Under Geo. w. Jones and the other over
seers of the poor, and Mr.. Turner, the su'
perintendent, some very good things have
been done or are in process Of completion
about the poor farm premises. The large
barn was fast going to ruin but some new
foundation timbers have been put in and iron
rods stretched across It from one side to the
other, 90 that 1t 10 now good for many years
Of service. And all At little expense too.
But the best thing will be the con struction
of sort of pond to be used in case Of Are.
This is located just below the road ~ you ap-
proach the farm house, and 10 formed BY OK.
tending stone wall across the lower end Of
q sort of hollow. The wall is eight feet
through at the bottom and four ss the top,
will be pointed up with cement and will make
reservoir capable Of holding Ave thousand
hopsheads Of water. The wherewithl to
fill the place will come naturally from the
hillside, and from two living springs in the
very limits Of the pond. This will not only
be Of service in case Of the poor farm build
ings taking Gre, but will be available in case
Of such calamity anywhere ON North street.
The most Of this work has been edone by
Mr.. Turner, and the inmates Of the aims
house. This near supply Of water will
probably enable better rates Of insurance be-
ins obtained. Besides these improve
ments, the system Of drainage about the place
has been put In splendid condition. The
stones which were used in making the dam

brance and IN unsightiy thing upon the premi-

Sltempt made some time, on Tuesday night,
to set on Are the school house on Crosby
street. When tie scholars had gathered
there yesterday morning . strong ordor Of
kerosene prevailed, and on investisstion it
was discovered that in the hall leading to the
cellar there was . collection Of cinders, that
the lashes of the partition we're burned snd
blackened, and that the door and stairway
were discolored BY kerosene oil. II SCENE
wonderful that after the Gre had got under
way as far as appears that the building did
not burn. The care shown By the vould-bs
incendiary is worthy Of notice. The school
house 10 the one which stands on the verge
of the high sand bank, and FIRE here would
have lighted up the neishborhood in Ane
style. 1t Is also isolated and probably would
have been the only building destroyed, and
the fact of it, standing alone made discovery
almost impossible. An entrance wss easily
made into the cellar through window and at
the head of the stairs the attempt
was made. If it had succeeded the Gre
would have made good hesdwsy before being
discovered.
