Tu thé report of the fire at the corner of Michigan snd Frauklin streets last Thursday: gome few mistakes were made in sivioe the Tmmes of the ocenpants of the building. The place is owned by the Hirh estate, and the first firor aud hasem are occunied br Messrs. . Shumayay s, proprietors of the Centi- newal® By cturinge Works.

How far is the Fourth of July trom Washington’s birthday?” The young man instantly responded, *Ope hundred and thirty-two daye, unless it's Jeap-yearn” Very well,” said the old gentleman,” and how easy far isit to Washington’s birthday from the gth of July, ete.#” The younz man retired to ponder over this curious discrepancy in the Gregzorian calendar, and supsequently said that it was pitiable o see an 0ld man with one foot in the grave making a buficon of himself. A recular meeting of the County Board of Education was held - yesterday, with Commis— sioner Lewis in the chair. There were also vresent Messrs. Thompson, Eberbart, Senve, and Lane. On motion of Commissioner Thomp- con, the appointment of W. C. Dudge as assist- unt o the natural ecience aud training depart— met, at $75_per mooth, was confirmed. ‘The pay-roll for January, amounting to $1,030, was read and approved, and the Board adjourned for oncmonth. Yesterday afterrioon, at the close of court, Judee Blodgett announced that he would have o call of his calendar until further notice, and that the jury would be discpargzed until notified to meet acaio. ‘This action was taken on ac- count of the expected arrival of the Proctor Knott Committee on their investigation, sud the Judse thonght it proper not to hold court while the Committee was sitting bere. It is understood that he will not even be in court to hear motios, though be will -probably consent to make any necessary orders. Mr. Bishop. as usual, will attend to the routine work and mo- tions of course. The application for an injunction to restrain Tappan, . McKillop & Co. from issuing their January Book of Ratings was withdrawn on Saturday by complainant before a hearinz could be obtained in court. As the allegations in the complaint were not very flattering to the pub- lishers of the Book of Ratings, the ‘backing out ™ of complawant has a queer look toit. It is generally understood bv business men in this city that complainagt, who_bails from New Jer- sey, is the attorney for a rival agency, and that the whole thing is'a * put-up job " to iniur'c the business and reputation of Tappan, MeKillop & Co. Such conduct is not_honorable compe- uition, and must redound to the damage of the perpetrators of the outrage. “The first annual exhibit of the Western Poul- try Club, which has been held at 63 Washing- ton street, was conclnded last night. The Ex- ecutivesCommittee of the Association will con- vene this week, and _determine upon when the next fair will be held. The prizes will be paid a5 svon as the returns -of ‘the- judges are all in. During the past three days’ the attendarce has been very large, and the success of the venture in a pecuniary point of view assured. As an | exnibition of the superior_quality of “stock bred in the West, the fair has beecn an unprece- dented success, the judges in many instances debating the award of prizes. ‘The entries will be returned to exhibitors to-morrow, and the affairs be finally wound up. ©Qld Pap” Seaman, a familiar face about town for several years_past, died at the County Hospital ou Friday. He was in his better days 2n actor and stage manager, and was aman much respected in the profession. Misfortune overtook him, and the old man has been living in penury for some time. Not long ago, it will ve remembered, he acquired a temporary no- torjety in connection with a matter in whi the actor James O'Neill figured, whose baby the old man had taken to his beart for the sire’s sake, the sire having been long ‘personal friend of the rising vouug actor. * Old Pap” was recently seen around some of his familiar baunts, but the fell sergeant finally came with the death warrant, and the old man was probu- bly pleased to go. A subscription wss taken up yesterday among; the professional people to de- Tray the expenses of his funeral. The Executive Committee of the charitable institatious proposing to give a ‘‘Carnival of Authors » held an adjourned meeting vesterday morning in the club-room of the Sherman hoose. After some general discussion of the nerds of the work, Mrs. E. G. Clark read a let~ ter from Mr. Fraok Pease, of Buffalo, the origi- nator of