A box ear attached to a south-bound freight train caught (ire at Seville Monday night. The conductor soon hail the car de tached and switched off on the side-track, but out of reach of all buildings. As soon as possible the tire department took control, and was soon pouring a heavy stream of water from a hydrant upon the devouring element, which Vapidly succumbed, or the result might have proven serious for the community, ns the car contained, unknown to tho diligent workers, two twenty-live pound canisters of gunpowder. If this had exploded it would have resulted, probably, in tiie death or injury of numbers of citi zens. Ttie contents of the car consisted mostly of household goods and a few articles of merchandise consigned to some southern point.

It was checked through to St. Augustine, atid he saw it taken from the baggage car in Jacksont ille, but since then all traces of it Rave been lost, apparently, although hois assured l>y the railroad authorities that it will doubt less turn up in a day or two all right. It contained goods valued at $4,500, princi pally embroidered silk dress patterns, screens, wraps and shawls, and its loss will lie a serious one to old Ihrim Bok. A number of orange growers and citizens of Oviedo and Lake Charm met at Oviedo a day or two ago. The secretary was re quested to read a communication from the Railroad Commission, which included a let ter from VV McCoy, General Freight and Ticket Agent of the South Florida railroad, in which he stated that the rates on the K & I. [{. branch were so low prior to Dec. 1 that they would have been {advanced any way if the commission had taken no action. Mr. McCoy also asserted that iffthe old rates were restoml. the commission would hear from the merchants, as rates on mer chandise) were greatly reduced. The meet ing developed the fact that the merchants of Oviedo would prefer the old rates, for they claim that the little saving o t their freight is not to be considered against the advance, not only on oranges, Imt on fertilizers, hay and grain. The views of the various gentlemen who addressed the meeting were that while they desired t o deal fairly with the company, it the officials would not accord to their request, they would resort to steamboat transportation. On motion a committee of one was appointed to confer with President Ingraham. Rev. R. W. Lawton was appointed such commit tee. Capt. M. E. Brock was appointed a committee to consult with steamboat officials as to rates. Thereat intent of the meeting was expressed iu the following resolution, which was offered by < apt Brock, and t adopted: Whereas, By information con i veyed to us by officials of ihe South Florida Railroad Company, whereby that company ; refuses to comply wit h the request to return :to their former rates; therefore, lie it | resolved, that we, the merchants and orange glowers of I Iviedo and Luke Charm : iigiuu make the request for the former rate with the hope that the company will accede to our reasonable demands, but in the event : that they are not disposed to do so. we shall I lie driven t $ the necessity of resorting to I the patronage of the si earners. DUEL WIiH A DOG. : Mr. Hugues' Terrific Encounter With Hia Pet Cur. /V. mi the Mew York star. j Tho loud, shrill scream of a woman, at I 2:80 o'clock Saturday morning, attracted the attention of Henry Freeman and Will iam Schwartz, as they sto -I at the corner of Third avenue* and East 117til street. The 'sounds were ma lt' by Mrs. Edward Hugues, of No. 2150 Third avenue, whither the young men proceeded hastily, *>nd were im- by the woman to come in and save her husband s life. Hugues keeps a small cigar store, a barber shop being in the rear. In this latter apart ment Freeman nnd Schwartz found Hugues prostrate oil the floor, struggling fiercely with a huge dog, which had already bitten him in several places. Freeman seized n chair, and belabored tho vicious brute, while Schwartz tried to drag him from the prostrate man. Every blow tiiat fell on the infuriated animal seemed to heighten bis anger and make him fight all the harder. Not for a moment would the dog loosen his hold upon his breathless and suffering adversary, who lav bleeding on the floor. Une heavy blow splintered the chair, but bad no effect upon the beast, which clung to his fallen master like a lion to his prey, despite the united efforts of both the young men to free the unfortunate man. In the wild excitement of the moment no one seemed to have presence of mind to shoot or stab the beast, and the iv|ieated screams aud yells of the frantic wife brought Private Watchman David Bull to the scene, who immediately joined in the attack. All this time the bruised und bleeding man was writhing in agony and calling to the crowd, who had. by this time gathered, to save him. ‘'Kill the brute! cut his throat!” yelled tile victim, as he held on to the dog’s ears to keep him tram tearing off the flesh from his lateral ed neck. I hcn it wus that Watchman Bull thought of liis revolver, und quick as a Uadi lie pulled it and emptied the five chambers at the dog. but without effect, for only one ball entered liis Iddv, and that merely served to infuriate him all the more. Tin leportof the pistd threw the entire neighborhood Into a great state of excite ment, ami a )s>sse of poUeemen came run- j nine to the sjiot. but none had a ] idol, and ail the clubs in the precinct would not serve any purpose. Finally I’olieeman Mci ail got a long sword, and after several tlespor ate uttcmiN managed to run tho Itrute I through. The animal then fell l.ack dead. wit,,i the l.looii of his victim trickling from ; his ugly jaws. The wounded man wins taken to the Har i lem Hospital, where, after an examine ion, i it. was found that liis injuries w-re very serious, if not fatal. Both < ic-eks were I terribly lacerated and torn. One side of ! the nose was t' maw-av. and the Ib-h of his | chin and throat was fearfully gashel > posing tlie windpipe. Mr. Hugues said he was teasing tin clog when it attacked him; tlial it wit- arr, ,ugr>-l cur of no particular breed. All the children in the vicinity w ere in the habit of playing with the dog, but h>- never attempted to bite them. He seemed to have a rooted antipathy to his master and no one else.

