| Nov. 5th-An alarm at 8 o'clock, A. NJ, was
caused by fire being discovered in the office Of the
Kennebec Land & Lumber Co., in small wooden
building situated near their steam mill, east side
of the river. The fire caught in sink in one cor
| ner of the room. As there had not been fire in
the stove for % hours, the cause Of the fire re-
| mains mystery. Damage about $50; fully in
sured. The fire department was called out but
| their services were not needed. Here is very
important point that should be looked after; a
| convenient road should be made to the river,
so that the engine could easily pass down and do
effective service. The matter should be looked
after by the company at once.

Loss to the Sprague's Sl700, no insurance Mr..
Woods loss ON building, $1,000, insured for $500,
on furniture 5000, insured for $780, on goods
$500, insured for $500. Williams loss was
$1,000; no insurance. This fire also demon
strated the need of an extra hose carriage that
will carry one thousand feet of hose, to be hauled
by team tho n there will be no lack of hose at a
fire.
1t will be seen from the above, that ouq city has
been wonderfully exempt from the ravages of fire
during the last twelve months. The department
has been called out eight times, and only four Of
these fires that have occurred in this city. The
only fire we have had worth mentioning was that
of November 18th. The total loss BY fires in this
city the past year amounts to $500, on which
there was an insurance Of $3.50.
