FIRE.-The alarm Of fire about nine
o'clock last night was caused by the
burning of Mr. G.. Kicherer's slaughter
house, in Penny Hill lane, or Payne
street extended. The building and
most of its contents including an un
used steam engine and horse power.
were partially destroyed. The origin
of the fire is mystery, no one so far as
is known having been in the slaughter
mouse since o'clock yesterday even,
ing. The loss will reach about $500
which is covered by insurance. The
nearest fire plug to the burning build,
ing is on the corner of Patrick and
Gibbon streets, and ii would have taken
half an hour to have cotton some old
flag stones away from it could it have
been utilized. The slaughter house
was half mile from this point, in
Fairfax county. Neighhors aud some
Alexandrians with buckets and axe:
worked heroically and stayed the flames
before the entire structure was des
troVed.

SEMINARY HILL NOTES.

The Woman's Missionary Society
met Tuesday evening in Whittle Hail
and large number were present. Miss
Sally Stuart, diocesan secretary of the
Woman's Auxiliary, made a most in
teresting address. Miss Stuart has the
enthusiasm which is needed to carry on
anv great work, and her familiarity
with the workings of the society makes
her a most valuable and instructive
speaker. Miss Stuart was the guest OF
Mrs. Geo. Worthingtop.
The monthly meeting of the Stu
dents Missionary Society took place
Monday night in Prayer Hall. Mr.
Upton Thomas, OF Maryland, made the
first address which had for its theme
the wonderfully cousecrated life OF
Mary Moffatt, wife of Robert Moffatt,
the great African missionary, who, with
his wife, spent fifty years on the
dark continent. At the missionary
meeting in December Mr.. Snead gave
sketch of Miss Fay, who went from
Essex county, Va, to China. These
two women are said to be the first
whose missionary spirit has received
public recognition at the hands of the
students since the founding Of the Mis-
sionary Society. After Mr.. Thomas,
Mr.. W. K. Pendleton, of Virginia,
spoke of the great necessity of faith to
enable man to accomplish any great
work. The address was an admirable
one.
The first of the course of Reinecker
lectures will take place in Whittle Hall
on Tuesday next, January Odd. Bishop
Randolph, of Southern Virginia, will
deliver the inaugural lecture. 1t is
hoped that the attendance will not be
confined to students and professors, but
that the clergy and the friends of the
Seminary in Alexandria will be present.
The rain has broken up the ice on
the rink and put stop to the skating,
which was becoming fine.
Miss Mary Baker, of Alexandria, is
the guest of Mrs. Walker.
Miss Mittie Herbert is visiting her
brother, Col. Arthur Herbert, at Muck

sition of the Atlantic Gas Construction
Company to lease for ninety-nine years

report to Council Oh the night of Feb
ruary Goth and that the company max
ing the proposition be notified that
they might appear before the commit

great enemy of the mucous membrane. Neg

precede catarrh, causing an excessive flow of

will follow, such as. bad BREATH severe pain

JUST so.

Last night the sound of the jingling
sleigh bells, accompanied by musical
laughter of enwrapped and enraptured
maidens, and the less harmonious, but
more sonorous blaring of the tin trump
cts, whose blasts were blasted, 80 to
speak, by the hilarious swain, were
heard until a late hour. The roads and
the girls were fine; the horses and the
boys fresh and spirited. What more
would you? Oh! happy hours of youth,
beloved hours of pleasure, when the
warm blood leaps through every artery
and tingles back through every vein to
the rhythmic heart; when hours are
moments and dollars dust. Enjoy while
you may, you adolescent, the innocent
yet abundant joy of living.
As the playful puppy that chases his
tail and tunes up his bark, while his
skin seems not large enough to hold all
the pleasure that's in him, so the boy.
AS the kitten, beribboned; 80 soft to
the touch, SO large eyed and gentle, SO
soft purring and perfect for petting, and
withal so uncertain of temper, go the
girl. Alasl that the dog-days should
come for the boy, when hours are
aweary and dollars are washtubs for
size. Alas! that kittens should grow
into cats; that the kittenish purr
should in time give place to the shrek
of the feline maternal, and the velvety-
touch of the owldowny kitty should be
lost in the scratch of the adult-but
=, sileh is the case.
