Fire Near Dover.

Yesterday afternoon, the large barn
upon the Ennis farm, near Dover, was
destroyed by fire. There were 1900
bundles of blade fodder and also 400
bushels Of corn which had just L"en
slelled, destroyed. The origin of the
fire resulted from the carelesness OF
some boys who had started to burn some
brush seme distance from the buiil ling
For some reason they left the spot, and
the sparks getting in the rank grass and
igniting it, caused the grass to burst
forth in saeet Of flames which travel
ed before the wind with considerable
rapidity. In its course ran a road; but
owing to the underground on the oppo-
site side, the flames crossed this and
made for the building above mentioned.
A colored man seeing the danger under
.ook to avert it bat of no avail. After
the fire had surrounded the barn and
enveloped it its fury was spent, and
the destructive element subsided with
out doing further damage.

Bible Class Presentation.

The class OF Robert p. Carey, a teach
er in the Household of Faith Bible
school, had intended to give bin sur
prise..on his birthday, but in.consequence
of the death of his two children they
deferred the visit. Last evening the
class assembled at tile residence of Mrs.
Davis, on Tatnall street near Fourth,
from which place they proceeded to
their teachers home at Third and Mad
ison streets. Miss Mamie Elliott, in q
very neat speech presented Mr.. Carey
on behalf OF his class, with handsome
wax cross enclosed in large glass vase.
The recipient was taken by surprise
and returned his thanks for the gift.
The evening was spent in social inter
course and music. Refreshments were
served, and when the hour of departure
had arrived all expressed themselves
pleased with the enjoyment which the
occasion afforded.

The Ladies Aid "BGum. :"

The Ladies Aid Of the Moral Suasion
Reform Association, will hold another
Of those very entertaining Mum"
sOciables in the Hall Third and King
streets, tomorrow (Thursday evening.
These mum" sociables have been made
very entertaining and spicy and thA
one in contemplation will be Io eH
ception to those already held.
Those who really think they cannot
keep ''mum" during the evening, can
purchase an indulgence ticket for q
"quar;er," which will allow them to
be little "chatty," il they feel like it,
but those who expect TO go and remain
quiet all the time had better take a
pocket full Of five cent nickels with
them, as a proper security against easily
excited risibilities. Any quantity OF
apples, cakes, and othei substantial
refreshments will b. provided, and q
pleasant evening is promised those who
attend, as the ladies have prepared a
fine programme. 1t is hoped that the
hall will be crowded on this occasion, as
the object is charity, and the unselfsh
devotion and earnest zeal, which these
ladies have always exhibited in the
temperance work, merits and should re-
ceive the encouragement of all lovers Of
humanity. Admission 10 cents, in
Guiding refreshments. sa.

Why Theatres are Wanied.

FROM the North American.
If man in his collective as well as in
his individual capacity needs to be
amused, to laugh, in fact to range up
and down through the gamut of emo
ton, then the theatre has its function
among civilizing influences. In no
other way can crowd of people seek
ing relief from plodding and earking
cares find it so surely as in the circle
where the masters of comedy preside.
The man who never laughs is like a
smouldering fire. The moment comes
when nature revenges ITSELF and pas
sion consumes its own altar. The grim
ascetic has no place in these times. He
is an anachronism. The gloom that
could be felt in the religious atmos
piere of the old time has been chased
away by the sunshine of Christian life.
Let us be glad that length of face and
immobility of features no longer mea-
sure Christian deserving. Let us use
the Theatre, but not abuse it.

The Camden .EI ectiOn

There was an election in Camden
yesterday. A City Assessor and ward
officers were voted for. A remarkably
light vote was polled. There is no city
telegraph system in Camden, and the
Eighth ward is as far removed from
the First as giratfe's head is from its
tail. About sun up this morning the
returns probably will be all in. At a
late hour last night the Indications
were that Bolgiano, the present Asses
sor and Republican candidate, had been
defeated by Ward, the Democratic can
didate. So close did the contest look, ,
however, that the odds were of little
account and only gave opportunities
for guessing. For Council in the First
ward McAllister, Republican, claims
from 100 to $50 majority; Second ward,
Michellon, Republican, from 175 TO
$50; Third ward, Mills, Democrat, so
plurality; Fourth ward, Milliette, Re-
publican, from 100 to l75: Fifth ward,
Francis, Democrat, from $50 to l7J;
Sixth ward, Dougherty, Democrat, from
10 to rs; Seventh ward, Worrell, Re-
publican, from 25 to IS; Eighth ward,
Smith, Republican, from rs to IS plu-
rality.
The Republicans elected the majority
of their candidates for the Board of
Education. Neither party had much
cash to spend for votes, and conss-
quently great many citizens did not
vote.

1.sdiss Aid Temper rance Meestnx
The Ladies Aid connected with the
Moral SuAsion Reform Association held
very large and enthusiastic meeting
last evening In the NJ. s. X. A. room,
Ihird aud King strests. Every avail
able seat was occupied and even stand.
Ing room was at a discount. As the
people entered the room they were
struck at the great changes which had
been mads through the agency Of the
ladies. The musty walls and ceiling
had been made fresh and beautiful by
fresh coat Of Kalsomine. The walls
had been made light blue tinted col
or and the ceiling was finished q light
straw color. The windows fronting on
King street had been hung with pretty
looped lace curtains, and those on
Third street with handsome brown pa.
per curtains. The floor had been cleanly
scrubbed and notices were posted
around the room requesting gentlemen
not to spit upon the floor.
AT a quarter before eight O'Clock,
Miss A. X. Tatman, President of the
Ladies Aid, with the other officers OF
the association, took seats upon the
platform. The meeting being called to
order the M. s. X. A. choir rendered a
voluntary, a portion Of scripture was
read, and Rev.J. b. Mann led in prayer.
After more music by the choir Rev. J..
b. Mann was introduced az the frs.
and main speaker of the evening. He
successfully showed that to succeed in
the Temperance work, the sale of in
toxicating liquors had to be made so
unpopular and disgraceful that no re-
spectacle man could engage in it. His
dennnciations of the liquor traffic met a
harty response from the audience, and
he heartily commended the ladies for
the work they had done. His remarks
were also full Of encouragement TO the
members of the NJ. s. X. A. who have
showed their fidelity to the cause of
Temperance by keeping their pledges
and standing up for the cause of TEN.
perance.
The presiding officer of the meeting
noticing miniature ship suspended on
a wire above his head, and drawn by a
tug named the M. 3. X. A. Temperance
Tug, made a pleasant allusion to it and
requested all the uncles and the aunts
and cousins of the Temperance cause to
get on board the old Temperance ship.
This allusion was very appropriately
followed by Mr.. Ellwood Hill singing
as solo, ''Pull for the Shore" the
choir and audience joining in the cho-
rus.
Miss Florence Hollingsworth read an
essay on the evils of intem-
perance, in manner that showed great
care in its preparation. The manner
Of reading the essay was creditable to
Miss II. as an elocutionist and q public
spssker.
Mr.. X. c. Crawford being in the au-
iience came forward at the request of
the President, and made an earnest
after which the doxology was
sung, and Rev. J. b. Mann pronoun ced
he bsnediction.

Del, and son of Hon. G. p. Fisher had
hearing in Philadelphia before Mag
istrate Pole, on the charge Of stealing a

He is the same man who was ares
ted last fall as the accomplice of two
men named Brown and Smith in the
