other boys went hunting last Saturday.
Thinking they might run across rab-
bit or two they took along Dennison
Forsyth's fox hounds. In one Of the
ravines near the post the dogs chased
wildcat into the limbs Of scrub oak
tree, when one of the dogs made run
ming jump and landed on the cats
back, pulling her to the ground, where
she was quickly put to death by the

A GREAT SEASON FOR MAPLE-SUGAR.
'sUrlcss am greatly mistaken" said
Loren Cushman yesterday, 'sthe COM
in, spring will be a great season for
maple sugar making. 1t is well known
to those who have engaged in that bust
ness that good season always follows
a winter that furnishes abundance OF
cold weather. The maple sap is always
sweeter altera period of intense frost;
and furnishes a larger percentage OF
sugar. Not only that, but the trees
yield larger quantity of sap after
cold winter Than they do after winter
thar has frequent thaws and periods OF
warm weather. The snow in our coun-
ty is very deep, and unless remarkably
warm weather should come it will be
on the ground until well along in April.
There is such an immense body of it
that sugar making will not commence
until late in the season, but when we
get at it We shall make more Of the
toothsome sweet than We have made
before in years. "-Norpich Morning

The Trolley and Fires.
From the Philadelphia Press.


The fire that occurred in Washington last
Wednesday afternoon, in the office OF the
Western Union Telegraph Company, is
believed to have resulted from the crossing
of a trolley wire with a telegraph wire.
The powerful dynamo current carried by
the trolley wire was transferred TO a tele-
graph wire by the two coming In contact,
and this set fire to the woodwork In the
cupola OF the Western Union building and
caused the fire. 1t has been proved that
fires in the past have been caused by the
crossing Of wires and by the inadequate
insulation of electric light and trolley wires.
The great Thanksgiving day fire In Boston
few years ago was started by an electric
light wire, and doubtless other fires have
been caused in the same way, but as the
fires destroyed all possibility of investigat-
ing the origin they could not be traced to
their sources. The Washington fire also
shows that the crossing of a trolley wire as
far away as Baltimore is from that city
may start disastrous confagration- Phil
adelphias streets are soon to be strung
with trolley wires TO propel it's street cars
II all Its telegraph wires had been put I'M
foreground, as a city ordinance requires
the danger from crossed wires would be
greatly lessened II not wholly removed
Most OF the wires are still up, however
Offering a constant menace from fire TO
every building having connections with
telegraph, telephone and electric light wires
IL Is impossible now to stop the stringlng
OF the trolley wires. but il is impossible 10
insist that the work shall be so carefully
done as to reduce the danger from fire 70 a
minimum.

business department. With a determination
to make The Post thoroughly Independent.
these two have now labored together for
nearly five years, Identifying themselves
with local interests and bringing the only
morning newspaper at the capital to the
front as one Of the great journals OF the
country. Their aim has been to use all
legitimate enterprise and industry in col
lecting and presenting the news, to discuss
every subject-political. religious and So
cial-from an independent standpoint and to
devote their paper to the development of
one Of the fairest cities Of the world.
Useful and Ornamental.
Their success may be measured in part by
the handsome structure which will here
after be the home of The Post. Though de-
signed to be primarily a model newspaper
plant, this building. with front of Indiana
limestone. is a slightly structure from the
artistic standpoint. Though its main out
lines are Roman in their square simplicity.
the elaborate ornamentation OF the front is
decidedly Gothic.
The first story, elevated above the side
walk so as to admit of a well lighted base
ment, is built in triple arcade. the entrance
and the central arch being approached
by broad stone steps with ornamental
pedestals on each side, supporting large
wrought iron lamps. The central arch,
supported by carved pilasters, Is crowned
with square cap. above which, In raised
stone letters, Is the inscription, THE Wash
ington Post" The windows Of the second
story are built in elliptical arches trimmed
with stone molding, and above each is a
balustrade of futed columns carved in
elaborate and effective design. The third
and fourth floor windows are combined in
tall triple arches, the columns supporting
foliated capitals. The fifth floor shows six
arched windows a stone scroll above them
displaying again the name Of the paper.
The sixth floor shows four windows set In
