Fire Before the JOURNAL rea ched
all of Is readers last week our citizeus
had passed through the excitement of two
more fires. First the frame residence
formerly occupied by Mr.. f. K. MILLER,
but lately vacated by Mr.. j. j. PARKS
who removed to his farm. 1t was evident
ly the work of tramps or an inceudiary as
the building was not occupied. The
kitchen Was in flames when discovered by
Mr.. GEO. LAFARREE quarter to FIVE
o'clock on Saturday morning. The prompt
arrival OF our little engine aud the saving
OF the maiu building and surrounding
property left no doubt in the minds of any
in regard to lie efficiency OF our Little en-
glue and the department..
The second alarm WINS given shortly
after six o'clock OF the same day, caused
b y the bnrniug Of bed in Mr.. WIRES
Hot !, which had probably caught from
ligat'd cigar. Again the department was
promp ~ on haul to reudcr' aid had it
b been required of them
Four iucipient fires in one week Is great
sufficieucy for a place of this size. We
think we have discovered one thing more
/ esi les the new hose that is needed for the
efficiency of the Fire Depal tment. A hell
of sufficient size to be heard over town
! should be placed upon the engine house,
to be ruug by the first mau arriving
which should be accepted as the signal for
all to run Co the engine house iustend of
runaiug direct to the fire. The expense
would bc very light compared with the
damage thnG might be sustained through
the wan of sufficient force To get the ma-
chiues promptly otIe fire. Mauy engaged
in heir places Of business know nothing
OF the alarm until they hear the noise OF
the machines going past.

SCENE OF THE DISASTER.

The steamship State of Virginia, which
sa,led from this port for Belfast Ireland Thursday

ran ashore at Sable Island, off the coast OF Nova
Scotia and 1t is feared viii prove total
wreck Sable Island is 100 miles out at
and nearly 200 miles from Halifax boats crew from

or near Cape CausO, Wednesday last, bearing the
first news Of the disaster. 1t was not I'LL late yes
terday however, that teegraphio communion
