 Douglas, April 13.-Quite a little excitement prevailed at Tenth and H yesterday afternoon. when a small blaze was discovered under the board sidewalk at O'Neill's cigar stand The fire was soon extinguished, how ever, without the slightest damage It was undoubtedly started by the careless dropping of a lighted match from the hand of some smoker. Too much care can not be observed by smokers, in view of the fact that our sidewalks are mostly wooden, es- pecially on Tenth street. where the business of the city centers.
 A slight commotion, attended with no little danger, was raised at the circus Saturday night when some of the upper tiers of seats collapsed, pre-. cipitating a score or more of specta, tors to the ground. Fortunately, no serious accident resulted One boy is reported to be suffering from a bad bruise of the leg.
 The great decapod tandem com pound locomotive of the E. P. & S " arrived from the Baldwin works al Philadelphia Saturday, and was turned over to the railroad author. ities by Mir Cramer, the Baldwin rep resentative. The more than human piece of machinery is beauty as railroad engines are judged, and has held the boys of the craft in awe by it's handsome lines and powerful but delicately adjusted mechanism. The new loco is numbered 26 but will be popularly referred to by the boys as "Old Easter Sunday" as she was first steamed up on that day. The drive wheels of the monster are ten. as the term decapod would imply and are each fortg-eight inches in diameter. Besides the drivers, there are four wheels on the pony trucks Her cylinders are twenty-eight inches in diameter, and are arranged in tan dem, according to the latest preva- lent ideas of the best mechanical en- gineers.
 Here are few of Easter Sun day's'' dimensions: Height tto tor of smokestack) 2s feet; length over all, s5 feet; length of tender, 20 feet weight. 145 tone QighD. 1sO tons (loaded); capacity of tender. IS tons of coal and 1000 gallons water. She had her trial trip today, but owing te her extreme weight and the lightness of the rails, could not be let out There are so far but five locomotives of the same type as 26. and the other four are under process of construc ton for the E. P. & s. W. This road will be obliged to equip with much heavier steel when the big ones are running regularly
