10 FIRES. Five Persons Burned to Death at Cohoes, N. Y. A FAMILY ALMOST ANNIHILATED. A Mother and Several Children Destroyed by Flames in Pennsylvania. Conos, N. Y., Dec. 19, 1978, At half-past ten o’clock last evening a fire was dis- covered in the tenement No. 42 Bowery street, Fifth ward. On the arrival of the firemen it was ascer- tained that Patrick Rourke, his sons Timothy, Martin, Owen and William, aged respectively sixteen, eleven, nine and five years, and two daughters, Mary ‘Ann, aged twenty-two, and Bridget, aged thirteen, | were in the burning building, ‘The two girls were rescued, the older so badly burned that she cannot survive, but the younger was comparatively uninjured. Mr. Rourke died soon after being taken from the building. ‘The boys were dead when found, ‘The house is in ruins. ‘A defective alarm caused a delay in the arrival of the fire department. STATEMENT OF AN EYE-WITNESS. The following statement of the affair is given by Stephen Monk, who resides in an adjoining builds ing:— I was awakened by my little daughter, who told me that the house was on fire. On rising I observed that the frame building occupied by Patrick Rourke and his children was on fire. I gave the to the front door. Knowing that the key had been lost I broke the door open, but could see nothing owing to the stifling smoke. [then went to the rear of the building and found the kitchen window open, which led me to belicve that the family had made good their escape. By this time several strangers had arrived, and two of them broke in the window of the bedroom in the front of the ‘house, where they found Patrick Rourke lying barrels. He was dragged toward the window in an insensible condition, and after gasping a few times expired. While the father was being removed two other men entered the house through the window and recovered the insensible body of Mary Ann, aged twenty-two years, the oldest child. The body of Owen, aged nine years, was next re- covered through a hole cut in the north side of the building. He was burned to a crisp, and it was some time before he was recognized. About two o'clock in the morning the charred re- mains of Timothy, aged sixteen years; Martin, aged eleven years, and Willie, aged five years, were recovered from the débris in the back kitchen. ‘They lay together and were burned into a shapeless mass. Bridget, aged thirteen years, is the only member of “the family who escaped, and she states that she was forced through the kitchen window by Mary Ann, her elder sister, who was removed from the front bedroom window in an unconscious state and femained in that condition up to Thursday noon when she expired. Bridget can give no account or information regard- ing the affair except that she was pushed through the window. The remains of the unfortunates were removed to the undertaking rooms of McMoran and Ryan on Mohawk street. The mother of the family died some four years ago, and one of Rourke’s sons is at present serving a term in the Albany Penitentiary. The building was owned by its occupant and was uninsured, There is no system of fire alarm here, and great delay was occasioned thereby. six alarm and ran whole between two A GIRT. PATALLY BURNED. [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERATD.] Fastox, Pa., Dec. 19, 1878. This afternoon Lizzie Thomas, a girl aged ten years, was amusing her younger sisters, when her clothes caught fire frm the stove. She was so badiy burned that her injuries will prove fatal. Her mother was absent from home at the time, and the child's clothes were nearly burned off before as- *eistance arrived. AN INFANT BURNED TO DEATH. (BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] WILKESBARRE, Pa., Bec. 19, 1878, A little girl named Minnie Cronin, aged three years, was the victim to-day of a species of carelessness that borders on criminality. During Mrs. Cronin’s absence from the house the child allowed to play in the fire with a pine stick. The child, seeing the pitch ignited, and delighted with the spectacle, held it in her hands until the coals dropped into her lap and sot fire to her clothing. In an instant the inflammable cotton garments were on fir: ild screamed for help, but before the mother could arrive life was extinct. was A MOTHER AND CHILD BURNED TO DEATH. ALLENTOWN, Pa., Dec, 19, 1878, At Treichlers, Pa., to-day, the clothing of a child of Mrs. Minich was accidentally set on fire, and in an ‘ attempt to extinguish the fames the mother and child ‘were burned to death.

