Fire in London, England, near Black
triars bridge, caused loss of S2,000,000.
1t started on Queen Victoria street, and
spreading on both sides soon developed four
large blocks. The fire department was
utterly unable to check the ire, which
really burned itself out. Twenty steam fire
engines were on the grounds and number
OF old hand engines, but the latter were
uselcss. The phenomenally cold
weather greatly hampered the
efforts OF the flrcmen, the water
freezing III the engines md many OF the men
having their bands and other parts OF their
bodies frozen.e The horsemen had TO be
dashed 10 the ladders. their hands being 40
benumbcd that they could not grasp the
supports. The headquarters Of the saliva
ton army were threatened. but were finally
snvcd.
While this fire was IN progress there was
an extensive conflagration in the suburb OF
Hackney. Several largo tanks Of spirits exc
plodcd. The shock was felt in London, five
miles away. The loss Is s300.00O.

long after that she gave q concert herself,
unaided, and made $40, which she took
home to her mother. Then for time she
taught n country school; but finding that
she could not sufficiently relieve the poverty
of her parents in that way, she resumed
singing, going from town to town, giving
musical entertainments wherever she could
find an audience. She had many rough
experiences in those days, and endured
much suffering. She kept on, and finally
reached New York, where Clara Louise
Kellogg heard her sing, and became her
friend and benefactress. Miss Abbott
studied under Ernani, and was fortunate
enough to get a position in DIR. Chapin's
church. There she made many friends, and
through them was enabled to go to Europe
and study music under San Giovanni,
Wartel, and others in Italy and France.
She sung with success in Florence, London,
and elsewhere in Europe, and was engaged
for three years by Mapleson. Returning
to her native country she entered upon
the career with the success of which all are
familiar. Her principal roles were Mignon,
Lucia, Linda, Martha, Zerlina, Juliet,
Leonora, and Virginia. She was married
to Mr.. Eugene Wetherell, who died in
Denver about two years ago. By economy
and shrewd investments she accumulated
fortune of about 1000. 900.

the hospitality Of the citizens is taxed to
the utmost.
In accordance with the desire of the in
coming governor the ceremonies were of the
simplest description and for tho first time
in many years the inaugural address was
dispensed with. On arriving in Madison
the governor-elect was met at the depot by
the committee of arrangements, headed by
Mayor Bashford, of this city, and was es-
corted up the hill to the state house by
an immense procession with music and
bunting galore. After a short wait Mr..
Peck and the various State officers-elect
were escorted to the Assembly Chamber,
where the oath Of Office was administered
by Chief Justice Cole. They then returned
to their respective offices, where informal
receptions were held
The inauguration ball was held in the

GEN. SPINNER HAD REVENGE.
he Succeeded I'm Having nm Enemy
Lcgislated Out OF Office.

The late General Francis T.. Spinner
was the son of Lutheran clergyman,
but this did not prevent him from DIX
pressing his views in forcible English at
times. In March, 1861, just after Salmon
p. Chase had been made Secretary of the
Treasury by President Lincoln, Gen. Spin
ner was selected as United States Treasurer.
He had during his life as a member of
the Lower House of Congress been an
ardent abolitionist, and had made him
self particularly obnoxious to the South
ern pro-slavery element. AS soon as his
commission was handed him he went to the
courthouse and approached Judge Merrick,
who was then on the bench as Associate
Judge of the United States Circuit Court
for the District of Columbia. ~ have
come to take the oath of ofiice,n said Mr..
Spinner, land / should like for you to adj
minister it," Merrick replied that he would
do nothing of the kind, and upon inquiring
the reason Spinner was informed that the
Judge was opposed to his views as an
abolitionist and that he would have moth
ing to do with him.
docs not Congress, as part of your
duty, prescribe that you shall administer
the oath of allegiance to Federal up
pointees!" inquired Mr. Spinner.
Yes, said Merrick, but Congress can
not compel mo to administer the oath or to
have anything to do with man as per-
sonally distasteful as you are.''
Congress may not be ablo to force you
to administer the oath to me, said Spin
ner, ''but there is ono thing it can do. 1t
can abolish your did old court, and / will
see that it is done.'' He found another
official competent to administer the oath,
and when no had spare time he went up to
the capitol and got friend of his to in
troduce bill to abolish the Circuit court of
the District of Columbia and to create the
Supreme court of the District of Columbia.
This bill was passed and signed by the
President, and Judge Merrick was thereby
legislated out Of Office

The Finale of Some Editorial Amen

tiles at Lancaster.
Correspondence to the HERALD
Yesterday occurred one of the most
interesting and amusing trials in the
history of Lancaster, in the case of the
People vs. S. Y. Lee. Lee was arrested
on complaint sworn out by G. B. Ladd,
editor of the Antelope Valley Times,
charging him with having published in
the Lancaster Gazette criminal libel
against the Times editor. Court was
called to order by Judge N. A. Morris,
deputy district attorney E. X. Blades,
assisted by the:complaining witness, con-
Quoting the prosecution, and r. A. Ling
of Los Angeles, appearing for the de-
fense. After all the evidence was in
Lee was acquitted. Immediately upon
rendering the decision cheer after cheer
was given, plainly showing that in the
eyes of the public the Gazette had not
published libel. This case grew out
of publication in the Gazette in which
a correspondent said that certain
member of the bar, who also thought he
knew how to run newspaper, while
out hunting broncos, had entered a
house in the absence of the family and
proceeded to eat up everything in sight.
Ladd having actually been in the neigh
borhood hunting broncos and passed the
house in question, said the article re-
ferred to him, and Immediately had Lee
arrested. This trial furnished consider
able amusement for the citizens, who
laughed until their sides were sore.
While Judge Morris is young man, he
deserves much credit for the able man
ner in which he conducted this case.
