HOLMES CASTLE SET ON FIRE.
Believed to Have Eeen Fired to De-
strOY Evidences of Crime.

CHICAGO, H., Aug 19.-H. H. Holmes
Castle" at SixJy-third and Wallace
streets, which is said to have been the
scene Of numerous murders by the owner
was badly damaged by fire early this
morning. After an hour of hard work
the firemen succeeded IN getting the
flames under control The fire had it's
origin in the restaurant occupied by J.
FL. Barton, and was caused by the eX-
plosion of lamp.
An immense crowd gathered to wit
ness the fire and during its progress the
remarks of those present indicated that
the neighborhood was not in the least
sorry to be rid of the notorious building.
Some one caused considerable excite
ment for time by asking where the
Quinlan family was Pat Quinlan and
his wife and farmer owen were released
by the police Saturday but none of them
have been seen about the building since.
When the fire had eaten its way
through to the second floor it began to
consume the effects of the Quinlans and
for time, it was thought that some
member of the family might be in the
apartments. Investigation by the fire
men, however disclosed 40 sign Of life,
aud it was afterwards said that the
Quinlans had gone to the farm ia Michi-
gan, where their daughter Cora has been
staying since their arrest. The house
hold furniture of the Qlinlans was
wholly destroyed
Discoveries made by the police to day
led to the belief that the fire was Of in
cendiary origin. Several people living
near the burned building saw two men
enter the house shortly before the fire
broke ont and leave with great hasce.
a search of the place revealed half
can of gasoline in the secret stairway
leading to the basement, and search is
being made for the men who are sup
posed to have started the blaze.

An Evening With Amateur Actors and
Actresses at Williamson.

WILLIAMSON, N. O., Aug. 10.
On Thursday evening, August Is, the
beauty and youth of williamson assem-
bled in the spacious and artistically ar
ranged parlors of Col Wilson G. Lamb
to witness a number of tabeau scenes
that were original and interesting.
All the beauty and poetical inspiration
that music, art and sculpture lend to an
enchanted eye and ear was displayed in
pantomimic grandeur. All the fascina-
tion of idle Love" and the bliss of a
perfect welded life were presented in
dame Natures vernacular The "Four
Seasons with their varied and ever
changing lines were reproduced in living
pictures that were indicative Of the com
bined round O. happiness in spring,
peace in summer and joy IN autumn, but
the whole interpenetrated by the dread
sorrow of winter.
Nor were the performers unconscious
that their large and attentive audience
possessed faculty for the ludicrous, so
they interspersed the exercises with wit
and humor to check the progress of a
pathetic tear. 1.-The Twentieth Century
Woman was alive and demanded all
her rights, and while the relegated hus-
band stopped in graceful attitude over
the proverbial wash tub, hated ami
mostly marked every outline of his count
enance.
Miss Della Lambs rendition of the
Flower Girl" touched the sym
pathies of the entire and ap-
preciative audience. The applause was
continuous until the elocutionist returned
and favored them with comic selection,
''How Old Nose Counted the Eggs"
The comedy "Christian Anthems" was
so well rendered that Misses Virginia
and Dellg Lamb, Miss Moore, and
Messrs. Haughton and Herrick merit
especial mention for their talent in the
comedians art.
This, with a number of vocal and in-
strumental selections by the male or
chestra, and eau Revoir, but not good
bye" to the participants in the exercises,
closed an eventful and long-to be-re-
membered evening set apart in honor of
Miss Mae Wood, of Elizabeth City, N.

HARD LINES FOR GLUCK.
His Ncighbors Make Very Serious Charges
Against Him.

A remonstrance was filed Monday a
minute or so before the clerk of the
courts office was closed, protesting We
hemently against the granting of a
hotel license to Joseph GlucR. of Fell
township. 1t was signed by thirty resi-
dents of Fell.
The first and second reasons urged in
the remonstrance are that the place is
not necessary for the accommodation Of
the travelling public, and that it will
be an injury to the residents. But the
tame. They read as follows:
Third-,Nhat the said Joseph Gluck
sells liquor on Sundays as we'll as other
week days, and runs two pool tables
for drinks, and thus induces young men
who have not attained their majority
to enter his place and debauch them
selves.
runs his place of business for political
purposes and to bleed the various can
didmtes of both political parties.
Fifth-That the said Joseph Glucli
sells beer and liquor by the glass, quart,
gallon or keg in defiance of the law.
Sxth-That the said Joseph Gluclk
is incompetent to run the so-called
and riots frequently occur; that all the
windows and doors in his place of bust
ness We're broken and destroyed, and
the house almose raZed by the ruffians
who congregate in and about his place.

THAT FAMOUS WEDDING.

Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Your criticisms on Rev. Mr.. Peters
sermon are in part proper and right, II he
has been correctly reported. But is there
not something incongruous in a marriage
between an American girl and a titled
man OF foreign birth and belonging to a
class who are of very doubtful and un-
certain morals? What this Castellane
may be we can scarcely be sure anyway,
and as for the French nobility we can af-
firm unhesitatingly that prior to the
French revolution they were, as a class,
among the most pronigate set the world
ever saw. The dismantling of their pal
aces, their Punishment, and the execution
of so many of their number during the ter
rible days of the revolution, according 10
the verdict of history We're but the re-
suits of long career of profligacy and
wickedness. Moreover, what Significance
is there in such titles as marquis, count,
etc, in France, now that the old monarchy
has given place to a republic?
Is 1t not un-American to refer with such
Difference to the outward and empty titu-
lar dignity that decorates a race of idlers
and profigates? To say the least, it Is
sad TO think that American girls are so
often taken up with a class of foreigners,
whose regulations, as a class, are so doubt
full and whose views, as a rule, on the
ethics of marriage are so loose. 1t Is sure
ly unbecoming in Americans to assume an
attitude of Difference and admiration to-
ward the thin gift and the unmeaning dig
nifty of titled foreigners of the same class
as Castellane.
After all it may be that this marriage
and It's results are but a part of that pro-
cess of retributlon which runs tn 'ough
human life and history and that part,
tI,st q
so largely out of the plunder of Jay Gould,
is to be spent by titled and worthless no.
