Another slight fire occurred at the wooden
mill of James q. Knowles yesterday. breaking
ont this time in the weave room. The alarm
was given by the blowing of the steam whistle
and the Good Will Hose Company with its
apparatus, were soon on the way there but
the fire was got under control by means Of
the private hose of the mill before its arrival.
The members of the Good Will are very much
incensed at their treatment by some Of the
employees at the null. it being asserted that
they were ordered out of the yard with their
carriage and hose, and told that their assist
ance was not needed, and the mill should
burn down before they should be allowed to
use their hose. On the other hand We hear
that the employers said the fire was ont, and
they did not see any use i'll putting more
water i'll the building. However, the Good
Will boys 9ay they will never respond to
another call from that quarter

recovery, and as it is, ho will probably soon
be well 80 far as the immediate wound is con-
cerned.