Fire broke out in the Knickerbocker Mills, -No. 156 Chambers street, last evening, about nine o'clock. At that time William Smith, a messenger attached to the Chambers Street Hospital, noticed a column of smoke rising from the roof of the mills and informed an officer, who gave the alarm, The entire top floor of the building was soon in flames. The firemen ar- rived promptly, but seemed to have difficulty in getting a stream of water on the fire. A second alarm was sotnded, and upon the arrival of more engines a number of streams were put in play, but the flames spread notwithstanding, The ar of the flames and the crash of falling timbers rmed the patients in the Chambers Street Hospi- tal, and the glare of the light reflected on the oppo- site buildings increased their uneasiness. Several ot the firemen who entered the building with the hose were almost blinded by the quantities of mustard and pepper, which became mixed with the At about ten o'clock the tire was under control, and shortly after was entirely extinguished. The loss is estimated to be about $20,000. ‘The building is a six story brick factory, owned and occupied by Sherrill & Miller, and contained a large stock of mustard, popper, cloves, | cinnamon and coffee. In the rear of the lower floor there are a number of patent coffee roasting furnaces, but there was no ire in any of them, and it is be- lieved that the fire must have originated from in- stantaneous combustion of the spices stored in the building. The loss is fully covered by insurance. A FIREMAN INJURED. Louis 8. Hoagland, of No. 88 Vandam street, a fire- man attached to No. 7 Engine, fell off the hose tender | at Chambers and Centre street yesterday while going toafire. The wheel of the tender passed over his body and he sustained injuries about the hips and back. He was removed to Chambers Street Hospital. A BALLOT STUFFER INDICTED, THE PURITY OF ELECTIONS IN VIRGINIA TO BE ENFORCED BY A FEDERAL COURT. [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.) RicuMonp, Dee. 19, 1878. The United States Cireuit Court convened here to- day with a special Grand Jury, supposed to have been summoned in view of the election cases likely to be presented. This jury is one of the best ever summoned in this district, and includes R. H. Starke, a well known manufacturer, foreman; Franklin Stearns, a wealthy citizen and a Union man during the war; J. H. Chamberlaine, editor of The State, and other prominent citizens. There are three colored men, allof whom are representative men of their race, VOTES FROM A JUDGE'S SLEEVE. The Grand Jury found indictments against Wileox for robbing the mail, and against one Alexander Vaughan for trying to stuff a ballot box at Petersburg during the late election, Vaughan was a State judge of election, and it is charged that the ballots were emptied out of the box for counting before canvassing, as required by the State law, Vaughan threw into the pile some sixty-five ballots, which he had in his sleeves. lt is understood that a number of similar cases of election frauds will be brought before the Grand Jury—probably a dozen—and that the Court will have 2 chance to investigate this district, in which fraud had always been charged by the republicans. More indictments are expected to-morrow, and considera- bie uneasiness respecting them prevails, of Memphis, Luchrmann’s | RAILWAY FREIGHT RATES, | AN AGREEMENT TO POOL RECEIPTS AND TO MAINTAIN THE NOVEMBER TARIFF. CHICAGO, Dee. 19, 1878. The Railroad Convention to-day unanimously adopted the report agreed on last night by the joint committee. This report pro- vides that the Chicago roads leading Esst shall pool their business on the same plan as the roads ont of Cineinnatti, Indianapolis, Peoria and St. Louis; that the arrangement shall go into effect tmmediately ; that the rates shall be restored to the basis of the tariff of November 25—namely 35 cents per 100 Ibe, on grain and 40cents on fourth class freight fo New York; that all rates from all points be restored at once; that none of the roads here rep- resented shall hereafter be partics to any con- tract or agreement or allow rebates below the agreed toriff, and that all existing contracts shall be reported within a week to the chairman of the joint com- mittee. An apportionment of freight was made as follows :— ‘To Chicago roads and Michigan Central, 32 per cen: Lake Shore and Michigan Southern, Pittsburg and Fort Wayn Baltimore and Ohio, 10; Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis, 7. These figures aggregate two per cent too much, but none of the roads seemed willing to make the reduction, and the matter will be arbitrated, In the ‘meantime the pool ison this account practically inoperative for the present. Until further action lake and rail rates will be two cents less than all rail rates. ‘The greater portion of the day was spent in a fruit- less attempt to solicit erbitrators to apportion the business, This will probably be done to-morrow aud the Convention will be in fact, as it is now nominally, adjourned.

