f'§ Ho*r a Family Was Annoyed by ah 1n
,4 BAHK HsxATtVK.—About one month ago, a
£“' very neatly-dressed and pleasant-spoken lady,
* , 'entered Aiderman Whitens office and asked
jA ‘, - for the constable. She Bald that she ’desired
' to have served upon one of her tenants a legal
' three months notice to retire from a house on
LV* West Chestnut street. , The building Is a splen-
Lfc did structure and cost- a large amount pf
- money. , The lady said it was built byjher
iai , husband, whohad died several monthssince,
andas the “ tenants didnot,or could not, or
fflggJT would not pay the rent, the onlyreSouroe was
dispossess them. • •
pThat is the proper way. Madam, re
,i 4 -‘sponded the mamstrate, as he commenced
* '’fflSng; up the notices,two in number.
| ■ The lady paid the usual fee, and _after a few
• remarks upon thd'lneoessity of emorcing the
law, departed/ , - ,
The constable, proceeding to the house in
t './ queBtion,found it to correspond in appearance
• With that given by the lady at the office. He
,r\« rang tho bell, and a servant answering the
Sv> 'Summons, showed him,to the reception parlor,
/S 'wUefe lio awaited the, arrival of the tenant.
/ »> The house was furnished in splendid and costly
1 style. Oil paintings and fine engravings, valu
w ; aWe works of art, embellished the walls. The
®r,' i floor was covered with velvet carpeting and
S„-\ \ furniture to match. The constable began to
rst that, ho certainly was in the-wrong
• We,and therefore he would have to ap
f, “ foacu the subject of his Visit in as polite and
| fW * '-initiate a style as possible.
m i ( Y@. l A»#S 6n tly a lady entered the parlor. The
r'r arose and asked if lie nad the plea
gi i 5 «]uif seeing Mrs. .
J int indy replied, in a pleasant voice,that he
?. V 'l'W'Uen handed her the notice, whidh she
«. *-ia®jft*nd ,theh read over and over again.
I,!, not what to say—she lookod at the
iy/cotiStable, as though, deeply in meditation,
V 1 tlijenvagaiu at the notice,and he perceiving her
¥ : was about to take his depar
iV ( yUtig that he merely wished to serve
{!'■ . tSSpuper,>and that no explanation was neces
bowed himself out as politely as a
able -knew how.
f next day the lady who claimed*the
l ajiiraSe as her property called at the Alderman’s
f Worn eo,-to learn whether the notice had been
sKrvcd.
| AffiSie seemed to be gratified on receiving an
‘ w t answer, and then departed.
\ ® r ll '‘l Twlnoments a gentleman entered the
fit, -?¥ r ?y*. 1 r'p'roducingthe “ quit notice,” handed

’ ad iiftCrtfwhich culminated a few days since

„nis maiming ownership of the house ap
* the Alderman’s office. Mr. Mead,
■ f‘V • Wionstable, said that he desired to give her
V / the house; that the tenants had

... t trnK Nkw Public Buildings. —A special
1 meeting of the Public Building Commission
■>' W as held this morning in their rooms in the
new court-house, Wm. S. Stokley, Esq., Pre
sident, in the chair. The object of the meet
ing was the consideration of a communication
from the City Controller, asking for estimates
of appropriations required, the amount of
revenue expected, &c., for the year 1869.
Mr. Spering moved that the City Controller
he notified that the Building Commission will
require $300,000 next year.
The following was read as a proposed reply
* to the note of the City Controller:
“In compliance with your note of request
dated October 15th, 1869,1 would state that
the amount required to carry on the business
of the Commission! for the year 1870 will be
as follows, to-wit: , , .
“Item 1. The first annual instalment
toward the erection of public buildings, $300,-
000, ns per ordinance approved Dec. 31,1868.
« I would further state that we have no
source from which any revenue may be de
rived. •
“ There will be no deficiency m the appro
priation for the year .1869.” . -
The ordinance providing for the levying of a
special tax of 1-10 of one per cent.,or such other
tax,which will yield at least s3oo,ooo,was then
TCftd*
Mr. Robbins desired to know what 1-10 of
one per cent, will yield.
Mr. Spering replied that it would raise about
$460,000.
Mr. Robbins then moved to amend the mo
tion of Mr. Spering by inserting the full
amount of the tax (about $460,000).
Mr. Walter said that not more than $300,000
will be expended next year. Less money will
then be required than in any future year. The
work which will then be executed will not be
costly. The contracts will cover a great deal
of work at little expense. The second year
the Commission will need all the money it can
"Ct.
15 After some discussion the amendment of
Mr. Robbins was agreed to, and the resolu
tion was adopted.
Mr. Walter said that the Committee on
Plans and Architecture thought that they,
would like to have a model of the proposed
buildings, and have agreed to employ a person
to make a model at an expense not to exceed
$750. They had found a person who had
agreed to make a model for $5OO. The
committee think, however, that they
have not the right to make such an
engagement without authority of the Commis
sion. The plans are being drawn as rapidly as
possible. Modelsw.ill convey a better idea
than drawings, and the Committee think it
unwise to spare anything in order to Show the
people what the’ buildings are to be. Mr.
Walter then offered a resolution authorizing
' the Committee on Plans and Architecture to
obtain a model of the proposed buildings,pro
vided the expense does not exceed $750.
Mr. Billington thought that a model should
not lie made until the plans are completed.
Mr. Bobbins remarked that the Committee
considered a model essential i u order that the
t , i Commission will be enabled to vote intelli
gently on the subject. • -
'■;W 'Mr! Gillingham thought that uo more could
,f #*•. {be understood from a model than can from
3 iplans on paper or written descriptions of the
u .‘Mtuilding. ~ • ■
1, - t Mr. Walter said that the plans will be com-
M '/tpleted bv the middle of December. After the
. if> stiiians are approved by the Commission a
-yyill be of no use: The first and second
5 \.sto”ies are completed, and when, tlie plans are
**' the model will.be done. The object of
“ the model is to let the Commission know be
' .f&’eliand exactly what the buildings are to
: 1 , M-irlrf Stokley remarked that a modelwould
Juibctter understood by members of Councils
• i l 'ii hah plans would.
.'A After discussion the resolution ot Mr.
• W jWajlter was adopted. Adjourned.

