WHITINGHAM'S $4,000 FIRE.
The Factory of the Moses Newton Shoe
Company Destroyed.

seventy -Gve Hands Thrown out Of Em-
plOyment--Fire Incendiary. or Caused
by Spontaneous Combustion.
The main industry of the village of Whit
ingham was wiped out of existence Thurs
day morning, when fire destroyed the fac
tory of the Moses Newton Shoe company,
causing a total loss of S2S,0 900, the loss on
the building being estimated at 5000; ma
chinery $4,000. and stock $1,000 There
was an insurance of 81 900, all placed
through the agency of Cudworth d Childs
of Brattleboro, in Il different companies.
The fire was discovered about o'clock
10y ii. M. Brown. who lives near the fac
tory. About the same time a young woman
employed in the family of Chas. $. Chase
also saw the flames and ran out and gave
the alarm. At this time the fire was CON
fined to the stitching room and had not
gained much headway. There were no
facilities of account in the village for fight
ing the fire and the flames had full sweep.
The house of Charles Chase caught fire
twice, and il was thought that it would
surely be destroyed, but the wind shifted
and it was saved, although badly scOrched
and blistered All the snow on the roof
was melted by the intense heat. Other
houses, including that of Hezekiah Brown,
were in danger after the wind changed

expected that his house would be DESTROY
ed, and Notwithstanding that he was
cripple and bedridden, he arose from his
bed land rushed out door Thinking that
he would save what he could, lac carried
out his best clothes and put them in the
yard. While lying there they were struck
by sparks and burned. Brands, cinders
and sparks fell to the ground all about the
factory within a radius of one-half mile
Seventy-fiye hands were employed in the
factory, and to have them thrown out of
employment at this time of year is very
serious blow. In the factory were l73
cases, each containing "a pairs of shoes,
ready for shipment February l. Twenty
three more cases of shoes were completed
ready for packing.
The fire was caused by spontaneous com
bustion or else was of incendiary origin.
There was nothing in the stitching room
to cause spontaneous combustion, with the
possible exception of about 80 pounds of
cotton waste. 1t is not known at this writ
ing whether the company will rebuild.
The factory was built in 1887 and en-
larged in 1890 1t was los by 81 feet in
size and contained working rooms on three
floors. 1t was run for about two years by
the Deertield Valley Shoe company After
this concern had experienced financial diff

by the Moses Newton Shoe company. Mr.

THE BRATTLEBoRo STREET RAIL
WAY.

The first meeting OF the stockholders
was held at the Brooks House last Satur-
day afternoon, and a board OF directors
chosen according 10 law, and the project
fairly put upon its feet. The five men
chosen are men OF ability and good iudg-
men, men TO whom the town or village
may safely confide its interests These are
the men who will locate the road. and after
mature consideration will doubtless put il
in the best place. The great thing is to
ind the cheapest and shortest route. There
will probably be no haste in beginning op-
erations. The money should all or nearly
all be raised here. and so be under the con-
troll of our own citizens. Cur men of
wealth who care for the growth OF our
town should help rather than decry what
in multitude of cases elsewhere has been
of great benefit. One would think by
some things that have been written and
spoken that a street railway was almost an
unheard-Of thing; IN experiment that a
few men were trying to foisI upon the town
IN fact. almost a curse.
But 10 refer again To the meeting of
stockholders, some 80 or 40 men were pres
ent representing some $4,000 subscribed
to the capital stock, fairly representative
men from both villages, men who meant
business. not at all scared by threats print
ed or spoken. In fact, they felt sure that
charter drawn by the Hon. II. II. Wheel
err and passed by our legislature, would be
safe thing to add their money to. The
Judge well knew at the time that horse
railroads were fast becoming things of the
past and purposely left the matter open as
to the manner of prOpelling the cars.
Once more referring TO the need, a few
days since there came to the writer's
knowledge this fact: A young married
man preferred 10 build and settle here for
his home. He had a small sum of money
sufficient TO build, if he could buy lot al
a reasonable price; this he could not do in
the East village, and SO seeks his home
elsewhere. He could not not walk from
the West village to his work. Cases like
this are constantly occurring. With this
road built TO the West village, where good
building lots can be bought at moderate
prices, such cases will not continually be
repeated. From a fair business standpoint.
taking for the basis of prediction the act
ual results from street railways in other
places, the population of the West village
will double in five years. Cannot our bust
ness men afford to help bring about such
a result

NOT HEARD FROM FOR 20 YEARS.
Peculiar circumstance Connected with
the Death Of Patrick Barry and Hts
Mother.

