Special to the Herald.
Denison, March l9.--Just about noon the
alarm of fire was heard and upon investga-
ton it was found to be house belonging to
J. M. Shecder, situated on Mirick avenue and
unoccupied at the time. The house was a
small one'story box building and was soon in
ashes. The cause of tho fire seemed to be
that some children set some corn husks on
fire that were in the house and being scared
they ran out and left little child about two
and half years old to perish in the flames.
It's body was recovered aftor the fire was
nearly out, but it was burned almost beyond
recognition as a human body. The name of
the child was Henrietta Wilson and she was
living with her grandmother in the adjoining
house, her mother being now in Parker
county. No other buildings were burned. Loss
about $500.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 10, 1880.
Politically, Washington was never SO much
of a Natioual centre as to-day. We here are
more fully informed than residents of any
other place of what is done politically, in all
parts of the country. 1t seems to be generally
beliened that on the Republican side, ex-Presi
dent Grant has improved his chances in the
last week, and on the Democratic side, that
Mr.. Tilden will have at Cincinnati more votes
on the first ballot than any other candidate.
There is also notable improvement of late
in the spirits of the third party politicians.
But while we note an improvement in the
chances of General Grant, cannot but notice
that the hostility against him in his party Is
growing more bitter. What he has gained in
other states does not repair the damage done
him in New York and Pennsylvania, and the
split and want of unanimity in his own State,
make his nomination at CHICAGO impossible.
The question now is, where will his strength
go to? 1t is now concluded that Blaine and
Sherman will get the bulk of it, and what
they don't get Edmunds will. Washburne is
virtually out of the contest, even as dark
horse. The Grant men dislike him because of
the damage done to them by his leaders in
Illinois, and he is in reality now, turning his
attention to securing the second place with
Blaine or Edmunds.
There is little doubt Of adjournment by the
3lst. The Senate will adopt the House reso-
luton, the appropriation bills will be passed
rapidly, and few other measures, such as the
bill approving the Ute agreement, and Con-
gress will adjourn. The Republican members
generally will go to Chicago, and the Demo-
Gratis go to their homes. 1 don't think the
public interests will suffer much from an early
adjournment. Legislation in the midst of an
exciting Presidential compaign, like that now
before us, is not likely to be of the most desir-
able sort.
A hundred thousand people will witness the
Hanlan- Courtney boat race at 4:30 this after
noon on the Potomac opposite this city. The
city is almost literally full of strangers. So
far the betting is in favor of Hanan, but
Courtney has made many friends while here.
II is said that 1000 Canadians are here. Wash
ington has had no such excitement since 1865.
In the excitement of the boat race, politics are
forgotten. Illinois State Convention meets
to-day, but 1t caused but little futter in polit-
ical circles, for at this hour politicians and
sports, alike are vending their way to the
River front, and your correspondent will follow
their example. By the way, the press reports
will be more interesting than the race itself.

eE- The barn of George B. Porter OF
the firm of Cresswell Il Porter OF Peters
burg, Huntington county, situated on
Warrior ridge, two miles from Petersburg,
together with its contents, consisting of
three hundred bushels Of wheat, lot OF
rye and oats, wagons, buggies, horse gears
and farm machinery, was totally consumed
by fre on Monday night. Six head of
valuable horses and ten head of cows and
cattle perished in the flames. The fire oc-
Cured about IL or 12 o'clock and is sup
posed TO have been the act of some person
or persons In pursuit of plunder, as Mr..
Porter had all his cured meats for summer
use stored away in the barn. The loss is
estimated at $20OJ on which there was no
insurance.
GB- Prior to her marriage with Mr..
Archibald Rogers, of New York, Miss
Annie q. Coleman, of Cornwall, filed
conveyance of all her real estate and iron
interests, excepting personal property,
iewelry, cash in hand, horses, carriages
and furniture, to her brother, Robert Cole
man, in trust to pay her certain amounts
as the income of her share in the estate, to
distribute the property in case Of her
death with heirs, and in case Of her death
without issue the whole to revert to the
trustee. The bridegroom's signature is
appending to the deed as agreeing never
to attempt any change in its terms.
az On Monday Of last week the grave
of William Blanford, buried in the Phil
anthropic cemetery, Philadelphia, was
opened for the purpose of removing the
remains to another cemetery. The body
was petrifled, and in an almost perfect
state of preservation. The clothing was
somewhat mouldy, and what was once
flesh had changed to q hard, stony sub
stance, resembling yellowish marble. The
eyes we're gone, the lips had partly disap-
peared and there was no hair on the head,
but otherwise the body was perfect. 1t
weighed almost five hundred pounds. Mrs.
Blanford died in February last, and was
buried near her husband whe was inferred
in June, 1874. Her body wss undergoing
the natural process Of decay.

the crowd were talking about lynching the
incendiary tramp whom they had caught.
Donovan, the big prize-fighter, stepped up
and said, "Be careful; this man may be
innocent" The mob cried, Hang them

right, come on. You can't mob this man
without putting me out of the way"
They didn't dare ''come on" and the
tramp was safely taken to Jail.

Two Fires at York.

York, Pa, May 2l.-This morning
at quarter before two o'clock an alarm
was sounded, and the extensive car
shops of Michael Schall, known as the
Empire car works, ON North Beaver
street, near the railroad, and opposite
the Variety iron works, were found to
be ablaze. The fire originated under the
office, above where a lot of oil was
stored, and no doubt was caused by
spontaneous combustion. In a short
time the interior of the main building,
which is about the hundred feet long,
was in flames, and the combustible mat
ter of the large amount of material
contained therein baffied the most de-
termined efforts of the firemen to subdue
