istry at the Richmond High-School, in COM
pany with Superintendent Peay, took his
chemistry class out to Richmond College,
where they enjoyed number OF interesting
experiments by Professor Winston with his
fine physical apparatus, which was displayed
to great advantage. DR.. Curry's mummy
was also exhibited, and the Coroner viewed
it with satisfaction, but deemed an inquest
unnecessary, and grieyed not little because
1t was out Of bis, iurisdiction-iust beyond
the corporate limits. ,

= CITY ALMsHoUsE.-The cost per capita
for the support Of the inmates at the city
a1mshouse during the past year was S11S.53,
being $24.16 less than for the preceding
year. The amount paid out by this depart
ment for subsistence during the year was
50, ,SS9.16. making the cost for feeding each
inmate 1888, which is $3.50 less than the
preceding year. Eighty-two tramps were
entertained at the almshouse during the
year against 153 last year. Those not dis
abled were required to cut one quarter OF
a cord OF wood for each meal furnished
them. The report pays fitting tribute to
the death Of Captain William English,
which occurred during the past year. To
the outdoor poor $3.50 bushels and 19s
pounds of meal have been issued during
the year, and 1,0363 cords of wood and l,765
bushels of coke. The accident ambulance
rendered aid to 214 persons.

FIRE IN LOMBARD ALLEY.-Yesterday
morning about O'Clock fire was discovered
in the collar-factory j. j. Wright and NJ. F.
| Hudnall, located in Lombard alley between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth and Main and
Cary streets. It was some time before any
one could be found who had 4 key to the
firm-alarm stations, and the fire therefore
made considerable headway. An alarm,
however, was finally turned in at Station 13,
at the Dispatch corner, and in a very brief
period Companies G., A, +, b. c, and D
were on the ground and ready for work.
Several streams were put upon the building,
and the fire was soon under control, although
it burned very rapidly, from the fact that
there was considerable quantity OF straw
in the house, kept for packing purposes.
The loss upon the building amounts to about
$1,000. There was nota large stock OF goods
on hand, and consequently the loss of
neither Mr.. Wright nor Mr.. Hudnall will
be heavy, and is fully covered by insuIa
anee In the Richmond Banking and In
surance Company. The origin Of the tire
has not been definitely ascertained. The
building was owned by Mr.. Hudnall, and
was insured in the City Fire Insurance
Company OF Richmond.
Just as the men were reeliBg up their
hose and getting ready to go back to the
engiae-houses an alarm was turned in at
Station 90, corner Twenty fifth and Main
streets. To this alarm Company T {Church
Hill steamer) responded with great prompt
ness, and the fire, which was at q. Sarodps
grocery. &C., No. 2411 Main street, and Of q
trifing character, was soon extinguished.
The fire burned small hole in the floor,
and was caused by a stoye-pipe. Damage,
