was filed with a dense smoke, but drop
ping Hat upon the floor he crcpt in to the
sprinkler, which he turned on, and the
picker room was instantly filled with
streams OF water falling in every part
which deadened the fire. Every window
was cracked and broken, aud several
streams of water from the hydrants were
then turned on, completely exiinguishing
the flames in a brief time. The fire is
supposed to have originated in spontane-
Gus combustion under lot Of Flaps"
which were laid upon the floor Possibly
bit of oily waste may have been on the
floor under them. The picker was not
run after six O'Clock. The loss will prob-
ably not exceed $500. Fully insured.

.Nr. Edit0r:-l have taken your paper
called the Oxford Democrat, for twelve
years. The first four years lived in By
ron, then known rs Hop city. and never
failed getting the paper the next day AZ
ter il was struck off. The next three
years | lived in Dixfield, and never failed
to get it in due course of mail. The
next three years lived in Boston, and
there | never failed of getting it Saturday
morning; but since have lived in Phil
lips, which is about two years, one half
the time, at least. don't get it until the
next Tuesday after it is struck off Friday.
Now should like 10 know why could
not get it Friday, or at least, Saturday
night, every week. There must be some
mismanagemcnt somewhere. | want the
paper, and want it Saturday night but If
cannot get it until Tuesday, shall not
stop the paper, but feel g rieved.
p. S. If there is anything you can do
for me, please inform me through the
columns of the Oxford Democrat. For
fear you will not print the above, / will
relate an incident that tran1pircd in this
vicinity.
There was 4 man taken sick and died,
buried two miles up the river from where
he lived, on Il farm. He left a wife, a
son and daughter, and some property.
Just before he died, he made his will, and
willed his wife two-thirCls. his son one
dollar, and the daughter the remainder.
At the time OF the late ,Ireshei the old
man was washed out OF his grave, and
floated down the river, and lodged on the
old farm where he died. The people in
this section thought it very strange that
he should lodge at the old homestead;
the son said there was nothing strange,
nor frightful; he called there to get that
dollar he willcd me-"
The paper is regularly mailed on Fri
day forenoon. and ought to reach Phillips
the same day, or The next, at farthest.
Will the p. NJ. see where the trouble is?