this style of entertainment, makioy several proposals for conducting the Carnival. He is to be in this city about the middle of February, and the ladics Wil meet bim at that time for conmsultation. The Secretary was in- structed to inform the gentiemen that the ladies would meet him at that time, and the meeting was sccordingly adjourned until then, after appointing Mesdames Clark, Tooker, Goudy, and Colton as u committee to correspoud with Mr. Pease on the subject. The time and place of holding the next mecting will be announced hereafter. A beautiful Chicago girl went out to visit her erundparents at Garden Prairie last week, and 1he old people guvea little party to celebrate the oceasion. ‘Uhe young lady dressed hersell up -claborately for” the occasion, and placed a gmall hue of black under each eve to give her- self 1he appearance much coveted among fash- jonable people of baving run against a lamp- post or been walking 2,700 consecutive quarter- miles in 2,700 consecutive quarter-hours. When <he went, down stairs to the parlor, the old lady scratinized ber closely through her spectacles, and & said, pityinuly, * Poor thinz, poor thing, and no woucer, either, with all the trash she eats, but a few boxes of them ’ere vermi- fuge lozenges ’ll cure her, if she bas got the symptoms bad as any one 1 ever see in all my old life.” The regular monthbly meeting of the Hotel- Eeepers' Association of Chicago was announced to take place at 8 v'clock vesterday afternoon, in the editorial rooms of the Nativnal Hotel fte- porter, on Washington strect, but, as there lacked two of being a quorum, those assembled adjcurned at about 4 o'clock without trapsact- ing any busivess of a formal pature. The prio- cipal matters to receive attention at this meetiuz was the appointing of a committee to visi: Sprinzfield, and uree the passage through the Legusiature of a substitute for 8 botel lav, which nas been drawn up by the hotel men of this city with a view of protecting themselves, aud 2l hotel men in the State, from dead-beats. J. L. Woodeock. of the Matteson House, had been appointed on this Committee, but he was_obliged to go to Florida: conse- quently it is arranged that Jewett Wilcox, of the Tromonut, and J. W. Scott, of the Hotel Ke- porier, shall =o to the Capital this week and fur- ther the interests of the bill. A rather amusing rencontre took place last cvening in the green-room of the Metropolitan Theatre. A well-known merchant of this city, whose taste lies in the direction of the varicty stage, hsd meandered from the auditorium Gown to the basement, as he saig, in scarch of Joe Walker’s becr-keg, when be found bimself smong the actresses’ dressing-rooms. Oue o them, & very bright, pretty young girl, invited bim to sit_down, and the old gentleman, uothing loath, eotered.into a cheerful coalab with the syren. It 5o bappencd that the son of the old man, who is. known ds a pretly bad cge, bad straved into these for- bidden precincts in search of a little flame of his in. company with oue of the proprictors. He was rather taken aback when he tebeld his venerable parent usurping the place hie was secking by the side oL the fair one. Thie old man hadn’t a word to say, but invited the boys out und gave the boy an order Jor 2 new hat and a box of his choicest cigars if he woula promise to say nothing tothe old woman. A respectable merchant on the West Side who is wholly unused to public speaking, went to show a mach-estcemed customer from lowa the public schools of thecity, the customer being at home a School-Trustee and desiring to introduce all the modern metropolitan improve- meunts into the town schools whea he got home. They visited a prominent school on the West Side, where the priocipal escorted them into the presence of the class of biggest girls, and one of the prettiest teacherson record. All this went to the merchant’s bead, aud when the principal asked bim to test the’ anthmetical ca- vacity of the scholars and lev the mentleman from Jowa see what the Garden City girls could do, he reddened to the roots of his hair. gasped incoherently, wml then propounded to the class the foliowing problem: “John sold two apples for $250 each, aud bouzht tour yards of calico at $1 a yard, and gave $2to a bhud man, and bought” 130 acres of sround at 50 cents an acre, and divided the remainder cvenly among his brothers, giving cach $2; how many brothers had John?"” The peacils scraped industriously upon the slate for & few seconds, and