ITS BAPTISM OF FIRE.
One of (lie Buildings la Course ol Cod
slructlon in Lincoln Park Entirely
Destroyed by Fire.
Lincoln Height Is th namo of one
I sevejul rnrint additions to the city's
lww bulldlnK plots. It Ip not actually
n portion of the city as yet, hut touches
the Sixth ward tioundnry line find Is
adicent to the Hound Woods, Last
evenlnjr about 9.30 the Heights had Its
Initial lire. There are seven new single
flnnllWiKs In course of election upon
different portions of the plot and one
of these, abutting on Watson avenue,
either took Arc or was set on fire. The
destruction was complete, there being
no the hydrants within 4,000 feet of the
residence.
The Heights with Its stone sidewalks
is an Attraction for promenaders of an
eventng and thf flames were discov
ered bv some young men who were
passing. One of them apprised Mr.
Reynolds, the land agent, who resides
on South Main avenue, a few blocks
distant, and he telephoned to the city
Arc department. The Dodgo shnft
whistle was blown and later an alarm
was sent In from Box 324. The Eagles
and Franklin companies went to the
scene, but Chief Hlckey recognized the
futility of any attempt to reach the fire
with a lino of hose and sent them back.
The house was a two-story frame
structure and was almost ready for oc
cupation. It was being built for G. P.
Reynolds, bookkeeper for the Lacka
wanna Iron and Steel company, by his
brother, Clarence Reynolds, a Dunmore
contractor. The land agent, Mr. Rey
nolds, was seen and stated that he had
no idea as to tho origin of the lire. It
having commenced In the rear cellar,
might have been caused by spontane
ous combustion: the trying of a new
furnace, or carelessness of some carpen
ter In leavlnc flri around.
Two or three boys who were passing
the building some ten minutes before
the discovery of fire stated that they
had seen, two fellows come out of the
building and go across the fields Into
the Round Woods. The other build
ings were distant enough to escape
damage.

MIDSUMMER
SHIRT WAISTS AT
CLOSE OF SEASONS PRICES
There is no story whatever attached to these
waists. Every garment is of this season's design and
make, and the five lots into which they are divided
includes the balance of our entire season's line, there
fore, although prices are unusually low, the quality
and finish is the very highest we could procure.
These are points well worth your consideration,
for as you probably know, at this season the market
is filled with seconds and jobberish stuff on which
the price is low enough in all conscience, but it lacks
the careful finish and fine choice of patterns that is
found in regular goods, and consequently cannot be
figured on as belonging to the same class in any way.

OUJl LEGATION IN MADRID.
Wen Who Hnvo Represented Wash
ington in Spain's Capital.
The post of minister to Madrid has
been one of the moat Important in the
diplomatic service of the United States,
says the Sun, and Stewart L. Wood
ford is the thirty-third representative
of the United States to be accredited
oltlolally to the Madrid government.
Tho first American minister to Spain
was the Virginian, William Short, and
at the time of his appointment In 1790,
by Washington, then president, he was
looked upon as a representative of tho
old school of Virginians, who, at that
time, seemed to have greater qualifica
tions for the diplomatic service than
other Americans. Jefferson's minister
to Spain was Charles Plnckney, of
South Carolina, and at the conclusion
of his term of service official relations
between Spain and the United States
were broken off for the six years from
180S to 1814. When they were resumed,
John Forsyth, of Georgia, became
American minister to Spain, and dur
ing his tenure, by the treaty of 1819,
Spain formally ceded to the United
States after long controversy the ter
rtlory of the present state of Florida,
those parts of Alabama and Mississippi
south of the thirty-first parallel and
that portion of the present state of
Louisiana cast of the Mississippi, ex
cept what was then called the Island
of New Orleans. The ground of dis
pute between Spain and the United
States being removed, there was easy
Balling for the American ministers, and
the place came to be known as a post
for novelists and antiquarians. Wash
ington Irving was appointed to It in
1842 by President Tyler. Pierre Soule,
of Louisiana, held it under Pierce,
Buchanan appointed Geri, Preston, of
Kentucky, and President Lincoln ap
pointed Carl Schurz, then a resident of
Wisconsin. Schurz gave place to Gus
tavus Koerner, afterward lieutenant
governor of Illinois, and he In turn 'to
John P. Hale, of New Hampshlre.whose
services as the Free Soil pioneer are
remembered by all Republicans. Halo
was succeeded by Gen. Daniel E. Sickles,
who was succeeded by Caleb Cushlng.
Under Hayes James Russell Lowell
was minister to Spain. President Ar
thur appointed Hannibal Hamlin and
on his retirement John W. Foster, en
voy extraordinary for the United States
In foreign lande, particularly In Asia,
became the American minister In Mad
rid. Cleveland appointed Perry Bel
mont to the post and Harrison had
three ministers to Spain Thomas W.
Palmer, of Michigan; E. Byrd Grubb,
and A. Loudon Snowden, of Pennsylva
nia. Gen. Woodford Is no stranger to the
course of American politics, and in the
strained relations between the Span
ish monarchy and the American repub
lic, arising from Cuban difficulties, he
will be better qualified to represent
American Interests than would a min
ister of literary tastes and achieve
ments, visiting the city on the' Tagus
for an outing.

A VALUABLE RAT'S NEST.
It Wns Made of Greenbacks Worth
About Ono Thousand Dollnrs.
New York Commercial Advertiser.
While workmen were engaged last
week in demolishing a barn on the
Thompson property In Dobb's Ferry, N.
Y.,they found under the floor a rat's nest
which was made of greenbacks. The
money had been badly torn and chewed,
but most of It, if not all Is redeemable.
Professor Thomas F. Thompson, who
now owns the property, says the money
was probably hidden under the barn
floor some years ago by his father,
Robert Thompson, who began to act
queerly In 1889, and became possessed
of a fear of banks, lawyers and corpor
now owns the property, says the money
about him. He seldom, if ever, allowed
anyone but himself to visit the barn.
Mr. Thompson, sr., died September 18,
1893, and Professor Thompson's mother
lived until December last.
By her will the estate, which consist
ed of $3,000 and the house and land, was
to be divided equally between Professor
Thompson and his brother. The profes
sor took the house and his brother the
money. In equity the money found in
the rats' nest belongs to Professor
Thompson, The professor Is a blind
musician and has composed a number
of pieces.
The total amount of money in the
rats' nest is thought to be about $1,000.
It Is $5, $10 and $20 bills.
