HIeH POINT, N. O., November 27.--
The morning was frosty, bright aud
clear. Towards noon the day was
warm and right for good work. The
derby was completed at noon. The
pointer stake was started in the after
noon. Jean Val Jean and Paxtaug
were the first brace down, and they
were to compete for first place aud
prize. Jean was very sore from the
effects of the long, severe heat
of yesterday afternoon. Paxtang
ranged q little the better in
the opening, but in the woods they
ranged nearly equal. Jean Val Jean
was very muDh better in style. Pax
tong made four points and Jean Val
Jean made three. Paxtang won. A
couple of extra heats were run to Sc
lect dog to run for second Place and
prize with Jean Val Jean. Consola-
ton was selected. Consolation made
four points to Jean Val Jeans three.
The heat was a short one. Console
ton won. The judges then considered
Jean Val Jean the winner of third
without any further running. This
finished the derby. After lunch, five
braces of pointers were run in the
first series OF the all age pointer stake.

The casco Street school House.

Some charges have been brought against
the Casco street school house to the effect
that it was unhealthy and productive of
diphtheria. By order of the Board of Health
the health officer, Mr. Sayward, was ordered
to visit the school-house and see, if in his
Judgment there was any ground for the
charges. Mr.. Sayward visited the school
house on Tuesday. He reports that he
found the school-yard perfectly clean, but
damp, as it lies in such a position that the
sun cannot shine on it. Furthermore we
have had very damp, wet weather for week
past. He found the cellar cemented, sweet
and clean; all the sinks and closets properly
drained and trapped; the drain. receives the
water from the roof which scours it well. He
reports that all the pipes pass through prop
er traps into the sewer. The only SUCCESS
ton he could make was that at the southerly
corner of the cellar, a straight ventilator be
carried up to the roof from the point where
the pipes went to pass into the sewer,
which would carry up any foul airs, if there
should be any. He considers the school
house in first-rate condition
Mr.. Sayward says that not single case of
diphtheria can:be traced to this school-house
There have been only three in that locality
and every one of these can be traced to pub
lie funerals and inattention to the laws Of
isolation in cases of infectious diseases.

story of the shoe mandatory of Shaw,
Cooling q Co., Nos. 154 to 164 Middle street.
The fire was discovered by bank watch
man, Joseph ID. Decelle. The building is
four story brick structure, the lower half
owned by John L. Donnell, being occupied
by Shaw, Cooling & Co.. and the other part
owned by w. f. and Seth Milliken, being oc-
cupied by Deering, Milliken & Co., whole

Messrs. Shaw, Cooling & Co., had on the
first floor their offices and their salesrooms

tanned large amount of finished goods in
cases. The stock in this story was saved
without serious damage. In the second
story was the finishing room in which was
large amount of uncompleted work The
greater part of this was got out of the build
ing although in damaged condition. The
third and fourth stories contained the work
rooms where 200 men and girls were em-
ployed. 1t was in the room at the rear end
of the third story that the fire originated,
and from here burned up through the floor
ABOVE in places.
The work of fighting the flames was a hard
task and second alarm was sent in about
half an hour after the first The distance
from the ground to the floor in which the
flames were raging, added to the difficulties
OF the men but at one time five streams
were playing into the building and shortly
after the arrival of the reserve engines. the
fire was under control

against fire. Every day when work was
completed, the foremen on the several floors
carefully inspected their departments. All

the value of the stock in hispart of the build
ing was about 100000. Twelve thousand

and unfinished goods saved can only be APP
proximately estimated. but is probable that
the total loss will exceed $4,000 Shaw,

son Block on Middle street. The firm is in
sured for $4,000 on stock, machinery, etc.,