then one young lady beld up her bright, intelligent face and replied, **Jobn had 214 brotbers and a halL” A sud aud singular occurrence is reported from Aurcra. A youns man, strikingly beauti- ful and highly dccomplished, with apparently ample wealth, and betraying cxquisitely bigh- bred and polished manners, made nis debut in the society of .that pleasant city a few weeks a0, Where he soon became a general favorite. He =ave out that he was in search of a wife, and iu possession of a large income, but though he was introduced 10 several of the finest daugh- ters of the place none seemea to charm bim, and he turned from them fo coldiy, somctimes as so0n almost as the ceremouy of introduction had been zone through, that many peoyle came to regard bim as 4 maniac, 3 bigamist, and 8 bank- robber. At last one beautiful girl, Miss Helena ¥, C—— (whose name s suppressed_out of re- spect for the other young men she hopes to be engaged to), atiracted him,- and he paid her such- marked attentions that she felt justifica in _studyioe up the mar: Triage scrvice to sce what telling _ points <he could introduce 1n the lines assigned to ber. “All went merry as a carriage-bell, and presently —one afternoon last week it was—he sourht her mansion and _proposed for ber band in due form. He told her that be wore oneof the most honored pames in America; that be was endowed with ample wealth; and that in her be bad, be thought, found ong of the most verfect women_that—in fine, would she be his wifel She said that this was #0 sudden, that—but she would, 2nd he remarked, ‘O rapture!” and gave her a squeezs that would have madea cotton-press turn green with envy. ¢ Helena,” he said, when they bad in a mcasure recovered their breath, *I must tell you that my life bas Jong been that of-a cynic, in 5o far as yomen are concerned. 1had seen so manv of the rairest, best, and noblestof their sex deliterately sioking their womanhood, dishonoring their names, and rendering _ themselves contemptible in- the siznt of all men of true mnobility of soul, that. mny heart had grown callous, and I feared that (| nowhere on earth wouid I find a womau such as | Heaven intended her to be. The moment that I saw some of your iriends and heard their pames propounced I knew that I never conld Jove and respect them, but at last I found you, my darling, and_you, T knaw, are too good, t00 noble, too true to yoursclf, Helens, to—"" and he gave her anotlier enraptured ‘squeeze, ‘I hope so, Willyium.” she replicd, wondering Wwhat he meant, *but now that we are engaged and svon to be m-married, I waut you topromige me ope thing.” * I will, my ownest own of all the owns,” he replied with fervor; * what is it I want you always to call me Lenie!” Dropping her from bis knee as if she had been a red-hot stove, the miserable man gasped once or twice, yelled *She spelis her name with an i-6 too!" seized the first hat he encountered on the rack, and fled like a_mapiae to_his hotel, where he packed up his trunks and departed on the . m. train, having taken a ticket for Australia, A BURR IN THE HEART. Alady residing pear Cleveland, O., died a short time ago from an unkoown disease which greatly puzzled the. attendiog physiciaus, the symptoms being similar to those experienced in rhemmatism of the heart. After ber long - suftering ended in desth, a post-mortem cxamiation revealed one of the most wonderful things known to the medical profession. A large ourdock burr was found securety imbedded in_the heart, against the posterior surface of the aorta, just at the point where it emerees from the body of the heart, combletely covered with cystic-like tissue which had firmly enveloped all the large blood- vessels leading to and from the heart, which organ was in a bigh statc of inflammation, the left ventricle being greatly enlarged. A feature which greatly puzzles the doctors fs_the fact that_the lurge norta about three inches from the heart is found to be worn as thin as tissue-paper for about.the space of an inch, only the outer covering of tne larze artery remaining. This is suvposed to have been produced by the close proximity of the burr i its passage towards the heart. The specimen was forwarded to the Museum of the Beonett Medical College, of this city, aud has been in- spected by a large number of leading physiciaus, who uaite in pronouncine it oue of the most e: traordinary cases on record. Yesterday a RiB- UNE reporter happened in at the office of Dr. W. H. Davis, corner State and Madisou streets, while several physicians were cxamining this medical wonder. Prof. Davis aud others are of the opinion that the” burr must have been breathed into the lungs while the woman was a: child, as she has been a great sufferer fora namber of years, during which _time the burr was migrating from the bronchial tubes through the tissues to its final lodging-place.

