Gardiner, Me-, 20. There was narrow
escape from destructive fire at the new
mills, Gardiner. About quarter past two this
afternoon an alarm of fire was given, which
proved to be caused by fire breaking out in
the second story of /. N. Harding & Co. s
Qormerly Stanwood g. Tower's) wrapping
paper mill. When first seen the fire was is.
suing from the cutter room, driving the men
from that room and spreading like power.
Superintendent Carroll, who has charge of
the mill, was promptly on hand, and to his
credit it is due that whole mill and contents
were saved. lie quickly ran the hose to the
cutter room from the steam pump, and with
his men fought the flames bravely. In only
twenty minutes the fire was extingushed. 1t
was almost a miracle, owing to the combusta-
ble nature Of the stock Cute bntts). The
loss on stock, cutter and betting will probably
reach five hundred dollars. Insured The
fire department was on hand, but their SER
vices were not needed.

The capacity of the new water works to
| furnish water for the use of the fire depart
ment, in case Of fire, was fully tested last
evening in Court House square. The suction
OF the steamer was connected to the hydrant
oy coupling made for that purpose. The
water was let on and the steamer played
through $50 feet of hose, using several sizes
OF nozzles, the largest of which was one and
one quarter inch A compact and beautiful
stream of water was thrown, against the wind,
distance of about 100 feet. There
appeared to be no lack of water while the
trial lasted, for more than half an hour. The
steamer was then withdrawn, and the Atlantic
engine continued the trial. length Of lead
ing hose furnished the water to the engine
from the hydrant. Water was furnished in
abundance, and the best the boys could do,
the club" was washed" once or twice. The
Atlantic threw fine stream. In fact the en-
tire test was satisfactory in the extreme, and
everybody last night wanted to take stock in
the courageous johnson, who has brought the
enterprise to successful issue.

IHE CATHOLICS AND TIE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
New York, 25 The Times publishes an
article this morning to show that the Catholic
clergy are ust now making extraordinary eff
forts to establish sectaran schools, and notes
it is part of plan to destroy the present
public school system. The chief support of
the public schools is the payment of $40 per
capita on the whole number of children
taught, and it is thought that by establishing
Catholic schools, the schools in some districts
will be closed for want of scholars and the
per capita allowance.
