LANCASTER.

LANCASTER, March FL Correspondence
On Monday, the 9TH instant, according to
a prec2ncerted schedule, there occurred at
this place II very interesting festival. 1t
was to celebrate the eighteth birthday Of
Mrs Mary Ellis. She is the wife of Mr..
Thomas Ellis, one of the pioneers of Texas,
who is now 81 years of age, and to whose
SOth birthday similar tribute of affection
was offered, The children and grand.Chil-
dren of the aged and venerable couple con-
vened at their residence on the day above
designated, bringing with them Copious
supplies of culinary dainties, which were
served with great felicity. TO Mrs. Ellis,
who Was not Informed on the subject, every
thing seemed to be both spontaneous and
surprising. More than fifty children,
grandchildren and Creat-grand- children
were present After II day of enjoyment,
all repaired TO their respective homes, feel
ing that another appropriate leuative had
been administered to the demands OF worth,
merit and age. May the aged pair live to
enjoy the pure affection of their numerous
progeny and friends until II shall please
them to pass by an easy transition to that
realm through which the river Of bliss rolls,
Ger elysian flowers, her amber stream"
there to await al everlasting reunion with
kindre' spirits, where blindness never veil S
the vision, nor checks are eyeriurrowgd by
age or care.

Sam II. Finley, OF Terrell, Texas, during
his last illness, and lurther certify that
the said Sam II. Finley did not, during
said illness, or ut any other time, make
any confessions or statements in my hear
ing regarding the burning Of the Star
block in October last nor do ! know OF his
having made such statements to any other
person. The article published in the Dallas

Finley confessed to Dr. Harrington and
myself, that he and Others were playing
cards in the Star block on the night Of its
destruction, and that quarrel arose in
which man was killed ana the lamp was

On the topmost height of Red Noun
tain slight prominence, that looks nc
larger than 4 bushel basket. can be seen,
which is q telephone station established
by the Central Pacific Railroad Com
pany. This is house occupied by two
watchmen, who are on the lookout for
fires in the snowsheds. They can take
in the whole line of snowsheds with
their natural sight and by the aid of
glasses. If they observe 4 fire in or
near the sheds on any part of the line,
they Immediately notify the station at
Cisco by their telephone line, and forth
with the information is sent by telc-
graph to the railroad station at Sacra-
mento, and in minute or two the order
is sent up the line to Blue Canyon and
the Summit, where fire trains are con-
stantly on duty, to proceed to the point
where the fire is prevailing. The fire train
consists of a locomotive with two tank
cars filled with water, which is thrown
with hose by force pump. When the
fire trains are sent out they have the
road, all other trains near the point of
danger being stopped. The services OF
these fire trains are frequently called
upon, but they are so prompt in action
that they generally subdue the fires be-
fore much damage is done. The system
is as near perfection as can well be
made, SO that any great destruction of
the sheds is now nearly impossible
