Mr.. Charles Potter Ladd, an Augusta boy, now
Of Brookline, Mass, sends us copy of the Brook
line Chronicle containing an account of an anu
sing incident that occurred there account of the
Maine election. Mr.. Aspinwall, for several
years past chairman of the Massachusetts, demo-
cratic State central committee, had collected an
immense pile of brush on his grounds, on Aspin-
wall Hill The pile had been gathered with great
care for the purpose of celebrating this fall some
expected democratic vice tory. He has stated fire.
quently that at proper time it would be set on
fire. But the night of the 18th Of September,
when the glorious news from Maine was flashing
over the wires, was deemed by the Maine boys in
Brookline to be "propcr time" So the brush
pile was fired, and it shed its light for many miles
around, and not a few were the jokes at Mr.. AS
pnwsll's expense as the burning of the brush
took place at the right time to celebrate the Maine
election. Mr.. A.pinwall offers reward of 500
for the conviction of the person who caused the
fire. We warn Charlie not to tell VINO did it!
