DEAR SIR,

- NHS@N AN CAo LII AE
about 8 O'Clock p. m. our quiet little town
was alarmed by the cry of fire, which orr.
ginated on the property belonging to- Mr..
JAMES STEVENSON Jr. situated in Prind-
~SenSgade,
The cause OF the fire is vet unknown as
no one is able to give any calculations
the oWner and his wife being OUT at the
time, and the house closed, The main
building on the property was speedily
consumed Dy the flames, in spite of the
most interchangeable exertiOnS on the part
OF the fi~re-btigade; fortunately however,
Trey succeeded III warding off the danger
which threatened the circumiacent houses.
Too much praise cannot be Iavished
upon the conduct of the Br~and.corps;
directed as the men were, by efficient
officers, they laboured with right good will
in spite Of the intense heat and smoke
which threatened Suff0catiOn on acc int of
the narrownesS of the street.
TO the women OF our town, we must also
publicly tender our thanks in behalf Of
the community the u~ntiring manner in
which they aided the firebrigade is worthy
of notice and inspires us with great conf
dence. We are truly indebted to them
for much, not only with regard to this
fire, but also fOr previous similar disasters,
which have required promptitude, energy
and good will.
With regard to the engines of the fire.
department, We are sorry to say, much is
wanted. They do not at all meet the j..
requirements demanded, being entirely
too small, hence ineffective, and not fur
nlSled with the complement of appurte.
hanceS such as spare hoes sc. dc. neceS-
sary to make a firm resistance against the
devastating clement. We trust that the
frequent fires in this part of our island,
will bring about the purchase of fire
engines upon which the fire brigade can
firmly rely, and add to the efficiency of a
corps, that otherwise meet all the require.
mentS demanded Of it.
We must notice, that the only engine
of any efficiency is that belonging to
FrederikStOrt, under the able command of
Mn. Lndholm, whose prompt arrival on the
spot and untiring efforts checked the fire
from gaining an upperhand.
We tender orr warmeSt sympathy to
Mr.. Stevenson, who by the fire has suffer
ed a severe loss not having insured. nor
saved anything Of consequence but we
trust that he will sustain his loss manfully,
and let us assure him, that his general
Suayity of manners, and genial true heart
ednesS have gained for him many friends,
who will not fail to stand by him III this
hour of trial.

The Reading Mystery.

The mystery connected with the
young lady who tried to commit sui,
eide in Reading, Pa, as mentioned in
yesterdays GAZETTE is being cleared
up. The woman, it is now known
took poison by reason of family trou>
bles. The letter found in her satchel
from young man in this city, which
was at hrst supposed to have some
connection with the affair, turns out
to be entirely unimportant. The
young man IN question met the woman
during the Reading firemen's tourna-
ment, at the private boarding house
where he secured quarters for the
week. She was introduced to him as
Miss Bowers, though her real name
was Ida Reber. Their ACQUAINTANCE
proving agreeable correspondence
was agreed upon, and the young man
wrot, one letter, which was the one
found in the woman's cabba, There
does not seem to be any "Jennie
Cramer business" about this case, as
was at FIRST supposed.

George y. knight To. N light.

This evening Mr.. and Mrs. George
,. Knight will appear in their new
play written by Bronson Howard ex-
pressly for them. In speaking of the
play during its recent presentation in
New York the Telegram of that city
says:
A German spendthrift, who, after
nineteen years of labor, poverty and
tramping in America, is restored to his
baronial estates and to his wife and
daughter, whom he lost through the
ease of American divorce laws and the
Vaccinations Of the college cemrade
that had impoverished him, is the
character which gives "Baron Ru-
dolph" its title role and Mr.. George s.
Knight an opportunity for the display
of some exceedingly fine acting
Throughout this part and throughout
the piece there Iuns strain of quiet
but genuine and appropriate humor
that is in Mr.. Bronson Howard's best
vein. The comedy of Mrs. George S.

calf, the criminal lawyer, is more epi-

contributes not little TO the amuse.

Firing salutes is always dangerous
business. The celebration at York.
town and receptions to French visitors
have added two more cases to the
mangling ofgunners. One militiaman
from New Jersey had both arms torn
from his body at Yorktown, and ON
Thursday a cadet at Ches 1er met with
precisely similar fate. The cause Of
these premature explosions is generally
the failure of one Of the artillerymen
to stop the vent while the gun is being
discharged. Salute firing ls absurlity
in most instances, but If salutes must
be fired it would be we'll to use
breech loading guns, which are ct
least secure against this Kind of an 40.
cident.
ACCORDING to very good authority,
the final results of the French vintage
this year will "show a deficiency, on the
average of the last ten years, Of about
ten million hec olitres." For the con-
ISOLATION of American consumers of
French wines, however, wa are told that
there will be abundance for our wants.
"including the supplies from Spain and
Italy," We shall, perhaps, have as much
as we have ever had. Apples are plenty
this year, and there will be no lack OF
champagne, with the cobwebbed cork,
stamp and all.

LONDON, October %.
Mr.. O'Snlllvan, prominent ember
OF the Cork braDch of the Land League,
has been arrested, charged with isci,ing
tenants not to pay rent, In spite of the
governments proclamation declaring the
Land League to be an illegal and crimi-
nal organization. The Leaguers Of Fei-
managh and Leitrim have issued similar
Indictments. An armed band has VISITED
houses in the neighborhood of Carrick-
Oh Shannon, threatening rentpayers
with death.
Mr.. Gladstone, in the course of his re-
ply to the address presented to him at
KDowsley yesterday, said: "The point
was whether Ireland was going to be
governed by laws made by Parliament
or by laws known to nobody and written
nowhere except IN the brains of few
persons and enforced by an illegal, arbi-
trary and self-appointed association,
which sought TO override, by organized
attempts, the free will of Irishmen. 1t
was question between law and chaos"
No fewer than thirty thousand applica-
ton forms have been Issued under the
land act, he said, and this led him to an
ticipate future peace and prosperity.

Besides the loss on the building Mr..
Stoeckle will lose a large amount in
not being able to furnish his custo.
mers with beer. He will probably be-
gin to rebuild at once.
The beer In the Ice house will prob.
ably all be saved, and will last for a
few days. In the meantime Mr..
Stoeckle will probably make some
arrangements to serve his customers
with other beer.
During the fire Mr.. Stoeckle was
almost smothered with the smoke, and
this morning he was obliged to 60 to
bed.
