A DAILY AT WASHINGTON, Pave
have been receiving the Washington
Etening Reportr for several days, and
we Judge from the issue Of Friday that ii
expects to continue its experiment az a
daily, having received sufficient encotir-
agcment from The citizens Of that place
to enable il to go on with considerable
assurance Of success. This is the second
time that the Reporter has cssaycd an adj
vance upon its once week edition. Its
first experiment was n semi-weekly,
which it soon abandoned, for the reason
that its country readers were satisfied
with weekly paper, and its town
readers, in case Of any change at all,
wanted daily. And 80 tho daily has
appearcl-a little affair to be sure, but
let no one despisG the day Of small
things, remembering that tall oaks FROM
little acorns grow, and that "all big men
like you and me had once TO learn their
ABC." II the experiment is tiny and
modest, so also is 'the price. only six
cents week, at which price certainly
most everybody interested in Washing

In the matter Of the advertisement for
"lettings" Of tho Bellaire & Southwestern
railway, justice TO Secretary Anderson
demands that should exonerate him
from the responsibility III any attaches)
Of his directing its publication In the
Register. 1t was handed by myself to the
reporter Of the Re9ister on his making
the usual inquiry Of, "any news about the
narrow gauge7" It-would have been
handed Just rs promptly andas cheerfully
to the reporter for the IsTELLIoENcER, 4
he had been making similar inquiries.
I am not aware, however, that he ever
called at our office for information. But
acknowledging our Indebtedness for the
many kind words Of encouragement given
to our enterprise by the 1HTELIhENcER,
we should not have waited to be remind.
ed Of what was due TO you, in comfy had
not other duties, at the time, pushed aside
the matter Of advertising. The duty Of
advertising properly belonged to the
engineer and only fell upon our office, by
his absence ont upon the line.
To guard against future injurious i'm.
pressions II may be well to say that in a
board consisting Of four Republicans to
three Democrats, there il not much
danger Of Democratic influence controlly

Another Iucendiarv Fire.

Another ineendiary fire occurred this
afternoon, and came very near destroying
whole block About o'clock flames
were seen issuing from the barn of the
late Mrs. M. A. Swiler. on Second Ave
nue. between Eleventh and Twelfth streets.
The strong winds soon had the building
in perfect mass of fame, and the FIRE
communicated to the ice house of Hull &
Barker, on the west, which was soon de-
stroyed The fire communicated to the
kitchen of the house. Mr.. j. Kiska-
den and another person fought this fire
fully ten minutes before another person
arrived, or the hose companies were on
the ground. Wide Awake Co. was first on
the ground, Phoenix second, Third Ward
Co. third.
The barn and ice house were entirely
destroyed. The fire caught in barn be-
longing to Mrs. Seidel, across the alley.
but was extinguished; aud several houses
on Second avenue up to Twelfth street
caught on fire from sparks but we're put
out with bucket of water or two.
The loss Oh the ice house, which was
nearly new, Mr.. Barker estimates at
500. 1t had been insured for $500 but
the policy had expired The barn was in
sured for 500 in the Hartford Insurance
Co., of Hartford, Conn, and the house
hold furniture, which was somewhat injur-
ed in its hasty removal was insured for
$500 in the Franklin Insurance Co., OF
Philadelphia, j. Nj. Bufords agency.
The house was also insured in the Hart
ford. same agency.