Firf, in the Fifteenth Ward— This
morning, about half-past eight o’clock, a lire
broke out in the planing-miß of Campbell &
Atkinson, on Twenty-tourth street, above
Green. The building was of brick, two stories
in height. The flames origmated-in the base
ment, near the boiler, and spread rapidly
through the combustible material in the build
ing, and the structure was entirely destroyed.
The loss of the occupants is estimated at
$3,1)00 on machinery. The stock is not insured,
hut the machinery is insured for $1,250 in the
Mechanics’ insurance Company, and sl,2oo>n
the Fanners’ Mutual, of York, Pa.
Immediately in tho rear of the mill and con
nected with it by a gangway is a three-storied
brick structure, occupied by Olhs i; liro.,
turners. This building was damageu to the
extent of about $2,000, and the loss on the
stock is estimated at $2,000. The building is
insured for $5,000 in the Fire Association, and
Ollis & Bro. have an insurance ot $2,000 m
the Royal, on their stock.
Both buildings are owned by Christopher
Stiver. Tho front building was rented by
George , Cook, who relet it to Campbell &
Atkinson. This building was valued atss,ooo,
and Mr. Cook had it insured for $1,500.
The Fasbionaivlf, Thhon«.—The weather
being ratber pleasant on Saturday, thousands
oflaaies, old anti young, thronged the retail
business thoroughfares of our.city to glance
at, examine, and, perchance, the
latest styles of fall and winter goods. The
competition among the storekeepers is waged
with untiring energy. With tasteful, and, in
some cases, gorgeous displays, and a proper
arrangement in regard to a judioious use\ot
printers’ ink, the excitement among those
who never fail to “go shopping” on clear
days is continuous, if not really of a chronic
character. In fact, - sometimes the side
walks become impassable, because of
the crowds of' shoppers, and gentlemen
whose business is urgent are* compelled to go
beyond the curbstone for passage wav, or have
recourse to less frequented streets. Here and
there may be seen detectives, watching and
mingling busy throng, hut store
keepersssgeneßftlty have their own watchers
for self-prhtmion against the “lifters” who,
Whenever an opportunity offers, lay violent
hands upon any article easily carried away.
• Tflo probability is there never was such a
heavy stock of goods on hand as at tho pre
sent time, and in the higher grades the prices
in some instances show a decline of more
than a hundred per cent.
Incendiarism. —Last night, about' eleven
o’clock, an attempt was made to burn a row
of handsome new dwelling houses, now; in
course of erection on Sansom street, above
Thirty-fourth. Policemen Green and Howe
were passing up Chestnut street, and observed
a light in one of the .houses. Upon making
an examination it was found that a lot of
shavings had been gathered together in the
sitting-room, and piled up against a
door. A hole had already been burned
through the floor and the door was in full
blaze. Officer Green tore the door from its
hinges and threw it into the street, while
Oflicer Bowe extinguished the fire among tho
shavings. As tho policemenwere leaving the
premises they discovered the next housu was
on iiro. The fire had been built in the same
manner, and was also extinguished by the
policemen. A man “was seen running from
the houses, and is supposed to have been the
incendiary. .
