Another Great Fire In Burlington.

AnVunVA 0ACUC cAAO ~ ASuhAAhS cOh'
The lumber district in Burlington
was again visited by fire early Tues
day morning. The Pioneer shops, ein-
bracing fourteen buildings on the lake
front, all owned by j. II. Booth, the
great lumber dealer, and occupied in
the manufacture OF lumber, were
burned ;also the three-story building
Of the Baldwin Refrigerator company.
The fire apparently started III the
shavings. shed, which was soon envel-
oped in flames. The fire was famed
by stiff northwest breeze and COM
municated to the buildings south.
The fircmen responded and made Il
brave fight. They tried hard to save
the Baldwin building, which would
have stayed the progress of the fire in
its early stages, but in vain. From
here the flames followed the line Of
sheds to the Vermont Shade Roller
building, d brick structure. Those
inside who were trying to save some
of the contents had to run for their
lives. One man, William L. Milling
ton, stayed too long and was burned
to death. The fire was intensely hot.
1t was master OF the situation and
burned until it burned itself out. The
Baldwin Refrigerator company was
working TO its utmost to fill orders.
A large storehouse full was ready to
ship and - hands were actively at
work. The pay roll last week was
more than 5000. Their factory was
supplied with !. large number Of wood
working machines and their business
was in a most prosperous condition.
The Shade Roller company employed |
20 men. Their shop was well 6quip-
ped with good machinery and their
works were active. They had two
carloads OF goods ready for shipment
and much stock in process for manu-
facture. Their shop was lOOx50. The
j. r. Booth shops which were burned
gave employment to about 200 men
and were working full time. The
space burned over was about I00x350
feet, and the buildings were all owned
by j. r. Booth except one.
Mr.. Booth has lost several fortunes
by fire. Only last Christmas day his
immense lumber stock at Burlington
was destroyed and last summer he
met with two great losses at Ottawa.
1t is doubtful il lie rebuilds his works
at Burlington.
The loss by this fire is estimated at
5000, 1000; total insurance, Sl26,O65.

The electric railroad, either the
trolley or some other system, is des-
! tined to do great work for this coun-
try in the not distant future. 1t has
advantages that the steam railroad
cannot acquire. Hill and plain are
alike to it. 1t stops at no barrier. The
cost of building and maintaining an
electric line is insignificant compared
with that OF steam road. This adj
mits of low rates for public conveyance
and transportation. The result will
be wonderful development of all
parts of the country. Vermont will
share in this in at least her due pro-
portion. Unused water powers will
be utilized in generating the necessary
power, which can be conveyed and
applied any reasonable distance away.
Sections OF our state which cannot
support steam road will be opened
up by this new agent. "Back towns
will be few. A network Of electric
lines will traverse our state, over hills
and through valleys, forming a quick,
cheap and easy system for conveyance.
The products of the farm and mill
will find ready outlet. The objcc-
tions to our farming towns will be re-
moved as they will be in close touch
with the outside world. An era of
prosperity will dawn that will far sur
pass any that we have yet enjoyed. If
the reader is inclined to smile at this
picture as the product of diseased im-
agination, let him clip this article, lay
it away and look at it twenty years
from to-day when the clectrics roll
past his door.

Scoflers at the Salvation Army, who
were plentiful enough ten years ago,
now confess their mistake and bow
their heads rcvcrently before Gen.
Ballington Booth, the founder of the
order, who is visiting this country. In
spite Of all its peculiaritics, there is
more real, practical Christianity in the
Salvation Army than in any other re-
ligious society of equal numbers that
we know Of II has done and is still
doing a grand work in channels which
have been Stunned and neglected by
other orders. In the country it is yet
only partly appreciated, but the cities
know how great and good its innu-
ence has been.

The vacancy on the Republican ma
tional committee occasioned by Col.
Colburn's death has been filled by the
state committee, who have appointed
Col. George 4. Childs Of st. Albans
TO the place. Col. Childs is man Of
great ability in certain lines, though
we should say he was not especially
qualified for this kind Of work. We
believe ex-Gov. Page was the man for
the place, but time may show our cr-
ror. We trust it will, and have only
good wishes for Col. Childs.

