WE 11A11 vim pleasure the announce.

We HAIL with pleasure the announce.
ment that several ofour leading manufac-
turing establishments are about TO adopt
Monday instead Of Saturday, as pay day.
1t is no insult to our army Of workingmen
10 say that the innovation will do much
good towards advancing their pecuniary
interests. In all lines Of trade and indus.
try Saturday and Sunday are regarded as
quasi holidays-days on which money is
expended in the attainment of question:.
bic enjoyments in the way Of eating and
drinking. A plethoric purse sbleeda
liberally but an empty one cannot Re.
move the opportunity for; spending and
extravaganza will soon cease. II the day
laborer gets his money on Monday, the
beginning Of his week Of toll he will put
1t away, If married, IN the hands Of his
wife, and will be forced 10 economize.
To most Of our working people payday
IS sort Of Fourth Of July. They
dearly earn their money, but when It Is
IN their hands care little about 1t and let
tho dimes and dollars go with prohigate
looseness when seated In a joival .Ssiur-
day night crowd. Let them get their
wages while at work and they will moi
hie away TO the tempting bar.rooms: hut
will place their earnings beyond their
reach and give up the frolics growing out
of the fact that few dollars swell Their
pocket.boOks. We sincerely hope thaI
the Inauguration of Monday as payday
will be tried as an experiment by all 81
our. heavy manufacturing firms, ant
trust that its general adoption viii bl
attended with salutatory effects anC
greatly conduce to the betterment Of th,
social and financial conditions Of al
grades OF our laborlng people, At best
1t Is no harm to try the experiment. A
penniless man on Saturday night Cal
hardly be o proaigate.-Rtts. GaRettes

THE FIRE, for which an alarm was given
from box No. H. at half past ten o'clock last
night, was in the wooden building next to the
Waldo house on Waldo street. belonging to the
estate Of the late Levi Lincoln, occupied by
William G. Bios as a cabinet and furniture
mandatory, and Hildreth & Wilson as a store
room. The fire was undoubtedly the work of
an incendiary, as it originated in pile of shaw
ings near window in the basement, where
there is never a fire, and ran through II long
box, which is used to convey the shavings from
the second story into the basement into the
work room in the second story, where it COM
municatcd with the paints and oils The build
ing was badly damaged in the upper story,
while the lower portion was completely flooded
with water. The building is valued at $4,000,
and the damage to it will not be far from $1,000,
which is probably covered by insurance The
stock and tools, owned by William c.
Bios, were valued at $4,000, upon
which it is impossible at present to
state the loss, as portion of the stock was not
damaged by fire, it being eXtinguished before it
had communicated to the room in which the
finished stock was stored. The finished stock
consisted Off number Of New York style desks
and cabinet bedSteads, while the unfinished
stock that was in the work room was COM
posed of cabinet work in various stages of man
ulacture. Hildreth & Wilson occupied por-
ton of the basement as a store room, their
stock only being damaged by water. The stock
owned by Bios is insured in John d. Wash
burns agency and in the Bay State of this city.
During the fire number Of the iremen were
cut by pieces of falling slate that came from the
roof but none OF them were seriously injured.
