The building was insured in the Yer

at $500. No insurance on the furniture,

Temperance AT GIens Fails,

The Glens Falls temperance people have
appointed committee for the prosecution
of liquor dealers who violate the law in
their traffic. They have also subscribed to
fund of 100000 to be used in carrying
on the prosecutions. They are very much
in earnest in their undertaking, and the
liquor sellers are finding it necessary to be
very cautious as to how they deal out their
beverages. One of their fraternity found
himself very unpleasantly confronted by
the temperance prosecutors few days ago.
He was fined 500 and ordered to prison
life for a few months for being careless
about obeying the laws.