Japan has offered peace to China on
terms which will probably be accept
ed. Japan demands that the rich
island of Formosa be ceded her; that
the independence of Corea be ac-
knowledged; that Japan shall hold
the two important seaports of Port
Arthur and Wei. .IIai-Wei and that
China shall pay an indemnity of
$3.50, 100000 Seldom mas war been
fought to such a successful conclusion
as this, ON the part of Japan. The
terms of peace will prevent China
from getting early revenge, as Japan
will hold seaports that would be nec-
essary to China in the event of future
war between the two nations. The
results a triumph for civilization
over barbarism.

MUSIC AND THE SCHUBERT CLUB


Editor Astorian:-
To this club belongs the credit of hav-
ing first introduced in Astoria in an or,
ganized way, the very high order of music
which it has always maintained.
The program as rendered on Saturday
evening last at the house of Mrs. Ell
more, was greatly enjoyed by all pres
emit and showed the remarkable advance
ment made by the vocal members un-
der Mrs. H. T. Crosby's skillful training;
the rendition of the choruses being de-
serving of especial mention. To those
only, however, who were present at the
initiatory performances of the club, is
this advancement fully apparent and
most significant. The same degree oflpro-
gress can be noted with regard to the In
strumental performers.
Apropos of music, and since the idea
OF introducing musical instruction in our
public schools has been mooted, It would
seem to the wrltersa most fortunate thing
could Mrs. Crosby's services be securtd d
for this department. An article in your
Sundays paper on this subject is most
timely and bears directly upon the i'm,
portance of having proper musical in
struction in the public schools.
Music, although an accomplishment, and
perhaps not generally regarded as one OF
the essentials, should not be overlooked;
for hath not the great poet said:
The man who has no music in him
. self,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet
sounds,
Is fit for treason, stratagems md
spoils
The motions of his spirit are lull as
night,
And his affections dark as Erebus;
Let no such man be trusted"

TRINITY SUNDAY.
Appropriate Services Held at Grace
Church.

CAuTCu.
Last Sunday being Trinity Sunday the
Rev. Mr.: Short, at Grace church, as Is
the custom, confined his sermon to the
work Of the ladies' guild. His theme was
taken from the Sth verse of the 4th chap
ter Of st. John, f'God is love-"
The minister said: ION this Sunday,
Trinity, it has become the custom to
take up the work of the ladies' guild as
the subject for the day. The ladies'
guild of Grace church is the strong right
arm without which do not see how the
parish could have flourished. Ever faith
full, ever true to duty, to them is due
much of the beauty of the house OF wor-
ship, and many of the unseen and un,
noticed appointments are the work OF
Their hands. The love in their hearts has
prompted them to untring, cheerful labor
for the master The guild last year
raised $5lS for church purposes, besides
all of their other work. If there is only
love in our hsarts to do God work we
will keep on doing it through life with
out stopping to question.
God is love, and on this Trinity Sun,
day it is one of the strongest proofs
of the plurality of the God-head, for
it is impossible for any one to love with
cast his affections. He could not love
without someone to love. The fact that
God is love is an indication that there
is plurality in the God-head. 1t Is
mystery, but If there was no mystery
there would be no God
Do not get tired in your good work
for the love Of that God who first loved
you. have heard some say, "Oh, well,
l have served my time and some one
else should step inr4Row." Who ever
heard of a lover getti - tired If his heart
was in the right pla " Suppose 1 should
get tired? Suppose son of man should
get tired? Suppose God should get tired
Of letting the sun shine on a day like
this? Suppose he should get tired of
sending down these little rays of love
and should say that it seems that 1
have done all in my power for unappre-
ciative man?
Don't ever get tired. Don't ever stop
work. Be ever on the lookout for some
new way for hands and heart to work.
There is no end to Gods work-it will
be here just the same day after day,
next year, in five years, in ten years,
yes in ten centuries, should the universe
last so long. Gods love for us never
ceases, and on this Trinity Sunday 1
commend to you the thought that the
exponent of love is to do good and 1
do not know of any other way in the
world in which our love for God can find
expression.
God is love. Don't weary in we'll doing.
Get love of good in your lives and hearts
and manifest it in every possible way.
The church offers every inducement to
cultivate our love for God and our fell
lows"

A WORD IN YOUR EAR.

