The republicans of Laurel district held an enthusiastic mecting in Flester’s Hall Saturday evening. The meeting was called to order by Btate Senator Charles E. Coffin of Muirkiri, who introduced Thomas Parrati of Calvert county, the standard bearer of the republican Party for congressional honors in Prince George's county during the coming fall election. Mr. Parran’s address was chiefly confined to the discussion of the tariff question, and he pointed out from a re- publican standpoint the benefits of protection and the evile of free trade.

STREET LINES AND SURVEYS. With the increased value of real estate and town lots here has come the revision of lines | aud with it all the difficulties that grow from new surveys, where the basis of old lines has been lost. It was found early in the history of the town that some of the squares were too long and others too short of the standard of 850 feet on the north and south squares and 2-4.100n the east and west squares. It may ve stated that it is now impossible to get an original case for any survey of any of the old squares of the city, and the attempt of enecees- ive city surveyors to give party lines different from those which have existed or been acted upon for three-quarters of a century or more always resulted in a muddle. COUNTY AND CORPORATION COURTS. The Alexandria county court, Judge Chi- chester, is now in session at the Columbus street court house. Mr. 8. J. Reese has been appointed and qualified as guardian of the minor children | of WN. G ‘A. W. Armstrong is appointed committee in charge of the estate of K. M. Hatch, lunatic. The will of Mra. Mary C.

In this singular ease the property had been since 1815 deeded in several transac- tions under bonds which converted not the | actual property but the adjoining lot instead. | This the court corrected by deed.

One of the largest and most destructive fires ever known in that section has been burning in a valuable timber district near the line of the Richland and Tuckahoe railroad, ten miles west of May's Landing. N. J., for three days past. It is estimated that the fire has burned over a tract of land nearly ter. miles long and several miles wide, and thousands of acres of valuable timber have been destroyed, or so badly burned and charred as to be worthless. It is not known how the fire was started, but it is believed to have been caused by settlers who were clearing land at one of the new set- tlements in the vicinity. A strong wind which has been blowing for several days kept the fire burning hard nightand day. The timber is as ary as tinder, owing to the continued drought, there having been no rain of any amount for weeks. Attempts to fight the fire are useless, asthe heavy wind carries the sparks several hundred yards, ——-—+e+ A STRANGE STORY. Young Wright of Louisiana is Alive, Though He Was Supposed to Be Buried.