Condition of the Structure Jan. 1, 1888—The Cost to Date. From the Atlanta (Oct.i Constitution. The General Assembly of Georgia, at its session in 188.1, passed an act providing for the erection of a State capitol building, which received the executive approval on Sept. 8, 1883. It contemplated that six years would be consumed in the erection of the building, but the building was to be completed Jan. 1, 1889, and the appropria tions were made: First year, 9100,QUO; five subsequent years, SIBO,OOO each. But’ a year*was lost between the introduction and passage of tho bill, leaving in reality only live years for that purpose. The city of Atlanta surrendered to the Sriite authorities, duly cancelled, the out standing lien against the present capitol building in the name of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company. On Oct. 4, 1883, Messrs. E. P. Alexander, Phillip Cook, Benjamin E. Crane, A. L. Miller and IV. W. Thomas took the oath of office and filed their bonds as Capitol Commissioners. The board organized by electing Mr. W. H. Harrison as Clerk. On Oct. (1, 1883, they advertised for plaus for the proposed capitol building, fixing the time of opening the bids or. Dec. 10, 1888, but on Nov. 13 the time was extended until noon of Jan. 16, 1884. Mr. George B. Post was secured as coil suiting architect, and the designs for the building were opened on Jan. 10, 1884, and submitted to Mr. Post on Feb. 4. On Feb. 11 he reported, and the board selected the design submitted by Messrs. Edbrooks & Barn ham, they agreeing to certain modili cations. Messrs. Edbrooks & Barnhain were appointed supervising architects, and instructed to prepare duplicate and litho graph copies of the principal plans, sections and elevations, etc. On April 3, 1884, the board advertised for proposals for furnishing materials and con struction of the Georgia State capitol build ing, to be submitted by July 15, 1884. On tho day specified tho board met and re jected all the bids, because none of them would enable the building to lie erected within the limit of the uinount fixed by law. The board re advertised, mid on Sept. 20, 1884, met and accepted the alternate bids of Messrs. Miles and Horn, amounting to $802,756 76. A contract with Messrs. Miles and Horn was approved and executed on Wept. 30, 1884. The board finding tiiat more land was needed to square the lot, obtained from the city a deed to the part of McDonough street necessary, and purchased land from citi zens, paying therefor $90,600. The old City Hall building was sold on October 15, 1884, for $985, and ground broken for the new building on the 26th of October, 1884, one year after the passage of the act. On Septcmlier 2, 1885, the corner stone was laid. Commissioner R. E. Crane having died on January 15, 1885, Hon. Evan I’. How ell was appointed his successor. DESCRIPTION OK THE BUILDING. When the material and debris are re moved from around t he structure the public will, at a glance, take in theeditie< iu all its symmetry, grandeur and beauty. The style is that of the classic renaissance. The main front on Washington street shows a central projection imposing in its dimensions, the mum entrance being emphasized by a massive portico. The design combines, in a high degree, the qualities of dignity, ele gance aud impressive simplicity. An idea of tho proportion and size of tho building may be gathered from its dimensions.
