DESTROYED.


Destroyed.
Between three and four o'clock on
Sunday sfteruoon. the Plsniog Mill "a.
discovered to be on Gre inside. and before
anything could be done toward saving it,
the fsmes had reached such heads way
that oil efforts were useless 10 that direc.
ton, but we're directed to save surround
ing property. Picrce's Livery Stable was
savsd with great difficulty. When the
FIRE commenced, the wind wse blowing
from the esst. and hsd It continued so q
few minutes longer. all the town bslow
the hotel would have been destroyed, and
probably more. Bat the wind suddenly
ehifted to the south. driving the fumes
toward the river. Shuck's blacksmith.
shop. near the planiog mill. was saved,
With one side pretty well cbarred. Gin
ders were carried up The river as far as
Beeler's Ssw-Mill setting. the saw-dust
and pile Of lumber on FIRE. Bot no
damage was done there. The tops Of
two walnut trees in the Livery Stable
lot we're set on fire, and one had to be
cot down to extinguish the flames. 1t is
almost q miracle that the stable was saved.
1t has not been sscertained with GER
tsinty how the Ere originated. bat the
general opinion is that it was caused BY
some small boys who were in the mill
with matches. The floor was covered
with shaviugs. and the FIRE spread with
great rapidity. The loss of Moyns &
Parks is total. as there was no insurance
IN the property. The value of the mill
and lamber destroyed was about $4,000.
Much Of the lumber belonged 20 the pro.
prietors. and some of it to customers.
The dressed shelving for Blilsy & Noyes'
new store was in the building, and al
destroyed.
The loss is sad one to the proprie' ors.
and heavy one to the community. The
advantages Of the mill were just begin.
ming to be appreciated. and it was kept
busy day and night. It has been pro-
posed that assistance be given in rebuild.
ing the mill: bot ss nothing definite has
yet been settled upon. We are unable to
state whether it will be rebuilt or not.
