is pitched.
The Biiou was crowded to its utmost
capacty last night by an enthusiastic
audience, TO witness Bartlcy Campbcll's
popular play, The White Slave, people
having been turned away carly in the
evening. The play is not new to Wash

scnted here before, but for all that, its
hold on the public remains as firm as
ever. The story of the play is told in
Mr.. Campbell's best style and with those
auXiliaricS that always please viz !:
elaborate scenery, startling mechanical
effects and an excellent cast. II Is no

The eXcursionists, who went to City

treated to scene that was alone worth
the price of the excursion ticket. They
had just landed from the steamer Flor

through the air, and caused them to
run in the direction of the old Young
Mansien, ,AYlrom which dense clouds of
smoke were issuing.
The fire was started by an old colored
vmah -nhmed William Wood He was
drawing some gasoline from Darrell in
the basement and had placed his lamp
close to the mouth of the can. The oil
ignitcd and the old man fled yelling
Fire" No attempt was made to stop
the fire by those in the grounds as it
had gained too much hcadway. llar-
bor-master Sutton and the Police boat
came down in short order, but all efforts
to subduc the flames were useless.
Most of the furniture was saved, but

his family. The loss to the building,
which is owned by w. a. Jackson, the
grocer, is estimated at 81 0,000, and Mr.
