FIRE AT THE WAR DEPARrMEN It.
The New Elevator Burned Up and the
Building Slightly Damaged.

At few minutes of o'clock last night
smoke was seen filling the corridors of the
new war department building by Mr.. W. b.
Denney, one of the watchmen at Seven
teenth and streets, who discovered the fire
to be in the topmost story OF the building.
He caused an alarm to be sounded, which
was quickly answered by the fire department,
and on the arrival Of Chief Cronin general
alarm was sounded. The new elevator car
and shaft were found to be on fire. Tho
entire reserve force of the police
was on hand Considerable excitement
was occasioned when it was learned that the
building was on fire. and largo multitude of
people filed tho streets. The fire department.
went quickly to work and subdued the flames,
but not until the elevator was burned to
crisp. The loss is roughly estimated at $500: /:
damage to the building slight. The elevator
had just received repairs, and it Is thought
that tho fire was caused by the spontane eous
combustion of oil rags left in the car by the
workmen on leaving the building at night.
During the fire Privates George Warren, of
truck B, and A. ]. Sullivan, of No. engine,
were burned about the face and hands by
falling cinders.

A Shower or Worms,

After the heavy rain yesterday afternoon,
the asphalt pavement was covered with worms
which must have fallen from the cloups, as it
was impossible for them to have como from the
ground, through the hard concrete crust These
wriggled about as if somewhat dazed at find
ing themselves in new sphere. Whore they
came from is a mystery for tho scientists to
solve They had every appearance of an
earthly origin but they certainly came from
above. In form and movement they resem-
bled tho ordinary angle worm. The sparrows
enjoyed luxurious feast.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
The Police Think They Arc on the Track
OF n Great Wrong.

of a Great Wrong.
A mysterious case Of sudden death was
brought to light yesterday by the police, who
are now investigating the matter. From all
that could be learned last night it appears
that short, thick-set white man, with red
side whiskers, engaged rooms on street,
between Ninth and Tenth streets, several
days ago. He was accompanied by very
pretty woman. Both Of them arc strangers
in this city, and 1t is thought that they came
from Norfolk. A few days after they had
secured rooms the woman died, aud her body
was removed to Barker's undertaking estab.
lishment, on Eleventh street, and the man
disappeared. A suspicion exists in police
circles that the woman did not die from nat
ural causes. and they are trying to ascertain
the whereabouts of the man. Coroner Pat
terson will hold an inquest over the remains
to-day. The man was seen in this city yes
terday in an intoxicated condition.

d A sudden change from poverty
to wealth is apt to turn mems
heads, but it has not proved to be
so with Mr.. Gilbert S. Montgomery
of Mt. Olivet, KY, who last week
received here, through the First
National Bank, $4,000, as the hol-
der of one-fifth of ticket No. sc, 800,
which drew the capital prize In the
April drawing of The Louisiana
State Lottery, costing him but one
dollar. He is at home pursuing the
even tenor OF his way as farmer,
and shows disposition to use wise
ly the money dame Fortune has be-
slowed upon him. When the pub
lie was inclined to doubt ifhe would
receive the money, he was offered
by responsible parties, the amount
called for, less two per cent, but
knowing the integrity ofThe Louis
lana State Lottery management, he
declined the offer, and has received
$4,000 in full. 1t was the first lot
terry ticket he ever held in his life,
and he paid for it the sum of one
dollar.-MdysviIle, Ky., Bulletin.

The Grant Collapse.

The most sensational failure
among those that recently took
place in New York was that Of
Grant, Ward q Co. The firm was
composed of ex-President Grant,
Ferdidand Ward, U. s. Grant, Jr.,
and James d. Fish, president of the
Marion National Bank, which has
also failed. The liabilities of the
firm is $4,000, sol, 53I.04 and the
assets will not reach $40, 100000 A
great many people are ruined by
the failure, including the Grant
family. Ward was the managing
man of the firm and all the ODlo-
guy resulting from the failure and
its fraudulent aspect is charged to
him. He seems to be fair type OF
the adventurer. He went to Brook
Ign few years ago as a clerk on a
small salary. He managed by
shrewd diplomacy to get himself
into society and married rich girl.
Since his eInbarkatiOn in business
with the Grants he has been living
in princely style, keeping coach
man, footman, French butler, a
French cook and a French waiter,
besides carriages, dogs and other
belongings of a wealthy man. He
also had country estate in Con-
necticut for which he paid a big
price and where he stabbed his
twenty four thoroughbred horses.
Gen. Grant seems to have always
been unfortunate in surrounding
himself with corrupt men. The
memory of Babcock and the whis-
key ring very naturally arises in
this connection, when the President,
though no way implicated in the
frauds, was very closely connected
with those who were.
Gen. Grant lost very heavily by
the failure, but is still by no means
an object of charity. The property
settled on his wife brings an income
of $l5, 900 year, and a bill has pass
ed the Senate to put him on the re-
tired list with $4,000 a year pay.
Besides all this, he has a trust fund
of S25O,OOO, given him by Jay
Gould and others which his credit
ors can't touch. The general is not
likely to starve.

IN the course of a speech at Knox
vile, welcoming the New England
editors to the South, the President
of the Tennessee Press Association
Hon. b. a. Enloe of JacksOn-re-
fered to West Tennessee as "the
land of the magnolia and the mock
ing-bird." This figure of speech
was probably due 10 the eXhilara-
ton of the festive occasion, so to
speak. In point of fact, there is
nothing in the whole area of West
Tennessee, outside of a dollhouse,
which more nearly resembles a
magnolia than a pawpaw.-Lebd-
non Herald.
For once the usually acurate edit
or of the Herald is himself mista-
ken. The writer of this paragraph
has spent nearly all of his life in
West Tennessee and can testify to
the correctness of Brother Enloe's
description of the country. Magno.
las are almost as common in that
section as cedars are about Lebanon.
They are not indigenous, but no
tree or shrub is more common in
yards, parks, cemeteries and all
places where ornamental trees are
planted.

WE are inclined to think some kind
of dog law is going to be so forcibly
demanded of the next Legislature in
this State that there will be no chance
for the Solons to dodge the question.
Tennessee is so well adapted to sheep
raising that the intelligent farmers of
the State will not longer submit to
having that useful industry interfered
with by the hordes of bowling ours
that infest the country. There would
be no use in legislation that has in
view the entire extirpation of the ca
nine tribe. Such a contamination
would not be desirable lift were posi-
BILE. As long as men inhabit this
globe dogs are likely to be found here
too. and no one can successfully deny
the assertion that good dog is a good
thing What we want in Tennessee
is something that win curtail the num-
her Of worthless and ill-fed ours. That
class of dogs must go and the legisla-
ture must devise the means to get rid
Of them. The sheep raiser, too, must
be given greater liberties in the pro-
lection of his fiocks against canine
