EXCELLENT ENTERTAINMENT At SANGER
HALL AND AN INTERESTING LECTURE BY
REV. c. c. HITTING.
Some short while aeo the order OF the
Golden Chain was established. The first
lodge organized in Richmond was called
" Virginia y Lodge, and it, success became
Of once apparent. Two other lodges, "An-
chor" and Richmond" quickly follow
ed, and The membership in al is rapidly
growing, and all are in flOurishing condi-
tion.
DR.. II. Cabell Tabb is past commander
Of the first lodge ttbe Vrginia), and to his
efforts much OF the credit Of the success oj
the institution is due. The entire mem
bership Of the Golden Chain now numbers
about thirteen hundred. and while the IN
surance principle is similar 20 that OF the
Knights Of Honor, yet during the past
year only one death has occurred, and a. u
matter OF course the assessment has been
very light.
The Richmond lodges determined ut a
recent meeting 10 tender the officers Of the
Supreme Lodge Il complimentary enter
tainment, 10 which the friends of the order
were invited. The programme prepared
for the occasion by the committee. con-
sisting OF four members from each lodge,
was very attractive. Eey. DR.. C.. G. Bit
Ing. OF Baltimore. supreme Commander OF
the Order of Golden Chain. end formerly
the beloved pastor Of the second Baptist
church. OF this city, delighted his old friends
by agreeing 10 be present, and tell what
he knew about the order.
In his lecture before the large audience
OF ladies and gentlemen at sanger Hall hast
night the distinguished speaker was so
ielicltous in bis f0rty-fiyc minutes OF talk
n TO win unqualified praise. Everybody
seemed astOnished that so many good lhings
could have been drawn out by reference 10
the subject" Golden Chain, its Mission -
&c.
For the rest Of the programme there was
singing bv the popular quariette. Messrs.
Cunningham PizZini, Starke, and Ramos !;
Mrs. NJ K. Garnet, Misses Yoelker and
Puch; q solo by Mr.. K. II. Marshall. and
recitltions by Mr.. Felix !. MOses-all Of
which afforded ample satisfaction.
After the programme was finished the
invited guests sat down 10 one Of Zimmer-
manns suppcrs, and It seems that thi, ca
terer does better each time an OppOrtu-
nitY is presented. The evening was most
enjoyable, and was so voted by all present.

FIRE LAST NIGHT.
PelegrIn's Junk shop burned
Out on Beal street.

The one story frame building at az
Beal street, near DeSoto, belonging to
Mr.. Buchignani and o,cupid by John
Pelegrip as q Junk shop and rag denct,
caught FIRE after 10 o'clock las night
and was damaged to the extern Of
about 5000. The two story brick
building No. IA Beale street is owned
by d. Mariana, who with his family
occupies the upper story as dwelling.
According to the statement Of
Mariana his neighbor Pelegrin yester-
day secured q lot OF rags from the
ruins Of the front street fire, and
placed the same on the top Of his
(Pelegfin's) tin roof. Last night
between 10 and IL o'clock Mariana
states that he saw the fire when it
began on the roof, and that he imme-
dirtely started for engine house No.

but that Sergeant Scott and Officer
jackson proceeded him, in co1se.
quence of which be returned to look
out for his own property. He further
states that great damage was done
before the engines arrived. The
flames sprang to the frame kitchen in
the rear Of Msriana's house, and from
thence to the upper story, inflicting
loss 10 exesss Of the insurance, which
amounts to $1,000 divided, S4OO on the
furniture and piano and $500 on the
building, in Mr. Darlington Mason's
agencies. Nj. Mariana further declares
that the fro did not originate in his
kitchen: as has been reported. The
loss on Pelegrin's stock of sundr;es is
said to amount to somewhere near
$500, upon which there was no insuf>
anoe. The building he Occupied was
not insured. :fhe flames were gotten
under control by the FIRE department

but not until the roofs of several ad-
Joining brick buildings were consider

GOT HIS CATS.
A Changers Deal in Live stock
from the GayOsO House.

A granger-appearing party wearing
rather seedy garments and thick with
an accumulation of summer dust, en-.
tered the Peabody a day or two ago
aud registered from the vicinity of
Germantown. After visiting the soda
stands and refreshing himself he
strobe out and in short time had
cOrralled a lot of newsbOys. His OBJ
iect was soon explained. He desired
to purchase two dozen cats, irrespect>
i've OF age, sex or previous condition
OF servitude and offered to pay two
bits a head for them. The street
arabs seized on the proposition with
ayidity, and made the Gayoso House
the scene of operations. The dusty
corridors and deserted rooms of that
ancient structure became the theater
Of a scene replete with interest to both
boys and cats. The tabbies were loath
to leave their quarters for healthier
atmosphere, but the youngsters proved
victorious. and in less thaa a half
hour the requisite number of night
singers we're captured. One lad man
aged to secure a litter OF kitties. The
granger gave up his money according
to promise, and placed his live stock
10 bag Shouldering the same he
mounted adunAcolored nag and started
for the classic shades OF Germantown.
The gait of the horse shook the cats
up 10 a lively manner, and in their
contortions the bag over the riders
back. seemed possessed of balloons. One
energetic prisoner managed to get
claw through his cell and used it for
an anchor on the horses back, which
naturally awokO the steed, and in q
trice he was heading for the State
road in manner hardly equalled by
even John Gilpin's borrowed animal.
He, however. managed to reach home
without losing any cats.
