Eirei Eireii

Our people were startled by the cry of fire
last Friday morning about nine o'clock. The
fire proved to be III the dwelling house occu-
pied by L.. G. Nash, near the Catholic
Church, owned by Mrs. Barrett. The engine
was brought out but was not needed, the flames
being extinguished without its help. The
fire originated from defective flue, and had
got well started III the attic before il was
discovered, and considerable damage was
done. The household goods were all remov-
ed aud the building thoroughly wet down.
Loss fully covered by insurance.
On Sunday morning last, about 230
o'clock the citizens of our quiet village were
aroused from their peaceful slumbers by the
dreaded cry of fire and the ringing of FIRE
bells. This time the scene of the conflagra-
ton was the brick store building owned by
George w. Longwell adjacent to the bank
building. and occupied by Z. II. IL j. j.
Carroll, boot and shoe dealers. In an ex-
ceedingly short space of time, considering
that the fire occurred at the hour it did. the
fire company had the steamer out and were
throwing two heavy streams of water into
the building, one in front and one in rear. In
few minutes the store was completely
flooded, the water being four inches deep on
the floor and pouring out of the doors in
torrents. Owing to the fact that the doors
were kept closed until the firemen commen-
ced work, the flames were speedily extin
guished. but not until the whole inside of
the room was badly burned. The fire broke
through the floor above in but one place,
and bat little damage was done in the upper
rooms, and that more by water and smoke
than otherwise. Nothing was injured in ad-
joining buildings and nothing removed from
them. The fine stock of boots and shoes
carried by the Messrs. Carroll was badly
dsmaged but not wholly destroyed and the
salvage will be very considerable. The bull
ding was also materially injured, the ceiling
overhead being charred the full length of the
store, the plastering burned and washed oil
and the counters and shelving badly burned.
Both the store and stock were fully insured,
the former for $1,000; $1,000 in the Fire
Association of Philadelphia. Miss Mau,ie
Rowland, agent, and $500 in the London.
Liverpool & Globe, Frank Parks agent.
There was $500 insurance on the stock;
$4,000 in the L., l.. q G.. and $1,000 in the
Milwaukee Mechanics, II. o. Beebe, agent.
The origin of the fire is obscure. 1t began
in the back end of the room, on the west
side of the store, few feet from the stove.
and was first discovered by Mrs. y. b.
Emery who had dressmaking establishment
and living rooms in the back part of the
upper story She and Mr.. Emery at once
gave the alarm, and succeeded in removing
their most valuable goods. Those that were
not removed we're not badly injured. The
fire might easily have proved very disas-
trous one, and II is very fortunate that it
was no worse. These two fires coming so
closely together emphasize anew the old
adaQe that misfortunes especially fires. never
come singly. Let as hope that they will not
be speedily followed by the traditional third
coniagration.

MOVING TO INTRODUCE THE NEW TIMEsY,

MOVING TO INTRODUCE THE NEW TIMEsYsrEM
INTO CANADA.
The twenty-four o'clock system of time IN
making considerable progress in Canada. The
Canadian institute of Toronto, and, it is under
stood several associations tor the promotion of
different branches of science in the eastern
part OF the Dominion. observe this method in
marking the progress Of time. Members of the
canadian institute were notified to attend the
last meeting of that body at 20 O'Clock. This
system, commeneins the da E at aaf O'CLOCK o'clock
$ o'clock In the evening. This system. while II
mas mas the disadvantage OF being extremely con.
fusing at first, has MANY advantages over the
a. m. and p. m. system almost universally in
use at the present time. -
The "a o'clock system is peculiarly suitable
LOT railways IN the time tables OF which fire..
quently arises much confusion, regarding the
corresponding hours before and after noon Ac-
attributed to the difficulty in clearly ind icatinr
on time tables the running time of railway
trains.
Some railways have adopted the plan of print.
ing the figures on the time tables relating to
afternoon and morning, In black and White
faced figures respectively: In some instances

cate before and ternoon trains on account of
the s impress not being A. in as was Intended.
superiority of the "a o'clock time system for
railroads, and 1t is understood ARRANGEMENTS
are being made to introduce 1t On the main and
Dranch line OF the Canadian Pacific railway at
an early date.
Mr.. Sanford Fleming, formerly chief engi-
heer OF the dominion government, and the
long and earnestly for the general introduction
OF this new system of time. He was one of the
read before the Canadian Institute many wears
ago, and now he is doing much to promote and
introduce the "a O'Clock time system for rail-
way and other services, Mr.. Fleming is of
the opinion that no sooner has this system of
time been given tair trial by some line of rail-
way than its advantages will become SO very
apparent to the most casual observer that all
the railways in the world will soon adopt it.
Where the run Of passenger trains extends for
several thousand miles, necessitatins journey

oning the number of days to be occupied by the
etc. neutrality-suspicious. great difficulty some.

In this respect. The advantage of the new time
