which will engage the attention Of the people dur

depend the fate of the nation for many years to

which saved it, or given over to the party which
sought its life-whether the purity of the ballot
and the freedom of the suffrage to be preserved

ton of independent States, without cohesion and
without common interests common RESPONSIBILITIES
and a common destiny-these are questions CON
corning which no thoughtful and patriotic mind
can be Indifferent The journal will continue to
give its influence for the nation as against section
aism, for the purity of the ballot as against cor
ruption and violence, and for the maintenance OF
Republican principles, sound finance and an honest
currency.

Friday evening last, about o'clock.
Loss estimated at $1,000; insured fol
$3.50 in the Vermont Mutual. Cause
of fire unknown. Everything was all
right when Mr.. Wells left the mill at

have caught from friction.

gle or a sound. Mrs. Wells was the

Another Fire.

About twenty minutes past six Tues
day evening, fire broke out in the ole
Prescott livery stable, on Central street
and almost Immediately following the
discovery, fire burst out the roof, and
the large quantity of straw and hay il
the loft made right smart fire in an
incredibly short time. The fire depart
ment was promptly on hand, and in a
few minutes the fire was under control,
and soon entirely subdued. But before
this was accomplished the roof was
nearly burnt off, and several tons OF
straw and little hay destroyed, to-
gether with one stage sleigh, one single
sleigh, several sleds, a moving machine,
and few other implements. These
articles were all in the store-room in
the end of the barn next the Methodist
church, and although the fire was first
seen in the chamber west of the centre
of the barn, so rapid was its progress
that they could not be removed. A
large number of stages, wagons, ETC., in
the lower part of the barn were saved.
The cause of the fire is mystery
There was no live stock kept in the
barn, and it is not known that any one
went in there during the twenty -four
hours previous. Jerry Drew occupied
the premises mostly for storage. Many
say the fire must heve been set. A pos
sible evidence of this is ii two gallon tin
can found in the ruins, which smells
strong of benzine, or some other infiam-
mable material. The fire went quick
enough to be a benzine blaze. But who
would be reckless enough, even if wick
ed enough, to set a fire in the heart of
the village at that hour of a light,
moonshiny evening, where people are
passing constantly9 Perhaps an inves-
tigatiOn may give some light Oh this al
present mysterious subject.
The barn belongs to the Prescott es-
tate, but is owned virtually by Judge
Poland who is well insured. The loss
of carriages, ETC., comes upon Jerry
Drew, who was not insured. Mr.. Drew
was away from home at the time. The
fire started in good place to make
serious work. The wind was fresh from
the south, and the buildings of Solomon
Humphrey, j. HI. Paddock and Jerry
Drew, were covered with burning Gin
ders. But it was astonishing how
quickly the fire was quenched after the
firemen laid their hose. They stopped
the fire right where it was.

MIR. and Mrs. Hans X. Anderson of
this place observed their 25th marriage
anniversary on Monday of this week.
The Lord hath dealt kindly with this
family, and although this anniversary
came to them while far away from their
native Denmark, it found them pleas
anny situated in the country of theil
adoption, with their eight children
four boys and four girls-all preserved
to them, and all taking good positions
in school and society. This country
would be improved by more such ''for-
eigners" as the Andersons. Long may
they live to enjoy the fruits of their in
dustry and sterling integrity.

Waterford.
Frank Brown, a son-in-law of the
late N. w. Millen, has bought the Millen
farm. Mr.. Brown came to live with
the old folks year ago last spring with
the understanding that he was to have
the home farm and take care of the old
folks. There were no writings made at
the time. This fall they were all ready
to make the writings when Mr.. Millen
was suddenly taken sick and died.
There was one other heir, and they set
tied the matter by referring the case to
three aIbitrators, their decision to be
final. Mr.. Brown pays the other heir a
certain sum stated by the arbitrators.
That is very good and short way of
settling estates.
Hon. +. Z. Carpenter sent some of
his mineral to Boston to have it assayed.
Mr.. c. got letter from the assayer
saying he wanted him to come to Bos-
ton. Mr.. c. went down last week.
When he gets home we shall know more
about it. We conclude they are find
ing a good show.

Abner Smith came near burning up
last week. He went to the barn with a
lantern which upset, setting the hay on
fire, and it was only by the most siren

and not until he had taken off his coat
and used it as an extinguisher did he
accomplish it.

Our Contributors.

We consider the CaledOnian extreme
ly fortunate in its contributions from
abroad us well us from our own coun-
try. Mr.. Fuller's letters are full of in
formation, written in an easy and almost
conversational style, and are read with
pleasure and profit by very many. The
letters from "Athenian' and Granger
are written by well-known Boston
journalist, who sees everything be Wis
Its, and describes quite infinitely and in
an Interesting manner. The only criti-
cism one can make of Mr.. Galbraith's
California letters is that there is too
great an interval between them.

Mr.. VIM. Adams of Passumpsic, bid
off the Peabody house at the head OF

While the minister was away Tues
day evening the front door quietly open
ed, and somewhat noted European
tramp boldly walked in and demanded
hospitality. There seemed to be nc
need of his living such life, for he was
gorgeously dressed, not omiting the CAV
turban peculiar to his race and his
body was like Pharoah's first dream.
He must have Picked about to good
purpose to have attained such condi-
ton at his time of life. However he
was comfortably quartered, but in the
morning persistent attempt to evade
the tramp-law, proved fatal. The OBJ
sequies are announced for Thursday at

An Old Resident Gone.

MI. Levi Fuller died at his home in
this place, Nov. 90, aged IS years. Mr.
Fuller was one of the oldest inhabitants
of our town, having lived here con-
tinuously for about GA years. He was
one of the sixteen children born to
Abraham and Rachel Fuller of MonsOn,
Mass, fourteen of whom lived to grow
up to manhood and: wOmanhood. Ear
ly in this century Huxham Paddock
married one of the daughters and
brought her to his home in this place.
Soon after, or about 1916, Mrs. Pad
docks brothers, Grafton and Levi, fol-
lowed her to this town, and afterwards
her sister, Mrs. Freeman Hallett, and
her brothers William and Joseph c.,
all came here. About 1918, Levi and
his future brother-in-law, Henry Little,
now of Michigan, went to W ork for Mr.
Thaddeus Fairbanks, in his carriage
shop. Mr.. Fuller continued to work in
the employ of the Fairbankses from
that time for about forty years. Some
ten years ago Mr.. Fuller shut himself
into the house under the impression
that he was soon to die and from that
time until the past summer he has KEEP
his room, and his bed most of the time
This past season he has gone out some
what among the neighbors, though his
mind has been affected. He leaves q
daughter, Mrs. Thomas Hall, who has
tenderly ministered to him all these
years.

those who heard it, in that the amount
achieved by these children was so
