The Episcopal Parish House.
Mr. Silas McBee, the distinguished
church architect of New York, is ia the
city. He is tq-day engaged in drawing
plans for the proposed Episcopal Parish
House, a sketch of which we published
some time ago. These plans will be sub
mitted to the committee this evening and
probably some definite arrangement will
be reached before he leaves to-night.
Mr. McBee thinks that the building
should be located on the south eastern
corner of St. John's church where 'the
belfry now stands and be connected with
the, Vestry Room of the church by a
cloister. It was at first proposed to build
it along side the church, between the
church and the Rectory.
The Scarlatina.
The scare has about subsided and the
people are going about their work as
usual, though it must be admitted many
of them wear little bags around their necks
and are seen to put lumps of tar in their
water. .
As soon as the Observer expelled the
cloud of mystery by publishing a list of
the infected houses and the people saw
that it was by no means an epidemic they
became better satisfied. Only one new
case has been reported to-day, that of one
of Geo. Scurlock's little children.
The cases already reported are doing
well with the exception of one of Mr. Jas.
Johnson's little girls. She was very sick
last night and at one time it was thought
that she could not live the night out,
though she rallied, and is some better this
afternoon.
No "Scarlet Feer" placards have been
placed on Mr. W. H. Tomlinson's house,
though it was at first thought by Dr. Mc
Duffie that one of the children was threat
ened. In our account yesterday we said "Yel
low Fever" "placards had been put up, etc.
It should have been, of course, Scarlet
Fever placards.
The doctors say that we quoted them
wrong yesterday in saying that the cold
weather would have a tendency to kill the
germs, that cold weather would kill yellow
fever germs but not Scarlet fver.

THE FLEA HILL FENCE AGAIN BURNED.
The War is on Once More.
Our correspondent in Flea Hill sent us
the following dispatch by a messenger this
borning: "Fence burned from Plank
Road and still burning all along the line
as far as the eye can see.. Was discovered
at 5 o'clock this morning."
The war has broken out again and live
ly times may be expected. J
It will be remembered that several miles
of this stock law fence which had just been
erected, was recently burned, and the
County offered 50 and the State 100 dol
lars for 1 the apprehension -of the guilty
parties.
Detectives from abroad were employed,
but after several weeks investigation, they
adandoned the search. The Fence Commis
sioners immediately commenced to have
the fence rebuilt. With the exception of the
occasional pulling up of a post or cutting
of a wire, all has gone along smoothly. It
is now very evident that a secret organiza
tion is responsible for this lawlessness, as
everything is done with method and pre
cision and great secrecy. In fact, a gen
tleman from that neighborhood informs
us that there is such a society.!
From the latest report we understand
that about a mile of the fencing was burn
ed. Those who were awakened by the
glare of the flames say that a number of
persons must have been concerned in the
deed as the flames shot up simultaneously
along the whole distance.
There are two factions in Flea Hill, one
claiming that the Stock Law Bill was pass
ed by fraud against the wishes of a major
ity ot the people, and the other claiming
that it was passed legally upon a petition
to the Legislature by a majority of the
land holders.
The fence is being built according to
a law passed by the late Legislature, and
until that law is repealed or declared void
on account of fraud it is gross lawlessness
to interfere, however much the people may
think they have been wronged.
