AN ARTISTS BAD LUCK.
II. L. Tatnall's Studio SoOrohed by an
Early Morning Fire.

Early Morning Fire.
This morning about $50 o'clock, while
William GrinDage, q colored man, was put
ting in order the studio of H. l.. Tatnall and
G. 5. Hammitt In the Smith building, he
went behind temporary partition to pro
cure some wood. AS he passed between a
pair of curtains he heard match crack be-
nea his foot. Paying no attention to 1t he
did not stop, but in less than minute h,
was astonshed te find the curtain all ablaze
and confagration imminent. Hastily
giving an alarm, box No. IL being struck,
he seised a bucket OF water and in a short
time had the flames under control.
The wood work of the partition was con-
sidera5ly scorched and the paperlng dam
aged. The curtains, which were heavy
Egyptian ones OF old gold, were entirely de-
molished. Two painting by MIR. Tatnall
were considerably damaged by water, bu
the exact loss cannot be determined unit
they dry. One OF them contained the same
scene which attracted, In another painting,
70 much attention In Boston. A marine
view, the work of James Hamilton in 1859
was damaged to the extent of $50. An
easel, a bracket, and one or two other arti-
cles were also damaged.
The exact loss is not known, but will moi
amount at the most to $3.50, fully covered
by insurance In the New Castle Mutual Fire
Insurance Company, in which Mr.. Tatnall
had very recently taken out a policy ioI
81 900 upon his furniture and fixtures.
There was no damage to the building proper
as the burned partition was considered y
portion of the fixtures. A large quantity I I
paints used by the artists and large nun :
ber of very valuable paintings Luckily
escaped damage. The fire department re
spended to the alarm but were not needed.
A chimney on the Bayard Building, Nlntl
and Market, took fire about 8 O'Clock thin
morning and caused some little excitemen
ON the street. No alarm was struck.
