BoucicRult has lost none of his power, and
the full house that greeted him In "1he Col
leen Bawn" seemed TO appreciate this fact.
His sou and daughter Miss Nina were also
warmly received. Miss Nina made q graceful
and forcetul Colleen, and Mr. u, q, BouGicault,
jr,, filed the role of Danny Mann accoptably.
Both display no small share Of the talent for
which the father has become famous.
Nothing need be said Of Boucicaulps Miles ma
Coppaleen or Of the time.honored play, The
general support was good, aud the only chance
for faultfnding was In the management Of the
mechanical portion Of the play, u defect that

The h. d o. in Philadelphia.

The City Councils COMMITTEE of
Philadelphia on railroads heard argu-
inents on behalf of the entrance into
Philadelphia of the Baltimore and
Ohio's new line. The two ordinances
providing for the route of the passenger
line from the western limits OF the city
and the freight extension branching of
from the main line at the intersection Of
Dickinson street with Schulkill avenue,

John X. Cover, on behalf of the B. &
o., dwelt upon. every phase of the sub
ject at issue, and aided by large mar
pointed out and explained in detail
every portion of the new road in so fal
as it affected Philadelphia. Atthe out

A prominent butcher in the Second
street market house said onThursday in
the hearing OF a reporter of the REPUB.
LIcAN, that another gentleman, ALSO do
ing business in the same market house,
had figured up the cost per head OF
feeding each inmate in the Almshouse
At the rate paid for the last quarter a
beef, medicine, bread and other supplies
to average $1.5G per person in that insti-
tuition. This, he contends, ia costing the
county TOO much to run its poorhouse,

About 945 o'clock last night ar
alarm of fire wss sounded from box 4:
at Eighth and Broome streets, to which
the department responded with theil
usual promptness. 1t was caused by
the burning OF a small frame building
used by the Pennsylvania Globe Gar
Light Company for storing empty bar
rels, at Rowland and Clayton streets
There were three barrels of naptha, and
lot of empty barrels in the place, all OF
which were destroyed. Tie fire was
discovered by a young man who wa'
passing, and was undoubtedly the work
OF an incendiary. A pile of lumber in
The immediate vicinity belonging tc
Hubert Cassidy was charred SO badly
that ii was rendered useless. The tota
!oss will not exceed 800, on which
there was no insurance.

A can of benzine in the third story of
the building at the Southwest corner of
Second and Market streets, fhiladel-
phia, EXPLODED last evening,and this was
followed by another explosion of some
substance unknown which blew out the
front wall on passing pedestrians and
caused FIRE which resulted in nearly
100000 worth of property being de.
stroyed. One person was fatally injured
by the falling wall and has since died
another was seriously hurt, and one
person was 30 badly burned that a
fatal result was feared, but recovery
is probable. The fire spread to adjoining
buildings on both Second and Market
streets, occupied by various firms, and
four were either totally Quilted or badly
damaged
As soon AZ the dust from the falling
walls had partially cleared away and
the panic and confusion caused by the
reports had subsidized, H. was discovered
that Henry Vehmyer.Jr. aged q years.
son of the proprietor, was on the third
floor OF the Second street side O. the
building, and that his retreat down
stairs was cut off by fire, which began to
make Its appearance among the intiam-
mable stock surrounding him. At this
time an alarm had been sounded, and a
truck having arrived he emerged from
the gap in the walls and was taken
down on one of the Fire Department
ladders. As the flames came nearer
and nearer TO him he sought to jump
into the street below. but was restrained
by the spectators, who advised him to
wait for the fremen.
| Mary Cathcart, aged % years, resi-
Il IN NJ Dali To- rol
at Wright's umbrella store, who was
train for home, WAS passing the front oil
Vehmyer's store when the wall was
blown out. She WAS knocked down by
. portion of the debris, had her arms
and ribs crushed and sustained com
pound fracture of the skull. She wal
conveyed 10 the Pennsy lvania Hospital
where she died from her injuries at
O'Clock.
The fire, which young Mr.. Vehmyel
states was caused by the explosion oil
benzine with which he was sprinkliue
the furniture for the purpose of destroy
ing moihs, spread rapidly throughout
tho corner building until it was a mes,
Iof flames. Mr.. vehmyer occupted q
from Easements to fifth floor for tne dis
play OF his finest STOCK, all of which
was destroyed, as well az that on tn,
mr. floor of No. 202 Market street
where he also occupied the basemen
and first and fifth floors.
Mr.. vshymer says the stock in hi
lstores was worth $4,000, and is al
either totally destroyed or badly damag
ed. and that he has but $4,000 insur
ance, having allowed about $40, 900 t.
lapse two weeks ago on account of 81

