It is said that in some parts of Asia, where
melons are much grown. they are ripened in the
dark by drawing the soil over them as they ap-
proach maturity. 1t is well known that some
fruits much improved in quality in the hot
houses by shading the glass during ripenng and
the experiment OF throwing earth 7er melons is
worth a trial next season.

STEAMBOAT HORROR.
From Forty to Sixty Lives Lost.

The steamer j. NJ. Witt, from Ncksbu@g,
Miss, u New Orleans, burned at 10 o'clock
Monday night at Blue stone Point Coupe,
thirty miles above Baton Rouge. She had
quite a number OF passengers aboard, 1850
bales OF cotton ana G,00O sacks Of seed. The
boat and cargo are a total less. The steamer,
which cost 1925, 900, was considered by many
as the finest boat ever run on the Mississippi
l1iyer. The boat was valued at $lO0, coo and
largo at 800, 900. The insurance on the boat
is $4,000 ana the cargo is undoubtedly fully
covered.
The boat had landed To take on a pile Of
cotton seed, ana there were between thirty-Gyc
and forty roustabouts engaged In this work,
when, precisely at 1918 o'clock, everybody
was startled by the loud ringing OF the bell by
the Waterman, Tom Miller. Immediately
after the cry of "Firen' was taken up by
twenty voices. In an instant the direst con
fusion reigned. Men dartod 10 and fro, and
the work Of a~rousing the sleeping passengers
was begun. The fire was discovered by
Thomas Barry, the second engineer, who, with
his partner, stephen Jsnney, was on watch at
tue llibe.
The FIRE burned with frlchtful rapidity, and
In less time than it takes 10 tell it the entire
left SIDE Of the boat was a mass Of flames.
The fire soon caught the railing of the cabin
deck, and before any assistance was TO be had
the boat looked as If she were e~ncircled by a
stream VI fire. The cracking OF the flames
and the shrieks of the passengers and crew
caused the most intense excitement. When
the alarm was first sounded, Alex McVsy, the
head co0s, was sitting at the steve in his
cabin. The first peal Of the EEL caused
him to rush outside, and seeing the
flames leap high in the air, he ran
back TO the cabin and eRdeavored TO
get the book fand money. The fire gained
rapidly en- him, and he was compelled o
leave the Office, but net before ke had secured
a sum Of money from the safe.
Col. S, l.. James, n passenger who was res
cued in a critical condition, positively de-
clared that there must have been sixty per.
sons lost, because out Of sixty-fve In the
cabin he could only see himself and four 9th.

The nocl. Band Concert.

Considering the deep snow and the intense
cold, the audience at Odd Fellows Hall on
Thursday evening was quite large. All who
brayed the weather were amply repaid, for
the concert given by the Rock Band Concert
Company was unique and charming through
out, and a succession of novelties from begin
ming to end. The Rock Harmonicon was the
chief attraction. The music was so soft and
delightful that many we're incredulous as to
its being produced from ordinary pieces OF
rock. After the first performance on the
harmonicon, Mr.. Till explained where the
rocks were found, how they were tuned, &C.,
and extended an invitation to the audience to
come on the stage and examine it, and straight
way the incredulity was dispelled. After the
entertainment nearly the whole audience
viewed the harmonicon, examined the rocks,
sounded the various pieces, and looked with
astopishment upon the crude-looking lnstru-
ment from which such delightful music was
produced. The airs played upon it were pop
ular and familiar, and the applause that fol
lowed each testified to the pleasurable appre-
citation of the audience.
Besides the harmonicon, the Company IN
troduced number of other Instruments, all
rare, and in addition rendered some excellent
vocal music-solos, Duets and quartettes.
No entertainment here for some years was SO
interesting and charming.
As before stated, this is the last entertain,
ment this winter under the management OF
Messrs. Merrill and Vanderford. The object
of the entertainments was not financial gam,
but to have some amusements of high and
chaste character to relieve somewhat the
tedium of the winter months. While the re-
ceipts have not been equal to the expendi-
tures. the committee have the satisfaction oil
knowing that they have contributed something
to the pleasure of the community, and have
presented three attractions that have been
greatly enjoyed by all who attended them.
