THE SIEGE OF sEsAsToPoL.
An interesting Lecture Delivered by
Rev. s. D. Paine.

A large and well-pleased audience filed
the auditorium at Pine street church last
night to listen to the lecture on the "Inyas-
ion of the Crimea and the siege Of Sebasto-
pol" by the Rev. Mr.. Paine, pastor Of the
church. The speaker held the undivided at
tention Of the audience which manifested its
pleasure in frequent bursts Of applause.
The speaker dwelt to considerable length
in the beginning, ON the causes OF the war
which broke the peace which had for many
years prevailed ON the continent Of Europe,
and Of the landing of the 10000 soldiers Of
the allied armies north Of Sebastopol on the
peninsular of Crimea. The allied armies
made great mistake by not seizing the 18TH
mus and thus cutting off the.supplies Of the
enemy from Sebastepol. "When the allied
armies landed on the Crimea there were no
indications Of the Russian army, nor was II
seen until the river Alma was reached. Here
occurred battle In which the Russian forces
were defeated. The enemy retreated and
the allied army blundered again In not fol-
lowing the retreating forces and preventing
them from entering the city of Sabastopol.
They had cavalry enough to do this, but for
some reason 1t was not done.
The battle Of Inkorman, the great storm
which visited the Black Sea, destroying the
ships laden with clothing, medical stores
and money for the English troop, the charge
Of the light brigade. and the landing on the
Crimea Of Florence Nightingale with her lit
tie band Of followers, and the work which
they did in the hospital were spoken Of In an
eloquent manner.
The siege Of Sabastopol, the storming of
the Great Redan and Malakoif, the capture
Of Sebastopol and the destruction Of the
pleasing way.
Mr.. Paine closed with an account Of the
great Joy which the soldiers felt when they
heard that peace had been declared and
were going home, description Of the home
ward voyage, the reception given by the
Queen on their arrival in England, and final
ly of his own experience as solder in the
Grand Army of the Republic.

ST. LOUIS, April 4.-Telegrams dated
Celaya, Mexico, at 8 p M, yesterday, state

was crowded with spectators of the great
national sport, when fire suddenly broke
out on the plaza. Panic at once seized upon
the vast assemblage and frightful scenes
were the result
The plaza was constructed of wooden
masts, reed and the like, and it was due to
this fact that the majority of the people es-
capped without injury. being able to force an
opening which permitted an exit at different
points. But many women and children
jumped from the top, and over 100 of them
were seriously wounded. Eighteen lives
were lost. Sixty-eight persons were very
badly burned, and though they still live at
least ten Of them will die.
The fire was incendiary. In Celaya jail
were a number of prisoners. army deserters,
ETC., who had obtained permission from the
authorities to attend the bull fight. They
were accompanied by guard Of soldiers to
prevent their escape, tbut one of the desert
ers struck match and lighted one of the dry
mats and in an instant the side of the ring
was ablaze. In the confusion and excite
ment the prisoners escaped.

WASHINGTON. April 3.-The following

'The International Council of Women, in

and delegates from England, France, Nor

as literally provided for one sex as for the
other; and the representatives OF organized
womanhood in this council will steadily de-
mand that in all ayocations in which both
men and women engage equal wages shall

enlightened society should demand the only
adequate expression of the high civilization

tain, an identical standard of personal puri-
to and morality for men and women"

FIRE AT WEST BUXTON.
eurning Of the WooIen mill Operated
by John Bergman.
Especial to the Press.l

Especial to the PressJ
WEST BUXTON, April AT about five
minutes past twelve o'clock this morning,
fire was discovered in the furnace room of
the West Buxton Woolen Mill. The mill is
not run by night. and there was no one about
the mill but a watchman, who was in the
weave room. The flames fed very rapidly,
and the watchman was caught by the smoke
and only escaped through window. There
is no fire department in the place, and the
fire spread in the mill so fast that the hose
for the two mill hydrants could not be put
into use The mill is right in the thickest
populated partof the village, but bagging
was put on adjoining roofs and kept wet by
citizens with buckets. A wooden stock
house between the mill and an apOthecary
stone occupied by Walter Clark and owned
by A. X. Paris Lord, was pulled down, pre-
venting the spread of the fire in this direc-
tion. Nothing was saved from the mill but
one case of goods. From the stock house,
however, everything was saved. amounting
in value to about $500 or $500. The machin-
cry of the mill, as well as the building, which
was Of wood, was entirely destroyed. In the
mill was also about four or five thousand
dollars worth of stock in process of manu-
facture. This was also all destroyed. The
mill and machinery was owned by the heirs
of the late J. w. Hall of Boston who died
last winter. Mr.. Hall valued the building
and machinery at $4,000. 1t is not thought
that there was any insurance at all on the
plant. Mr.. John Bergman has leased and
operated the mill since 1880. His loss is on
his stock, on which he had $1,000 insurance
placed with Warren Sparrow & Co., in the
Boston Underwriters. The mill was run
ming on cassimeres which were sold by Deer
ing, Milliken & Co., of New York. 1t was
turning out about sixteen thousand yards
month. Twenty-seven hands were employ
ed, of whom eiget or nine were women.
This mill was one of the oldest woolen
mills in the State, having been built in 1874
or '45 by local company, Ct Whom Oliver
movers. From 1857 to 1865 it was managed
by the Buxton Manufacturing Company,
of which, j. W. Hall was the head, and did
large business, having many army contracts.
The same company operated at Buxton an
other mill also, which was burned in 1865
in the great fire which swept away half the
valuation of Buxton village. After that the
company were never very successful, and
failed in 1866. Hall then leased the remain
ing mill to Hirst g. Gray, who operated it
about year and half, and failed. Then
Hall & Bergman ran it from 1872 to 1877,
when it failed again. Since 1880 Mr.. Berry
man has run it successfully by himself. Mr..
Bergman came to Buxton as overseer in
1855, and has been there ever since. Mr.. Berry
mans health is not very good. and as he
does not expect to continue the business, it
is doubtful if the mill is built up again.
There is another wooden mill just across
the river on the Hollis side, owned by A.
the Saco River Woolen Company They are
running full time on ladies' dress goods, etc
