprisoned at Puerto Principe.
