The Progress Of a Century.


A copy of the "Ulster County Ga
zettee," published at Kingston, N.
Y, Saturday, January 4th, 1900, con-
tanning an account of the action Of
Congress and of President John
Adams upon receiving news Of the
death of George Washington at Mt.
Vernon, has been handed us by a
valued subscriber.
This little paper of sixteen columns
displays in it's sombre appearance,
and expresses editorially, the deep
sorrow felt by the country at large at
that time, for the departure of the
great and good Washington. 1t also
gives a short account of the obsequies
at Mt. Vernon where Washington
was buried. There is also q consider
able amount of European war news
gathered from papers dated October
20th, which had been received by the
Factor ~ from Falmouth.
These papers came in the regular
course Of the mail and the time con
sumed in their transmission seems tC
have extended from October 20th tc
December 23, a period uf two months
The progress of science has greatly
changed the systems of the past, bu
in no way can this be seen to greater
advantage than in the difference be
tween the time necessary for th'
transmission of news from one Cont
nent to another. At that time sail
ing ships brought the mails, ant

urgent and hasty messages had to b.

A Fourth of July Blaze.

The stable and carriage house Of
John R. Dawson on Lake street were
destroyed by fire on Saturday even
ing at 10 o'clock. When the blaze was
first discovered by some colored peo-
pie who were passing, it had gained
considerable headway and the inter-
ior of the building was mass of
flames and by the time the news
could be taken to the electric light
station and the alarm sounded the
entire structure was ablaze. The
Volunteer Hose Company were on the
scene in a very few minutes and had
two streams turned on the building.
In five minutes after the hose COM
pany got to work the fire was COM
pletely under control
Besides one and half tons of hay
in the loft, one drop-foot carriage, four
sets of single harness, one set Of dou-
BILE harness, six or eight lap robes
and several forks, shovels, etc, were
consumed and a sleigh in an adjoining
shed, was badly damaged by the heat.
Mr.. Samuel Wrightson was the first
to go inside the building after the fire
was discovered. He cut the halter OF
the horse and released it. He was none
too soon, for some of the contents OF
the loft fell few seconds later. -Four
carriages and dog cart were also re.
moved from the building. One OF
them was taken out by Willie Holten,
13-year-old lad who happened to he
near. He took off his coat and with
| it over his head rushed into the smoke
and pulled one of the carriages out in
to the street. The entire loss will
amount to about $500, on which there
was an insurance of 1926.
Mr.. Dawson expects to rebuild iI
about two weeks and the new build
ing will be much larger and more
commodious than the old one.
The origin OF the fire is a mystery
butit is generally supposed that it wal
caused by fireworks, which were being
put off in the vicinity.
Direct Tax Commissioner, ]. Frank
Wilds, now has complete List O
all those who paid the direct tax, and
