Fire.
On last Sunday morning. the lutheran
Ssxton's house. occupied by Mrs. Bowm n,
was discovered to be on fire. The frs
had gained considerable Roadway before
it was discovered. The fr., company
were promptly OH the ground and checked
the progress oi the HE at once. In Il
few minutes it WAS entirely extiiigllished.
The engine was III excellent condition and
the efficiency Of the company was fully
den onstrated. Many WHO have charged
the town council with an unnecessary ex-
penditure OF FUNDS in purchasing a fire
| engine. will now, we suppose, agree that
the engine should have been purchased
about ten days before this fire. 1t was, III
| deed, . very stupid act in the council to
purchase the engine so long before it was
| needed. However, we hopa.that notwith-
standing the severe criticisms which may
be INDUCED in, there may be no use for a
fire engine for number of years.

: On every fair day in this city may be
witnessed shameful and cruel treatment OF
animals which would give the impression
that We lived among halt savage people,
and, at any rate, that the law against cruelty
to animals was so entirely ignored as to be
dead letter on our statute books. 1t is a
disgrace that the authorities Go not take
the matter in hand and see to the necessary
enforcement of this law, the violation OF
which is so repulsive to our better nature.
A man capable of treating in an inhuman
manner dumb animal, is, to our mind,
competent for almost anything in the cate
CORY of crime and needs looking after. If
some examples were made of those in the
habit Of practicing these acts Of cruelty we
would probably have fewer of these revolt
ing scenes to witness. Let US all do THAT
We can to suppress such barbarous conduct.

The women of Watertown have organized
temperance movement and during the
past week held several meetings favorable
to the cause at Good Templar's Hall. The
efforts of the Association thus far are main
ly directed towards the enforcement of the
Sunday Law, and the circulation of total
abstinence pledges. We understand that
in the work of obtaining signers the ladies
have been quite successful, and so ia, as
they can accomplish any good they have
our sympathy. Last Sunday evening
a Union Mass Meeting in the cause OF Tenn
perance was held at the Congregational
Church. Addresses were made by Rev. Mr..
Mills, DAME: Hall, Rev. c. G. Cragn, J.
H. Lightbody and others, giving various

particularly fine, while their burlesques,
dances, ETC., are chaste and fun provoking,
deserving more extended notice than our
