100000 Fire.

Lynn. Mass, the city Of shoes, was
on Tuesday visited by the greatest
fire in it's history, and with two ex.
ceptions the confagstion is the most
disastrous which ever visited New
England.
The exceptions are the great Bos
ton fire of 1872, which destroyed be-
tween $500, 900, 900 and $500, 900 900
worth of property and the Portland
fire Of 366, which caused a loss oil
between sic, 900, 900 and 1000, OOO
Tuesdays fire started at ll.55 a.
M, ragged over eight hours, devastat.
ed a square mile of the business sec.
ton of the city, and caused loss
estimated at $lO.O0O,OOO. In fact. the
greater part of Ward Four is wiped
out as regards the important shoe
manufacturing blocks and prominent
places of business.

which can be called out at once when
robbery or other crime has been
committed, and by rapid and con
centrated movement, aid in recover
ing the property aud bringing the
guilty parties to justice. 1t is the
interest ofthis neighborhood to keep
the Association strong. If the dep
relations on property by thieves or
or other outrages against society are
rare in this section, the organization
of the law abiding and law unfolding
people of the community by forming
formidable association to operate
against outlaws, has much to do with
purgiag society Of such pests. BY
being always ready to repel such
entertainments is the surest way to
reduce them to the minimum. Pre-
vention is always preferable TO cure.
That depredations of the kind which
this Association is maintained to re-
sist, have become extremely rare
within the territory it covers is one
of the strongest reasons for keeping
it up to the highest standard of eff
liciency and fullest membership.

An Unique Feature of the Penn
sylvania Limited.

The Pennsylvania Limited, per-
forming daily service between New
York and Chicago, needed but one
feature to complete the perfection OF
its appointment. The men had their
porter and barber, and now the
ladies have the maid and hairdresser.
The introduction of the maids is as
novel as it is unique feature. 1t
exists on no other regular train in
the world, and the ladies who travel
will appreciate it heartily. The
maids are colored women, and there
is one employed ON each train. They
arc to assist the ladies in maxine
their toilets, to dress their hair. ana
serve as handmade to them in
the fullest sense of the term. They
will have an eye to the children. and
have a care for invalids and ladies
who may travel without a male
escort. The convenience and com
fort Of having an attendant of ones
own sex will be cordially appreciate
ed by timid women and those who
are inexperienced in travel. The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
and the Pullman Palace Car Com.
pany deserve great credit for their
persistent efforts to enhance the
comfort and pleasure of their pat
roDs.

Words Of Encouragement.

We venture to make public some
extracts from a private letter of a
friend and reader of the MIDLAND
JOURNAL whose good opinion we
value very highly.
The farmers of Cecil county should by
this time acknowledge your paper as their
most representative organ in the county. l
Hust you will not stop in the course You are
pursuing until The scales are removed from
the eyes Of the old Bourbons.
Keep right along in The path you have
chosen. Advocate farmers to represent
farmers. Advocate business men to repre-.
sent the people Stick to the remopetiza-
ton ofsilvei; more circulation for the PEG.
pie IN the way af greenbacks if need be
equal protection for the farmer with the
manu- facurer, then perhaps if the Creator
ordains ii may be that the light of heaven
may drive prejudice out of the Uranium OF
old fossils and they may see their way clear
to SUI port representative men.
The MIDLAND JOURNAL is right when adj
vocatng the interest of farmers, but / feal
that help will come too late to save MANY
of us from bankruptcy.

classes are receiving more than war prices

which calls upon other guilds or

in managing his affairs. No one
ever heard of any other class calling
on farmer to occupy any place in
