sldered Good for a Beginning.

up to the average. because Of ignorance
OF the method of cultivation, hundreds of
ucres not being harvested at all, because
the growers did not think 1t would pay

and Mr.. Schroeder was no stranger, for
he Is mem Dor Of the orchestra.
The Beethoven symphony, the main

The prospects for professional base
ball in New England are considered to
be excellent this year, and there is every
reason TO expect a successful season. as
the clubs in the league will be more
evenly matched in strength than ever
before. Newport came into the league
after being represented for one year by
an independent club: Taunton had a

year the clubs have about the same

LoNDoNS FIRE BRIGADE.

London. Jan 13.-As result OF the in
vestigation which has been in progress
for several weeks past into the great fire
which occurred recently in the Cripple
Gate district OF London. the Jury finds
that the fire was not caused by a gas ex-
plosion or by spontaneous combustion,
but was the work OF some person or
persons unknown"
The foreman said the jury was unani-
nous in the BELIEF that the fire originated
on. the premises OF Waller e. Brown. He
added that the jury was not satisfied
that the fire brigade was fully equipped
with steam engines, and was not unani-
nous in the opinion that the water sup
ply was efficient. and recommended that
an engine with steam continually up be
always kept at the central fire station.
