FIRE ALARM.
Two children Badly Burned.

Yesterday evening, about 1880, the I'M
welcome sound of the fire bells aroused
our citizens, many of whom could have
been seen rushing down Prince aud Gay
streets. We soon learned, however, that
the fire had been extinguished, and on ar
irving at the residence of Policeman Jas.
Mason, where the fire had been, we
learned the following particulars as to the
accident and the damages done:
1t seems that Mrs. Mason had just filled
her lamp with coal oil and lighted IT,
while two of her children--a little girl about
or years old and little boy about or
years old-were playing near the fire place,
aud had not removed the oil can, when
fire communicated from the outside of the
lamp down to her hand, and commenced
to burn her. She made an attempt to blow
it out, but with the only effect of increas-
ing the flame, and soon her whole arm was
on fire. The children seeing this rushed
towards their mother, and it is supposed
kicked over the oil can, spilling the oil
over the floor. She becoming alarmed
attempted to throw the lamp in the fire
place, and in this attempt she presumes
split some of the oil on the children. The
lamp fell short and soon the floor was
ablaze in two or three different places,
oNLiC Vi IhC llS W Tie
children and burning them pretty badly.
Mrs. Mason Immediately wrapped a
blanket around one of the child
rem, while she wrapped her own
dress around the other, and then rushed
out after some water. The fire was extin-
gnished before any of the fire companies
reached the ground, although all of them
turned out promptly. The members of
Fire Company No. 4, having charge of the
Reliance" took charge Of the Heck and
Ladder apparatus, their engine being at
the shop, undergoing repairs.
On examination, it turned out that the
little girl was slightly burned in her face,
and pretty badly on her thighs, down to
below her knees, while the boy was SINH.
larly burned, with the exception of the
face. Neighbors near by applied all the
usual household remedies, while some one
went after DR.. Rogers, who, on arriving,
did everything that could be done for the
little sufferers, and trust that their injuries,
although painful, will not prove serious

corn market. The trade continues rather dull,
Notwithstanding that considerable amount has
been offered and some purchases were mad
during the past week, Corn seems to be on q
downward tendency.
EGGs-The trade in eggs is becoming rather
dull, the weather being too warm for shipping
purposes. They have continued to decline, and
no transactions are made above 10a11 cents
BACoN--The bacon trade is very good at press
ent and all that is offered is readily taken at
quotations. We quote it firm and in demand

seed show downward tendency, but with pres

to remain at present figures.

The Cost OF Producing Gas.

The Baltimore Gazette says report has
recently been published in Worcester,
Massachusetts,, which furnishes some tan
gible as well as interesting data bearing
upon the above question. The report,
which was unwillingly made by the gas
company of the above city, shows its gross
Sl70,99l, and its expenses SlO7 ,Sl3, leaving
q, clear profit of $63, us, or "a per cent. Of
the gross sales. The actual cost of produce
ing, 1000 feet Of gas in Worcester is 81. 20.
Dedueting returns by sale of coke and
waste products, and the cost is reduced to
SIZE thousand feet.

How DO You Like That?

For the last week or so, we understand,
some parties have made themselves busy
spreading the report that John Lichten-
wanger had the small pox, with the hope
OF driving away some of his customers,
and partially succeeded in few instances,
however not without the duped parties
discovering that they had been dishonest
ly dealt with, Now Mr.. Lichtenwanger
desires US to say to his old customers and
tQthe public generally that he has not got
the small pox himself, nor has any one In
his employ been afflicted with it, and as
they are not exposed any more than any
other citizen of Knoxville, they have
no special fear of ever being
afflicted in that way AT any rate it will
be perfectly safe for the public to continue
their patronage until they see the yellow
flag in front of his door.
To those whose business is so dull as to
give them plenty of time to spread such
unfounded reports, he desires us to say,
that they are wasting their time, for the
public is sure to see through such con-
temptible tricks, and as a matter of course
his trade is as good as ever.

