Residents of this village who happened
to he awake between and o'clock yes
terday morning found the sky lighted
up by large fire to the westward. 1t
proved to be the house on the farm of
Mr.. Frank James, mile and half west
of here, in Weybridge. The origin of
the fire is something of a mystery. The
house had been vacant for six weeks, but
on Wednesday IA fire was built in the
stove to dry out the rooms. The stove
and all apparent possible sources of fire
were carefully examined at O'Clock
Wednesday night, and there wasn't a
particle of fire in the stove or anywhere
else then. The neighboIs discovered the
flames about II 80 yesterday morning
Nothing could be done to stay them, and
the structure burned to the ground. 1t
was a substantial building, erected seven
years ago at a cost of between $500 and
$4,000 1t was insured for $2500 Mr..
James has managed butter factory at
Charlotte for two years past, and last
summer moved most of his furniture
there and went to housekeeping, but a
considerable amount remained in the
house. There was $3.50 insurance on the
furniture.

THE CHURCHES.

No services were held at the Congrega-
tonal church on Sunday last, owing to
the illness of the pastor.
Interesting sermons are being preached
every evening at the Baptist church by
the pastor, Rev. Mr.. A. A. Cambridge.
The annual meeting of the girls socie-
ty of st. Stephens parish will be held at

furniture for the pulpit The bible was
presented by Caroline (Reynolds) Hin
man, wife of Judge E. S. Hinman. and
the mother of Mrs. Dea. Wilder. The
new pipe organ, costing Sll00, was
placed in the church scarce four weeks
since. Revival meetings have been held
in the church each afternoon and even
ing of the past two weeks, and the fire
is supposed to have caught from the
furnace. 1t was sad accident of fate,
and no one is censured in the least.
The church was insured for $5,250 and
organ for $1,000. An informal mass
meeting was held on Monday afternoon
at the town hall to take action in the
matter of rebuilding suitable edifice.
The citizens rallied in large numbers on
the night of the fire, and performed
heroic service in preventing the destruc-
ton of Roscoe's store, Partch's Hotel,
the town hall and the residence of G. F.
Washburn, which were in close prox-
unity, and the preservation of which
seems miraculous. Rev. w. B. Hague
was early on the ground and was the
first to ascend a ladder to extinguish
the flames from shed in the rear OF
the church. A. p. Roscoe, the town
clerk and poormaster, was present on
his crutches to save the town records
some of which are more ancient than the
Declaration of Independence and in the
handwriting of that noted tory, Jus.
tus Sherwood. c, f. Waite showed
great presence of mind in removing q
quantity of powder from the store
There seems to be a general sentiment
among all the people to speedily erect
another house of worship which will
be a credit to the society, and which
will be looked upon, admired and re-
vered by future generations.

The Army and Navy Journal, speaking
of those who are likely to be make assis-
tant secretary of war, says: "Mr. Par
fridge, who as private secretary to Mr..
Proctor is showing remarkable ability
as an executive officer, relieving the sec
retary, as he does, from great amount
of work that would in other departments
fall upon the shoulders of assistant sec
retares, is regarded by many as Il strong
possibility" Mr.. Partridge is an East
Middlebury boy, fitted for college at the
Graded school in this village and was a
year in college here, finally graduating,
however, at Amherst. Many friends in
town would be glad to see him obtain the
place.

"The bell in the Congregational church,

citizens of Concord that the enemy were

battle of Concord, April Is, l775. After
the war Revere engaged in casting bells

his better half a daughter of Vermont.
BY her charming manner and kindly
ways Mrs. Alger won warm place, not
only in the hearts of the ladies of the
Women's Relief corps, but also in those
of the members of the Vermont depart
