Brunswick, Ca, May 31.-The appoint
ment of a postmaster for Brunswick to
succeed Capt. w. F. Symons, the pres
ent incumbent. is expected within the
next few days.
Capt. Symons was confirmed in June
ana mas nearly served his four years,
except for a few days. 1t is generally
conceded now that Mr.. F. Nice. Brown
will be the new postmaster. He has
secured the Endorsement of the local Re-
publican Committee, the Eleventh Dis
trict and the State Committee, and has
no opposition at present from any source.
Charles A. Clark, the well-known col

his party TO object to giving him some

much liked here by Democrats as well
as Republicans.

SEVERE FIRE AT ARGYLE.
Little Town Sustained Heavy Losses
From the FLAMES.

Valdosta Ga, May S1-A special from
Argyle, on the plant System, says: big
fire swept our little town last night at 10
o dock. The fire originated in the store
of Wallace & Williams, leaping from there
to the Plant System depot, thence TO Grit
fifth & Bros store and then to Thomas
j. Funk's establishment converting all TO
ashes in two hours time. The fire burned
ferociously and 1t was impossible to con-
troll II while fuel was in its path.
Wallace q Williams loss is estimated at
$4,000 with insurance OF 5000. Griffith
Bros loss Il $500. with no insurance.
Funk saved all of his stock except some
ice. He had no insurance. The loss to the
railroad company was total, except the
office papers which were moved out.
This is the worst fire that Argyle has
ever had, and the burned district makes
the town look very differently from what
1t was yesterday. The fire is supposed to
have originated from the explosion of a
lamp. The railroad company has already
begun the work of repairing Its losses. and
the depot is to be rebuilt as rapidly as the
work can be done. IL is not known
whether the other parties will rebuild or
not.

PAULDING OF LONG ISLAND CELE-
DRAFTED PIPPIN APPLE CIDER.

This pure cider is served on steamers on
the American line, and at the Waldorf-As-
toria and leading family grocers in New
York city.
Pauldings Pippin cider is made from
the pure juice of hand picked apples from
his own mill on the premises. 1t is abso-
lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer-
vescence is natural, and we guarantee il
to be the choicest cider in the world.
Leading physicians in New York and
Brooklyn recommend this cider to their
patients, its perfect purity is guaranteed
In Paulding's Pippin cider, only Long Is
land Newtons Pippins are used. The ap-
pies are left on the trees until late in Oc-
tobef when they are hand picked anu
placed in a dry room to ripen.
Paulding says "the apples are thorough
ly crushed in his own mill and the Juice
pressed out and into sweet clean
casks" The difference between crushing
and grinding apples is very great
You will know the difference between
crushed apes and ground apples if you
take some stems and chew them you will
find that bitter taste which is not with
Pauldlng's crushed apples. This cider has
not the extreme sweetness OF the Russet
cider, and everyone will find the Pauld-
'ugs Pippin cider just right TO take with
dinner. Lippman Bros,