It's a word OF advice and suggestion.
1t will save you money If you heed 1t.
Times are not as good as they were.
They are improving, but still we must
all retrench. Formerly we could afford
to subscribe for half dozen, possibly
even a dozen, newspapers and maga,
zines. Now we must get along with two
or three. Our home paper we must
have-can't get along without that any,
how. We always found a good deal in
the other papers and magazines that
we didn't especially care for. If we
could just get a good weekly journal
that would give us the cream of all these
other papers and magazines, the things
best worth reading and preserving, We
could save both money and time, and still
keep up with the worlds doing and think
ing. Well, now, you can get just such
journal-PUBLIC OPINION, published

The Young Peoples Society of Chris
tian Endeavor of the Presbyterian church
held special service Sunday evening.
The program consisted of music and the
reading Of papers on different branches OF

dent, introduced the speakers in a few
well-chosen remarks, giving something
OF the history Of the society
Miss Geary's paper on how the society
can aid the pastor showed much thought
aid earnestness in the work and was
well-wrltten argument for the useful,
ness of the banded young people. LET

dens and so fulfill the law of Christ.
which is the law of love-"
Miss Bessie Ross read a paper upon the
springs Of Christianity based upon the
fable Of the young Persian Prince: "a
young Persian Prince had a noted shell.
By touching single spring 1t would
unfold and spread a canopy, covering
himself and companions. Touching am
other spring, the canopy would enlarge
sufficiently to cover the royal court of
the emperor. Another spring, and the
tent would spread out over the plains
and cover an army of thousands.
Mr.. Adams, the civil engineer, read
paper on the relation of the Christian
Endeavor Society to good citizenship,
which was listened to with great inter,
est. The Y. p. S. C. e. movement is
seeking a more general recognition of
those things that tend to right living,
right dying, and a glorious advent into

Mrs. W. p. Warren had paper on the
general work which was greatly appre-
ciated.

Improvements Being Made in the Toll
Road.


Under Supervisor Philbrick's careful di-
rection the Necannicum road from the
bridge at Eberman's ranch to the "Or-
chard," is rapidly being graveled. and
made one Of the finest roads in the state.
A large force of men during the past
week have been hard at work with teams
shovels and brush hooks, and up to Sat
urday evening had graveled over one
mile Of roadway, or more than one-halr
of the distance to the Orchard. This par
ticular piece Of road, distance of less
than two miles, has been the black spot
that has given the Elk Creek thorough.
fare so hard a name since the toll road
was opened UP four years ago. and when
1t is finished, 1t will be quite a monu-
ment to the enterprising citizens OF that
district who have subscribed literally
with cash and labor, to put the scheme
through. The toll road has been leased
for the coming season, by Messrs. Paul
Eberman and Alex. Duncan, who have
already started at work putting It in
good condition for travel. Visitors TO
Elk Z eek and other beaches to the
south this season, will be greatly sur.
prised at the Improvement to the road

no doubt add greatly to the number of
people who win take advantage OF tn

To the Edltor:--
Woman, devotional, always excels
man, and woman, silly, also succeeds in
attracting the most attention in public
places. The fact was illustrated Sun,
day morning in a certain uptown church.
Two well dressed women, seemingly
ladies, attired in apparently new clothes,
entered and took seats somewhat in the
rear, when during the entire service they
were source Of annoyance to all their
neighbors During the most solemn parts
of the service, when the heads of all
were bowed in prayer, these ladies %
were whispering and giggling together,
looking over their clothes or writing in
the hymn books. A parcel Of school girls
on frolic would have been more decor
ous Such actions are inexcusable In
any public gathering, whether 1t be at
church, lecture or opera.
