SEPARATOR BURNED. Friday even
ing little after 9 o'clock, the separator,
belonging to Mr.. j. M. Currier, Of this
county, was burned. During the day the
machine had been threshing for James Cain,
on the farm of Mr.. Currier, and no fire had
been about the machine-no straw burned.
just as some of the men were retiring for
the night, at the barn, they discovered a
light at the thresher, some four hundred
yards distant. They ran thither, in great
haste, and succeeded in saving the patent
nneasurer, the tool box; two wagons, lone
on either side of machine), and about two
hundred bushers of wheat, all of which,
together with the horsepower, would
undoubtedly have been destroyed but for
the timely discovery of the fire. The fire
is supposed to have been the work of an in
6endiary, although there IS no clue to the
f9rpetrator. Hanging is too good for the
scamp who would perform such dastardly
act. Mr.. Currier has an old separator which
was repaired and took the place of the one
burned.

The Pennington Narrow Gauge Rail-
road.
A gentleman in this city has received the
following letter, which gives some interesting
facts concerning the Harrington narrow gauge
railroad:
STRONG, Nov. 4, 1879.
1t is now fixed fact that this town, the
place of your nativity and of my juvenile years
has at length become connected with the out
side world by railroad.
On the 9th of October past, the locomotive
with the construction train and box car, on the
Sandy River narrow gauge railroad, first ar
rived in Strong village, and on its return TO
Pennington that evening, by invitation of Mr.
Mansfield, the father of this enterprise, rode
down returning the next morning. | coul d
but think it a somewhat singular coincidence
that | happened by chance to be in town at the
first arrival of railroad train into the village,
as am now the only living person who had
aught to do with the first establishment of the
village which was in 1914, when all around
was an unbroken forest save a few acre s OF
felled trees and q half covered saw mill on the
stream, no road to or through the place, as you
well know.
AS to this narrow gauge road, am struck
with admiration. l have travelled at least
1900 miles on railroads and must say that
never rode over new one that carried me SO
smoothly, without jolt or oscillation, as this,
and it is a marvel what ponderous loads these
little engines will draw. Fromswhat 1 have
witnessed of their power l verify believe if
this road was extended to Lewiston that it
would do all the business on the entire line.
The only question now to be settled is ''how
will it work in deep snow?'' II on trial it
proves as efficient as it is claimed it WILL it is
MY opinion that it is only o matter Of time
when all branch railroads in the state win be
narrow gauge.
The people here justly anticipate great ad-
iNyt hot Rrril
bring them nearer to bushes centres, markets,
&C., but from the fact that this is the point
where the towns of Freeman, Salem, King
field, New Vineyard and part of New Port
land can most conveniently strike the rail
road.
They are seriously alive to the necessity Of
a good hotel in the village, there being no Ii
censed public house here.
One Of the prominent men Of the village
said to me thar he could furnish an eligible
site, and would himself invest $1,000 in the
necessary buildings for good hotel
