EcEHArr MrSns, Aug 3, 1882
TO the MINING JocRNAL:
A destructive frs broke out about
I0} o'clock last night ia the cellar of
D. w. Busssrd q store-houaa in his
place ending in the total destruction
Of the building. The Ire was discov-
cred by the Stale Police on duty
around the picket line and an alarm
was at once given. The flames lad
gained such Roadway that it was found
impossible to enter the building at
any point aud it was soon perceived
that it was doomed. Attention wag
then given to the surrounding build
ings which were in great danger. A
roll of carpet which had been saved
was cut up and placed on Mrs. II.
Pengellys residence and store-house
and kept saturated with water by the
citizens who worked horoically to
subdue the flames. Captain Hancock
and division of the State Police
came from The camp and did most
excellent service in fact their expe-
rionce in fighting fires in the city
made them valuable accessories in
rendering aid. Mr.. Bussard' 3 papers,
books, &c., were found to DO in ex-
cellent condition in a large fre-proof
safe. As he has stood by the miners
in all their troubles in his loss he
has their sympathy and thiG they
demonstrated by The energetic efforts
put forth to cave Lis property. Had
the wind shifted around TO the ives, a
large block of buildings owned by
private parties would have been
swept away. Some are inclined to
think the fire was the work Of an in
cendiary as the cellar door is said to
have been found open by the fret ar
rivals. The loss is estimated at over
$4,000 insurance., $4,000.
All quiet here.

THE OREOLE.
Its September Festivities ilt
Baltimore.

The Order Of the Oriolo of Balti-
more will hold a general meeting on
Wednesday evening of this week,
when plans that have been matuIed
for the September pageant will be re-
ported, together with plats, drawings
and descriptive outline Of the en-
tire procession, 50 as to show conclu-
sively in advance the character Of the
work which the young men Of the
city propose to present this year. In
1881 the OrioIe display was purely
experimental, and owing to the mex
pelience Of those who had the affair
in charge the result was vary far from
being as brilliant or successful as had
teon anticipated, though money was
not wanting to secure far different
ends had it been properly applied.
Since then, however, the Order Of the
Oriole has been organized on basis
somewhat similar to The Mardi Gras
secret orders Of New Orleans. A
large and intelligent committee was
sent to the Crescent City last March
TO witness the MaTdi Gras professions,
and a subcommittee penetrated the
sanctum sanctorum of the most exclu-
sive Of the orders, and the veil was
lifted for the first time to the gaze Of
non-residents. This initiation Of sew
eral energetic and intelligent young
Baltimore business men furnished The
key for the work which for the past
three months has been steadily pur-
sued in secret. Ia this work, too, the
Order Of the Oriole has been stimu-
lated by an ambition to present re.
suits which will do no discredit to the
New Orleans sponsors, who will be
largely invited to the celebration and
most royalty entertained without cost.
The pageant will have the raiSon
d'ctre that it is for the celebration Of
the anniversary Of the defense OF Bal
timore, the he1oisIn Of those who held
Fort McIIenry against the British
fleet, and the birth Of the song of the
"Star-Spaugled Banner" In all the
history Of Baltimore, the city has
never witnessed such celebration of
these events as this September will
present under the auspices Of the Or
der of tho Oriolo. In addition to this

HUNDREDS Of farmers in Pennsyl-

fish culture. Many have stocked
ponds and streams, aud in most cases
they have been successful, especially
with carp, and in a few years they
will depend upon fish for a subaiste nce
as much as upon any other farm
product.

it would be necessary to lay one hand on

has Jumped up" just in the same way.

posed of representatives. from all the

thing said by and to him was fair and
candid, SO much so that it is not too
much to say that had Mr.. Sinclair
been invested with authority to ~
certain from the miners the best terms
of settlement agreeable to them, a
great stride would undoubtedly have
been made toward adjustment. AS
matters stood, however, nothing could
be done.
