BASE INGRATITUDE,

A Stepfather Imprisoned In His Own Cellar
and Reported Dead That Others Might
Enjoy His Property.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, February 27.-In
1871, William Henry Jackson Moore, a
bachelor living on farm in Washington
County, married widow named Mrs.
Wallace, and took to live with them her
eighteen-year-ol daughter. In 1873
Mrs. Wallace died, and shortly after the
step-daughter married a worthless fellow
named Slavin. After bullying and ILL
treating Moore for some time, the tw o
finally persuaded him to make will in
their favor. A few nights after this, while
lying in bed, Moore was seized, bound
and gagged and thrown into cellar
previously prepared for the purpose, and
where he has since been confined, his
meals being conveyed to him through a
small wicket in the door.
About two weeks ago, in the absence
Of his relatives from the house, Moore
managed to escape from the cellar. and
ransacking the house, found 500, with
which he procured suitable clothing and
went to Wheeling, where he found that
his designing relatives had given out that
he had died in Michigan while visiting
relatives there, and mad defrauded him
out of his property. Mr.. Moore came to
Pittsburgh, and having established his
identity, is engaged in seeking legal ad-
vice in order to recover the property now
in the hands his stepson.

DISASTROUS FIRE.

Burning of the National Theater at Wash
inston-Lester WalIack's Company Lose

in the Burned Building.
WASHINGTON, d. c., February e.
Fire which broke out between one and
two O'Clock this morning on E street,
between Thirteenth and Fourteenth, the
tames of which were not extinguished
until half past four, is still smouldering.
The site upon which stood one of the
largest theatres in the city is now mass
of ruins. All of the front and side walls
of the National Theatre, which also con-
tanned the famous billiard saloon of Mil.
Ter & Jones, have fallen. The scene at
this hour beggars description. w. w.
its value at 100000, and says the insur-
ance amounts to $4,000. The furni.
ture, scenery and other properties Rapelo
valued at $4,000
Lolita, the actress, owned $4,000 OF
the theatre stock.
Miller & Jones estimate their loss at
$4,000, part of which is covered by in
surance.
The tailoring establishment and con-
fectionery store underneath the billiard
room were also destroyed, but the losses
do not exceed 81, 800.
Lester Wallack's company were play
ing "Victor Durand'' at the National
Good houses greeted them nightly.
Newton Gotthold says that every hing
he had in the world was in the ruins, in
Guiding the manuscript of his new play,
"a Hayward Woman" which was to
have been produced next season.
All the members of the company lost
their wardrobe, properties and special
scenery. The loss to the company ex-
ceeds $4,000.
The origin of the fire is a mystery.
Matthew Brady, the engineer and watch
man had his sleeping quarters in the sec
ond story. When Officer Penney, who
turned in the alarm, returned to the scene
of the fire he discovered Brady at the
window of his room, and barely saved his
life by placing ladder in position to en-
able him to escape.
The flames caught on the back of the
building of the Harris House, but beyond
burning the cornices and window-frames,
did but comparatively little damage. The
entire loss by fire will probably not ex-
coed 100000. The Jackson House,
Brache's French Restaurant and Eek
STEMS saloon, all east of the theater
building, were considerably damaged by
water.
