much more successful in gaining the
necessities. And, moreover, if the two
places work together in this matter

The old building erected some
twenty-five years ago, more or less, on
the banks of the Nemadji river and
used for a time as a brewery, was
consumed by fire last Thursday. We

loss was not very serious. As it has
not been occupied for years, it was
probably set on fire by some one.
