Yesterdays FIRE.
At about $50 O'Clock yesterday morning,
the alarm of fire broke upon the stiffness
and quiet of the Sabbath day, and soon peo-
pie were seen hurrying to and fro to ascer-
tain the cause of the alarm. A dense vol
ume of smoke arising from the State prison
yard clearly indicated where the trouble was,
and thence, as in duty bound, the reporter
fastened. There was no time to take items,
however, for on arriving on the grounds we
were Immediately ordered on duty, and for
about an hour aud half there
was the iveliest and wettest time
we ever saw. The facts gathered after
the fire was subdued, are as follows: The
services in the prison chapel had closed and
the prisoners were on their way to the cells
when the fire alarm was given in the yard.
The fire was found to have started in the
boiler room, and was, by the suction of the
blower, drawn into the sawdust and shaving
conductor which runs through the buildings
under the ceiling of the first story and along
the outside of the planning building. Under
the direction of Major Elwood, all the
hydrants in the enclosure were at once
brought into play; holes were cut
at certain intervals into the sides of
the conductors, and the streams of
water sent in to extinguish the fire. The
steamer and hose cart arrived in a few min
utes after the city alarm had been given,
and at once went to work with will, until
all danger was past. Altogether it was a
narrow escape from serious loss to the
State and the contractors, and it is owing
chiefly to the excellent and thorough water
facilities in the yard and in the buildings,
that no greater damage was done. MI. Sa-
bin thinks that about $500 will cover all
damages.

Death of Young Girl OF Lancaster,
Pa, from q Dog Bite Recetged in
June Last.
Lancaster Pa, Special, Aug. 8.
One of the most distressing cases of death
from hydrophobia occurred here last night,
the victim being Annie, a bright and intelli-
gent little s-year-old daughter of John
Booth, resident of this city. The eircum-
stances attending the case are about as fol-
lows: On June II last, Annie, in company
with two other children of about the same
age, were sent to the farm house of John
Weaver, a neighbor, for some milk. An or
binary house dog was chained in the yard,
and, knowing nothing of the fact that the
dog had been acting strangely for several
DAYS prior to this, Annie went close to the
animal, when it jumped at her, biting her on
the wrist, making an ugly wound. Luckily
the other children were not near enough to
be bitten by the brute. The little girl was
taken home at once, and the wound received
medical attention. Mr.. Booth, the father of
Annie, was notified of the strange actions of
the dog on the day the child was bitten, and
at once became anxious as to the result of
the wound. He visited the farm of Weaver

after the occurrence, and was
found the next day dead. DR.. Warren at
tended the little sufferer, and told the par
ents that if the dog had drank on the day he
bit the child this fact would go to prove that
the dog was not effected with hydrophobIa
Weaver was visited, and said the dog had
taken his regular food, and drank water on
the above date. This quieted the fears of Mr..
Booth somewhat However, the child suf-
fered great pain in her wrist; otherwise she
did not complain. On Saturday last she was
found by her parents lying asleep in the
entry of the house. She had high fever.
This remained with her until yesterday
morning. About 8 she came in the same
entry, gave one scream, and fell to the floor
insensible. She was placed on a eofa by
her mother. At this time the child would
snap at those present, and make noise
similar to the barking of dog. Several
physicians were called in, but nothing could
be done to alleviate the suffering of the
child. When they tried to give her medi-
cine she would bite at the teaspoon. The
sight of water or the shake of a handker-
chief would throw her into violent spasms.
She was sensi BILE to the last and knew what
was transporting, telling those around her
that she had been bitten by mad dog. Her
sufferiDgs continued to the last, her death
occurring in one of the spasms. The ac-

The Republican papers complain that
Gen. Hancock S published letters do not re-
veal that craftsmanship requisite in the chief
magistrate of the republic. Perhaps they are
right, yet their own candidate doesn't seem
to be blessed with supsrfuous amount of
craftsmanship, if We may judge by the
speeches made while hippodroming through
New York State last week. Called upon for
speech at Batavia he gave forth these
chunks of wisdom and craftsmanship:
Fellow citizens: cannot talk much to you
this morning, but want to say to you that
am glad to see that here in Batavia you are
early risers. 1t is early rising that has made
us what we are as people, and it is early ris-
ing that will carry the November election. Fell
low citizens, / thank you for your hearty well
come.
If any doubt as to Garfeld's statesman
ship existed before. it will be dissipated by
a perusal of these words that dropped like
honey from his lips. A man who regards
early rising as the creation of the people is
surely qualified to administer the sfairs of a
crest nation.

CHICAGO, Aug. S-Most extensive prepare
tions have already been completed for the
comfort and pleasure of the Knights Tenn
plars, who will visit this city next week.
The returns for the week have confirmed
the estimate that there will be present at the
conclave forty thousand or more Templars,
which heretofore has been regarded as a
merely speculative calculation. The same
evidences sustain the assertion that there
will be in the neighborhood of 100000 visit
ors and sightseers who will witness and par
ticipate in the general enjoyment the tri-
enniaI affords. 1t is pleasant to state that
the Sir Knights alone will be accompanied
by at least 200 ladies. Up to date the
finance committee report total collections to
the amount of between $65, 900 and $4,000.
1t is believed that the remainder needed to
make up the amount required, $125, 600,
will be subscribed beyond any question of
doubt. During the week past quarters were
assigned to 267 Communicates by the hotel