Peculiar ttrCumstnmce tOhnetteN WIN
the Death Of Patrick Barry and hts
Mother.
Mrs. Ellen Shea, wife of the late Patrick
Shea, died Saturday at the home of her
son. Daniel Shea, on Reed hill Her age
was 81 years. Mrs. Shea's maiden name
was Carey, and she was sister of Edmund
and David Carey and of Mrs. Collins of
Fitchburg. Mass. In addition to the son
with whom she lived she leaves a daughter,
Mrs. =. II. Mcguire Mrs. Shea was
woman who was highly esteemed and the
funeral Tuesday from the Roman Catholic
church was largely attended.
Patrick Barry, Mrs. Shea's son by her
first marriage, and a brother Of Mrs. Ma
guire, left here u years ago with Cornelius
Crowley of Putney and James Flavin of
Bellows Falls He was at that time 80
years of age. A year later he wrote to his
mother saying that he was TO enlist in the
army. The letter was not answered and
nothing more was heard from him. Flayin
and Crowley in the meantime returned.
Last Tuesday Mrs. Mcguire received
letter from Omaha. written by a person
with whom her brother had boarded. say
ing that he was i'm that city, dying in
hospital. Saturday, the day on which the
mother died, Mrs Mcguire received a tel
egram announcing the death of her long
lost brother. The body was buried there
on the day of the mothers funeral here.
The letter received Tuesday stated that
Mr.. Barry had been i'll about two years,
that he had often spoken OF his sister,
and that for this reason she was written
to.
Barry is remembered here by many peO-
pie. 1t has been supposed for many years
that he was dead At the time of the
Custer massacre, from the description of
one of the men it was thought that Barry
was killed, but after Col. Austine had
written to some of the officers 1t was evil
dent that the man was not Barry. Mrs.
Mcguire expects to receive more particulars
in regard to her brother.

POMONA GRANGE MEETING

Windham County Pomona grange held
it, quarterly meeting with Protective
grange on the 18th inst. The morning
was devoted to grange work A class was
instructed in the fifth degree. Plans were
discussed for the years work After din
ner p. :. Eames welcomed the people to
our town and spoke of the advantages
arising from such gatherings in an educa-
tiOnal and social way. Then followed a
practical address by Col. Hooker upon
roads He showed the advantages of good
roads, and suggested that possibly towns
might combine in buying stone crusher
and then use plenty of stone upon their
roads Plow deep he said, in wet places
take out the mud and fill with stone. then
cover with gravel or slate stone Be SURE
that the under drainage is perfect Great
assistance is expected under the new law
providing for a road commissioner in Sc
curing better roads. He thought we ought
TO have state. and also national aid in road
building. Some of the immense amount
of money spent for coast defences and riv-
er and harbOr improvements ought TO be
used TO make better roads. He spoke OF
the use in some sections OF vehicles whose
wheels did not track. the forward axle be
ing shorter than the hind one: the roads
derwood OF Westminster referred to the
old Roman roads. still to be found in some
places, that have stood for centuries and
were built upon the principles advocated
at the present time.
The discussion of the question. sShould
agricultural societies be run for the amuse-
ment OF the people or for the advance
ment OF agriculture. or both?n was open
ed by Geo. W. Pierce, who advocated plen-
ty of amusement, but more attention given
TO improvement: then greater and better
results would be obtained He spoke OF
our Valley fair as being a clean, attractive
exhibition, and every thing tended toward
improvement. and when plenty of room
could be had more improvement would
follow The speaker who followed him
thought too much attention was now given
TO amusements as that word is used, and
referred to the dairymens meeting lust
held at Morrisville, where nine successive
meetings were held, all the proceedings
tending toward improvement and not
amusement; still the house was packed
full and many stood for two hours earnest
ly listening. Mrs. Ella Eames thought
too much could not be done for improve
ment in all agricultural societies. Mrs
julia Newton spoke of amusements which
were an aid to improvement, and also sue-
gested That improvements be made in the
way of additional room and revised pre-
MUM list for our fair, which was warmly
approved by all present, and many suggest
ed that these questions be brought to the
attention OF the officers of the fair at their
annual meeting. Mrs. Alma Goodenough
urged the educational and social work, and
the improvements spoken of for the fair

A BACK DOWN

Mr.. Editor:-I was told Yesterday that
the electric road folks have given up their
plan to run round through Canal, Birge
Frost and Flat streets, and now mean only
TO run up through Main, across the com
mon, through Chaplin, Oak and High
streets TO Western avenue and so on to
West Brattleboro. This is lust the part
OF the village that don't need and don't
want the road, and that will give very little
support to it after the new wears OFF. Near
ly all the people living on or near these
streets have their own horses and carriages
and wont give support enough TO it to keen
a tea alive. Now what becomes of all the
gushing talk about helping the poor man
and his family, and getting the children to
school, over which Mr.. Barrett and others
have been shedding such briny tears? The
men who work in the shops would have TO
walk as Tar, or farther on the average. to
reach the cars than they would to reach a
comfortable home in this village; and be-
sides would have to lose at least half an
hour night and morning on the cars. and 10
pay say 50 month car fare for man and
FAMILY Wouldn't it be better to add the
30 month to his rent if necessary (thouob

the grand scheme to haul all the freight TO

Dig money? Gone with all the rest that

owned by c. NJ. c. Richardson. There
are also q cisterns, large and small, nov

tinued while the severe weather lasts A
storage supply is gradually being accumulat-
ed in the reservoir, but aside from this the
pressure afforded by the steam pump, which
is now in operation night and day, pro
vides the best possible protection. Besides
the capacity OF the three steamers, six full
