and with his devoted wife seemed to en-
JOY the gathering much. The ladies, not
unmindful OF their part to make the occa-

excellentscoffee, cake and tropical fruits.
After the entertainment prayer was offer

W as made, and responded to by Mr. and
Mrs. Allen, kindly thanking their many
friends not so much for the intrinsic val

love and sympathy which the occasion in
spired. The company took leave of the
deacon and his amiable lady at an early
hour, leaving their best wishes for the
couples temporal welfare, and as life's
journey closes may their sun set in cloud
less sky, to wait the beauties OF brighter

Wednesday night the cry OF fire again
rang through our streets. 1t was about
IL 80 p. m. when it was discovered in Tar
BELLS block and the barn Immediately adj
joining. 1t had gained such Roadway that
to save the building was impossible and
shortly after ~ O'Clock the roof fell in.
All that remained of that building which
had stood for so many years as store and
Office was swallowed by the flames in one
short hour, together with all its contents.
Nothing in the building was saved. Mr..
Atwood's stock of goods in store, Mr..
Slows law library and all his papers, the
Town Library OF some 100 volumes, Camp
No. 2S Sons OF Veterans furniture, books,
guns, flag, ETC.; all but the organ, one
flag and a few things that had not been
returned to the camp room since the fire
of two weeks before, were destroyed. The
loss is about $4,000; insured for about
$500. Tracy's buildings came near going
but persistent work saved them. The
real work however came in saving the
brick house on the other side, which was
connected directly with the Tarbell block
by an ell on the house, the small build
ing so long used by Mr.. Sanborn as har-
ness shop, then unoccupied, sand a barn
setting a little back. These buildings
were all on fire almost at once. The en-
CINE was brought into play and steady
stream OF water was kept pouring on the
flames on and about the brick house for 3
hours and at last the fire was under con-
troll. Had the flames passed the brick
house the whole street between the squares
must have been swept out. The goods
were removed from the surrounding hous-
es or were packed ready to go at a mo-
ment's notice. How, when and where the
fire started is a mystery.
The ladies of this place always do them
selves credit at fire and this was no ex-
ception. They could be seen working at
the brakes on the engine, carrying goods
from the houses or, what was more appre-
ciated at the time, bringing hot coffee to
the wet and begrimed fire fighters.
All having unsettled accounts with the
firm OF John B. Atwood will please call at
