SPONTANEOUS OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES sin.
gular accident aud one. too, had it not been
discovered as timely as it was, might have re
suited in the destruction of large amount
of valuable machinery, occurred on Saturday
evening last, at the mills of the Autie.am
Paper Company. situsted about 9 miles
northeast of town. Just before the closing
of the mills Mr.. Wesley Guy, the superins
tendent. had occasion to go into what is known
as the asserting room," when he discovered
the odor of burning rags, aud, upon search
being made, found that-it proceeded from an
unopened bale of that article. Quickly open
ing it, however, a mass of smouldering fire was
found in the centre, which had been produced
by thefspontaneous ignition of some greasy
wooden rags. Tits well that the discovery
was made when it was, as in short time
thereafter the mills would have been closed
until the following Monday during which
time the hidden fire might have attained such
hssdway as to have gotten beyond the power
of extinguishing before the entire property
would have been consumed.
