A despatch from Rome, N. Y, says
The condition of the Fort Stanwix national
bank proves to be very bad. Although the
bank examiner will say nothing on the SUBJ
ject, it is stated on good authority that the
bank is involved to the extent of nearly if
not quite 100000.
The farm buildings of Henry Decker at
South Deerfield were burned early Satur-
day morning. All of the stock and part
of the furniture were saved, but two crops
of tobacco were destroyed. The fire
caught from the chimney. The loss is
$4,000, with no insurance.
Florence, the three-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Clesson Stratton of Gill, died
Saturday from the effects of severe burns
which she received Friday. The child was
left alone a few minutes, her mother re-
turning from another room to find her
clothes afre. 1t is thought the fire started
from spark from the stove.

A Terrible Tragedy of the Sea.

Captain Anderson of the tank steamer
Phosphor, now in port at New York from
Shields, tells a story that probably ac-
counts for the non-arrival in England of
the British tank steamer Wild Flower,
which left Philadelphia for Rouen, France,
Dec. IL. The Wild Flower has never been
heard of since. She had 1900, 900 gallons
Of petroleum in her tanks. Captain An
derson says the steamer Loeb Etive, from
New York for Cork, reported on her ar
rival there, Jan. s, that about $50 miles
west-southwest from the coast of Ireland,
on Jan. 6, the crew saw a sudden glare in
the sky. As far as the eye could see to the
westward the sky was vivid red, and then
the color died out slowly. A dull roar
like the discharge of a heavy gun was
heard, and it made the Loeb Etive vibrate
and rock. Captain Anderson and the cap
tain of the Loeb Etive are both convinced
that the tlare-up was the explosion of the
100000 gallons of oil in the Wild Flow
er's tank. There were 20 men on the
missing vessel.

We Keep the Best
Rubber Footwear
OF ALL KINDS.

Millions of dollars are wasted
annually upon poor, worthless rub
Der footwear, and all because some
people seem to think cheap, poor
article is more economical TO buy
than a medium priced, good one.
There are more than so brands of
rubber footwear made. Some makes
wont last, on an average, tive
weeks while others will last from
one to three years. Why some
people insist on buying the cheap
brands while the kinds that give a
lasting service can be had for but a
lrifie more is not clear to us.
There are some companies who
can make a good sandal, but can't
make a good boot; and some that
make a good boot don't make good
sandals or lumberman's goods.
We have made rubber goods a
study for many years, and we think
our experience is valuable to our
customers as we'll as ourselves.

Rival of the Atkinson Threatenened.

E. II. r. Green, son of Mrs. Hetty
Green and president of the Texas Midland
railroad, is in st. Louis to confer with the
officials of the St. Louis and San Francisco
railway. Mr.. Green has made PROPOSE
ton that if the Frisco road was separated
from the general receivership of the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe railway, the
Midland would construct line connecting
the Frisco at Paris, Tex, with the Mid
land, and giving the Frisco an outlet
through Dallas and Fort Worth to the
gulf. First steps were taken some time
ago for a separate receivership. Mr..
Green's proposed connection will give st.
Louis a new and more direct connection
with the gulf, and largely increase the ter
ritory of the Frisco.

travelled avenue for all who are going
and coming from Portland. A large
portion of the rental comes back to the
oit5 in taxes, and IL would seem good
plan to encourage such buildings. There
are to be two large fire proof vaults, one
opening out of the room of the treasurer
and clerk; the other opening out of the
CITY engineer rnom; both are unusually
large and suitable for the increasing
records plans. and papers ofthe city. On
the whole the offer seems to come at a
very opportune time for the city, as new
quarters are certainly needed.
