 The fire spread to the adjoining lands of one Carley, thence to the lands of one O'Neill and ran down tothe westerly bank of the Nesersink river, which at that point is 90 feet wide.

The Erie road, one of the largest and best managed. systems in the country, owning continuous lines extending from New York to Chicago, somes of it's main branches terminating at Cincinnati, Dun kirk, Buffalo and Niagara Falls, is dis charging every employe of known intem- perate habits. People who patronize rail- roads know that this is the only safe thing for any company to do, and employers who thus put a premium on sobriety do more to put down intemperance than can be accomplished by all the prohibition politicians of the century.
