An alarm was at ouce made by young Mr. Grimes and others who had by this time seen the blaze, and nearly the entire male population of Langdon who happened to be at home In an almost incredibly short space of time the femes spread beyond control and ignited the out- houses on the premises belonging to Mr. Baker, which, with the stable, were totally destroyed The heat from the fire was so intense that 1t was feared several thues that Mr. Baker's house would also be burned, but fortunately the wind was not blowing much at the time the fire was in progress. And this and the work done by those above re- ferred to in removing every object possible which would feed the flames prevented greater damage. The origin of the fire is unknown. Mrs. A. H.

A FATHER’S AFFECTION. It Was Not Counted on and It Broke Up a Swindiimg Scheme. Horace Hall, a white half-breed old man over sixty years oldj:and Wm. Rusk, about twenty-five years his:junior, are in jail at Santa Rosa, Cal., charged with a peculiar offense. Rusk’s father is a: wealthy citizen of At- water, Ill. The young man left home about ten years ago. The scheme was for young Rusk to die, figuratively speaking, ani then, under the name of Brown, to become administrator of his estate. After this was all done Hall was to write to Rusk’s par- ents, telling them that Rusk was dead, and that Rusk had borrowed $4,000 from Hall, which Brown, the administrator, refused io pay until he heard from Rusk’s father. The letter was couched in sympathetic terms, but made it very plain that it was Rusk’s duty to send the money to Brown so he could pay the debt. of his alleged dead son. Had it not been for the Wlinois farmer’s desire to see the remains of his son, the game would probably have worked, but after telegraphing a number of times about the body to “Brown” and Hall, and getting no satisfaction, he became suspicious. Hall and Rusk bitterly upbraid each other for the failure of their plans. e+ CAREW Porson ‘G CASE. A Governenss Said to Have Confexsed Having Committed the Murder. Great interest has been taken at Yokohama, Japan, in the trial of Mrs. Carew, @ prominent society lady, on the charge of poisoning her husband with ar- senic In a manner similar to :hat said to have been followed by Mrs. Florence May- brick, now undergoing a sentence of im- prisonment for life in England. Mr. Carew was taken ill October 15 last and died October 22. The inquest certified that he died of arsenic poisoning, and a verdict of murder was rendered against some unknown person. At the preliminary inquiry, held in the British consular court the evidence showed that Mrs. Carew made large purchases of arsenic, the use of which she said was an old-time habit of her husband's. ‘Throughout the proceed- ing there were references to a mysterious velled woman, and there was consi-lerable excitement when it became known that Mary Jacob, the governess of the Carew family, had been arrested and is reported to have confessed to committing the mur- der for which Mrs. Carew was on trial since January 5. HIS RECALL DEMANDED. The German Ambassador to Japan Guilty of an Outrage. The greatest excitement prevails in diplo- matic and other circles at Tokio and Yoko- hama, Japan, owing to an alleged outrage committed by the German minister to Japan, Baron von Gotschmidt It’ appears that while the minister was out driving he lashed across the face a Japanese student who had in no way provoked him. The newspapers demandsthe recall of the baron, and the matter hasbeen taken up by the Japanese foreign office: —— A Book of Rehdy Reference. Very few Washingtonians can tell off- hand the area or popuigtion of their native city, how it ranks+as a manufacturing city, its imparts, ete.