1t was the understanding of the Exc Gu
tive Committee that all these Chairmen,
of the different counties would be required,
at once, to associate with them active and
energetic men from each civil district in
the county. l would respectfully suggest,
therefore, that the chairmen organize at
once, call their respective committees to-
gether, and get ready for work. In due
time circular letter will be sent to them,
setting forth their duties, &c.
In conclusion would state that the next
meeting of the organization will take place
in Knoxville on the 2Sth day of May at 2
O'Clock, at which time we hope there will
be large and enthusiastic attendance of
ali the members and of all the committees
Let us bear in mind that we are now en-
tering upon no common work. By this
movement We can do more to advertise
East Tennessee than by any other con-
ceivable method.
Again l must ask all the papers of East
Tennessee, especially, to publish the above.

distinguished compliment by declaring
that it was the only State that had initia-

RETURN OLE STAPLES.
Re-eaptured at Dalton by Chief Marshal
Claiborne and Cole,

On Sunday last Edward Staples, the
| colored financier who has been dealing in
Judge Browns uncurrent funds, returned
to Knoxville in the custody of Chief
Marshal Claiborne and First Assistant
Cole, they having re>captured him at Dali
ton, after he had three times escaped from
custody since his first arrest, first from
Policeman Ashe, next fromlthe Huntsville
calaboose and last from Policeman Cain.
after he had started back in his custody
from the latter place.
STAPLES STORY.
Staples says that Cain was drunk the
greater part of the time and cursed and
abused him shamefully, going so far as to
attempt to strike him. but in this he was
prevented by parties standing by. When
they got on the train both had whisky and
drank together and also separately Cain
was finally overcome by his potations, he
says, and went to sleep, perceiving which,
Staples pulled his leg irons Off and on the
train arriving at n small station where it
stopped half an hour, he went out on the
platform and left. He had the irons in
his hand and dropped them in puddle of
water; walking on he soon after came to
country blacksmith shop, where he got his
handouts taken off. He then proceeded
to Chattanooga and from thence to Dalton,
where he was arrested on Sunday morn
ing by officers Claiborne and Cole, as be-
fore stated.
HOW STAPLES WAS CAUGHT.
On Saturday letter was received by
Staples wife, in this city, telling her he
would be at Dalton until Monday, and for
her to join him at that place. The police
received information of the fact, and ON
that night Messrs. Claiborne and Cole set
out for that place with the necessary au~
thority to bring him back with them.
They arrived at Dalton at six o'clock,
and before getting out of the car Cole saw
the fellow in the window of barber shop
near the depot and at once recognized him.
They got out and sauntered over to the
house, when Staples remembering that
the 'early bird caught the early
worm," asked them in to be shaved.
The officers were disguised so thoroughly
that neither were recognized and
Staples was intensely astonished when
told that he must accompany them
back to Knoxville. However when Mr.,
Claiborne detached pair false eyebrows
and Cole removed the sable hue from his
whiskers and showed his uniform he
wilted and in fifteen minutes was aboard
the train in secure bonds reaching here at
noon, the officers having been absent Just
twelve hours. They managed the case
splendidly and evinced a wide awake
spirit that speaks well for their zeal and
efficiency.

The drug trade continues active with heavy
sales and firm prices. The high price of gold is
affecting some goods, and we notice a decided
advance in Iodine, Iodide Potassium and all the
preparations of Iodine. Mercurial preparation,
owing to the high price of Mercury, have ad ;
vanccd. Linseed Oil is gradually advancing
and will cause, we have no doubt correspond
ing advance in White Lead. So many goods
in the drug line are influenced and controlled
by the premium on gold that so long as gold is
at its present figures, firm and advancing prices
for drugs may be looked for.

Cooperative.

The Chattanooga Times learns that the
operatives employed at the Roane Iron
Company's works are about to organize a
cooperative association with a view to
opening store, the profits of which will
be divided among the share holders, all of
whom will be laborers and artisans en-
ployed at these mills. This is a move in
the right direction, and with the number
OF wei! paid hands in an established con-
Germ like the Roane Mills ought to succeed
without difficulty.
