FrRH YEsTERDAY.-Theta were two
alarms Of fire yesterday, and third one
was reported, but we conld get DO definite
Information Of is location. ...
About eleven o'clock in the morning
the bell on the Fourth Ward Engine
House was heard striking an alarm for
that section Of the city. 1t was quickly
taken up by that on the Guards Hose
House in the Filth. In few minutes
crowds of people were running here and
there hunting tho FIRE. Every one seemed
10 be anxious to ascertain where It was,
but was unable to get the desired inform
alton. After short time the excitement
subsidized, and later, 1t became known
that the house Of Mrs. Roberts,
southeast corner Of Centre and Sixth
streets, was the property threatened.
The fire was discoveredin a large chest,
and the first intimatlon the family had of
It's presence was given by a gentleman
rushing in and informing them that
the house was on fire. 1t was sometime
before It's precise location was ascertained,
and then only by the flames bursting out

worth mentioning was done. How the
fire originated Is matter Of speculation

ed where, and when, as above mentioned
The second alarm was at nine o'clock
last night The several bells struck for
the Sixth Ward and crowds Of men and
boys were soon rushing along the streets
leading to that portion Of the city. The
engines fastened to the spot, guided by
the lured glare OF the flames on the
heavens. Being down in the direction Of
the Baltimore & Ohio Shops, the report
that they were being destroyed was
quickly circulated. 1t proved, however,
to be an old building on the premises of
the Company, used for drying sand. The
IRE is believed to have originated from
the stoves kept heated for the purpose
indicated. The loss was but trifing. The
Department did pretty good service after
getting on the ground. There was some
delay in reaching the fire, and as no plugs
were near, several minutes were lost in
getting sufficient hose to reach the build.

For the Boys.

Henry Ward Beecher says, l never saw
anybody do anything that | did not watch
him, and see how he did it, for there is no
telling but that some time | might have to do
it myself. ] was going across prairie once;
my horse began to limp. Luckily came
across blacksmith's shop, but the smith was
not at home. asked the woman Of the
house if she would allow me to start fire,
and make the shoe. She said might if l
knew how so | started fire and heated the
shoe red hot, and turned it to fit my horses
foot and pared the hoof, turned the points OF
the nails out cuuningly, as | had seen the
blacksmith do, so that in driving into the
hoof they should not 60 into the quick, and
shod the horse. AT the next place l went
to, l went straight to smith and told him to
put the shoe on properly. He looked at the
horses foot, and paid me the greatest com.
plment ever received in my life. He told
me if put on that shoe had better follow
blacksmiihing all my life. Now, ! never
should have known how to do this if had
not looked Oh, and seen others do it.

JOe's Lesson.

Joe was brave boy. He never knew
what fear meant-as far as other boys, or any
common danger, was concerned. BE was
FIRST 10 study, first in play, and not second
hest in work. He had a pleasant home, a
capital school-teacher, who would have told
you Joe was the best boy in doors or out.
What, then, is the matter with him now ?
For this surely is Joe and he isn't in his
mothers parlor tonight. No. be is in Jail /;
and, as he cannot 60 to her, she and Fanny
have gone to him. 1t was terrible shock
to poor Joe's mother when she learnt that he
had been arrested for stealing a ten-dollar
take the money! 1t was missed from the
drawer, and it was also proved that Joe chang
ed ten-dollar bill-a new, crisp greenback
at grocery in another part Of the town
the same night it was missing. The officers
believed Joe stole the money. Frank Nevi-
naugh was very certain Of it but Joe's moth
er and Fanny did not believe word of it.
They we're sure he told the truth but he had
been found in bad company, and laid himself
liable to be charged with anything which bad
boys may be accused of doing Joe had been
u ittlc tOO lcuTlchS- ne was uOt hlIulu VI
wine, and not afraid of boys who could smoke
and chew, and drink beer and cider. So one
night when five or six Of these boys we're to
have grand time, some one of them had ten.
dollar bill to be changed. One of them got
Joe to get it broken, and then all shared the
cigars, nuts and cider, with something lit.
tie Stronger for that once.) The bill was
missed. Frank Neviuaugh, who was in the
store, had heard boy say Joe changed a
bill at certain grocery. The bill was found
and Joe's plea that he changed it for Fred
Morlette FRANKS friend) did him no good
OF course Fred denied it, and Joe went to
Jail. He could have been very happy even
in Jail, knowing he was innocent of theft
had it not been for the wine-drinking and the
bad company and the disgrace they brought
When the trial came, Joe was cleared. but as
long as he lived he never forgor that week in
the Startled Jail. 1t was a hard lesson, but
Joe never again tasted wine or tobacco, and
avoided " bad company" as carefully as he
would shun an iron wolf-trap.
