it is worth My news is that the Jersey Lily
is to be married to Mr.. Frederick Gebhardt
in the coming autumn, by which time she
will be free from the bonds matrimonial, and
at liberty to do as she will. My information
goes further, and declares that the divorce
will be obtained under the law in New York,
which grants divorces for abandonment or
desertion for two years. The fair Lily will
plead the fact that Mr., Langtry has aban-
doned her and has done nothing toward her
support for the period mentioned. There is
quite a difference between Mrs. Langtry and
Mr. Gebhardt in the matter of age she being
about thirty-two and he twenty-four; but

NEW YORK, Nov. %.
Fire broke out in the Windsor Theater,
No. 40 Bowery, shortly before twelve
o'clock tonight. The flames spread rap.
idly. In a few minutes after the alarm
sounded the whole structure was mass of
flames. All efforts of the Fire Department
were unavailing to check the confagration,
and the building was totally destroyed.
The flames communicated to several ad.
joining buildings. The fire originated be-
tween the first floor and basement, under
the main stairway, and was discovered by
the policeman at that post. Besides the
theater, the building contained two small
no els, kept by Hartman end Loehl, and
situated on either side of the main entrance
to the theater. There were forty guests in
Hartman's hotel and a smaller number in
Loehrs, all of whom escaped without diff.
Guilty. There was no one in the theater at
the time, the performance having closed at
l0:45, nor were there any remaining at the
ITALIA Theater, situated directly opposite
the Windsor, on the Bowery. The whole Fire
Department of the district was summoned
by general alarm, but the efforts of the
fremen were greatly impeded by the pecu-
liar structure Of the building and by the ell
evated railroad structure, which passed in
front Of the theater. Trains, however, were
finally stopped, and the firemen were able
TO work more effectively by taking the
hose to the top of the structure. The fire
had gained such Roadway by this time that
it was seen to be useless to attempt to save
the building, and they turned their attention
10 the surrounding buildings. The theater
building was owned by VIM. A. Martin, Is
East Tnirty-eighth street, and was valued
1t S3O0,OO0.

and greatly interfering with their opera
tons. The department got quickly to
work, and several streams of water were
soon pouring into the building, but with
apparently little effect. The fam IS quickly
spread to the adjoining building on Fred.

twenty-six. The largest of these made
last year 392 tons of starch from $1,000

starch making is simple, consisting
merely of grinding the potatoes, wash

thoroughly washed with clean water to
