Suffering In Consequence at MarbIehead-
One Dead and Several Injured.
MARBLEHED. Mass, Dec. 27.-There Is a
general feeling Of sadness among the people
on account OF the calamity which visited the
city. Much suffering Is expected among
those whose employment is at least tenn
porarily gone Photographers have been
busy taking views Of the ruins, and relic
hunters are numerous The town authori-
ties are resurveying lines and clearing away
debris. The local military company are
guarding exposed property. The fire engines
did not leave their work until O'Clock yes
terday afternoon
Mrs Sally Evans, who had been i'll for
some time, died from the shock aud excite
ment Of the fire and of being removed from
her home 10 a place Of safety. Town Clerk
FELTON, was badly burned about the head
j. Edward Blaney was injured about the
head and face.
The insurance is very widely distributed,
as companies did not care to take large
single risks on old wooden buildings such as
mostly composed the district burnel over.
a revised estimate places the total loss at
e6OO,OOO, with about s2l5, 900 insurance
A meeting of tho citizens was held last
night to consider the effects Of the fire. The
prevailing sentiment seemed 70 be that the
town should az once be rebuilt, and that
brick buildings should replace the burned
wooden ones. In case private capital proves
insufficient il is thought that the town should
render all possible pecuniary assistance.
Several contributions Of small sums were
received to aid needy sufferers. commit
tee of twenty-five will be selected to solicit
and receive contributions

Our holiday trade-it's over

We never sold as many
goods, never waited on our
crowds better or quicker, never
gave such satisfaction-yet we
are glad its over, weary people
demanded it.
What next?
Such a stock as this cannot
stand still, therefore, according
to our usual custom, we shall
take it." That isto say, every
piece of merchandise contained
in our building will be meas
ured or counted in the five days
yet remaining of this year.
This course enables us to see
exactly what we have and what
we must not keep.
Stock taking enables us m
derStand1xgLy to clear out
broken lines and numbers of
goods such as no other process
will.
Many hands make light
work, and we soon hope to
spread before you the results
Of our stock taking. Does it
pay YOU" is asked us, ITO ever
sell goods below cost?" A
change of stock is absolutely
demanded in every live store.
and we do business for profit,
yet good merchandising con
sist under certain conditions
in giving back profits in the
shape of reduced goods.
It's a mutual thing-a direcr
benefit to our stock, a direc
benefit to the buyer. We hope
to please you with what W.

There will be many attrac
