RIPION.

John Hodges, ST., of Bridport was in
town on Sunday last.
There was a slight coat of white frost
on bridges and planks over water in low
places on the 2lst inst.
At last, after months of waiting, we
have telephone. The instrument was
placed in position on Saturday last.
Rev. J. j. Noe, the presiding elder of
Burlington district, was in town on the
DIST INST. looking after Methodist in
terestS.
In the account of the fire here in the
last paper the name of +. La France oC-
ours. 1t was written f. La Francis and
should be F. La Francis. The names are
different and the families are not con-
nected.
Rev. G. +. Cady of Brdport occupied
the Methodist pulpit on the 10Th inst,
preaching very acceptable sermon. He
spoke with an evident effort, for he was
suffering from bad cold, but those that
heard him would gladly do so again.
The Bridport baseball boys duly made
their appearance OH the 18th inst. and
were duly defeated by score of 10 to $,
the Bridport boys playing nine innings
and the RiptOns eight Chas Doug
lass of East Middlebury was umpire and
was only OF ce at fault. When runner
was trying for second base and another
for home plate, he declared both out,
when the decision should have been one
out: but man can scarcely look in two
opposite directions at one and the same
time.
1t appears that p. A. Campbell had
some $500 insurance on his buildings that
were burned. but perhaps that includes
contents The origin of the fire still re-
mains a mystery and Is likely foreman so.
A few facts are certain. There had been
no fire in the mill since early April. the
stove having been taken out at that time.
1t could not have arisen from a hot
journal, for long before journal becomes
hot enough to ignite intlammable sub
stances it will give out strong odors
easily and quickly noticed, and none
were noticed 1t was over seven hours
after the mill shut down for the night
before fire showed itself. The floor was
covered with green hemlOck sawdust and
planer shavings, materials hard to burn
under any circumstances and therefore
very unlikely to have caught from the
fire from pipe or cigar The mill was
seen by several persons within 40 minutes
of the alarm and no fire was visible.
When first seen the mill was all afire in
the inside. Mr.. Hodges is expected to
rebuild. A subscription was started to
assist him and in part of day some
5000 was pledged, aboring men con-
tributing literally. His loss, exclusive of
insurance (Which as yet is an unknown
quantity, will reach $1,000 or more.
