A EOTEL ON FIRE.
Narrow Escape of the Guests-Ihe
Loss Covered by Insurance.

A Hanover IN. H. telegram says: This
old college town narrowly escaped serious
calamity early this morDing. About 1880
o'clock fire was discovered IN a stable sdioin-
ing the large building known "a South Hall,
which, since the fire in January OF last year,
has been used as 3 hotel This building was
OF wood. rs are all the buildings on the west
side OF Main street. The hotel was soon in
flames. and the guests, hurredly awakened,
were forced 10 fly clad only I'm their night
dresses. The opening CT the annual course OF
lectures in the Dartmouth Medical College,
which occurred On "wednesday, had brought
TO the hotel an unusually large number OF
guests for this season. As the fire swept
through the building, which was a veritabe

with their lives. Only the squeaing OF the
pigs roasting In the burning barn saved the

the lives Of two Dartmouth graduaies-Louis

There seems to be little doubt that the fire
was OF ipccodaty origin, and the selectmen

with the friction Of the tides continually

now it is pretty certain from the calcu-

the earth loses about an hour in 1G,COC,

also, the hurryinS up of the comets a

Ladies who have sealskin or other fur
garments which they expect to have re-
paired or remOdeled for next season should
communicate at once with A. Z. Burkhardt
& Co, of Cincinnati, D. This famous es-
tablishment has secured from the center of
fashiOn-Paris--the most noted designer of
original styles in ladies' outer garments,
and have now ready their exclusive models
for next seasons fashions in furs. They
have also enlarged and reOrganized their
factories, so that they are already fully
prepared for executing orders. They can
now repair and remodel sealskin garments
at much less cost than during the fall and
winter, and will then give free guaranteed
storage to remodeled garments during the
summer months. As it is injurious to both
the durability and color of sealskins to wear
them in the April sunshine, ladies should
at once make arrangements for having
them stored, and. by having them remOd-
eled now, they can also secure at less cost
the new shapes A. L. Burkhardt & Co. will
offer next winter.
