BIG FIRE At HYDE PARK
The american House in fishes
LOSS $4,000 TO $4,000 ;
INSURANCE ABOUT $4,000.
Great Aid from the Lorrisvil1e
Fire Department.

At about halfpast eight this We'd
nesday) morning fire was discovered
in the upper part of the American
| House An alarm was Immediately
given, but the fire was under such
Roadway that it was impossible to
extinguish it. Willing hands took
hold, and a large amount of the fur
niture was carried out-nearly all of
that on the first and second floors be-
ing saved. Some was taken from the
third floor, but so severe were the
flames but little was got out.
Word was at once telephoned to
Morrisville and in short time large
delegation arrived, bringing the hose
carriage and chemical engine. The
boys went 20 work at once, and did
excellent service A number of them
poured water on the bank building
and Chemical Engine kept up steady
stream on it, which prevented further
spread of the flames. The Morrisville
fire department did heroic work and
to them is much credit due for stop
ping spread of the fire.
The building burned rapidly and in
about two hours the entire hotel and
sheds were in ashes. Fortunately
the wind was in a south-westerly di-
rection, which carried the flames away
from a large group of frame buildings.
The fire engines from Morrisville and
Wolcott arrived on the express train,
but the fire being under control only
one of them was used.
As to how the fire started no one
knows. Dr. Randall thinks it broke
out in room No. 43-one of the rooms
in the attic; Others think it caughtin
the attic over the ball room, but the
doctor says that part of the building
was locked and inaccessible to any
body.
The hotel, barns and contents were
| llSuTeu lOE PI.OOO, tll6 UdlHS NClC
saved and a part of the furniture,
which of course reduces the insurance
somewhat The Messrs. Randalls
invested $4,000 in the buildings ten
years ago and had added considerable
in the way of furniture and repairs.
The Spiritualists held a dance at
the hotel last night, and there were a
number of transients in the house,
nearly every room being occupied.
Already talk is current concerning
a new building. The proprietors say
a new one shall be erected on the old
site and the village and townspeople
say the prosperity of the place de-
mands new hotel at once. So mote

In our report of the Masonic Dis

present on the occasion referred to
and greatly aided in making the Dis

error crept into the report and that
was in calling the Master of our home

the able Master, but for fear some OF

O'Clock. He at once secured police
man Andrew Smith and a vigorous
search was made, the party going as
far as Wolcott. The man could not
be found, but early Monday morning
Hardy learned that stranger had
slept in Edison Preston's barn at
Green River the Saturday night be-
lore and he at once started after him.
He arrived at Green River at 10
O'Clock and enquired of Preston re-
garding the stranger and was told
that he was in the house. Just then
the fellow saw Dan. and made a dash
to escape, rushing through the parlor
and secreted himself in a small closet
where the officer caught him. He was
brought to MorrisviIle and Sheriff
Kelley notified The prisoners name
is Hayes, belongs at Hartland and
is wanted for stealing a horse and
sleigh from a Mr. johnson of St.

FARM TOR SALE !

Owing to the advancing years of
my father, | have purchased the
farm owned by him for many years
past, near Hyde Park village. Hav.
inc neither time nor ability to car
ry it on properly, l will sell it at
much less than its value.
To those who are acquainted
with the place no commentator
is necessary. For the benefit of
those who are not, say it is one of
the best farms on the Lamoille
River. 1t has a meadow nearly or
quite one mile in length, and
nearly as level as floor. 1t was
in fair state of cultivation when
purchased by my father, and du-
ring the many years that he has
owned it he has been constantly
improving it, until it is to-day one
of the most fertile farms on the
Lamoille River. The dwelling is
a good two-story house, in an eX.
cellent state of repair and pleas
antly located, and the barns are
fair. 1t would cost $500 at least
to build the buildings to-day.
The larger part of the farm is
in Morristown, where taxes are
comparatively low. The balance
lies contiguous to Hyde Park vii
lage, where there is an academy,
court house, two banks, printing
office, steam mill, hide house, and
sundry stores, railroad depot, etc.,
all of which are within d to Il
mile of the farm. The place is
now offered for $4,000. 1t was
sold a few years since for $4,000.
1t contains 200 or 2I5 acres, but
if desired will reserve a part of it.
Terms of payment will be made
easy to any one who can either
pay or secure $1,000.

distinctness there is a popular no
ton that short-sighted eyes are the
strongest. This is a dangerous
delusion. The essence of the de-
feet is a bullying backward of the
outer coat of the eye which yields
more readily as it becomes stretch
ed and thin and any excessive
strain of the eye, anything that
causes an increased flow of blood
to the eyeball, adds to the pres
sure upon this weakened MEM
brane and forces it further back.
When the distention is rapid and
excessive, the retina sometimes
becomes detached and there is an
end to sight. In short, in a large
proportion of cases short sight is
a serious disease and requires the
most skillful and careful treat
ment. The fitting of glasses for
short sight requires great care,
for Oft times those furnishing
temporary relief will produce a
vast amount of harm to the eyes.
In many cases the plan of trying"
the various glasses on the dealers
counter, or from a peddler's box,
is about as rational and safe as it
would be in the case of sickness to
try the contents of the various bot
ties on the druggists shelf without
a prescription. DIR. Martin gives
