a Young Ooidrod Girl Burned 20
Death ON Lombard street.


Emma Harris, colored girl aged IA
years, an orphan, living with the family
Of Joseph W. Brown, colored, at No. 1910
Lombard street. was fatally burned about
Q o'clock Saturday evening, by her clothes
taking fire from stove, and died about 4
O'Clock Sunday afternoon.
At the time of the accident the other
members Of the family were in bed, and
the girl, who was sitting beside the kitchen
stove, in which hot fire was burn
ing, had fallen asleep in her chair. Her
clothes caught fire from the stoyo, and
she awoke to lind her dress burning
briskly. She tried to extinguish the fire
with her hands, but failed, and becoming
frightened rushed up stairs, her move
ments causing the flames to spread with
frightful rapidity until they completely
enyeloped her. At the top of the stairs
she turned, ran down again, and then
out into Lombard street. She dashed up
TO Thirteenth, down to Twelfth and back
to the house, her agonizing shrieks of
pain arousing not only the Brown family
but residents of the entire neighborhood.
In front of the house she was caught by
several men, who extinguished the fire
with their coats and pieces of carpet, and
then carried her into the house.
DIR. Joseph p. Pyle was summoned and
found her injuries fatal. She was
burned from head to foot and had also
inhaled the flames. The doctor did all
he could to relieve her sufferings, and
rendered her condition az easy aspossible
until death ended her sufferings.
Deputy Coroner Smith investigated the
case and gave certificate of accidental
death from fire.

NYAoK, N. Y. Jan. 26.-The case of the
Rev. G.. r.. Bristor came before the grand
Jury of Rockland county this morning
and occupied all day. A vote was taken
this evening, and it is reported that an
Indictment was found against the pastor,
viii h will be officially announced TO the
court tomorrow morning. One of the
grand jurors is William H. Seaman, a
member of Mr.. Bristor's church. A new
movement is on foot among the friends
Of the Rev. G. Il. Bristor In the Spring
Valley Methodist Church TO "vindicate"
and keep him in their midst as
preacher, in case the Newark
Conference expels him. A CON-
mittee, composed of William II. Seaman,
Schuyler Westeryelt and other prominent
members of the church, are circulating
petitions in the village for the purpose of
getting signatures of persons who are in
favor of establishing Congregational
church there. The movement is going
OF lively rate, and the active parties in
IL say that they are certain TO succeed.
They say that so far as the Spring Valley
Methodist Church is concerned il might
ms well be closed, for they declare that
they shall not attend it, no matter who is
sent there as its pastor. "We want Mr..
Bristor or no one," say some of them,
as and will not listen to any one else" A
meeting to take further action in the mat
ter OF forming the new church will be
held on Friday evening of this week at
the residence of Mr.. Seaman, and it is
expected that lively time will follow.

Exciting Contests for Overseer OF the

Special Correspondence Of Gazette and Journal.
Dover, Jan. 26.-Local politics in and
around Dover has been blooming for
some time, and now the little bud has
almost matured into full-grown rose.
The fight that is being waged for overseer
of the almshouse is severe one and con-
corning the numbers engaged it is hard
to tell who will wear the successful white
feather. Nearly every hundred in the
county has sent forth n warrior with
battle-axe in hand, instructed to stand
firm and fight bravely and not give way
until the battle is either lost or won.
Thus commissioned, they have let no OPP
portunity slip by. but have taken ad-
vantage of all, and button-holed the
trustees until they have become mere
skeletons.
candidates for the office. II would take
up too much space in. your paper. The
trustees are all Democrats of the Simon
pure order, but 1 understand one or two
of the applicants have for several years
cast their lots with the Republicans. If
such be true, and have my authority
from good source, there is no need for
them to apply. They might as we'll cast
their pearls before swine. The vacancy
will not be filled until the next meeting
of the trustees, sometime next month.
Collector Nathan FL. Hutchins of this
hundred is now having more political
trouble, as James v. Boyer is after his
scalp. Mr.. Hutchins has been collector
for this hundred for four years and he
has given general satisfaction, but Mr..
Boyer thinks he has had it long enough
and that it is now time for him to hand
over the portfolio of his office to him.
Mr.. Hutchins, however, thinks otherwise
and for the last week or two he
has been unusually busy getting
names upon his petition. He has
secured the signatures of nearly all our
representative men, and he will go before
the levy court strongly endorsed for re-
appointment. At the same time, under
stand Mr.. Boyer has not been sleeping
away his time in idle dreams, but has put
his shoulder to the wheel with the deter
mination to win if possible. Mr.. Boyer
looks like man very determined, and one
that never undertakes anything unless he
hopes to win. By the time the levy court
is ready to meet these two gentlemen will
have on all the habiliments of war and
they will no doubt fight with that tenacity
which becomes two politicians.

open Executive Sessions.

