~ l school Lnds.
A little after 2 O'Clock yesterday after
noon the alarm Of fire was sounded, while
the classes in the two upper rooms Of the
public school were in the midst OF their
examination. In . moment there was .
panic. and it was impossible to hold
the boys. who went pellmell down the
stairs into the street and across to
the Mob Hill Hose house. In a jify
they had the machine put and were fly
ing with it down the hill to the FIRE,
there being only n man along, and
he using ell his muscle to keep the cart
from running away entirely. Within
three minutes from the first tap Of the
bell they had q stream Of water playing on
. pile Of cedar within . stones throw OF
the old Matamoras furnace and opposite
and west OF the residence Of Engineer
George Clark. When the hydrant was
reached Bob Doak stopped there with two
or three Of the boys, one Of whom, for
fear OF accident, gave the hose . turn
around the hydrant and yelled to the lads
with the machine, LET her flicker; the
water will be there by the time you
are I" We have to admire the spirit
OF the boys, the disposition to just
take right hold and make themselves
useful. but from q possibly '~pedagogic"
view Of the case, we think . display Of
better school discipline and obedience to
their teachers, inducing them TO stay in
their seats at school until granted per-
mission to attend the fire would have been
more to their credit. The blaze afforded
several amusing incidents to the large
crowd that assembled to look on. The
force Of the Mob Hill water was so great that
the first man who tackled the nozzle was
stood on his head in a pile Of rocks. The
fire was extinguished in q few minutes
and then some fire laddies Of the Mob
Killers and the Knickerbockers fell out
about something. Some hot words and a
volume Of cold water we're exchanged, and
then speaking trumpets and the charred
wood sticks were coming into requisition
when Officer Kaye jumped in to quell the
incipient riot. He met with q chilly re-
ception right under the ear, but by dint Of
taking Q bath with all bis clothes and q
dude hat on, he carried his point end
order was restored. Three cheers for the
Mob Killers and especially the s~choolboys.
To get to the fire was Q very uphill job
for the Knickerbockers and the Rescues,
but they got on the ground in time to pre-
vent the spread Of the blaze. Only q cord
or two were burned.

On last Thursday Information reached
the officials that . bestial assault had been
made upon the S-year-old daughter Of one
Of our citizens by one H. 0undry. The

treated to was the result Of thorough in

who have haunted the outskirts Of the
city during the past month, insulting lit
tie girls who, during the warm days, visit
the surrounding hillsides for the purpose
Of gathering flowers. The evidence against
Gundry had been carefully considered,
and was dsmning In it's direct proof Of

but In two other cases. Our informant
states that it was the determination of the
Committee to inflict the death penalty,
and q rope was provided for that purpose,
but that after reaching the place Of execu-

liberty, ever after he had confessed him.
self guilty OF three beastial crimes. Others
were determined upon his execution, and
% . compromise ii was finally decided to
give him = sound whipping and set him
adrift. An abandoned shafthouse west of
Missoula Gulch was the scene Of the
tragedy. The rope which was TO have
been the instrument Of death was securely
fastened, one end to each Of the culprit's
wrists. The loop Of the rope was then
thrown over q beam and hauled taut until
the toes Of the culprit barely touched the
ground. His wooden shirt was stripped
over his head and upon his back the blows
Of . heavy blsck-snake whip. administered
by strong and willing hands, fell thick
and fast. The blows were not counted.
but they were continued until the misera-
BILE wretch showed signs Of fsinting, and
probably numbered so or go lashes. When
taken down the man acted like a whipped
cur and begged piteously to be let off
without further punishment. He was
taken to the road and started in the direc-
ton Of Silver Bow. As he left one of the
party handed him q little silver probably

A good many flags are being made just
now, and it is 9 singular circumstance that
but few people know how they should be
constructed with reference to the number
Of stars and stripes. The design OF the
American flag originated in the idea that
the stripes should represent the IL
original colonies, the blue square sym
bolizes the blue canopy Of heaven. and the
stars the bright galaxy Of States which con.
stitute the entire Union.l The number Of
bars should therefore be Is and the stars
SO, that being the present number Of
States in the Union.

consecutive bull's-eyes each. Mr.. Hol-
comb and DR.. Dudley went to the target
to shoot of the tie, when both men again
made a clean score of so points each. The
third time the result was the same. Both
men cleaned their Remingtons, and for
the fourth time began to shoot off the tie.
Dudley started off with a bull's-eye. Hol-
comb followed with the same. On the
second shot Dudley scored q center, while
Holcomb made a bull's-eye. Both men
made four more bull's-eyes, when Dudley

A soft Yaung Man at sugar Boiling.

| went to a rousing sugar bilin' the
other night, and while the lurid flames
were glowing brightly in the furnace !
saw the prettiest pair Of Georgia eyes l
ever saw in my life. They were carried
in the head of splendid looking young
lady. My hair stood on end and fairly
trembled in my boots as l listened TO the
sweet music of her silver voice singing
merrily on the soft air of the lovely
night. l assisted her while she stirred
the young sugar, but the sweetest lump
of hard molasses I found was that
Georgia gal" If l could have pressed
her hand and talked about sweet
Eaters" and cracking bread, or il
could have gone to church with her,
should not rest content, but could not
90 on account OF a sore toe. 1t was my
first visit to "sugar bilin'," and will
remem Der it as long as the yellow moons
come and go, or the swimming stars
float over the rolling ocean. The faint
beams Of the young moon trembled on
her modest face. while she gnawed at
q Georgia yam as big as my leg. / also
hnaved the "tater" on the other end 4.
We kept gnawing away until our mouths
and lips were only an inch apart. o
hushl il was the best sweet ''tater"
ever ate IN this world or any other.

famous men, but there were q large
number who are in society. There were
army and navy oficers-among them a
general or two, and one or two rear
almirals and as many captains there
were secretaries of legations, lawyers,
persons in high official life, and any
number of men about town. The rail.
way man was astonished at the leisurely
way in which these people were taking
life, and he resented what he called their
waste Of time. II never saw such a
place as Washington is for meretalk," he
said, and continued: "They talk like
lot of women; there's no business in it.
When talk to nah it's about business,
and when l get through with him he
goes. l have two men in my Office to
keep away persons who want to talk Just
as these people are talking to each
ether He saw no beauty in such
life as his friends here are living. There
is too much enjoyment in this. and too
little money-too much socia oility, too
many of the graces of life. That is the
way, l imagine, most men look on
Washington and its society Boston

A CHINESE FLlRT.-Many ladies in
Hartford look back with pleasure to the
stay of the Chinese ambassadors there
while they were awaiting further orders.
They showed great fondness for good So
ciety and we're entertained in many of

see group of these high officials enter a
parlor, dressed in elegant robes of light
blue, garnet, cream or brown silk, with
the ample sleeves turned back over their
delicate hands and showing the white
silk Innings. One gentleman, perhaps in
mourning, wore an exquisite brocade
silk robe and trousers and white silk
gloves. They always wear their little
round hats and outer coats during visit;
and could scarcely be persuaded to re-
move them when the drops of perspira-
ton stood on their faces in a warm room.
young unmarried attache, who gener-
ally appeared in light blue, became
much enamored of the beautiful girls
whom he met in socity, and paid most
devoted attention to one not far from
Washington street. Having been present
at party given at her house, he was
particularly taken with the spectacle of
various young men and women engaged
in Irritation sitting on the stairs. The
custom struck him as desirably cosey, so
as early as Line o'clock the next morn
ing, before the young lady had eaten her
breakfast, he appeared at the door, and
when. in some surprise. she greeted him,
he at once made known his business. II
