4 most disastrous fire occurred yesterday
morning, on the premises of Thomas u.
Lyman, situated about one mile north Of
Newport, upon the Folly Woods road, re-
sulting in the demolition of three barns to
gether with their entire contents, consisting
of six horses, two pigs, twenty head OF
cattle, three hundred bushels of wheat, SIX
hundred bushels of corn, sixty tons Of hay,
six or eight tons Of straw and nearly oil the
farming implements. The main barn was
new Structure, having only been built Que
year, and was regarded - the most com.
plete of any In the county. Dimensions
go by 70 feet. The other barns we're OF
smaller capacity. The hre was not dis.
covered by the occupants Of the farm uD-
til the flames had made such progress 81
to prevent them from going to the succor
of the live stock. Mr.. Lyman says that ct
about half-past three he was awakened,
only to hnd the devouring elements had
utter possession Of the largest barn. With
all speed he made haste to the rescue Of the
horses and cattle confined therein, but 1t
was too late. Upon opening the doors
volumes Of flame and smoke were emitted,
and the horse nearest the door was seen to
drop, and writhe iD his death agony. Five
other horses and twenty head OF cattle far-
ther In the interior had already succumbsd.
Mr.. Lyman then succeeded in rescuing four
or five head of dry cows from the barnysrd, !,
together with three horses stabbed tp'one OF
the smaller buildings. He was then COM
PEELED to allow the flames to take their
course, and not until they had licked every.
thing in their pathway clean, did they suoslde'
Many visited the ruins yesterday from
Wilmington. There, may be seen emolder'
ing heaps Of corn and wheat, and skeletons
OF the horses and cattle that perished. II
tho immediate vicinity ofthe burnt butlding'
are Q, acks Of sl-aw and fodder. 10 cios'
connection with them is string OF building
some OF which are In near proximity to I'M
farm houes. Had it not been Tor the lac
that strong northeast wind was BLOWN!
? 1t the time Of the confsgration, the result
would have probably been more disasteroua
The damage is estimated by Mr.. Lyman q
about $4,000. He could not speak con
6dently in regard to the amount Of 10

BENNETT, MAY 4 CO.

Apocryphal Letter from DR.. Nay.
Seconds Reported Ind19nant..-noI
Evidence.
From the N. Y. Sun Of Yesterday.
There was q report yesterday that the
Junior member of = prominent Wall street
banking frm had received letter from DR..
May containing this sentence: "Frederick 10
doing well considering the painful wound
he received"
The story IL again revived that the (more
or less) wounded duelist 10 at the shooting
box of . friend, = few miles out Of Dalti-
more. -
4 still more improbable story represents
Mays seconds In state Of acute indigns-
tion over an alleged infraction of the code
by Mr.. Bennett, who, instead Of resting the
elbow of the pistol arm on the right hip,
actually raised his arm and took aim. 1t ID
very safe to disbelieve all these stories.
DR.. Charles Phelps kept bis promise to sp-
pear before the Grand Jury. He was In
their presence about ten minutes yesterday.
The questions were again put to him. he
again refused to answer, and read docu-
ment which his counsel had prepared, put
ting bis action on the ground that the ten
deucy of answering would be to subject
himself to q criminal prosecution. He then
waited in the General Sessions court room
an hour, expecting that the Grand Jury
would 70 there and report to Judge Glider
sleeve. For some unexplained reason they
did not communicate with his Honor. Pro-
badly they will do 20 to-day, when DR..
Phelps will be formally discharged.
The doctor was the only duel witness
before the Grand Jury yesterday. and It now
seems likely that tbe investigation, blocked
a. it is BY the decision in the doctors case
will be dropped. As everybody who saw
the fight can avail himself of the same
privilege, the prospect for getting together
enough evidence to justify an Indictment ID
not fattering. District Attorney Phelps
SAYS he has not abandoned the case, how
ever.
BAtr1xoas, Jan. 16.-The reported death
of Fred May is positively denied here, hie
friends reiterating that Bennett's bullet did
not come within . rod Of him. But the
same persons, who doubtless know oil about
the matter, refuse to reveal Mays place OF
conceslment. Our Baltimore DR.. May has
not been seen here since tho second night
after the duel, when he returned for few
hours to his elegant house In Mount Vernon
place. It is believed Fred May accompanied
him,

