Big Fire at Lewiston.

The worst fire in the history of
Lewiston occurred last Sunday.
BY the explosion of kerosene
lamp in the hands of workman,
fire was started in the hay of the
Collins livery barn. A load of
loose hay was being unloaded
about 8 O'Clock, when the fire was
started. 1t enveloped not only the
load, but the entire NOV. The
barn, the largest.in the town, was
a mass of flames before the fire.
men arrived with the hose carts.
The alarm had been only imper-
fectly sounded, and but few of the
regular firemen were On hand to
man the apparatus.
The fire spread rapidly to adj
joining buildings, and two dwell
ings were destroyed. The water
system affords effective protection,
but the firemen are but poorly
organized. The belief has pre-
vailed that Lewiston possessed inn
munity from the fire element.
The livery barn was leased by
Mr.. Munshaw, who loses heavily
on stock. There was barely time
to save the horses. All the feed,
harness, saddles and many of the
carriages were consumed. His
loss was probably $4,000, with
$1,000 insurance.
M. J. Collins, the proprietor OF
the barn, loses $4,000, with no in
Surance.
N. B. Holbrook, dwelling house,
loss $4,000; no insurance.
Other losses will amount to
80, 1000 more, with no insurance.

Have Won q Battle.
Born originally in Greece, it had it's
renascence in Italy, and Grisoni and
Fiaschl must be acknowledged the true
fathers of the art, however ready we
may be to admit that the courts of
francis I. and Henry ~, by early adop-
ton of the offspring, adorned its devel-
epment with the courtly grace, luster
and urbanity of French influence, which
made the MENACE the art of the princes,
as another nation and age made hawk
ing the sport of kings.
They say" wrote Ben johnson,
princes learn no art truly but the art
of Workmanship. The reason is, the
brave beast is no flatterer. He will
throw prince as soon as his groom"
The Greek theory of education, as we
find it in Plato, was of a twofold kind:
"One of gymnastics relating to the
body, the other of music for the sake
Qf o good state of the SOUL" briefly, as
Mr.. Pater expresses it, "a gymnastie
fused in music" This system of edu-
cation the Greeks applied no less to the
traiping of horses than of men. In the
earliest extant treatise on riding,
Xenophon pointed out that horseman-
ship. like dancing, was dependent fun
damentally on the play impulse, that
for anything to be done well it must be
done for pleasure; what the horse
does under compuision is done without
understanding, and there is no beauty
in 1t any more than if one should whip
and spur dancer" The horse must
become an artist, too, in his manner.
and use his limbs with rhy thmical free
DOM
So far was this carried that Athenaeus
relates how the Sybarites taught even
their horses to dance at their feasts to
the music of the flute; and on one oc-
casion their enemies put their knowl-
edge of this habit to humorous account.
by taking out flute players TO battle and
winning the cavalry over to their side
