NARROW ESCAPES.

The Inmates OF many Of these houses,
startled irom sumber, had barely time to
rush out in their scanty night attire, leav-
ing their household goods to destruction.
In several Instances children were hastily
wrapped in blankets and quilts to break
their fall. and thrown from sccond-story
windows 10 the ground.

NO WATER IN THE CITY.

Not less than 10000 buildings have al
ready been destroyed. The fire has burned
distance OF five miles and is still raging,
and the wind is blowing gale.
1t will be almost impossible to get any
reliable details and particulars for sumo
time. as there is only ono telegraph wire
working, and that only TO subscribers.

Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1871-06-22

The republicans Of Ohio did a very fair days
work at their State convention, held at Colum-
bus yesterday. In addition TO placing themselves
on q stable and popular platform, they put in
nomination State ticket in which the conside-
rations Of geographical location, recognition of
the various elements composing the party, gene
raj ability, and special fitness for the several
Offices to be flled, were 30 judiciously weighed
and nicely adjusted as to make il one OF the
strongest placed before the people Of that State
by either party for long time. As matters now
stand, We see no reason why the ticket should not
be triumphantly elected, and the next Legisla-
ture also be secured by 9 handsome majority
thus insuring republican successor 70 Mr. Sher-
man in the United States Senate.

Proper and Improper Elevations

While the bill requiring the Washingt and
Georgetown Railroad Company to put their
tracks on south It'll street on grade was under
consideration in the Council yesterday, a com
muEieation was read from the president of the
company stating that he proposed to relay the
track, but that the work had been delayed for the
reason that the City Surveyor had been 50 en-
gagged that he had not been able to give the
proper elevations Technically the term "eleva-
dons" may be all right, but, in plain Language,
what Is wanted for the track on south It'll stra,,,
IS depression, and q good deal of thar. When
north 9Th street was paved the surveyor happened
give the railroad company some very improper
elevations, or rather allowed it to keep them.
