and a frame building adjoining it were
totally destroyed.
The fire originated in the frame build

t
and the citiZens rep uded and worked`
fahlifully,bnt in cons quence et there Le
ing no nre apparatu of any description
whatever in Li3o ho ugh., their efforts
were of but little a -ail. There was a
strong wind blowing at the time, and the
flumes were carried p from the burning
;bidding to a heavy cornice projecting
'frona the Hiawatha use, to which they
communicated. In short time the ,eni

great tiers new*, an for d time it was
feared th the -entire .block, which in
cludes Shanna's bakery and saloon,
Darned & Co.'s attire, and Wm. Harri
son's shoe store, ould be destroyed.
The buildings in the rear of the Hia- -
watha House wertorn down,• and by
this precaution, together with Che pro
tection afforded by the snow to the roofs
of the buildings adjoining, the tire was
confined to ;the buildings named.
Shaum's bakery establishment Was on

material damage.' -
The ground floor of the Market street
front of the Hiawatha House was (livid
ed into two roomS, ono of which was oc
cupied by the late Dr. Hill, as a drag
store, andthe other by F. H. Coursin &
`Co., as 'a banking house. Some of the
goods in the drug store were removed,
but a considerable portion was destroy
ed. The books, papers and other valua
bles in Conrsin & Co.'s banking house
were in the sale, and will not, it is ex
peeted, be injured. The Hiawatha build
ing was owned and occupied by Win.
M.',Mullinf as a hotel. It was
. three
stories in height, and was the best hotel
in the , borough. The principal part of
1 the furniture was removed, although in
a damaged. condition. Mr. M'Mullin's
loss will not fall far short of twenty Live
thousand dollars. and he has no insur
ance whatever., ' 1
The building in which the fire origipa

True, there were many vacant chairs
which silently told of a lack of culture andl

house was so well filled, and by such an
intelligent audience as can seldom he

often called forth unqtfalified expres

The ballad; "Dreams of Home," full of ,
'sentimental:id feeling, was rendered In
a perfect style by the "quartette,"
Messrs. W. H. Slack, W. E. Slack; Hor
ner and Darling, and was perhaps the
gem of the enterta i nm ent . Prof. Dar
ling sang the beautiful solo; "Summer
Sweets," assisted by the quartette, and
Prof. Horner favored the audience with
a colnic selection, entitled "Happy Days
of Freedom," both of Which perform
ances were highly appreciated. The
, drill and musical examination to
' which the scholars were subjected by
Prof. \VAT. Slack, musical instructor in
the Allegheny schools, was complete
and thorough and gave unquestionable
evidence c of their proficiency in this im
portant branch of study.. - At the conclu
sion of these exercises Rev. A. G. Rirk,
of the Sixth U. P. Church, and Mr. T. J.
Craig, member , of the Pittsburgh Cen
tral Board of Education, delivered short
-addresses on the importance and use
fulness of a musical , education, in
which they both expressed themselves
as highly ple ed with the culture and
careful trainin manifested by the pupils
of the school. The entertainment was
finally brought to a close by the singing
of several comic and sentimental songs
by the Quartette, assisted by the scholars,
and the audience separated well pleased
with the agreeable and instructive man
ner in which the afternoon was spent.

OPERA HOUSE.—The audience at the
Opera House last evening was one of the
largest and most select which has assera
bled there during :the present season.
The entertainment;was a most excellent
Cue. • "La Belle Helene" was presented
by the Worrell Sisters in an admirals
manner. Sophie, as "Helene," although
prevented from singing in consequence
of asevere cold, from which she has been
suffering dining the entire week, was
highly applauded throughout the piece.
Irene, as "Paris," was unexceptionable,
as was.also Miss Jennie in the role she
played. ' She made her greatest bit, hew
ever, in "Nan," the afterplece, in which
she has scarcely au equal. La Belle
Helene will be repeated at the matinee
thislafternoon, with "His Last Legs" as
an afterpiece. This evening "The Field
of the Cloth of Gold," and "Nan."
