Another Destructive Fire I'm Fair
Haven.

On Sunday evening, at about half past
seven o'clock, our village was again start
led by the cry of fire. 1t proceeded from
Graves block, and evidently originated in
the rear of Sumpter s. Bro's. Clothing
Store, or in the rear OF Deeelle's billiard
room. In the course of an hour, Graves
block was in ashes, and its numerous in
mates turned into the street Augustus
Graves owned the building, and his loss
is not much short of $4,000, on which
there was $4,000 insurance-$2000 being
in the Vermont Mutual. The occupants
sustained losses as follows, as near as We
can ascertain at this time f. II. Shep-
ard & Co., grecers, loss $500, insured for
$1,000: A. Decelle, billiard saloon, loss
$1,000, no insurance L. Kellogg, druggist,
loss $500, fully insured; E. Demo,
clothing and fancy goods, loss $1,000, no
insurance; Sumpter & Bros, clothing,
loss 800, no insurance; S. IL. Myers,
photographer, loss $500, no insurance; P.
A. Baker, photographer, loss 800, in
sured for $500; John Day, barber, loss
$50, no insurance: G.. D. Spencer, Mrs.
Hubbard and the Misses Howard occu-
pied tenements in the block Mr.. Spen-
GERS loss was about $3.50, insured.
By the almost superhumsn efforts OF
our citizens, the fire was prevented from
spreading, although it was stopped at
Thomas Hughes boot ands shoe store.
which stood within one foot of the burnt
block. Those who suffered from water
and the removal of goods are Thomas
Hughes, shoe store and dwelling, J. M.
Chase, dwelling, W. ]. Rosborough,
dwelling, J. Perkins, ieweler, E. D. Hum
phrey & Co., dry goods, etc, A. Decelle,
boots and shoes, c. V. Carpenter, saloon,
J. III. Bosworth. dwelling, and Miss Man
dester, dress maker.
The cause of the fire ia unknown, but
it is generally thought to be the work of
an incendiary. This block adjoins the
buildings burned on the 9th of Decem-
Der, and destroys about one half of the
business places in our village.

the result will show the truth Of our as

the result will show the truth OF our as
sertion.
Its one of the most humi iating specta'
cles ever exhibited, to see this modern
Moses assume to be the leader OF the
majority of the temperance people OF this
county.
We respect the cause OF temperance,
and are its advocate personally, and
through the columns Of the HERALD, and
willing to labor for its promotion in every
place, but we are not ready to be driven
by whip and lash into the advocacy Of q
political temperance party, especially
under the leadership of zealots like james
K. Mclean, or under the revilings of a
reverend ranter, who has neither respect
for the living or the dead nor do we wish
to become their supporters, or OF those
who follow in their wake.

PERSONAL. - Ex-Congressman III. d.
Washburn, surveyor-general of Montana,
who died recently of pulmonary disease,
was native of Windsor, VT, born in
1882.
Edward Conant, the able Principal
of the Normal School at Randolph, has
received the offer of salary of $4,000, to
take charge Of the New Hampshire State
Normal School. Mr.. Conant declines the
offer, and much to his credit will remain
at the head Of the Randolph Normal
School.
The Free Press says: "The paragraph
which we published Friday, stating that
DR.. Lord of Montpelier had received and
declined call to the Central church at
Hartford, Conn, we now learn was un-
authorized and incorrect. The statement
came from Montpelier, and was corrobo-
rated by information received through
sources likely to be well informed. But
no such call has been received by DIR.
Lord, and Of course none declined.

THE STATE TEMPERANCE CONVEX

THE STATE TEMPERANCE CoNvEN.
TIoN.-Mr. Charles A. J. Marsh of St
Albans, one of the delegates to the Gen.
eral Temperance Convention. who report
ed the proceedings for the Messenger,
comments as follows on the action of the
Convention
Judging it by the number of resolu-
lions passed, it certainly did work enough;
but whether they will amount to any
more than the 'pious resolutions" report
ed from some of the county societies, or
| indicate more than an "annual breathing
on the part of those present, remains to
be seen. During the discussion it was re-
marked by Rev. G. e Ferrin that when
men lacked the moral courage to do their
duty at home it was not only a very cheap,
but a very cowardly thing to come to-
gether and ask convention to use the
lash they themselves dare not WELD
There was apparently some occasion for
the remark. Aside from this the action
of the Convention looking towards indie.
pendent political organization, was consi-
dered doubtful policy by many in the
Convention and doubtless will be by many
temperance men not there and il regard
ed by any simply as lash held up with.
out any expectation of its being used, it
must indicate weakness rather than
strength.

A STAGE COACH ACCIDENT.-The stage
from Johnson to Waterbury, which leaves
Johnson at 2 o'clock in the morning, was
overturned mile below Morrisville, on
the morning of the 4th inst. The wind
blew hurricane, the horses got out Of
the road, the driver, Allen Place, could
not see his way through the whirling
snow clouds, and the result was an upset,
which under the circumstances was no
laughing matter. There were eight or
nine passengers inside and young man
on the outside including Mr.. Nesley and
family, and Miss Barber of Hyde Park. J.
Dougherty, civil engineer, Miss Nellie
White, Miss Jennie Morse of Duxbury
and Geo. Cove of Boston. These escaped
one danger, of broken bones, by the cir
oumstance that the four horses cleared
themselves from the stage. From the
further peril of suffocatiop, as all were
fastened in the coach in heap, they were
rescued by the driver, who also pulled the
outside passenger out of snow drift in
which he like to smother. After a
walk of half mile in the storm, the
party found refuge in the hospitable man.
sion of Mr.. james Sturges. The damage
done was found to be summed up in a
few bruises, torn clothes, and loss of some
false hair, and all reached Waterbury by
noon in safety.
