A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

The lock works of Fraim s. Bro, which
were situated on the Park avenue, 10 the
rear of tho Lancaster cemetery, were en-
tirely destroyed by fire between and
o'clock this morning. The building was
tvo-story brick, size T2x32 with base
ment cellar and flat roof, and nothing Is
left standing but the walls. The fire was
the work of an incendiary and was started
in the shipping room i'll the eastern part
of the building. 1t was discovered by
man named McCutcheon, who lives near
by and be says wher he arrived at the
building the door leading into the shipping
room was open. An alarm was struck
from box 4G, at Frederick aud Duke
street at 4:3O o'clock by Private Watchman
Shuebrooks, and the tiremen were prompt
" on hand. The fire had gained great
headway, as it had probably been burning
some time bstore it was discovered, and
the building Was soon destroyed with its
contents. The firemen worked hard, and
succeeded in saving a small frame dwell
ipg near the works, blacksmith shop and
several other buildings. A stable, which
was only Is feet away, was somewhat
damaged, as il had window on a level
with another in tho lock factory. The
hay i'm the stable caught fire, but the
flames were extinguished. Two sets OF
harness were burned and two sleighs
badly damaged four hocsss were save l..
In the lock works there were several thou
sand dozen of locks in stock and in course
of completion, and of course, these ara
either ruined or badly damaged. The
machinery is all wrecked and lying in the
basement of the building.

Hints for II usOandmep.

from the GermantOWn Telegraph.
A gentleman told US tho other day that
last year he had constantly for several
months green peas upon his table of his
own raising, and that they lost nothing of
their deliciOusress. There is NO difficulty
in this, if gardeners are instructed to
90 steadily on with their paintings
through the season but few will do it
on their own account, as it adds to their
labor. The way, however, to raise tho
finest quality of peas is, after the first SOW
ings, to plant them deep and mulch them,
so that the soil they root in is always
cool and moist. In the careless manner IN
which peas are frequently cultivated,
they have very little flavor and delicacy.
1t is so with raising what is called tho
snapshort beans. They are seldom plant
ed deep enough, and rs consequence
have no more flavor than piece Of In
dian rubber, and about as tough. But tho
beans planted in September, and in due
time are for sale in our markets. are really
delicious in flavor and fairly melt
in the mouth. This is the result Of cool
soil. But were these beans planted three
or four inches deep, rs We have more than
once suggested, throughout the season,
and mulched in tho hottest portion OF 1t,
we could have, as with the peas, these
vegetables at all times up to November III
perfection.
Budding of trees is very simple and
much less trouble than grating, butt can

Remove it with an ivory, horn. or very