and Goth, In his now comedy, "Ferbidden
Fruit" The "Clevelsnd Leader speaks
concerning this piece - follows:
The latest production of Mr.. Dion Douci-
csult in the dramatic line, " Forbidden
Fruit" was presented oil last week ct this
theatre. It 10 said to be An adaptation or
translation from the French, statement,
Of which If fearmarks 20 for anything, there
can be little doubt. The story is simple,
natural and excessively funny. The sttua-
tions are oil wo 'ked up in the most artistic
manner, and the text is bright and witty.
Throughout It shows the handiwork OF the
skilled writer and playwright. o.
Tho subject of the plot which turnl ON
certain peculiar phases of "fast life" In
town is one that requires careful handling
to make 1t acceptable to all. This, however,
forbidden Fruit" has received. The
climaxes are brought about in sueh
lively and likely manner the movements
and motives Of each science arc 20 proba-
bio that all effort to give matters spicy
flavor 10 conspicuous BY ito absence. ~
moral, moreover, 10 q, good one, althonsA
told In . moro than unusually interesting
style.
No description, however, could do credit
to the Infinite variety of point and situa-
tion in this superior comedy. Every scens
10 filed with them, and the last Of the three
acts is such Q constant successi0n Of sur'
prises that they fairly tread on each others
heels.
The play, besides ito Inherent excellence,
has another claim in the superiority OF 10
performers. Every one Of the cast seems
especially suited for his part. The natural
result, therefore. il IN ensemble that glvcs
the piece as nearly perfect @rendi:ion q y
possible. It Is rare, indeed, that the gen.
ersl tone of excellence In company 20

4 Word to Democrats.

THoRNvILLE, o., Sep. %, 1877.
ED~ PREss:-I have been voting
the Democratic ticket for forty one
years, and not only voted it, but stood
by the party in times of trial. l am
one of the few who during the war
dared speak their sentiments. [ am
one Of the men who was threatened to
be mobbed by just such men as L. J.
jackson. In 1861, while in the store
of I. B. Cox, in company with DR..
Magruder, John P. Wilson, John Lii
dey, I. B. Cox, George Dittoe, R. S.
Cox, and several others, We received
the news from New Lexington that
L. J. Jackson had made an attempt
to have number of Democrats indict-
ed for treason before the Grand Jury.
/ am one of the number who in 1861
saved the Democratic Union office
from being mobbed by L. J. Jackson's
company.
] was in New Lexington the day
poor McCarty was thrown in jail like
a dog for no cause under Gods heav-
ems but expressing his opinion, and he
afterwards died from the treatment.
I met J. j. johnson and Theodore
Ogie, and asked them who had it done?
They both replied, L. J. Jackson.
By trickery L. j. jackson secured
the nomination for Senator, and now
asks us to support him. There is not
drop of Democratic blood in his
body. The county and district are
Democratic which is the cause of his
being on that side. In conclusion I
will say, never will cast ballot for
/. j. Jackson for any office.
A TRUE DEMOCRAT.

The Republican Meeting.

Last Thursday evening the Republicans
of Somerset held meeting in the town hall
Gen. Geo. A. Sheridan addressed the meet
ting. His re marks on the finances of the
country amounted to simply nothing. He
did not mention the Resumption Act as he
concluded it very delicate question. The
people of this state don't want any half way
hard money men. The time has come when
all must take one side or the other. Gen.
Sheridan's speech did not strengthen the
party here. The greenback Republicans are
q going to vote the laboringman's ticket and
the speech made them loose all confidence
in the Republican party.

Somerset, Ohio, were admitted to the Bar
last evening. Mr.. Finck, "a son of Hon.

and we predict for both of the gentlemen a
bright future. -ZanesuiIte Daily Times.
Success to these gentlemen. Somerset
has just cause to be proud of them, and
we feel assured that they will never be
satisfied until they are classed among the
first of their profession and they have the
