DESTRUCTION OF a FINE WOODEN Fac
To"Y.-The fine wooden factory at Bruce
town, belonging to Mr.. VIM. lobe, was de-
stroyed by fire on Wednesday afternoon las,
about 3 o'clock. The factory, for three years,
has been leased and operated by MIR. John j..
lobe, and he had made in the eastern and
local markets an enviable reputation for the
texture and beauty of his goods. The fire
originated in the machinery from some cause
we have not heard. and the flames spread with
so much ~rapidity that the whole building aud
machinery were soon envcloped in fire, and
together with a quantity of wool and goods
were a total ruin. We understand that Mr..
Jobe, Sr., has policies of insurance on she
factory building of 5000, $4,000 of tho
amount being in the Loudoun company and
81 1000 in the Southern Mutual. MIR. John
lobe, whose loss is estimated at $50, 900, is
uninsured Winchester Ne,rS.
