A BAD BLAZE.
In Which a Six Months Old Babe
is Nearly Cremated.

About nine o'clock yesterday morning
an alarm of FIRE called the department, TO
the corner OF Fourth and Lamipe streets,
where il was discovered that the hand
some resi- fence of Mr.. John +. Smith, the
old aud we'll kuosn X. d I. fireman, was
fast being consumed. OTing 20 the intlam
able nature of the frame portion OF the
building where the conhagrstion began
from SD ,rks from a detective fiue, the best
efforts Of the FIRE brigade proved futile 10
save the structure watch was entirely con
sumed together with is conteuts, tie brick
walls of the front building being The only
portion left intact. Mr.. smith says his
loss on the building will amount to 1900
and on the furniture 10 $500, the insurance
being 81 900 on The building and 500 Oh
the furniture.
At the time the fire commenced all The
members OF The family except Mrs. Ines
Peterfsh's six months Old babe, were I'M
fortunately in The front part of the house.
The infant had been tied in chair in a
middle room near stove connecting with
The defective fiue which caused the disaster,
and the first notice the family had of the
impe 1ding danger, was through the cries 81
the babe, which drew them 10 il Just as il
was about 10 suff' cate from the smoke and
when the terribl- fla mes had almost WRAPPED
the rear structure in their embrace. The
babe was rescued with difficulty, its cloth
ing having already iguiled, and its head
being badly burned. Physicians who
dressed its wounds, however. say it is not
fatally injured.
Mr. Smith requests the BAzoo to return
his heartfelt thanks to bis many neighbors
ard to the fire department for their prompt,
energetic and kindly aid at a moment
when so much was needed, and to say it
will ever live as grateful remembrance in
his Leart. The family have temporarily
removed to rooms on Ohio street opposite
the Leroy house. Mr.. Smith will iebuil
as soon as the weather will permit.

The case of John DolsD, who has ac-
quired so much celebrity of late bv his sue
cessful deals in poultry and hog I5ss be-
longing to other people, was cliica up in
Justice O'Brien's court yesterday. DOlan
was charged with stealing twensy five
pieces of bacon from Mr.. BIN Station, two
pieces of which ha5 been found and identi-
fed, one at the residence Of John White
and the other at Stephen Browns. Both
,EeSe parties appeared as witnesses as well
as a number of other cOlored men and the
white parties who had been made losers BY
Dolan's depredalions. The evidence was oil
a very conclusive character and resulted in
Dolan's being recommitt.d TO Jail in default
Of $500 bail TO await the meeting of the
criminal court. As the matter now stands
it looks very much as if Dolan would have
sn opportunity to try his skill at rob-

The Lesson in It.

A gentleman who came in from the
Houslonia neighborhood yesterday stated
TO a reporter that the present winter was
the most severe upon stock, especially upon
graded. of any ever experienced in his sec
lion, and but for the fact that there was O
plentiful supply of feed much loss would
have ensued, but as it is there will be but
few cattle that cannot weather through.
The amount of feed consumed TO attain
this end, he says, will average fully one.
third more than that Of previous winters.
He further says this fact has not only
caused attention and comment, but hss
demonstrated so thoroughly and practically
the advantages Of good shelter for sill stock
that nearly every leading stock raiser will
the coming summer prepare il. He has
ordered for his own use already 100000
feet Of lumber, with which he proposes 70
at once erect sheds on his dividing line
fence similar to those used for stalls st the
fair grounds, and to which his stock will
have free access at all times.
