\ New Building and Loan
Association.

A certificate of incorporation of the
Berlin Building and Loan Association
of Berlin, Nd" has been filed with the
Clerk of the Circuit Court The in
corporators and officers of the Associa-
ton are: Edward S. Furbush. Presi.
dent; +. King Wilson, Vice President;
Alfred ii. Howard, Secretary; Severn
Murray, Treasurer John I. keas,
Sidney A. Bowen, ID. {. Hudson, ID.
J. Adkins and William +. Dickerson,
Directors. Mr.. Dickerson Is also attor-
ney for the Association. The officers
of this Association are well-known, safe
business men and we feel sure the peo-
pie of Berlin will do well TO take
stock in the Association. 1t is not an
experiment, but is on the plan of the
numerous successful associations i'll
Philadelphia, after which the Snow
Hill association was nodded in 1891
The latter has proven a great success
and the Berlin Association will doubt
less do as well. 1t is surprising how
money accumulates in corporations OF
this kind, easily reaching tens of thous-
ands of dollars in few years. These
accumulations are generally. and al
ways should be distributed among the
people of the town in which the associa-
ton has its home office, and no cash re-
mains in the treasury, but is kept con-
tinuously OH the move. Besides afford
ing safe investment, il enables men to
build their own homes by the payment
of small monthly installments, which
cease in comparatively short time
Snow Hill has gotten great benefit
from the Snow Hill Building and Loan
Association although it has been in
operation only A months, and during
that time has never had to collect but
one loan. We congratulate the people
of Berlin in having organized Their
Association.

The extension of the Portland & Rum
ford Falls railroad will, it is expected, be
completed about February -. The
grading is practically all done. The old
contractors threaten legal proceedings to
recover what they allege is due them,
but the company also has claim in off
set. They allege that the failure of the
contractors to complete their job at the
time originally fixed in the contract, was
very decided damage to the road. The
recent favorable weather has been a
great thing for the line, as one day like
yesterday counts more than three cold
days. The management is very much
pleased with the progress made of late.
and while the early day named as the
probable date when the extension will

ed, still the work has reached a point
when very few good days would bring

A Close Call.

Deputy Sterling last evening had his
attention called to the meat store on the
corner of Market and Milk streets. An
oil stove in the centre of the room was in
full blast, three burners sending their
flames above the top, and the stove i'll
danger of exploding. The deputy con-
cluded that no time was to be lost, and
80 broke in the door and succeeded in
turning off the lights. He thought that
the oil stove had been lighted for the
purpose of heating the store, and had
been forgotten when the store was closed
for the night.
