again appeals TO me.
Now, L desire to say to the Editor oil

stable Burned.

About 80 o'clock last evening q
bright light wac noticed In an alley
that runs south from Walnut street
above Eighth, in which are several
stables, an those who had horses there
hastenedl with others to the spot TO try
and save their property. The fre was
found to b in a two story stable Owned
by James A. Anderson, and occup led
by Thomas Carroll.
The bull ling was quite long, and
. ear the frant there was a stall In which
Mr.. Carroll had his famous trottin 9
mare LiZzi. c., while In the rear there
was q manure pile. Those who got into
the bull ilg first say that the fire was
IN the open sp ice between the stall and
the manure pile, and ths rapidtty with
which it spr .ad WAS evi ience tlAt coal
oil had b ,en freely used, and that il
was the work of An incendiary.
Every effort was made to save the
mare, which was valued at 81. 500, but
without avail, and she persisted in the
flames. The burning stable adjoined
that Of l. w. Stidham & Son, and II
also caught fire, and in few minutes
more the flames reached a two story
frame house occupied by Joshua Mercer
and owned by sallie A. White, but
fortunately by this time the firemer
hal arrived and prevented what nigh,
have been a much more disastrous con
flsgration.
There were four or five horses in Std
hams stable, and several wagons and
carriages in the yard alongside, snd
they were all saved, but the building
and large stock Of hay was badly
damaged. The dwelling house, occu
pied BY Mercer, was burned on the sid,
and flooded with water, while Ander
sons stable was completely destroyed.
There was an insurance Of $500 on 1t
$1,000 on CAROLS mare. while Std
hams loss Is fully covered.
The fire created the greatest excite
ment in the vicinity, and In fact thu
entire lower part of the city, for tn,
flames could be plainly seen, and a
the burning stable was in direct lin
with the Opera House and but about on,
and a half squares below 1t, man,
thought that it was that building, an,
those who had friends there we're great
ly alarmed until they learned differently
1t was fully fifteen minutes after tn
flames were discovered by Mr.. Andei
son before an alarm was struck, and u
one seemed to think of the box 6
Tenth and Walnut streets, little ov,

ored people residing ON French AT

Ninth, were badly frightened, al
some of them screamed q" fire. al

. Base Ball In this CITY.

The amusement OF base ball in Viii.
mington has now become established on
healthy basis, and one which no one
can object 70. The young men of this
city take ian occasional day off and
play amateur games. There Is no
hiring Of professionals at high wages,
and no rowdy element connected with
1t. II Is In great part for amusement,
and If any ad m ission is charged 1t is
only trifie, to pay the expenses OF the
grounds and other necessary appli.
ances. A policeman is always present
to keep order. Two or three games a
week have been played during the last
month, and some OF the playing was
very creditable. There will probably
be three games next week, one on Mon
day, one on Thursday and one on
Saturday. As the charge, We think, IL
but ten cents for admission, there
should he good attendance OF those
who like 70 see the great American
game.
