Theaters In Chicago.
CHICAGO, August 26th.-McVicker's Thea
ter building was entirely destroyed by fire
at an early hour this morning. As soon as
the blaze was discovered an alarm was
sounded, but the flames spread with such

ment arrived it was past all control, and
the magnificent building was soon in
ruins.

most popular theaters in Chicago. 1t had
seating capacity of about 1000. Only a
short time ago the management remodeled
the interior at cost of $4,000. 1t was
finished in terra Gotta and gold, and was
considered to be one of the most elegant
theaters in America.

management, has been running to crowded
houses there for the past three months.
Everything was lost. but Hayman luckily
had duplicate set of scenery, which he
will use at the production of the piece in

800 persons gathered near the village of
Perryville this afternoon to see DR.. Justin
of this city fire his patent dynamite shell.
On May 9th when DR.. Justin gave pub

the spectators had fine view of cannon
weighing 1000 pounds being blown into

fourth shot. Many persons were within
twenty rods of the gun, but none were
hurt The first three shots fired were g
success.

mite before it left the gun was caused by
imperfections in the shells. He will en-
deavor to secure shell made entirely of
forged steel

A correspondent of the st. Louis Globe
Democrat tells how to keep bouquets fresh
for several days: In the first place put
little salt, tablespoonful or more, in the
bottom of the vase. Then l fill the vase
with ice broken into pieces of the size of a
walnut. On this put the bouquet, the
same as you put the stems into glass of
water. l never put any water in the vase,
however. Enough comes from the melt

The Switchmen in the Chicago Stock
Yards Walk Out.
CHICAGO, August 26th.-The engineer:
and firemen in the stock yards who have
been on strike, returned to work yester
day. Last night the switchmen, thinking
the time propitious for the demand of ar
increase in wages, and hoping to profit by
the victory of the firemen and engineers
struck, and the stock yards of the railway
are once more tied up.
NEW PHASE
CHICAGO, August 26th.-The switchmen
of the Stock Yards Switching Association
after the adjustment of the grievances OF
the engineers and firemen yesterday, put a
new phase on the situation, and this morn.
ing it was decided to dissolve the associa
ton and allow each road to do its own
switching. The old men were told tha,
their services were no longer needed and
others were procured to do the switching
Superintendent Marsh went to the Stock
Yards this morning at the head of 300 men
to take charge of the police arrangements
there, and see that no acts of violence were
committed by the strikers.
THE STRIKERS GIVE UP.
The strikers have given up the fight
They will this afternoon send committee
to the railroads, asking to be taken back at
the old rate of wages.
LATER The rumor that the striking
stock yards switchmen bad repented Of
their haste and asked to be taken back BY
the Switching Association at the old rate
of wages is untrue The roads have dis
solved their Switching Association, and
say that each road will hereafter
do its own switching. 1t is DoH
question whether the employees
of the different railroads will agree
to take the places of the strikers tha
formerly composed the employees of the
Switching Association. Should the railroad
men refuse, every road entering Chicago
may be tied up before forty, eight hours.