Callaghan, was in the Criminal Court again yesterday, and by earnest pleading succeeded in havioz 2 nolle prosequi eotered in what is knowa as the Farnum indictment, upon which he was tried_ a few days ago and the jury could pot axree. In what is known as the Wells fn- aictment it was agreed to waive a jury and o to trial before the Court Tuesday. Callaghan was remanded. The Grand Jury yesterday took auother turn at the Blaikie vault robbery case, but did not get through. The officer who arrested Blaikie ‘was examined as to the circumstiuces surround- ing the arrest, and as to Blaikic's confession, but the final disposition of the case was reserved for further light. The latest advices were that Blaikic had uot been aporehended, but it is ‘believed that be is within calliuvg distance and will turn up the moment the jury fails to in- Gict bim. Commissioner Burlioe will introduce a resolu- tion in the Board to-morrow-in reference to the proposition to separate the pauper children from the adults at the Poor-House, providing for the appointment of a committee of two to visit New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut to look after the manner in which children are cared for, educated, and made self-supporting there, With a view to ntroducing here the ideas gained. He will ask an appropriation of $250 to pay the expenses of the Committee, Joseph Hogan is no longer County Plumber, and that office may be said to be vecant. Some weeks azo the Board authorized the Committee on Jail and Jail Accounts to do as it saw fit in the matter of cmpioying a plumber for the County Building, but without any action on the part of the Committee. Mr. Boese ud- dressed Mr. Hogan some days ago in the name of the Committec, dismissing him. The Com- mittee knew nothing of it until yesterday, and they did not take his action in the matter very kindly, but finally agreed to sustain him. The position of plumber is to be filled temporarily by some person at $2 a day,—possibly the wmys- terious individual who moved in a few dn{s ago with & bag of tools. But Mr. Hozan will not tamely submit to being so unceremoniously bounced, and will so inform the Board Monday by reminding them of-the fact that he is under contract with the county untit May 1to do the work for $10 per month. THE CUSTOM-HOUSE. The Sub-Treasury disbursements yesterday were $100,000 in currency, the silver exchange [ $1,000, and the 4 por cent subscriptions 32,900, Collector Harvey’s receipts yesterday- footed up $23,584, of which amount $20,285 was for taxes on distilled spirits, $2,348 for tobaceo and cigars, and $906 for beer. - ANDREW COCHRAN. Uncle Sam has at last gotten hold of a man whom he has been secking, throuch bis ordinary aceredited representatives, sioce the mouth of October, 1575. This person is nonc other than Andrew Cocbran, who, with his brother, David Cocbran, Rue P. Hutchins, Eli D. Bannister, and Thomas L. Wiswall, were waoted in these regions at that time to answer 1o a charge of defrauding the United States of the revenue on ceriain distilled spirits. On the Sth of October, 1675, David Cochran, Hutchins, and Bannister had 2 preliminary examivation beforc Connnissiorer Hoyne, and” were held in zood round bail to await the actiou of the Grand Jury which sat the next montb. Andrew Cochrun and the youns man Wiswall failed to appear, but the Grand Jury remembered them, though their forms were absent. in the indictments which it returned during the session. With the history of the case, commonly known as the Cochran Distillery case, the trjals and subsequent . im- prisonment of such of “the convicted as were in the district, the public is already familiar. A couple_of montbs azo onc of ile absentees, young Wiswall, turned up. He catae here from Cincinnatl, was arrested Ly a Deputv Marshal, was released on the strencth of o letter from the District Attorney at Cincinnati stating that he had squared himself with the Governmmen and was opeof its witnesses in ce:tain ci cases there, and the indictment against him was subsequently nolle prossed. But the onc Cochran to whom justice Ladn’t been meted out, or who hadn’t squealea on somebodv and thus saved himsclf; was still missing. As much as a year and a half ago a certain Deputy Mar- shal got wind of the fact that the much wanted thouzh comparatively unimportant, man was rusticating in Kansas, and a trip to that region was the npext thing in order. On arriving there the Deputy learned that Audrew had pulled up staiies and gone on further west,—no one knew where. After vainly endeavoring to lay hold on him, the Deputy re- turned to Chicazo, und no trace of the fugitive was obtained until about 3 month ago, waen the wformation came that he could be found in the purlieus of Tippecanoe, Obio. 