. the Kitchen.
FIe expressed his intention to call no
witnesses. The question was entirely
one of fact Mr. Nicholas and his po.
lice witnesses had spoken Of having
raided the land of his client. most
respectable and worthy man, and they
testified to having found thereon GER
tain utensils. but--and here Mr.. Han.
rahan paused to give due effect to his
pronouncement-nO evidence had been
adduced to show that the land was the
property Of the defendants or in their
possession.
Great sensation in court. during which
the defendants grinned broadly and
the prosecution assumed a perpleXed
frown. Mr. Hanrahan then produced
a map Of the estate prepared by the
landlord and invited Nicholas to indi-
cate the precise spot where the uten'
sils were found. Nicholas did so, mark
ing spot on Caseys side of the stream.
The accuracy of that Mr. Hanrahan at
once begged leave to doubt. Then en-
sued d long legal wrangle, which was
ended only by the long suffering magls'
trate deciding to adjourn the court to
the disputed spot and there decide the
matter for himself.
In less than half an hour three car
loads of people. magistrate. counselors'
prosecutors and defendants, drove of
from the courthouse amid the admirinG
cheers of the assembled mob.
Throughout the journey Nicholas was
grumpy and silent. From the doubtful
knowledge which he possessed OF the
land so recently purchased by him from
the Widow Bryan he began to fear
that in the excess of his zeal he had
bounced upon still on his own land.
Surely enough his fears were con
firmed. The stream ran most conclu'
sively on Pat Casey's side Of the guilty
spot, and the party returned to the
courthouse to 90 through the formality
IF discharging the defendants.
That trouble off his mind and enjoy
ing the sensation Of being the hero OF
the barony, Pat made all haste with
the preparations for his wedding tG
Nora Condon. Not many Gays liter ille
pair presented themselves ut the kil

Fires in Farm Buildings.
UNUSUAL LOSSES IN A SINGLE NEIGH
BoRHoOD--LOoK TO THE CHIMNEYs.

Since the first of January three out
fits of large farm buildings have burned
in this vicinity. The first two to go
were owned by John Hilan. The next
were the buildings of Reuben Gerry
which were burned on the morning Of
Jan. 30. March 10 the buildings of
Miss Grace E. Connor, built in recent
years, were discovered to be on fire by
people going home from school meeting.
Word was sent TO the village about a
mile away. A crowd was soon on the
premises which made quick work of
clearing the buildings. At Miss Con-
nor's and at Gerry's all movable proper
ty of any value was saved. Mr.. Hilan
saved his cattle but lost his horses and
most all his farm tools and household
goods, owing to the hour when the fire
was discovered which was about mid
night.
In addition to the above the houses
of Harry Blanchard, Parker, Flanders
and Charles Robe caught fire and only
timely discovery prevented their total
destruction.
DEFECTIVE CHIMNEYs.
In every instance these fires, except
ing Hilan's, which is surmised to be of
incendiary origin, were caused by de-
fective or over-heated chimney. Con-
siderable discussion has been evoked
among the people of the town concern
ing the best way to build chimney and
keep it clear of SCOT and also how to
control a wood fire in cold windy wealth
er so that the blaze will not draw
through the pipe into the chimney and
set it on fire or overhead it. 1t seems
to be the opinion of some that the big
cook stoves in use sit too near the CHM
ney, hence so many chimney fires.
From facts that have come under my
observation | have no doubt of the
soundness of such reasoning. Others
say that no chimney should be built
smaller than two and one-half bricks
square. The larger the chimney the
less liable it is to get over-heated they
say. Every chimney should have hole
near the bottom so that all accumula-
tions of SCOT can be removed and every
chimney that is used much should be
burned out at least once a year on a
rainy day when the wind is right to
blow the sparks away from ADJOINING
buildings.
AN OBJECT LESSON FOR BUILDERS.
All parties intending TO build new
chimneys the coming summer would do
well to consider the above hints and
build all chimneys without any slant or
twist if possible. Better pay the mason
for an extra days work rather than
economize by building small chimney
that may, sooner or later, cause serious
loss.-Cor. in New England Farmer.
