Spread of the Flames.

The two dwelling houses on Lee court
occupied by the colored families caught
fire shortly after the Hess barns and
one was totally destroyed before the
flames were placed under control. The
other is practically a total loss. also.
The firemen had made valiant EFFORTS
to save the two dwelling houses at 5lS
and go Pine street all along, but they
both caught almost at the same time.
about 6 o'clock. The dwelling at 5lS
is unoccupied and is owned by II. p.
Jadwin. of Carbondale brother of c.
p. Jadwin. of this city. The one at
500 is owned by Mrs. Dora Bowie and
is occupied by Attorney r. j. Beamish.
The fire in the Boamish residence
was eXtingushed in short time,
though not until about 81. 900 damage
had been done. The fire in the Jadwin
house. however, proved a harder prop
osition to cope with and the fire was
not put out until almost one-half of the
building was destroyed. The fire may

about o'clock when the flames in the
barns and the Hess building were being
gradually distinguished.

Railroad Gossip.

The Montpelier Argus hears that thu
Central Vermont railroad, which means
of course, the Grand Trunk, is negotiat
ing for lease of the Vermont Valley
road which is now leased to the Boston
& Maine and runs from Windsor to
Brattleboro. If this was accomplished
it would give the Grand Trunk direct
line of their own from Montreal to New
London and from there to New York by
boat. Concerning the rumor the Argus
says:
Whether or not the report is true can
not be learned, but one thing is certain,
the Central Vermont conductors have
been ordered to learn the route from
Windsor to Brattleboro, and it is ex-
pected very shortly that they will run
through from Montreal to Brattleboro.
while in certain railroad circles the
report is credited there is also among
other railroad men a disbelief. These
latter do not think the Boston & Maine
would make such concession, since that
road has held the controlling hand in
retaining possession of the Sullivan
County railroad. On the other hand it
is said that the Central Vermont had
planned building track from Windsor
to Bellows Falls on the Vermont side of
the river for which charter was held.
The building of road from Windsor
to Bellows Falls would bring the Central
Vermont into Boston over the Fitchburg
and thus make another competing line to
Boston which the Boston & Maine is not
anxious should exist
ut is known that there has been for
five years certain track privileges be-
tween the Boston & Maine and the Cen
trail Vermont, which neither side has
wholly exercised. AT the time when the
New London and Northern was leased
to the Central Vermont, the Connecticut
River road, now owned by the Boston &
Maine, made big fight in the Massa-
chusetts legislature with the result that
there was embodied in the bill the clause
that the Central Vermont should give
he Connecticut River road track priv
eges to Brattleboro and on a further
concession by the Central Vermont Of
rack privileges from Windsor to White
Siver Junction, the Central Vermont was
!lven track privileges from Windsor to
3rattleboro.
The Boston & Maine road has
Utilized the track privileges and has run
is crews from Springfield to Windsor,
,ut has not utilized the privilege between
White River Junction and Windsor. The
-entral Vermont has never exercised the
privileges it had between Windsor and
'rattleboro.
by those who are contrary to the
pinlon that lease is being effected it is

chief attraction of the evening and her
sweet and pure voice was heard to splen-

peared first in Gounods aria from "Rene
de Saba" and was quickly encored.
Later in the evening she gave three selec
tions, consisting of Tosti's "Invano."
Henschel's "Scotch Cradle Song" and
Mathews "May-day." The quartette
played with wonderful technique and ex-
preston and gave very classical pro-
gramme. The audience were favored
with two delightful solos, one by the
'cellist, Herman Boyer. Hane, and one bv
the leader OF the quartette, Franz Kali
tenborn.
The audience was very chary of their
encores, which is matter of regret as at
Rutland the night before encores were in
great demand when the artists gave
some more popular pieces that were ex-
tremely well received.