'The indictment, together with a warrant for Cochran’s arrest, was sent to United States Marshal Ullery, of Cincinoati, and yesterday morping Marshal Rildrup got word Irom Ullery that Cochiran had been arrested, and that they would leave for Culeago by the first irain. Arrasgements were accordingly made to receive the visitors on their arrival. ‘Ihat is to say, the sarshal’s oftice and Commissioner Hoyne's of- fiee were kept open Quring the cariy evcoing, aud the officiais lay on their arms awaiting the progress of events. Their waiting, hov 'ver,was in vain, and they finally gave him up for the night. ' He will probably reach the city to-day, and, as he was- arrested on 8 bench warrant, spend Sunday at least over the river. CRIMINAL. Charles Ford was arrested last evening on complaint of a Miss Osterman, to whom he sold bozus opera tickets. He claims to be a private detective. Swindling was the charge preferred against him. John (?‘Cunuors; and James Callabag, well- known pickpuckets, were caught at the corner of Washington and Dearborn streets yesterday afternoou, watching for opportudities to rub persons, and were run intd Ceotral Station by Detectives Ryanand Londergan. = Benry Burke, one of the_ potorious family of that name who have fizured in the shooting of Officer Patrick Costello, was placed in the Christian Brothers” Home the other day to keep him out of mischief. He is but 12 years of age, but is well schooled in crime. i Nick Feean, a saloon-Keeper at the corner of Cramer and Balsted sv.ructsp, was arrested last picht on_complaint of Michael aud Alexander McNeeny, who charged himn with an assault with iotent to do bodily injury. The complainants were struck oo the heed witha clubor some other weapon, a3d somewhat hurt. Georze Havillis expected here to-day from Cleveland, and .on his arrival will be puty in jail to await trial oz such charzes of robbery as the detectives may have against him. It will be re- membered that he was concerned with Sheeney George, Oscar Barns, and Charley " Walsh, charged | Griffiths in several jobs, amoug them the su:nib ing of $2,000 worth of dismonds from Josie Putpam, the robbing of Muller's clothing store on Archer avenue, aud of Clayburzh, Etostein & Co.’s wholesale clothing house, and also & meat market on the coruer of Halsted and Twenty-second streets. ¥ Seventeen persons were taken out of I}'o. 91 South Clark street last night by Capt. O'Don- noll, Licut. Hayes, aud cight policemen, having been caught n the act of playing poker and faro. The “tools” were confiscated, and the prisoners were locked up in the Armory fora g){%lc, and subsequently relezsed on furnishing ail. . Fraok Ray, a barber who had recently beea in the cmploy of J. B. Schroeder, No. 224¢ West Rundolph street, wus arrested last evening by Detectives Haley und Hoffman for stealioe 3 Yaluable overcoat and undercoat, several razors, and £7 in money. When takenin custody some of thestolen stnff_was found on him. He was locked up in tle Madison Street Station. Before Justice Morrison vesterday the follow- iner cases were disposed of: Heory MeNevin, charged with passing a forged check on Dr. Joseph Rogers, a dentist; case continued to await the arrest of auother person, ~ James with deadly assoult upon his® sister-in-law Annie Nolan, held for_trial in the Upper Court. Johm B. Hetgu, alias Roe, will be cxamined for alleged oigamy on the 28th inst. Eugene Dougherty is probably onc of the worst crooks in Chicago., He was run in afew days ago on suspicion of having a hand fn the Goldsinid dinmond robbery; along with Joe Slater, but was discharzed, und last night, about 10:30 o'clock, Detectives Shea und Keat- ing found him szain in a saloon at the cormer of Halsted and Harrison streets, and arrested him. He is wanted for some job which. the Central Station