FIRE ON EXCHANGE STREET.
Ford q Rich, Printers, and Richard
son Brothers Suffer.

Last evening st 90 O'Clock as Officers
Norton and Sylvester were passing over
their heat trying the store doors to see if
they were locked. they saw thin tongue of
light and smelled smoke very perceptibly in
the four story building, Nos. 5 and Ex-
change street. occupied by Ford & Rich, the
printers, In the third and fourth stories, the
offices Of f. r. Fay and T. G. Harris in the
second story, and the stove store of Richard
son Brothers on the ground floor. They sent
boy to box 43 at once, who pulled in an
alarm.
When the firemen got into the building
they located the fire in the third story and
fonnd it had obtained quite a start in the
partitions between the third and fourth
stories, and even worked down to the second
story. By dint of lively work the fire was
confined to the building where 1t originated
and did not get into the buildings on either
side. or course the building was well wet
down. the Water finding its way into the eel
lar.
1t was 1853 o'clock when the "all out"
was pulled in. The building was owned by
the Preble heirs and was well insured with
Palmer & Anderson. The loss may range
from $500 to $500, as there had to be good
deal of cutting of flooring and partitions.
Ford & Rich could not name their loss but
said they had $4,000 insurance; $1,000 is with
w. d. Little & Co., $4,000 with Palmer & An.
derSon, and the other $1,000 with Prentiss
Loring. They thought the loss would be
more than the insurance. the most of it be-
Ing on the presses. sit is singularcir cum
stance, Said Mr.. Ford, shat the papers were
to be signed Tuesday (today) by which Mr..
Frank Z. Dow and myself were to become
the owners of the business"
The loss In the various offices is by water,
is slight and is covered by insurance. Mr..
Fay, special correspondent of the Boston
Globe, had his apartments in the building,
had just fitted them up and will suffer by
damage from water. He has $500 insur-
ance. The Richardson Brothers are now
sufferers for the second time, they having
been burned out not very long ago. They
have $4,000 with Morse & Guptill which will
cover their loss.
During the fire Mr.. q. w. Fessenden of
Truck Two was struck over the eye by fall
ing scuttle and badly cut.
The engines had a pretty hard pull to get
to the fire owing to the deep, sandy like,
mixed hail and snow that filled the streets.
The horses took ir very easy pulling the en-
gines back to the houses.

GOSPEL DOCTRINES.
Or. Dalton Before the Evangeicai
Association.

The question discussed at the evangelical
ministers meeting Mems Christian Associa-
ton Hall yesterday morning was do any
of the doctrines of the gospel AS they have
been generally currently preached require
restatement in our day." The topic was
opened by Rev. DIR. Dalton, and participated
in by large number of those present. The
main point of discussion was not
whether the real doctrines of the gospel
need restatement, but whether human ex-
pressions of them did. DR.. Dalton and most
of those present agreed that they did, ana IN
point of fact have been restated from age to
age The reason for this is that theological
systems, however scriptural, are modified by
the prevailing philosophy and change more
or less as the philosophy changes. The
philosophy or science of our age Is but the
sum of human knowledge Of that age. In
illustration. the doctrine of the resurrection
was cited as stated by st. Paul In LIST
Corinthians, 18th chapter. That grand
chapter Is the clearest and fullest statement
Of the Christian doctrine possible. A strict
adherence to it conflicts with none of our
scientific knowledge, and In this age Is more
than ever the ground for belief In future
life. Or take the question now more or less
discussed as to the age and authorship OF
different books of the Bible.
The decision does not effect or determine the
value of the books. 1t matters not whether
there were one or two Isaiahs, so long as
we have the glorious prophecies especially
the latter part. After all the greatest danger
is In attempting TO prove too much by the
scriptures The best preachers will do as do
the best lawyers in this, they will not at
tempt to prove too much. We must keep In
view the great purpose, foundation which
is not tn teach the science but relion. Life
and Immortality are revealed fully in the
Bible, and nowhere else,-"The world by
wisdom Il. g. sclence) knew not God, but God
is revealed in Christ reconcilng the world
unto himself. This is the sense and sub
stance Of Christian doctrine. This outline
gives slight idea of very interesting dis
cussion.
There was essential harmony of belief
amongst those present. A pleasant feature
OF the meeting was the hearty congratulatory
vote to Rev. Mr.. Wright upon the completion
of the Goth year of his passionate In the St.
Lawrence street church.
