THE FIRE.
At little after three O'Clock yester-
day morning the cry of fire-always
terribly ominous of evil to dwellers in
the oil country-startled the citizens
in hot haste from their beds, and soon
the streets were swarming with half
clad humanity, while a lurid glare in
the very heart of the First ward drew
the people to that spot, where the
building owned by lawyer j. T. Smul,
len, and occupied by j. Walrohenstein
as a wholesale liquor store and bot
Ting works, was enveloped in flames.
The hose companies were promptly on
the ground, but there was no water,
the fires were out at the water-works,
and nothing could be done but carry
out goods and let the buildings burn.
A bucket brigade was formed to the
river but the water was so far away
that this was soon abandoned, and the
fire continued on its way until the
large brick store of Wilson IL Mani
fold, on the south, and the brick hotel.
of John Mclaughlin, on the north,
stopped the further advance of the
flames, but the entire heart of the First
ward was mass of ruins.
The loss is terrible one to Parker,
and but very few will rebuild, as there
is nothing here to warrant them in
doing so. Thus in couple of hours
time the city was laid in ashes and
almost entirely blotted out of existence.
Many of the sufferers lost their all and
are penniless.

Singular Conduct of a Nova SEQ
Gian Husband.
Halifax Chronicle. !

Halifax Chronicle
This time Dartmouth is the happy
town which Is the scene of the turning
up OF husband who was supposed, aud
ought TO have been. dead A ship car
penter met his fate in the shape of q
bloomIngyoung lady. They were married
ana for few months all went merrily
Then a cloud came over the matrimoninl
sky, aad there was weeping and wailing
where once all was bliss. The cloud
came IN this manner: The husband found
1t necessary To 60 somewhere in the coun.
try on business. The wife did not hear
from him, and, on inquiry, found that he
had never arrived at his destination
Weeks slipped by, then weeks became
months, and no tidings of the lost hus
band could be obtained. Over two years
| passed, aud the deserted wife mourned
the loss of the departed, and felt that
there was hiatus iE her young life
which could never be filed. She was
young. Adjoining her pew in church
was one occupied by a gentleman who
had long regarded her with admiration.
After a long time it was noticed that
sometimes both were in the same pew,
and it soon became evident that they
were more than friends. Two years and
a half had passed away; surely number
one could not be in the land of the hv
ing. OF course no one else could ever
quite fill the blank left by him; but then
the gentleman who went to church was
nice man, so agreeable, and offered such
sweet words of comfort. They married,
and for month or so happiness reigned
once more in that Dartmouth household.
Then another cloud put in an appearance
in the shape Of letter from husband No.
l. He was very much alive, and wanted
to know what his wife meant by her con
duct. He had been living all the time in
Hants county, working at the shoemak
ing business. She was in ii dilemma
most confounding She loved them
both, and oh. chow happy she could be
with either were 'tother dear charmer
away" beyond the possibility Of returning
No l, not being 0ne of those lovely, self
sacrificing men, emhodying all that is
good and noble in human nature, didn't
come to look at his wife by moonlight
through the parlor window, and then
weep tears of sorrow and steal away to
die alone, like the Enoch of the poem.
No, this Enoch wanted to know how she
could have been so unfaithful to him as
to marry again, and insisted on her com
| ing to him at once and never looking on
the sorrowing countenance of number
two again. Sne took legal advice, and
then separated from number two. For a
time the two separate pews in the church
we're again occupied. Then both were
empty, and it became known that she had
decided in favor Of number two, was liv
| ing with MIN, and had some big brothers
VINO promised to punch number one if he
ever gave them a practical evidence of
his existence in this wDrl |. Thus the
matter stands, and fur her developments
are anxiously awaited.

"NA, LOOK AT EEHNI."
How au Ohio Lad Recognized His
Papa.

Cincinnati Commercial
A year or more ago there came to
Genntown, Ohio, from Lafayettee, Ind,
lady apparently about thirty-five years
of age. She gave her name as Mollie
Grimes, and, it is said, stated that she
had been a wife, but was divorced from
her husband. To back up her assertion
of wifehood, there was the living proof
proof of her being accompanied by a
young lad Of eleven or twelve years Of
age, who called her ''mother." Soon
after coming to Genntown young lady
of about eighteen years of age also arriv-
ed, and was received as the daughter of
the divorced wife. Things went quietly
on for a time, and this history would
most probably never have been written
had not Cupid put in an appearance.
The lady, "Moilie Grimes,,' became
enamored Of one of the sturdy yeomanry
of that section named William Thomp-
son, and her tender feelings were amply
reciprocated by William. They were
married. For nearly year they have
been enjoying the sweets Of connubisl
bliss, and one olive branch has been sent
them as a token that heaven smiled upon
the mediums of hand-bills and verbally
last Sabbath, that one Rev. o. z.
Sounds, "a famous evangelist" would
preach at Genntown, beginning on We'd
nesday evening. The people turned out
en- masSe, and the house was crowded.
At the appointed time the evangelist put
in an appearance, and was preparing to
open the meeting, when the young lad
mentioned above very suddenly recog
nized in the good minister his own pater-
famtliasl The, ,precocious youth at once
made his discovery known to the assem-
bled multitude, his mother, strange to
say, joining in with a will in the work of
Identification. But the good man would
not be identified. He persisted that
'Mollie Grimes WAS not his wife, and
"Mollie Grimes, D forgetting her "sweet
William" persisted with as much vehe-
m nee that the Rev. o. p Sounds,
evangelist was her husband, and denied
| the matter of divorce. The young boy
is positive that his father is no other than
Mr. Sounds, and the young lady, who is
visiting at Franklin, has, in the mean
/ time, been sent for to settle the dispute.
/ The woman, now known as Mrs. Thomp-
/ son, says that she lett her husband, ".
/ P. Sounds, at Lafayette, Ind, about one
| year ago, because he was confirmed
/ opium eater. She does not, however
explain why she gave her name as Mol
lie Grimes, nor why she then stated that
she was divorced from her first husband,
which she now denies. These are little
feminine inconsistencies that do not seem
to trouble her peaceful soul
The hardest rub is on William. Hi:
wife cleaVeth not as she should, anc
would fain fly from his to other arms
that are not outstretched to receive her
And during all this confusion the Rev
Mr.. Sounds is diligently at work in al
| effort to get up revival in Genntown.
