Historians generally agree that Cen
eral Washington's death was caused by
a cold contracted by exposure while
riding on horseback on cold Deem
Der day. Mrs. Young, the last surviv-
ing child of Washiugton's steward, An
derson, herself just deceased, related
recently how Washmglon's death might
have been avertod. II is true that he
caught the cold referred toand returned
home; but he was then summoned to
give instructions about the completion
of boat, and while standing without
hat or overcoat on the banks of the Po-
tomac, the chilling blasts increased the
cold, which proved fatal

Fire on Orchard Street.

A Tenement House Dana ged-The Only
 Loss.
 Last evening about 7:30 o'clock an alarm of fire was given from box 513, located at the corner of Henry and Orchard streets. The occasion of the alarm was a fire in the house No. 51O Orchard street, owned by Henry Rogers, attorney, who resides at No. 75 Broadway. The lower part of the house was occupied by'a colored man named John Stark, the second story tenement being un- occupied. At the time the fire broke out Stark was lying on the bed with his children,
 one of whom was sick, the wife and mother
 having gone to a drug store for medicine.
 While thus engaged a neighbor informed
 Stark that his house was on fire, and the
 alarm was given, the fremen responding
 promptly. Well directed streams of water
 soon brought the flames under control, but not until large hole had been burned in the roof and the house had been thoroughly drenched with water. With the aid of neigh bors MT. Stark succeeded in removing his furniture before it was damaged to any great ! extent. There no family living in the second story, and, as the fire started in the front corner room on that floor, it would ap- pear to be the work of an incendiary. The ' front door was open and the stairs leading te l the floor above were easy of access. Int damage to the building was from $25O tt ! $500, which-is covered by insurance.

The Mary stannard Murder.

Saturday evening Mrs. Rose l.. Watson ap- peared at City Attorney Pickett's with an interesting statement made to her by James W. Sypher, who figured unoficially as private detective in the Hayden case, but who was not witness and is supposed now to be in Hartford. The authorities had the suspicion at one time that he had brought 8 body from Rockland-Mary Stannard's or somebody's else-and buried it in his ya1d near West river. They dug over the yard,
 but found nothing, and Sypher slipped out of mind The story of Saturday evening revives him, but only for the purpose of. showing another curious phase of a singular murder. Mrs. Watson's state ment, as nearly as can be ascertained, is to this effect Sypher, who was waiting upon her, said he knew who killed Mary
 Stannard, but it was not Hayden. The day
 of Mary's murder was the day on which he
 should have been peddling in Madison, but
 he was somewhere else. He called at Hay
 den's house twice week with butter, and
 was so moved by friendship that upon the
 minister being accused of the murder acted
 as detective, in order that he might shield
 him. but without arousing suspicion in regard to himself. He would
 have testified if necessary, but finally thought he had better not, as what he would have said would have left a stain upon his character. He brought the body of a man from Meriden to this city and buried it to di- vert attention from Hayden. Sypher made certain other statements not connected with the case, which upon inquiry did not prove we'll founded. The authorities have deemed the matter of sufficient value to hear Mrs. Watson's statement, which would have been made before if she had known exactly how to proceed and what was best to be done.

Sporting men have been making arrange ments looking to having prize fight on Two Mile Island near Derby. An application was made for a special train on the Derby road,
 but the ulterior object being suspected as above the application was denied. The ap- plicants, who were young men, claimed that it was no fight but only an ordinary sparring match with soft gloves. It was thought by those who heard of the circumstances that the rumored fight might be between Sweeney ard Donovan, of this city. as the two men are matched to fight during the present month. A friend of the parties denied this and said there was to be benefit given to Sweeney in Birmingham tonight, at which Hollyhood, Reilly, McGlinchy of Bridgeport, and other noted sparrers were billed toap- pear. Sweeney would spar with McGlinchy.