Dernort, Mich., Dec. 19, 1878, Aspecial despatch to the Free Press from Kaluma- 700 says a passenger train onthe Grand Rapids and Indiana Rujlroad this evening came in collision with a sleigh containing John McIndre, his wife and three children, at Hunt's Crossing, near Plainwell, Mich. McIndre was instantly killed and his wife and one child fatally injured. ~ OBITUARY, _ MINARD LEWIS, Mr. Minard Lew scenic painter of rare excel- lence, whose brush has been actively employed in the ornamentation of nearly every principal theatre in the country, has but recently died at Chicago of hemorrhage of the lungs. He had gone to the Gar. den City but a short while ago for the pur- pose of doing some stock scene painting for Hamblin’s Theatre, late the Colos- xeum, Jt has been put on a legitimate footing, and in appealing to the public for patron- age the management wisely thought of securing Mr. Lewis, whose facile touch age, for he was over sixty years old, had not weakened, and whose artistic efforts were but spesmodically interfered with by a life that had not been spent over judiciously, It | has been fully ten years «ince he did anything of renown. Lately he has been heard of here and there but it was always with the dark «ug th been Once king of the swinging paint bridge, he known to do magnificent work in obsenre back rooms, Hi was rapid and precise in his execntion. Many an order was given him for a scone an hour before the | curtain rose, and it was there in time, the wet colors glistening in the glare of the footlights. In appear. ance Mr. Lewis was of medium «ize, lithely built, | with delicate hands and fect, In his best days he was very dressy, and to the last he was an inveterate smoker of pipes. His collection of meerschaums would make a valuable museum for an enthusiast in that direction. He never smoked a cigar, Among men he wis suave and conrtly; at hishome he was @ kind husband aud affectionate father, He was twice married, being separated from his first wife, and leaves two children. He passed awi of hin sesond wife, Mr. Lewis was the son of a wealthy builder of this city, where he wax born, He was educated at a New reey seminary, and, after graduating, was articled 10 one of th inont lawyers who then orna- | mented th: His legal career, how- | ever, waa Like Darl other now great American artists, shietly spent in the executic paper.

Celeste bad to climb in the character of the French At the breaking out of the gold fever Minara Lewis was already a well known scenic artist on the Atlan- | tie Slope, So well known, indeed, that, though bis father, angry at his ronunciation of the career he had selected for him, had removed his support, the Son was still inthe most comfortable eireumstances. Tho rich promise of the new El Dorado lured him from his chosen career. He crossed the plains with » of the many expeditions whose relies, to this + mark out the old overland route with skelet« Afier a speculative the California mines wandered off to Mexico, to Central America and th remoter tropies, gathering t glorious country of the sun he was so fond of por- traying. The finest among his many hundreds of sketches—and he was a diligent student—date from this portion of his career. Among the first places at which he was employed after a meteoric reappearance in the East, was the Boston Museum, then under the management of Moses Kimball, otherwise well known as at onedime Mayor of Boston, For this house he painted a fa- mous drop curtain called “Past, Present and Future.’ Many years after, when Mr. Fechter, in the interest of the late Arthur Cheney, opencd the Globe Theatre, another and still more noteworthy drop was painted by Mr. Lewis at his studio in’ New York for that house. The studio in which this picture of the enfr'acte ws executed was the first scenic studio in America ever erected outside of a theatre. It had been con- structed at Mr. Lewis’ expense and under his super- intendence, in the rear of a building on Sixth street, between Second and Third avennes, which had for- merly been achurch. To-day it is a part of a stable. At the time of its erection the artist enjoyed the entire freedom of the Academy of Music, whose paint room was literally and whoily at his service at all times. Whenever any new scenery was to be added to the Academy stock Mr. Lewis was sent for. The first scenery before which Christine Nilsson acted and sang in this country was executed by him. He had, indeed, during his artistic life in New York, been 80 widely and yariously engaged that it is dificult to make any chronological arrangement of his work; but certain facts stand forth prominently. When Laura Keene opened the theatre which is now the Olympic he was her principal scenic artist. He furnished the elaborate sets for the “Seven Sisters” and for ail the other successes which crowned Miss Keene's managerial career. The notoriously magni- Edwin Adams’ first production it Booth’s, was the work of Mr. brush, as also the finest scene in Ka Bateman’s “ Warner” and Booth’s “Richelieu. Leaving Booth’s he returned to the Olympic, and in September, 1867, he employed himself on scencs for Jefferson's “Rip Van Winkie,” but chiefly in eking out a series of fine English scenic effects illustrative of the ‘Midsummer Night's Dream,” which Mr. Jefferson had bronght from London. Mr. Jefferson's engagement at this time was for eight weeks. The season during which the Olympic enjoyed Mr. Lewis’ services embraced the years 1467, 1868, 1869. He did a great proportion of the work for “Humpty Dumpty,” which ran such @ course under the late lamented_George L. Fox, aud the chief tableans for Maggie Mitchell's successful season. Mr. Hayes, the lessee of the theatre and one of our leading scene painters himself, never spoke of Mr. Lewis, except in the most glowing terms, both as an artist anda man. Dan Bryant's old Opera House was stocked with scenery by him. So also was the Union Square Theatre, then o simple variety hall. There are few theatres, indeed, in this city which do not exhibit specimens of his art. At the Olympic and the Globe his drop curtains ere still rung down be- tween every act. Among those who knew Minard Lewis well, and the only available one in New York city who had seen him ite recently, is Mr. John Hillyard, scenic painter at ‘allack’s Theatre, and the son of Lewis’ great con- temporancous rival. The HEnaLp rter found him busy at work. He had not heard of the death and seemed shocked, Afterward he entered into a general conversation about the deceased, and being asked to give some idea of Lewis’ style said:—"He was a dashing and effective painter, and yet a precise one. He gaye you the impression of carelessness that had the most mi- nute art underlying _ it. Rich and florid coloring he did not -affeet. The French school was more in his line—that school of masterly neutral tints. He was a great lover of grays. Inever saw a more rapid worker or one more in love with his art. So far as rapidity is concerned I never knew @ man to compare with Lewis save Matt Morgan. Mi- nard always smoked while working and was forever tune. In conversation he was a most de- lightful man, being thoroughly read on all subjects and stored with an inexhaustible fund of anecdote and repartee.” These tributes to the genius and character of Lewis were freely duplicated by all who were approached onthe subject. In an interview with a prominent manager this statement was 3 wis was one of the most conscientious workers in the busi- ness. When a new piece was underlined and scenery ordered he would not be content with drafted t would insist upon reading and pondering ch scene, so that inspiration should come ntact with the story. He would make sketches of his conception of the pictures and then build up the stage effects from them. During his long connection ag scenic artist with Laura hecne that admirable actress never dreamed of putting a play on the stage without first consulting Mr. Lewis, not only in regard to the scenery, with reference to.gtage effects, costumes and even to the minutin an acting scene.” me Those who saw Mr. Lewis in his later days, say during the last ten years, easily noticed that from domestic or other trouble he was working amid shadows. He grew careless and painted in an abeent minded way. old reliability and dash were gone. At one time the lowest salary he would take was $100 er week, but not more than two or three years Becx "he "was peinting for @ Newark house at the rate of $15 a week—a salary that in his palmy days he would scarcely have ‘offered the boy who mixed his colors. Extravagant living and the most lavish | cae d were other traits of the dead artist. He a Bohemianistic contempt for money that he never failed to express. If misfortune had not come upon him his life would probably not have been warped, and he might now have been doing his most brilliant work, instead of passing from the which has shrouded him into that deeper y re, last He went on the bridge and painted until noon. Then he complained of feeling unwell, and slowly walked from the theatre. He never csme back to finish the picture whose brilliant lines he had barely snggested, but left it to be filled in by a stranger hand, season. JOHN C, WEST. John C.

Irving Hall was “blazing with lights and breathing with perfume” last night. The floor was swept with silke and laces, jewels glistened here and there, and manly forms in the full regulation evening dress | glided through the formal quadrille or whirled about in the mazy waltz, The countenances of some of their owners were dark as Erebus, while others were of a lighter tint that showed the inter- mixture of another race's blood, and some of @ shade in which the warm tint of the Afric current could not be detected at all. Not @ white face in the room, except at the door, where Captain Clinchy, among a few Wlne-coated myrmidons, twirled his mus- tache and beamed upon the throng; yet there was an observance of the lightest point of ballroom etiquette. and a gentility in dress and be- havior that would have become a drawing room of upper tendom. The occasion was the first. grand rennion of St. John's Lodge, No. 19, F. and A. M., the members of which are all colored, and who, al- | thongh claiming no pretensions of wealth or fashion, evidently understood what were their proper attri- butes. The affair was opened by 4 little mony in which the officers participated. This was the presentation of three Masonic jewels to Thomas Mann, the Worshipful Master; | Theodore H. Fields, the Senior Warden, and James H. Levis, the Junior Warden, ‘The jewels were the gift of Mr. Walter L. Johnson, and in a yraceful lit- tle. addrees he stated | bis motives in do- nating them, approved of the gentlemen's ast rfforts in connection with the organization, complimented all the members on their success and prophesied great things in the future.
