SNYDER wants the case aired in court.

CHICAGO, Jan. S.-A warrant is out for
tho arrcot of Joe Sheldon, a 15.year.old lad,
against whom Mrs. Annie mbrecht, of No.
% North Halstcad street, relates story OF
almost Incredible aud fendish cruelty. In
proof of her assertions Mrs Umbrecht shows
the blistered and dscolored face Of her 49,
year-old boy. The latter is an attendant at
the Scammon school, and, according to his
mothers story, came home from school a
day or two ago, crying piteously and hold
ing his face in his hands. Mrs. Umbrecht
made an examination of his condition and
fouud the skin on the entire right side of
his face peeling off and leaving exposed the
unprotected flesh beneath. The lad sobbed
out thai Joe Sheldon aud another school
mate, whose name lie did not know, had
ovcrtaken him after anhooi, aud while the
strange lad had seized and held Umbrecht,
Sheldon had applied liquid to the face of
the struggling boy which burned into his
fac and which is said by the physicians
who attended the boy, 20 have been vitriol.
1t is said that young Sheldon and his con-
federate had attempted the same thing on
several other pupils at the school during the
past two weeks.

VAUCLEUsE, Jan. G-Everything in this
vicinity is improving. The citizens of this

church, one which, after having been COM
pleted, will do credit TO the country. Rev.
A. NJ. Hershey, will be its pastor. Mr..
Hershey was born in Pennsylvania, but
came to Virginia before the war. During
the war his sympathies were with the outh.
Mr.. Hershey is gentleman ofhigh intellec
tual culture, having lately been appointed
to an honorary membership of the Literary
Society of Western Maryland college.
The Sunday school officers of this place
had Christmas tree for their pupils. Three
trees were heavily laden with gifts for the
children. Some CT the presents were quite
costly. Before the gifts were distributed
addresses were made by several gentlemen.
The land here is fast selling, the purchas-
ers coming from the Valley, who seem
highly pleased with their change of resi-

The ice business of Bangor has received
severe and entirely unexpected blow. In
the storehouse Of Henry McLaugh-
lin, where a fire occurred on Saturday
night were stored 1900 barrels Of
kerosene oil. A large part of this Gil
ran into the river, and thorough ex.
animation shows that it has entirely spoiie
the splendid field of ice. Even mile be-
low the place where i! entered the river the
ice has been rendered unfit for use. The
oil has been carried by the tide to the up.
per fields, and the ice there has been i'm.
piegnsted with Kerosene. II is thought
that Inc Ice can be started oul Of the river
by means of dynamite, and that new crop
can be formed.

A DYNAMITE Den,

A dispatch from Greensburg, Westmore-
land county, Pa, says the rumor Is cur
rent that English detectives have obtained
evidence TO the effect that powerful secret
society of dynamiters is in existence within
the boundaries Of that county, and also that
the society is directly responsible for the
recent explosions and assassinations in Eng.
land. These detectives have been on The
track of this society or brotherhood fer
several months, and have found that it is
we'll and thoroughly organized, somewhat
under the plan OF the Mollie Maguires; that
its treasury contains large amount OF
money obtained by ass ssment and from
other sources from all parts of the State.

Correspondence of the Alexandria GAZE

e.!
PLAINS STATION, Jan. 6.-Another year
has dawned upon our enterprising town,
and our energetic citizens look back with
pride to tho past year which has proved SO
remunerative 20 each and every one. Many
formed pools, according to our modern Gus.
tom, and kept prices booming. Most no.
ticeable among these are those who work
in leather, it being as hard for poor man
to get bis boots half soled as it is for q rich
one TO enter the kingdom of heaven. Our
town, which has always had an extreme
moral tendency, was greatly accelerated in
that direction by severe shock of earth
quake, which occurred on the night Of the
I'd inst, and which shook old Fauquier from
centre to circumference. So great was the
Consideration of the citizens of this place
that many spent the night in weeping
and praying, whilst others attended the
meeting of the Hallelujah club in the lower
ward, where good resolutions were being
made for the coming year. l. is said OH
that night over three hundred and fifty per-
sons signed the pledge to abstain from dane
ing aud other worldly amusemen:s.
But, decidedly, the most narrowing tale
we have heard in regard to the earthquake
comes from q neighboring villa where a
large party of ladies and gentlemen had as
sembled to indulge in the light fantastic. 1t
happened that no dance had been held
within its sacred walls for the space Of
nearly twenty-five years, and consequently
many who were in attendance feared less
when the 'harps their soul Of music she'd"
other souls might disengage themselves
from their present occupation aud appear on
the scene. About nine o'clock all was in
readiness for the ball to begin, and the min
strels tuned their instruments for the last
time. But, alas there came a crash un-
equalled by the artillery of heaven, and at
the same instant hand was seen to write
upon the wall. 1t is useless to say the CON-
pany retired; Jehu in his palmiest days
would have been left far In the distant rear.
Fast sped the terrified equestrians, whilst
the whoop calls of the characters as they
brought up the rear were drowned by the
deep mutterings of the fast receding earth
quake. So ends all earthly visions.

ORANGE, Va, Jan. 6-The GAZETTE
has made two shots at the burning OF Bar
louisville, and has missed with both bar
rels." 1t is absolutely unknown, and must
always remain mystery, how the fire orig
mated, but the defective hue' theory is
altogether improbable. The fire started in
the garnet, which was kept securely locked,
and where no one had been for two weeks,
certainly and probably for much longer
time. The match and mouse theory is by
far the most plausible, and the only COM
fort to be derived in the destruction of SO
splendid mansion is the knowledge that it
was purely accidental and that no human
foresight could have guarded against it.
Certainly ii was splendid old home, and
worthy of the good people who have al
ways owned and occupied il. Planned by

or James Barbour in 1921, and from that
day until Christmas, 1884, had been The

And in pleasing proof of the kindly feel
ing which so many good people entertain
for the family kilograms and letters contin-
ued to pour In for days alter the burning, Oh
fering welcome and shelter until their waste
places could be repaired.
And | am glad to state from personal
knowledge that nearly all of the household
goods were saved. Some things, highly
priced for their antiquity, and for the al
most sacred memories connected with them,
were destroyed; but the great bulk of the
furniture was rescued-more or less injured
it is true in the hurry and confusion-but
still saved. 1t was solemnly sad and
touching sight for the writer, who had so
many reasons to love the house, to see the
ruins illuminated by the burning of two
carloads of coal that bad been stored in the
basement, and which continued to burn for
several days and nights. Every easement
shone as if the house were lit up for some
joyous occasion-the columns stood ont bold
and massive in the glare, but every illusion
of beauty was dispelied by the knowledge
tina it was the funeral pyre o. associations
too hallowed ever to be forgotten-or de-
stroyed, as mortals look at things.