building at the corner, valued at $40,
1000, belonged to the Fassitt estate. ant

A Great Peach Crop Promised.

The Phi adelphia Press, anxious to
know the exac. truth in regard to the
peach crop this year in Delaware, sent
out letters of inquiry to several of the
principal peach points and has received
the following answers:
From Lewes, Del, comes the news.
All parts of Sussex County indicate a
good show for an immense crop, even
larger than that of 1875, when the
country was everywhere over-stocked.
Last season there were 81, 00o baskets
shipped on the Delaware, Maryland
and Virginia Railroad alone, and
equally as many, If not more, used by
the evaporators and canning houses
along the line, embracing Milford,
Lincoln, Georgetown and Iewes. Su.
perintendent Groom thinks that the
yield on this season will be increased
fully 50 per cent. ifnot 10 per cent. over
last year. On the Western side of the
county, along the line Of the Delaware
Railroad. the crop promises to be heavy,
Bridgeville, Laurel and Seaford being
the largest shipping points in the
country.
The following estimate is sent from
Smyrna for Kent county:
Clayton Station. 243, 100 baskets;
Green Spring, 56.450; Brenford, l4S,-
600, Moorton, 52,7OO; Dover, 1873, 600;
Wyoming, 500, 200; Woodside, 5000
Viola, 10 400; FELTON,, 72,25O; Harring.
ton, IS, 100; Pennington, rs, 900; x enton,
l2l 800; Marydel, Il, 500; Hartley, 1860;
Siaughter's, l0OO; total by rail, ABOUT
SOC, 5000 baskets. Last year the ship
ments from these stations were l, 14l ,094
baskets. The steamer Tygert last year
carried 5000. This year it will
probably carry 10000 baskets. The
Peninsular crop will probably reach D.
000, 900 baskets. Clayton is the princi.
pal shipping station for this region,
growers owning orcha rds of from
5000 to %, 0G0 trees, ship ping from that
point.
A special TO that paper from Middle.
town states that the outlook for an
abundant crop OF peaches on the Della.
ware and Maryland Peninsula is
brighter than at this time of any pre-.
vious year since 1876 in New Castle
County the peach country is almost
entirely South of the Chesapeake and
Delaware canal, and the present con
dition of the crop of this district indi-
Gates a yield of G00,00U to 700, 000
baskets. The fruit Of the peach districts
|of Cecil County, Md, lying nearttl,e
Delaware line, for which Middletown is
the shipping point, is included in this
estimate. Peaches have apparently
thus far escaped injury from frost, but
the June shedding yet TO come may
greatly thin the crop. Young orchards
promise heavy and old orchards fair
yield.
From Elktor, Cambridge. and Sails
bury, towns Oh the Eastern shore of
Maryland, reports of an immense crop
are no less encouraging.
Old growers put the crops of the
Peninsula at9, 600 600 baskets, and emf
County will yield over 2 500, 000 baskets,
.0r 5000 carloads.

The Almahonse knppltss

Mr.. William Miller, a butcher in the
Second street market house, told re-
porter of the REPUBLICAN, that he was
satisfied that he was the lowest bidder
TO furnish meat TO the almshouse for
the ensuing two months that his bid
was 10 furnish meat a, eight cents per
pound, buying the bone back at two
cents from the almshouse authorities,
thus virtually making the cost of the
meat little over ak cents per pound.
The reason il was not awarded TO him
(Miller) he said was on political
grounds only. He also said OF all the
successful bidders for supplies ouly one
of them was q Republican. 1t mus
have been given 10 him through sem,
mistake.
