EAST Lynne Last NTGHr.-East Lynne
has been played the world over, but 1t pos
sesses elements OF strong dramatic sltua-
tions. and the alternate flashes OF senti-
ment. paihos, and humor which light the
emotional drama Is just what Is calculated
TO interest an audience when strongly
brought out. Last night was the regular
opening Of the dramatic season at the Rich
mond Theatre, and Miss Ada Gray, sup
ported by Charles A. Watkins's Fifth-Aye-
nue. Combination, filled an engagement.
The Theatre was crowdcd--eyen the stand
ing room IN the side aisles being occupied
and II the applause and satisfaction OF the
critical audience be accepted as criterion.
the feelings that stir the soul were impcr-
sonatcd faithfully by Miss Ada Gray. The
field presented in the drama OF East Lynne
is broad enough 10 allow fun scope for the
exercise Of graceful movement and the cor
rect presentation OF scenes OF passion,
scorn. and the intelligent portrayal OF pas
sion and power. Miss Gray's reception
was certainly enthusiastic. and the support
was all that could have been expected. An
opportunity will be offered those who could
moi get seats last night to see this play to-
night performed by the same fine company.

The Squirrels Lesson.


Two little squirrels, out in the sun,
One gathering nuts, and The othe. had
none;
Time enough yet his constant refrain !;
Summer is still only inst on the wane.'
Listen, my child. while I tell you his
fate:
lie reused him at last. but he reused
him too late;
Down fell the snow FROM pitiless
cloud,
And gave little squirrel spo;less white
shroud.
Two little boys in school room were
placed,
Che always perfect, the other disgraced !;
Time enough yet for my learning he
said:
L will climb. by and by. from the foot
TO the head
Listen. my darling, their locks are turn
Ell gray;
One as Governor sitteth to-day;
The other. rauper, looks out at the
door
Of the alms-house, and idles his days as
of yorc.

One is at work, the other Mt play.

Fire at Mt Jackson, Va.--About
half past twelve O'clock Thursday
morning the 10Th inst, the store of
Mr. John Il. Lonas, in Mt. Jackson.
Va, was discovered TO be on fire. -
The alarm was at once given, the
whole town reused, and assistance
summoned from New Market aud the
surrounding country. Bnt the fire had
progressed SO rapidly in the store that
it was dangerous TO enter it, Which
with the entire stock of goods, except
a few things, burned to the ground
Mr.. Louas's dwelling, just north of
the store, and the Lutheran church,
south of it, both took fire and were
consumed At this juncture it was
apprehendcd that the whole town
would be burned, as the large agricul-
tural and implement warehouse Ga
frame building) of Mr.. Lonas, located
Just South of the Lutheran church,
was about to take fire, which would
have spread-ih all probability the
flames through that end of the town,
"a the southern part from the ware.
house is composed almost entirely of
wooden buildings. Tie warehouse
was saved. however. after great exer.
ton, and the progress of the flames
stayed. Mr.. Lonas lost about S22,-
900, and tie remaining loss was a.
bout 81 GOO The Lutheran church,
which cost about $500, was insured
for $4,000. The origin of the fire is
unknown.

Another Fire at Chester.

CHESTER, Pa, February pa
fire broke out about II o'clock in
one of the stills of the Seaboard Oil
Company. 1t originated in one OF
the tar stills, which blew up, caus-
ed, doubtless, by some of the pipes
becoming choked up. The top OF
the still, a heavy iron cover, was
thrown several feet away, but, for
tunately, no one was hurt. The
material in the still began burning,
and spread for some distance; in
its way were $50 barrels of oil,
which were quickly burned. This
made an intense heat. Some of the
oil ran down towards the river, and
the fire following it endangered
much valuable property. Close by
the still were five iron and two
wooden tanks, each with capacity
of about 200 barrels of oil. These
took fire and were consumed slowly,
except the wooden ones, which were
quickly consumed. Other buildings
close by containing large quantities
of oil, and it was with difficulty the
flames were kept from them. The
loss is about $4,000, mainly cover
ed by insurance.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Mr. Viii
liam H. Swift of the firm of Swift,
Courtney & Beecher, match manu-.
facturers, ofWilmington, Del, made
an argument to-day before the sub
committee of the house committee
ofways and means in opposition to
the repeal of the internal revenue
stamp tax on matches. He urged
that the match manufacturers of this
country, without exception, are in
favor of retaining the stamp. The
business has grown up during the past
sixteen years and become adjusted to
thee ,xistence of this tax, which enters
SO largely into the cost of the fin
ished article, that to remove it now
would be like compelling them to
go out of business and start on an
entirely new basis that the tax
takes no more from the people than
goes into the public treasury that
it is not felt as burden and its re-
peal is not the subject of popular
demand. while if removed it would
practically destroy the match man.

