THOUGHT it extinguishcd. But it was
not. and it fcll-since at that very mo-
moment Alice had swept her tram INTO
a new place-on her laces. ana nen
in an instant there was q sheet Oh

sud screaming. and Alice was on the
floor, aad smothercd in the rug one
Of them had caught up, and MI.
Grey had thrown a vast of flowers
over her, and the fire was out.
"But. oh, papa moaned Alice,
forgetting everything even then but
her dress, show could you-how could
you throw water on me- suppose It's
ruined. And oh, my arm and my
hair!!n
Thank Providence" Mrs. Allen
cried, "if only your dress is hurt,
Such an escape! But your arm-let
us see it. My poor, poor child!' For
as she stripped off the blackened bits
of lace and satin, she saw that the
fair round arm was deeply marked
by the track of the fame. One shoulder,
too, and the curl at the nape of the
neck had suffered; but, under the cir
cumstanccs. she had suffered less than
they feared.
':But my dress! my drcss!'' she cried
again, rs she looked at its ruin
"what shall l do now for a dress? And
the cards out, and everybody knowing
what I'm to wear. and even the flowers
ordered, and no money left"
"My dear" Mrs. Allen interrupted,
as she bathed her arm, ''there'll be
time enough to see to all that. The
burn is deeper than ! thought. If your
arm is well in a month, you'll do very
we'll" And when the doctor came he
confirmed this opinion.
SO the grand wedding, and the re-
ception, and the train Of parties, were
all off. There was nothing for it but a
month of poultlcing and bandaging and
sitting at ease all day long, while her
friends heard over and over again the
tale of her escape, and mourncd with
her over the fate of her gown.
But she came to herself in that
month. Perhaps, when she had time
to think Of it, the escape from a horri.
BILE death made plain to her the reali-
ties of life, which in these last weeks
she had half forgotten in a whirl of
vanity. Certainly, when SIX weeks
later she was married. it was a very
quiet and simple wedding, and her
best friend, easily rcconciled IN her
new trouble, was her only bridemaid.
''The best thing that evcr happened
to it was its burning" Mrs. Allen said
to her husband. ''lt's been q vexation
and snare from the first, and if jamie

But Mrs. Dean had learned her little
lesson long before, and her friends no

THE RICHMOND CONVENTION

The editor if the Ohio Falls

editorial against the editor OF the

vention which light men like him.

ay to the editor of the Express
that we had more honor rendered
to us by the convention at Louis
vile than the man who dubs him.
self physician and sergeon, namely
the editor of the Express, who was
defeated as a delegate to the Louis
vile convention by the talented
editor of the American Citizen,
Prof. Simmons. Our advice to
the editor of the Express is to
practice butchering hogs instead
of dubing himself sergeon and
physician as he would make bet
ter headway. We still aver that
the committee appointed to pre-
sent the memorial to congress con,
sist of men like the editor of the
Express who possess more brains
| in their feet than In their heads
The people don't desire another
convention and we will wage the
editor of the Express that there
will be no convention. In the
first place there was not a quorum
of the committee present, secondly
the committee had only certain
delegated functions which it coulc
not 60 beyond. Out of the 81
members Of the committee ther'
were only dozen present, if tha
many. The editor claims that W
attempt TO dictate to the who'll

vention from the fact that it is i

The citizens of the city are in
dignant over the removal of Miss
Arelia Butler from the public
schools Of this city. 1t will be re-
membered that this lady was re-
moved by Trustee William Henry
Smith. because, he said she refused
to speak to him. At the time of
Miss Buffers removal she sent a
letter to the District Commission
ers under Morgan's regime but she
received no reply Since that
that time the case has been sub
mitted to the board of trustees for
a rs-hearing. 1t is hoped that the
committee Oh teachers will report
favorably in this lady's case, as
Smith, himself says, in a letter to
the lady, that he removed her On
personal grounds. A BEE report
er called to see several teachers
that have knowledge of the facts
in the case and they say Ex-Trus-
tee Smith would imply in his talk
that teachers must treat him with
reverence. 1t is about high time
that this autocratlc ruling in the
schools should cease. There is
quite a difference in the manage.
ment of schools now. The present
trusees demand that teachers be
treated with respect and if they are
not they will see that they are.
The BEE will have more to say
when the committee on teachers
make their report.

THE HOUSE DISTRICT COM.
MITTEE.

Last fall we said that it was
our hope that Hon. John S. Bar
bour would be placed at the head
of the committee on the District of
Columbia, Mr.. Carlisle has made
that appointment. When we
spoke of Mr.. Barbour then we
said that if be was made chairman
the citizens of this city would find
in him a friend, and that our peo-
pie, the colored citizens would re-
ceive more courtesy at his hands
than 1t had been their lot to get
fn the past. We are glad to an
nounce that our predictions are
fully verified. We do not want
any special favors set one side
for us but we ask to be treated
with the same amount of respect
and courtesy that is accorded to
others. Mr.. Barbour has already
shown that this shall be done.
We again repeat the wish that
there were more courteous and
urbane gentlemen in the public
councils of the nation like the chair
