WAS A GREAT SUCCESS.
The Closing Concert Given by
Prof. DAM

one of the best, if not the best, con-
cert ever given by Prof. Danz was lis
tened to by a most enthusiasts site audi
ence at Harmonic hall yesterday after
ernoon. The concert was an addition
TO the regular winter series, and the
programme was made UP of selections
that received the highest number of
votes from the audience at the last
concert of the regular series.
The crowded house was put in good
humor by the march Honeymoon by
Rosey The overture William Telr'
was received, and deservedly, with
storms Of applause, the length of the
programme alone preventing an encore.
Lost Happiness" by Gillet was per-
fectly rendered by the string orchestra,
and was as sweet a piece of music as
could well be imagined. The audience
insisted upon an encore to the Scene
de Bali from Charlotte Corday.' The
concert closed with the overture to
''Tannhauser," and it was a most fit
ting ending to an already perfect con-
cert.
Prof. Danz cannot be given too much
credit for the excellent musicians that
he has succeeded in bringing together
and the perfect organization that this
concert shows them to be under.
1t is certain that next winters con-
certs will have to be given in larger
hall than Harmonic, as the audience
has certainly outgrown his present
quarters.

KENTUCKY FOREST FIRES,
Several People Are known to
Have Persisted


CINCINNATI, O., March 31.-The
Commercial Gazette's specials from
points in Western Kentucky and South
ern Indiana report that the forest
fires are still raging, but definite in
formation from any locality is lacking.
The loss is estimated at $500, 600 in
Kentucky and less in Indiana. Dis
patches from Bowling Green, KY, say
that eight miles from there the homes
of Otis Smith, James Waters and Hen
ny Eiler were burned after 500 acres
of timber was swept away. The fam
lilies escaped on horses. Henry Eiler
was so badly burned that he died, and
a negro farmer persisted on Eiler's
farm. AT Anetta and Blowtown large
tracts of timber were burned, and
William Edwards, colored, was burned
to death. Since the burning of James
V. Penny's house in Indiana his wife
has been missing, and is now believed
to have persisted in the woods while
trying to escape. In Clark county, In
diana, the farms of Bates and Weber
were burned over, causing a loss OF
$4,000. The death of Eiler and the two
negroes and that of Mrs. Penny, in
addition to those reported yesterday
make three white men, two negroes
and one woman lost. While the farm
ers have been blowing and doing every
thing today to prevent the spreading
of fires, and there is no doubt of thei1
loss and danger, yet it is believed that
greatly exaggerated reports of the fires
have been circulated.

people in the neighborhood of Hadley
Warren county, KY, are fighting a
bad forest fire with very little success.

Spanish estimates place the insurgent

as there were only 5000 permanently

Long at Time.
Frazier, the man who tipped off the
hold-up of the Cincinnati Southern
train Tuesday night, is now in jail here,
having been arrested at the residence
OF James Owens, twenty miles west of
this place, by Deputy Sheriff Sump-
ter. A warrant was sworn out by
Daniel New before County Judge Cat
ron for grand larceny, and placed i'll
Sumpter's hands, who soon located his
man, and Saturday at midnight ar
rived here and turned him over to
Jailer Catron. New, who swore out the
warrant, is related to the Morrows,
and claims that the horses used, for the
robbery belonged to Mrs Morrow.
while Frazier states he bought them
from Jerry Morrow. 1t is doubtful if
the charge can be sustained Frazier

him or to his identity, or to the
identity of the man then dead at the
city hospital. Believing that the
only way to get at the truth of the
whole affair was by arresting every
person in the joint, Inspector Court
ney and Officer James Novack went
to Della Whitcomb's room at Fourth
avenue south and Washington and
arrested her, in company with a
young man named Prior, employed
in ST. Paul. Two other women, Nellie
Lee and Mabel Miller, were arrested
still later at the Central lodging
house on First avenue south by the
inspector and Sergeant Rankin, with
Officer Monitor. With them were ar
rested two men giving the names of
Ed P. Lee and Henry Carmaf, and
all four of these were charged with
fornication. Lizzie O'Connors, wife
of Jim O'Connors, was next arrested
at 223 and held on suspicion.

search for the dead mans partner,
hoping thus to obtain some clue to

All day long yesterday the police
worked trying to pump something
out of the arrested parties, and in
searching for BLACK Minnie and
two other men who were in the place.

LANDMARK SCORCHED.
The Old Chicago Times Building
Damaged by Fire.

r CHICAGO, March 31.-The northern
portion Of the old Times building, a
five story stone structure, was damaged
to the extent of $4,000 by fire this aft
Is ernoon. At the early stages of the
fire, it looked very much as if this old
Landmark of Chicago would be de-
stroyed, and it was only by extremely
energetic efforts that it was confined
[Eto the above loss. The publishing
irooms of the Journal of the American
y Medical association were entirely
out. Max Storm, printers and
zstationers, and half dozen printing
: firms were also badly damaged. The
quarters of the Freie Presse, a German
daily paper, were thoroughly soaked
out, but they have managed tonight to
put the premises into shape. The
Times building is owned by John W.
Blodgett, of Grand Rapids, Mich. His
loss is estimated at $4,000. The losses
were fully covered by insurance.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., O., March
S1.-A west-bound freight train was
wrecked on the Pan Handle about a
mile east of here this morning, and
four young men were seriously, if
not fatally, injured. John Wilson,
aged twenty-five, a barber, living
at Tuscarawas; Oscar Hursey, aged
nineteen, son of Squire Hursey, post
master at Booth; William Mercer
and Willis Berkshire, both of the
latter place, all walked three miles
to Uhrichsville to catch a freight for
NeWcomerStOwn. The men all stood
on the end sill of a car about mid
way of the train. AS the train ap-
preached the siding to pull in for the
limited, the engineer found he was
running at a high rate of speed, and
made an emergency stop. The
force broke car coupling just in
front of the one the men were on,
and they were allowed to drop al
most into the jaws of death. VIII
son went off on the left side and was
twirled into the ditch. A car over
turned upon him, and, had it not
been for the excavation he would
have been crushed to death. He
has bad face and scalp wound, be-
sides internal injuries. which make
his recovery hopeless, Berkshire
was pinned to the rail on the other
side, and, in trying to pull his legs
loose, found them both off below the
knees. Hursey's right arm was
broken in two places. Berkshire
took his coat off, wrapped it about
his severed limbs, and laid down to
await surgical aid or to die Mercer
has internal injuries, the severity of
which cannot be told yet. Berkshire
will die, and Wilson is in hopeless
condition. Three cars were demol-
iished and several others damaged.