Our New Navy.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The
House Committee of Naval Affairs
agreed this morning upon a bill to
provide for the construction of ma
w. The bill makes provision for
the building of two crushing wal
vessels OF steel, of not less than s..
500 tons, nor more than 5000 tons
displacement, of full sail and steam
power. They must be capable OF
not making less than Is knots per
hour at sea or Ia knots on a meas.
1red mile. They will be armed
with four S-inch breech-loading ri.
fes. Iflarger guns should be ready
the number of smaller ones will be
reduced in proportion. The bill al
so provides for the construction OF
four steel cruising vessels OF not
less than 400 tons, to make a sea
speed of not less than fifteen knots
per hour, and to be armed with four
2-inch rifles and fifteen 6-inch rifles,
There is also to be constructed one
steel ram of 1900 tons displacement,
having an average speed of thirteen
knots per hour four steel cruising
torpedo boats, capable of making
twenty-one knots per hour. The to-
tai cost of al these vessels is not to
exceed 100000. They will be of
entirely new construction. and none
of the old materials in the Navy
will be used on them.

The Oberlin whiskey War.

CLEVELAND, February 20.-The
war against the Oberlin druggist,
who still declares he will sell
whisky on a doctors certificate,
still goes on, and to-day almost re-
suited in fight. Bronson put up
with the interference till Saturday
night last, since which time he has
been throwing the male crusaders
into the street. To-day he elected
several, and for fear that an assault
would be made on the place he tele-
graphed:to Elvira for the Sheriff,
who reported with q Deputy and
himself aboard hand-car. When
he got to Oberlin all was quiet. al
though a meeting was being held in
which some of the students offered
to smash Bronson's barrels and bot
ties, but were forbidden. The lead
ers in the temp, rance war say that
no violence shall be done that they
can prevent. They say, however,
that the fight shall go on for three
years but that they will put down
what they claim is saloon in dis
guise. The druggist is equally de-
termined, and threatens the arrest
of prominent citizens for assault
and trespass. The excitement is
great.

| LouIsvrLLE, KY, Feb. OF. J.
Melcher owns q three-story brick
house on the east side of Fourth St,
which was occupied on the ground
floor by the proprietors of gro
Gerry and abar-room. The water in
vading the first story yesterday
morning, he moved his goods up
stairs. Shortly after this he saw a
crack in the middle wall, when he
removed his family and hunted up
the life savers, De Van, TulIy and
Gillaly. and offered them $500 if
they would save his goods. They
took life boat and barge. and row.
ing out in front of the house, began
to get out the goods through the
second-story windows. There were
four families living over the bar
room part and two over the grocery
-Melcher's and another. One
barge load was taken out, including
Melcher's piano and fine furniture,
and taken to the shore and landed.
When the men returned for asecond
load Gillaly was in the third story,
Tully in the second and De Van
down in the boat. Only a few
things had been loaded when a
crash was heard +; the middle wall
fell, and the whole house, from the
top to the ground floor, with all its
contents, went down into the cellar.
Gillaly managed to jump from the
third story and Tully from the sec
ond through the awning frame into
the water below. The lfe-savers
have failed to earn the $500.
Every building along the river
front was under water yesterday.
Many houses and coal offices have
been washed away. The embank-
ment of the Short Line Railroad
has been swept away up to the ends
of the crossties. At the Dennis
Long Company pipe foundry on
Preston St, all work had to be sus-
pended. The water broke through
the embankment just above the
foundry and flooded the yard in the
rear. The current was very strong,
and the embankment was soon
washed away, letting all of the pipes
down into the river. From Four
teenth ST., down to the extreme end
of High st. the rive front was sub
merged. At the distillery of B. F.
Mattingly, operations had to be sus-
pended yesterday. Five hundred
head of cattle in the distillery pens
were all taken out in safety. At
the distillery of ]. G. Mattingly the
only loss will be in cattle confined
in the pens.
