FIRE AT NEW CASTLE.

About eight O'Clock, yesterday morRing,
the large woollen mill of James G. Knowles
at New Castle, was totally destroyed hy
are, causing q loss of about $50, 900, with
but $4,000 insurance. The high winds
that prevailed at the time blew off the roof
of the mill and engine house. Sparks from
the engine set fire to the building and de-
spite the strenuous efforts OF the Good VIII
Fire Company and the citizens in general,
the building was laid in ruins.

Tuesday evening the tug John E. Mul

While above Claymont the storm struck
them and shortly afterward the hawser
parted and the two barges went adritt in
the darkness. In a few minutes thew

the morning were seen high and dry in

will be experienced getting them off

was sunk off Moore'> ship yard and is now
lying under the old barge Roauoak.
The loss of the different firms whose
property was visited by the storm will be
considerable. The P. w. & B. r. r. will
probably be the heaviest losers while that of
Pusey Jones & Co., will amount to several
thousand dollars dollars. The jackson
Sharp Company will lose about $500,
while E. Moore, Jr's. loss will amo mt to
$500. Farlan & Hollingsworth did NOT
suffer much. J B. Conrow will lose con-.
siderably while Walton & Bro. will sus~
tain heavy losses both by the failing of
their ice house on Vandever street and
other causes.

Card Of Thanks.

Lieut.. Edward Mcguire, Q. S. A.
Dear Sir: The board of management OF
the Woman's Christian Home, desire to con-
vey most sincere thanks to you, and to all
those who so kindly assisted you in giving.
for their benefit, the very delightful enter
tainment at the Opera house, on Friday
last.
Our gratitude will be. better appreciated
when tell you, that, at that time our Home
contained sixteen inmates and our treasury
held but forty-six cents. You will be glad
to know that the net receipts from your
entertainment were five hundred and seven
teen dollars and fifteen cents, ($517.15).
To your untiring personal efforts, we are
largely indebted for this gratifying result.
In behalf of the board, I am sir, yours
respectfully,

The ArnOrer,

/
It is no easy matter to put on the stage an
opera, with all it's accessories and appoint
ments, and produce it for the first time with
smoothness and without hitch. If this be
difficult with those to the manor born, how
much more SO is it to the unaccustomed
amateur? And yet last night :.Der Waffen
schmied' was produced at the Athenaum m.
with completeness of detail and an even
ness of representation seldom equalled. The
setting was excellent, the appointments and
dressing beyond all praise. Some of the
scenes were especially effective, notably the
opening one of the smithy with the armorers
| at work, and the Stadenger's court yard in
the third act.
Mr.. T. }. Giesen was excellent as the Ar
morer. Miss Emma Faber took immensely
as Marie, but we have heard her in much
better voice. Count Liebenau found q dig
nitied, graceful interpreter in Mr.. Albert
Scheffer; he was, however, not quite conf
dent in some of his solos. Mr. Frank Wer-
ner was very acceptable 'sGeorg,' although
one of his solos was not rendered in a style
equal to what might be expected of him.
'Adelhof' required a stronger voice than
that of Nh. B. Bear, but he made up for any
deficiency in this by a careful rem
dition and good acting. Too much
praise cannot be bestowed upon Miss r.
Brown as Irmentraut Her acting was
natural spirited and easy ; her Mobilization
careful and well studied. Mr.. f. M. Patten
made the most of the part of Bremen the
Tavern-keeper. In the choruses. the per
formances excelled unspeakably the majority
Of even first-class professional ones-the
orchestra (Seibert's) and the voices were
well together and nicely balanced.
Though the members on the whole were
so we'll rendered still it is but fair to point
out some of the most deserving. .sThe
Horrid Men, by Miss Brown would have
done credit to Miss Richings in her palmy
days. The trio in the first act Misses Faber
and Brown and Mr.. Scheffer was very effec-
tive, as was also the sextet in the second act,
'The opening chorus in the Vineyard (sec-
ond act) deserves all praise. Miss Faber's
Good night my dear beloved" in first act,
and Giesen's solo in the third act deserves
special notice.
As we have stated, the whole performance
was one of most commendable merit.
and of too much merit not to be repeated
again and again. But it would be
well in second performance if the pianist
should be a little more careful not to drown
the voices, and the other instruments. in
delicate passages. The prompter's voice,
too, is heard more than necessary; if he were
to speak in more subdued tones and calmer.
he would not confuse those on the stage,
and disturb the audience in the remotest
parts of the house.
But enough of fault finding. The per-
formance was in every respect so excellent,
the support, the scenery and all the surround
ings SO unusually good that we had almost
forgotten that we were reviewing an amateur
performance, but the best amateur perform
ance evef Eiven in this city.

A Setter Ca,. Find a Buyer.

It has been limited on both sides that
money was being used plentifully, but no
one was prepared for the startling denoue-
me1at Of Saturday. IT fell like thunderbolt
on the House. and for a time confusion
reigned supreme. If Brandt's story is true
it cannot be too deeply deplored, and the
twentieth session of the Minnesota Legisla-
ture is blackened page in our history. Mr..
Brandt's action is not by any means credit
able to him. The man who offers himself
for sale, in these days. is pretty apt to find a
buyer. We are not prepared to say that
Brandt's intentions were not good, but the
manner in which he accomplished his pur-
pose and the scene which followed the ex-
posure would rather indicate something be-
sides good faith.

FIRE DEPARrn1Enr ASSOCIATION.
An Earnest Appeal for the Attendance OF
It's Stakeholder Next TuesdaY.

An Earnest Appear ZOE Cne AGJGnUdnCe Oh
Its Stockholders Next Tuesday.
The St. Paul Fire Department association
and it's board of representatives would seem
to have upon their hands quite tropbOsome
elephant, in the form of an amendment to
the charter under which the association is
incorporated. This alteration has been ne
cessitated by the disarmament by the Com
mon Council of the various fire companies.
The constitution and bylaws, however, OF
the association, made up of those companies,
having no proviso for the amendment of the
charter, it has been declared by legal author
ity that such amendment would, therefore,
come under the general statute, which pro-
vides that no amendment to the charter of
any such association can be binding unless
voted upon bya majority of the whole of the
stockholders. 1t is right there that the ele-
plant comes in, it being found apparently
impossible to collect that required majority.
although almost weekly meetings have been
held for the consideration of the amended
charter, and action thereon.
Last night was no exception. An adj
journed meeting of the board of representa-
tives and of the association assembled at
1880 p. m. in the hook and ladder house, un-
der the craftsmanship Of John Lunken-
heimer, the president. The board had no
quorum present, and adjourned until the
first Monday in April, that being the date of
the next regular meeting of that body. The
association, for the want of a majority of the
members, and after some discussion as to the
matter, and as to when payment of dues was
necessary to constitute good standing, adj
journed until Tuesday next, Feb. 26, and di-
rected the secretary to give official notifca-
ton of the same
A GLOBE representative, who has been the
sole member of the daily press present at
these meetings, has thus been explicit con-
corning the object of these meetings in the
hope that the requisite number may be pres
ent on Tuesday night. It should also be
carried in memory by the members of the
association that the whole financial status of
their society hinges upon the amendment of
the charter, and that the sooner it is salts
factorily and legally accomplished the better
it will be for all concerned. II is not a mat
ter that brooks of much further delay.
