A large number of our farmers will
finish their haying this week. The
weather has been such that the hay
crop is being secured in excellent con
dition. The quality was never better,
and there is an average yield.
As hurry Dole was driving his cows
across the railroad at his crossing about
a mile below this village last Monday
night, an extra engine came along
going east, and ran into them, injuring
two of them, and one had to be killed
Mr.. Chas. Ingalls, started for Boston
last Saturday, for medical treatment
He has been troubled for several weeks
with inflammation in the eyes, and ii
is feared that he may lose one OF
them.
The contract for building the exten-
sion to the depot in this place, has been
let to VIM. NJ. Dole, who will com
mence next week. The new building
will be 25x35 feet.
A young fellow by the name of EnOch
Smith, who has been at work for Asa
Randall, had the misfortune to break
his arm one day last week. Itappears
that he was driving from the field to
the barn with load of hay, and the
horse in coming from the field into the
road got the advantage of him and
tipped him of as he was making the
turn, one wheel passing over his arm.

ting manner. Judge Poland thanked
the people for this expression of good
will, and alluding to his past service
said he could not expect to do better
than he did then. He was glad to
have the verdict against him eight
years ago set aside, and closed by re
ferring to Gen. Grout as his personal
friend. and to whom he wished only
good. The citizens were then invited
into the parlors for lemonade and
hand shaking. After this the band
gave a few more selections and the
crowd dispersed. The upper piazza of
the hotel was illuminated with Chinese
lanterns, and quite a large number of
our citizens attended the exercises.

Permit me to add that the nominal

view of the situation, and get some
one who will as well carry the other
end of the yoke.

BUILDINGS BURNED.

BUILDINGS BURNED.
From the Boston Journal
NEW YORK, July, 81. What proved
to he Il disastrous fire started at about
IL o'clock this morning in Hecker's
flour mandatory on the corner of
Cherry and Pike streets. NOtwith-
standing the prompt response of the
fire department, the flames spread with
such rapidity that the immense build
ing was soon mass of flame that rose
to Il distance of some 100 feet above
the roof, and could be seen for miles
around. The heat of the cOnflagation
was so intense that the people dwell
ling in the tenement houses across the
street were obliged to fly for their
lives, leaving all their household effects
behind them. The unfortunate occu-
pants deserted their houses none too
soon, for the flames shot with the fury
of cyclone to the opposite side of
Cherry street, and in less time than il
takes to write, the contiagration had
wrapped at least fifteen houses in
flames, extending from I54 up to Pike
street, and continuing for several
houses beyond that thoroughfare.
While the flames were burning with
terrific fury at the flour mill the walls
fell in, injuring two iiremen. The
area covered by the flames extends
from the corner of Cherry and Pike
streets, about One-quarter of a block
on the right baud side and half "A block
on the left hand side, toward Market
street, and includes, besides Hecker's
