Last Thursday night about 8 o'clock persons living in the vicinity of the College street bridge near the junction were startled by the loud screams of a child.

The child proved to be the seveu-year-old daughter of James Clark, who lives on the east side of the bridge.

The Company Smells a Rat.

Some two weeks ago the hoiiBe of Mrs Catharine Buchanan, on J..aue avenue, was destroyed by fire. It will be remembered that the fire occurred about 3 o'clock a. when the family were iu the country on a visit. A few days previous to the conflagration Mrs. Buchanan and her son, William, had the contents of the house insured in the Ohio Farmers' Insurance Company and last Monday the adjuster of Bnid company arrived in the city to pay the claims. In the evidence gleaned concerning the affair the adjuster learned that William had been seen about the house on the evening preceding the blaze, which, together with the young man's actions, led the adjuster to remark that William knew more about the fire than he cared to relate. He further declared that Mrs. Buchanan's lo^s would be paid iu full bet that William would not get one cent, and departed from the city leaving the matter just in this manner. William biled over with rage. He said he had lost $200 worth of clothing and some other effects in the fire which he did not propose to lose without an effort and iu consequence threatens to bring suit ajjainst the company to revover the amount.
