FIRE AND RINK SENSATION.
Bowling Green the Center or Sens-
atisnnl Attraction.


During the past week Bowling Green
has enjoved the une ,viable reputation ot
stepping to the front in producing sens
aional matter. Two fres. . rink siope.
n,ent and second gas well ought to salts.
~ almost any community for one weeks
entertainment,
First came the fire about III r. NJ. FRI
day night which started IN the ants-rooln
Of the Knights Of Pithias Lodge, which
destroyed abont $400 worth OF property
belonging to the lodge, and 5000 private
perperIy OF the members, upon which
there was an insurance Of $500. The FIRE
burned through the floor and did consid-
cradle damage to the grocery stock Of Mr..
8. G. Cooley beneath the lodge room. Mr..
Cooley carried 81, 500 on stock aud build.
ing which will fully cover his loss.
Next came a skating rink elopement on
Saturday night, the night set for closing
the rink for the season. The principal. In
this sensational affair was Jas. w. Strouse,
a divorced widower aged rs years, with no
personal attractions, who in company with
Walter Coe, both liailing from Perry town
slip, built rink in Bowling Green early
In the winter and have since conducted II
with financial-and Sensational success.
The party OF the second part was Mis-,
Mabel West, bright little girl yet under
Is years of age, who makes her home with
her grandmother, Mrs. James Smith hel
mother having died when she was an in
FAINT. The eloplng couple drove TO Ton
togany where they took the late train fo
Deshler. While waiting for the B. & o
train at Deshler. Charley Ross, proPrie
tor Of the Ross House, recognized, the par
ties and mistrusting what was up sent then
to separate rooms for the night. In th'
morning he telegraphed to the friends o
the girl at Bowling Green who arrived
there on Sunday night, just in time TO fn'
that the couple had crawlei through tn
window and had skipped on the B & Q
train for Fostoria. Ross followed to Eos
toria where he learned that the romanti
couple had left the train at that point ant
had driven into the country. In compan
with the Marshal he proceeded to Strouse
home where the girl was found and return
ed 10 Deshler on NJ onday morning snd pu
in the care Of her G randmother and guard
ian. Tn the mean time Sheriff Brow
and Geo. Smith, the girls uncle, wer
searching in Michigan, whittier it wa
supposed they had gone for Michiga
marriage ceremony.
The third sensation was the attempt O
Samuel Rodabaugh to burn his saloon o,
Monday night. Rodabaugh halls iron
Toledo and has enjoyed very slende
reputation for honesty. He fitted f,nc
saloon Just east OF the Lease House las
fall but il is said he has failed to make
success OF it. He was captured at Tontoe
any the night OF the fire under very su,
picious circumstances, and now langnisl,e
in the b. G. Jail for the want Of $500 bail
He was heavily in debt to parties !

other side, the elaborate portal is fianked
by tall, round tower, with peaked
spire like those Of the Ciicquot Castle in the
champagne country; and beyond that again,
there stretches the brick wall of an inclosed
yard entered by an arched door OF heavy
paneled wood, like donjon gate. The win

are surrounded by thick vines OF Japanese ivy.
Between the house and the sidewalk the

Trees and Trimming.

To the Editor Of The EVENING STAR:
Our citizens are much indebted to the late
board of public works, and particularly to Alex.
K. Shepherd, the Napoleon of the day, who had
the boldness to carry through his great cam
paign, which for a time paralyzed our conserva-
tive citizens. The parking is one of the many
attractions Of Washington. The northern rules
are TO cut all branches hanging less than twelve
feet above the level of sidewalks or carriage
ways. The writer resides ON west p street, be.
tween 31st and 32d streets. The trees there
nearly meet, and all carriages or other covered
vehicles have to take the single city railroad
track as 1t is impossible to pass under the trees
branches hanging SO low obscure the gas lamps
anu make darkness scarcely visible.

Well, had Bayard voted for Burr IL would
have been the same. Burr and Jefferson were
both neutrality-suspicious.. Il is historical
fact that the federalsts uniting with the minor

six ballots, when Jefferson was overwhelmingly
the choice of his party. To the federaIs it was a

plaudits uttered by late visitors from Washing

roads over which they rolled. could not but ask
myself the question why the thousands of bush
els of oyster shells which annually left on the
hands of dealers here could not be put to SINH
lar account? We have the machinery for crush
Ing and rolling them in by wholesale SO that

George Bancroft has left his rose garden in
this city for his rose garden at Newport. His
collection Of the regal flower here is magnif-
cent, friends having sent him the new varieties
of the Old World, until his beds recall the roses
OF which Sappho sang, as they hang their heavy
heads with fragrance. There is the imperial
Jacqueminot, the queenly Lamarque, roses
that are of a royal purple, roses that are white,
and yellow roses that blaze like stars Moss
ALI varieties are represented, and the air is
filled with an exquisite odor. Mr.. Bancroft
passes an hour every morning among his floral
back ride attended by a mounted groom. LII
brarian Spohord, Of the Congressional Library,
