THE other day President Soto, of
Honduras, was in Washington city,
and when he proposed to pay his re-
spects to the different officers of the
government he found that every head
of department was away from the
capital on trips of frolic. Speaking of
Honduras, the New York Sun re-
marks that sit is one of the five Cen
trail American republics with which
it is our interest to cultivate the best
relations. These republics look up to
the United States for example and for
encouragement. Their form of gov
eminent is modelled after ours, and
they are our near neighbors. Not
withstanding these facts, their trade
like that of the South American repub,
lies, has been mainly with Great
Britain" The republic has an area
of 58,168 square miles and a popula.
ton of 100000. Its exports amount
to about 81, 100000 annually, and are
rapidly increasing. President Soto
will doubtless conclude the great
American republic elects its officials
merely as a formality.

grocery house, on Commerce street,
burned tonight. The fire caught at
$50 o'clock in the cellar, where Clerk
Schultz went to draw bottle of
whisky from barrel, taking lighted
candle. The candle communicated
fire to the barrel, which exploded,
spreading flames so rapidly that
Schultz was badly burned. Two negro
porters, Sam and Dave, were also very
badly burned. The stock was valued
at 100000; insurance about $4,000.
The building was owned by Groos 81
Co., bankers, and was insured for
about $4,000. The bank building,
next door, on one side, was badly
damaged and Hannig Branden's fur
niture house was on the other side.
There was no loss to the latter. The
total loss of Groos & Co, and Hugo &

building were burned out. R. G. Dun

OSCAR WILDE's play, "Vera," has
been put on the boards at Union
Square theater, New York. 1t seems,
as most people expected it, to be a
dead failure. The Herald notices it
thusly:
Dudedom was on hand ia force,
and queer looking force it was, with
cropped hair, dog collars, sloping
shoulders, eelskin trousers and point
ed shoes. The scent of the cigarette
hung around them still, and their
rank offense made the judicious
haps too much to ask that any audi
ence should be "real good" from half
after Z or s until quarter to II. At
all events, nothing but the regard in
which Miss Prescott is held by the
public saved the play from melciless
guying, and the last act especially,
which developed an immense fund of

Leading Republicans of the coun-
try are openlyicondemning the admin
isJration for allowing Malone to use
the patronage Of Virginia to break
down the Republican party in that
state. 1t may be that the president
will not heed their protests. If he
does not, it will be an acknowledge
ment that the bargain with Ma
hone is of such a character that it
cannot safely be broken. Whether the
straightout Republicans of Virginia
get any encouragement from the ad-
ministration or not, it is certain they
propose to fight Malone to the bitter
end. They would rather see the Dem
ocrats than Malone successful. 1t is
to be hoped that they will keep up
their fight. 1t means the overthrow
of Malone and the victory OF the
Democrats.
