General Watts Residence Burned.

CHARLESTON, w. VA, Feb. t.
This afternoon, while the family of
United States District Attorney G.
c. Watts was at dinner, an explosion
was heard from the cellar. The Gen.
erals brother fastened to the east
end of the house to find out what
was the matter, and was met by a
volume of smoke rolling from the
cellar. He FASTENED back and alarm.
ed the family, who were soon in a
place of safety. In remarkably
short time after the explosion the
lower part of the building was in
flames, which had gotten under head
way so that nothing could check
them. A great many of the books
and some of the furniture were got
ten out. General Watts, who was
over in the city at the time, FASTENED
home, but was powerless to do any,
thing, as also was the fire company,
as there was no water supply. No
one knows how the fire originated.
General Watts says there was moth
ing explosive in the cellar, 10 his
knowledge. The beautiful house was
literally burned to the ground. Tie
building was insured for $3,700. but
the total loss is far in excess of the
insurance.

In Favor of the Baltimore & Ohio.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 81. Wilson
Martin sustained personal injuries in
an accident on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad and brought suit
against the company in a State
court in West Virginia to recover
damages. The case was transferred
to the Circuit Court of the United
States, where verdict was found fol
the defendant. An appeal was pray
ed to the Supreme Court of the
United States. In the meantime
Martin died, and his administrator
was substituted to prosecute the
point of error.
Justice Gray to day announced
the opinion of the court that under
the laws of West Virginia right ola,
ton for personal injuries abated
with the death of the person, and
therefore directed that the writ
abate and the appeal be dismissed.
BE also stated that the court had
found that the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company is a resident OF
the State of Maryland alone.
Justice Harlan dissented from the
reasoning of the court but concurred
in the conclusion reached.

LIB. GEO. w. CHLLDS.

The death of Mr.. Childs, on Sat-
urday last, eyokes not only regret
for the void vacancy that he leaves,
but tribute TO his worth as a man,
thoroughly Industrious and very lib
eral with his earnings, where good
could be accomplished. Starting
life as penniless boy, he worked
his way to the head and ownership
Of great daily paper, the Philadel.
phia Ledger and by indomitable en-
ergy and eeaseless industry, builded
for himself good name, an excel
lent reputation and earned large
fortune, the most of which he had
the grand pleasure of generously dis
tributing with his own hands. Per.
sons who get up ''out Of the depths
realize the necessities of struggling
humanity, and are willing to cast life
lines of help. Mr.. Childs did this
bountifully and his decease was
marked by many tears and memory
of him will be kept green by those
who come after in the institutions
that he befrien3ed.

BURNING POWDER.

The people at Rio de Janeiro,
Brazil, continued burning powder
and always fail to hurt each other.
How so much explosion can 60 on
and no person get hurt looks fqrci-
cal. Let them have a good, stiff,
straight old fight, and decide mat
tiers. We note that when the U. S.
Cruiser Detroit went to protect
American vessels, it didn't take long
to put shot in the insurgent ship.
1t looks like Uncle Sans gunners
meant business and the other fellows
foolishEess. Get down to business

ward Wilson, nine years old, has
been missing from his home in this
city, since Monday last. On the
morning of that day he started to
school, but never returned. 1t
was at first supposed that the lad
had gone skating and had been
drowned, but an examination of the
skating places around town failed to
confirm this. The latest theory is
that the boy had been persuaded to
go away with some strangers.