officers have against bim. An Ttalian, said to e a padrone, named Carl De Succe, was arrested last eveningon a vagran- cy-warrant, and at_the Madison Street Station gave the name_of Charles Jones. He fs said to be engaged in the business of bringinz bovs over from Italy and employing them as street musictans, taking the proeceds of their begeines, and balf-starviog and ill-treating them. A small boy is now at the Madison Street Station wko tells astory of hardship aud suffer- ing that, if true, should consirn De Succe to some place where he will do some goud. THE MICROPHONE. THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANT, 125 LaSaile street, have received what is called i battery transmitter”—the invention of Prof. Bell, which wili enable one to hear a whisper over the wire. A voltaic current is passed through conductors which are connected with the diaphrazm. These conductors offer a cer- tain resistance to the current, snd are so ar- ranged that the vibrations of the diaphrazm caused by the sound waves vary this resistance with every wave, thus producing undulations in the current which correspond to and reproduce the articalation. A maeneto-telephone, how- ever, is reauired as receiver. This transmitter acts more powerfully, for the reason thut voltaic electricity is a force much stronger than tie megneto-electric current ordinarily produced by the telephone, and on that account the faintest articulation can be transmitted with the utmost distinctness. The batters telephone, though possessing the advantaze of londer articulation, and not being liable to get out of order under ordinary circumstances, is more delicate and complicated in its constructinn, requires the maintenance of 2 battery in copnection with it, and, occasionally, the attention of an eiectrical expert. 1t will doubtless be used principally in the larger cities where the induced cur- rents from telegraphand other wires interfere materially with the weaker currents of the magneto-telephone, also in the transinission ol measuges’ over loug distances, or where, for special reasons, greater volume of sound is necessarv, It has been used successiully be- tiween Milwaukee and Chicago, and experiments will be made in a day or two with a moredistant point. With this transmitter, onc need not put one’s mouth close to the dlnpi].—ngm. ‘The speaker can stand off four feet und talk in an ordinary tone, or turn his back to the instrument. Both the sender and the receiver were in the latter po- sition yesterday, und vet each coutd understand the other perfectly. Oniy two are now in use in this city, but when their working is understood there will doubtless be a zreat demand for them. LOCAL MISCELLANY. Bhrewd young men who have been visiting out of town during the past two weeks are now re- turning, and are suspiciously earnest in their regrets at missing the opera. ‘There’s one thing that the eye of mortal has never beheld, aud that is the skater who rell down because he could mot stand up. Heal- ways looks around with an air of importance, then fixes his skate straps, anddoes not rub the place that hurts the most until he is sure 2o one is looking. One of the most noticeable business changes of the season il be the removal Feb. 1 of the Canadian Baok of Commerce from the present location on Washington street to the more com- modious quarters at the corner of LaBalle and Madison strects, formerly occupied by the Mer- chants’ National Baok. “The Capadian Bank of Commerce commenced business in Chicago in 1575, and_ has ,steadily grown in public favor until the increasing patronaze makes the chanze of location — desiruble. Of the high standing and unquestioned stability of the parent institution and the Chi- cago branch, nothing need be said, as the facts are known and appreciated by our business men. An crroncous optnion has prevailed in some quarters that the operatiens of this bank are confined tothe Board of Trade business, but, althoush not generally understood by the pub- lic, the fact is that a general banking business is carried on, similar inall respects to the National banks, aud no better or more reliabie institu- tion is to be found in the countrs. . “Tony Pastor has a soug called, * Where Was Moses When the Light Went Out?” " If Moses wus the mau the wilderness people took him to be, you -can bet_ e was down to the gas com- pauy’s office in about five wmivutes explaining the lawand askivg for a rebate oo his bill 'ju short meter i Mr. George S.
