LYNDON.

It haslong been expected that the Main
street of this village would some day go
I'D in smoke. No one ever thought that
if one side went there could be any posi-
bility of saving the other But such was
the case Monday morning, when the
most disastrous fire in the history OF the
village occurred. About 5 O'Clock fire
was built in the hotel Office store. In
some way the pipe evidently became dis
Mace and the wood work caught fire
from the stove pipe tlue. The fire started
in the partition OF the room over the
office. 1t worked it's way slowly and
was not discovered until nearly six,
when A. T. Hoyt was going home from
his meat market to breakfast and noticed
smoke coming out of one of the hotel
windows. The alarm was given and
crowd quickly gathered. A few pail. OF
water would have stopped the fire it it
could have been reached before it got
hevond control. Fire broke out from
the hotel root about 20 minutes past six
and both sides of the street looked
doomed.
The flames quickly spread from the
hotel to the carriage shed with hall over
head. from there to the large hotel barn
then to Patterson's drug store, Eaton:
tin shop and hardware store and Ryan''
residence. Everything on this side OF thu
street was in a blaze at once, with thu
execution of the Ryan tenement HOUSE
and the SWEET store at the extreme ends
THE RYAN house was too far away to b.
i, ,,,,,ch danger and the SWEET building
was saved BY hard work. The flames
lowered high, and the heat was Sc
intense that the gable ends on the othe
side of the street finally burst out into

The manager of the Farmers mutual
creamery association of St. Johnsbury
was in town this week making definite
arrangements for the establishing here OF
a central cream station in connection
with their separator station, which when
completed will accommodate other cream
patrons in this locality, enabling them to
leave their cream here, instead of going
to the creamery at St. Johnsbury, a saw
ing of a ten-mile drive. The cream pa
irons who patronize it can take their
turns in delivering the cream, same as do
the milk patrons of the station, thus
avoiding any transportation expense,
and at the same time give each an op'
portunity to do any business at ST.
Iohnsburv that is called for. Another
advantage will be that the cream can be
transported in the cool OF the day, any
hour after the break of day. while now
the cream is not started off until after
the mornings separation of milk is com
pleted.

WEYLER MUST QUIT
Sagasta Says if the Captain
General Doesn't Resign He
Will Be Recalled.
Situation There and in the Phil.
ippines Such That Delay
Is Dangerous.
Meeting of Rich Spaniards
at Havana Favors Wey-
ler's Retention.

MADRID, Oct. 6.-Itis reported here
that General Stewart L. Woodford left
at the foreign Office an official note
from Secretary Sherman. Premier
Sagasta, in an interview, is quoted as
saying that most important questions
are before the cabinet ministers, who
have thorough knowledge of the fnan-
cial position of Spain and possess accu-
rate details of the situation in Cuba and
the Philippine islands. The govern
ment, Senior Sagasta added, will carry
out its political and military pro-
gramme with firmness and sagacity.
When the premier was questioned re-
garding the future of Captain General
Weyler, he said he supposed Weyler
would resign, adding that, if he did not
do SO he would be recalled. In conclu-
sion, Senior Sagasta said that the most
prompt action would be taken In the
Philippine islands, where the situation,
he explained, admitted of no delay.
