Last Saturday morning, before day
light, the old eye-sore opposite the depot
known as the Blanchard Portable Build
ing, was discovered by Night Waterman
Dickinson to be on fire. The building
was mere wooden shell, and although
! the tiremen responded promptly to the
alarm the structure could not be saved.
1t burned like finder aud in very short
| time fell in, the flaming timbers then be-
! ing quickly eXtinguished. The firemen
gave most of their attention to saving
the residence of Edward Goulette. which
stood but rod or so from the Blanchard
building. This difficult feat WAS accom-
/ plished, though the Out-buildngs near
by were charred to blackness. The pOr-
table building was the property of DR..
/ V. w. Blanchard. and was useI as an
advertisement. In 1t was stored consd-
cradle unused machinery, while f. II.
Thomas kept therein a number of new
farm wagons. Everything burnable was
consumed. Mr.. Goulette's house was
insured, but he sustains a loss of about
500 on OutbUildngs and damage by
water.