Phnaueaphla evening letegrhph'
Senator Salisbury has never been
known as q humorist; il is doubtful, in
deed, if he ever joked in his life-at least
in public. 1t IL difficult, however, to
realize that the senior senator from Della
ware was in earnest when, as reported, in
opposing the proposition to consider
executive business in open session, he
gave as his reason that to do this would
be to imperil the respect in which the
Senate is now held by the people of the
country. II this has any sober meaning,
il is that the revelations which would fol
low would be ruinous to the personal
reputation of many members of the
Senate. This could only come from
the discovery of duplicity and
knayery, and, unhappily, there is
good reason for believing TINT
more than one distinguished member
would be pilloried before the country.
Heads of departments have recently init
mated that they could tales unfold which
would make certain alleged statesmen
wish thew had never been born.

the s15O,OOO Appropriation Avail
able-PreparinR Plans.

hobe.hhaft n AsAsa1s
1t has been learned from an official
source in Washington that the $3.50, 900
appropriation of the last Congress for
the erection of public buildings in Will
.mington is available and certain steps
have been taken which indicate that the
construction will be started probably
during the present year. 1t WIS reported
that, owing to some error in engrossing
the appropriation bill, the Wilmington
item was omitted, and there was some
fear that the omission would nullify that
portion of the bill, or at least cut off the
sum appropriated. This impression,
however, is said to be erroneous and the
money is now available.
The supervising architect has commu-
nicated with the authorities here request
ing them to forward to him the amount
of space required for the transaction of
the business of the post-office, custom
house, United States courts, and internal
revenue department. The heads of these
departments have prepared rough drafts
for the interior of the building, and with
the information requested have forwarded
them to Washington. Taking these plans
and figures as a basis, plans of the build
NIB WAL PAooupAy bc pAOPotSu hhu oub-
mitted for approval.
The site for the building is yet to be
procured, and in fact all the details are
yet to be arranged, but the question con-
corning the availability of the appropria-
ton having been removed ensures the
erection of new building here. The
total cost of the structure is yet to be
determined but, taking as precedent,
the erection of public buildings in other
cities, the first appropriation will proba-
bly, cover only the cost of the site and
laying the foundations. Upon the ques-
ton of location there is division of
opinion though it is fully conceded that
it should go on the west side of Market
street on corner and have fronts on
Market, Shipley and street running east
and west.

When they got about half way up the

the horse's back, but soon fell to the

hold of the bride reins. By this means
the horse was stopped andno one was hurt.

A stolen Team Captured by an
0fgicer and the Thief Arrested.

0hAAs1H AMAau AAA0 = 1hhBh AhD1ttue
The only occupant OF the dock at city
court when Judge Cummins opened pro-
ceedings, Tuesday, was John McLauRh-
lin,a sickly miserable lookingwretch, who
was arraigned on charge of stealing q
horse and milk wagon. Officer Retting
said he saw the prisoner with the team ut
Fourth aud French streets, and as he was
too drunk to drive with safety, he took
him in charge. On the way to police
station they met Alonzo G. d. Anderson,
colored, of Front and Union streets, who
claimed the team as his.
Anderson said that yesterday afternoon
he hitched his team to a tree on the cause
way, near the Wilmington q Northern
railroad track, and went off to attend TO
some business. In few minutes he
looked around and saw Mclaughlin UNI
hitch the team, turn it around and
drive away. He gave chase, but
the man drove too fast for him, and went
across the bridge so rapidly that Bridge
tender Morrison had to check him.
Anderson followed as fast as he
could and at Fourth and Market
streets met Officer Retting COM
ing up with the team and
the man who drove off with
it. The witness said the animal
was a fine bay mare, for which he would
not accept 5000; the wagon was worth
$130, and it contained buffalo robe
worth 1920 and whip worth 20 cents.
The prisoner, with a pitiful whimper,
said he did not steal the team, but found
it adrift on the causeway, with the lines
dragging, and drove it back to
the city with the laudable purpose of
finding the owner. He said he was on
his way to the almshouse at the time, and
exhibited a permit for his admission to
that institution, signed by j. M. Solo
mon. Judge Cummins held him
in 5000 for his appearance at the general
sessions court, and in default of bail he
was committed to New Castle Jail.
