RUNNING Things
That is What.the Hogs Appear
to.be Doing
AT THE INFIRMARY.

A Valuable New Orchard That is Badly
Damaged Through Some Ones Ine@-
ciency-Raspberry and Blackberry
Patches.
II one visits the inflrmary now he will
find that the hogs have been turned loose
into a thriving young orchard and there
is scarcely tree In 1t that hasn't been
skinned and barked by the hogs Close
to the barn there was once little strip Of
ground that was fenced in which was
used TO cultivate raspberries. The hogs
were also turned into this and as matter
of fact they made short work with the
bushes. At another place on the farm
there Is place where they cultivate
black berries and the hogs have been
turned into that. For some reason or
other the hogs seem to be running things
at the inflrmary.

and Hartford streets was destroyed by
fire Friday night at 1895 O'Clock. The
loss is placed at 81, O)O with 81, 0Oo insur-

terry.
An alarm from box No. I12 called part
Of the fire department to the scene of the
blaze and another alarm few minutes
later called out the balance Of the aparat-
u.s. When the department reached the
fire the entire building was in flames and

burning. building.
The heat was so intense that it was
with. difficulty the firemen could get close
to the building. Tine flames soon spent
their fury, but not until everything was
In ruins. A telephone pole across the
street was badly charred by the fearful
heat.
The plant Of the Canton Ladder Co.
consisted of two frame buildings, the fire
starting in the larger one. The flames
quickly spread to the smaller building,
and both were destroyed The ware
house, and considerable lumber in the
yard, were not damaged
The plant is owned by J. l.. and J. NJ.

besides ]. L. Spungler. The establish
ment shut down at noon yesterday, and
after that time there was no fire about
the place Mr.. Spangler was there at
o'clock in the afternoon, when he left to
deliver some goods.
J. l.. Spangler, when seen Saturday
morning by News Democrat reporter
said the loss on buildings and ma

which is covered by insurance He could |
not tell when the works wodld be rebuilt, !
and had no idea how the blaze started.
There is a rumor that some time ago
tramps were seen to enter the building,
and it is possible they may have been
sleeping there last night, but nothing
definite is known. The fire burned fierce

HOW LoNDoNERs SPEND MONEY.
They Impoverish Themselves In Useless
Health Destroying Pleasures.

They Impoyerish Themselves In Useless,
Health Destroying Pleasures.
Londoners impoverish themselves and
make themselves absurdly miserable by
their own devices. Most OF the things on
which they expend their money are van
tiles or frauds. Their houses and their
dress, as we have seen, are pitiful, their
special literature often worse than none,
their art the pictures on the hoardings
their amusements sensual. Their worry
holidays are miserable labor, dull excite
ments, almost wholly without physical or
mental good or intellectual gain. A time
of quiet relaxation or of natural enjoy
ment is indeed the lot of but Few. Crowd.
ed excursion trains and the rude compa" v
at seaside towns are the inlliction of the
lower, middle and the working classes,
and bank holidays are perhaps as much an
injury as blessing. Railways and steam
boats and the means of entertainment are
so overcrowded that all healthy, civilized
enjoyment is impossible, and SO the man
ners of the people become cOarser from
the very means that should promote i'm
provement.
On the continent each parish has its iso-
lated fete, well managed and within the
means at hand, and thus these fetes aro
graceful, oiviliztng entertainments We in
London need such limitedly local relaxa-
tions, SO that each part of the metropolis
being as occasion may require, assisted by
the Others, district holidays might be
means of good alternately to all the popu-
lation. Probably from mere conceit or
mental laziness the people are so fond OF
bigness and monotony that they entirely
overlook tie ways Of providence, in which
the multitudinously small and varied Is
the rule. Monotony and uniformity, the
radical idea, are alike apart from provi-
dence and healthy human nature.-Quar-
terly Review.
