I ponder oftentimes, when l hear the

Which ring when day is over for the

When the burden has been lifted, and
the last prayer is said,
How they rest from their labors.
Where is the cool green grass, that

To lie down beside still waters, and
forget past pain,
And fear no more the pressure of I'M

But to rest from their labors?
Are the whispers of those trees any

Which soothed them here below in

ALL they find Gods perfect peace in
those islands Of the blest,
Where they rest from their labors
Sometimes in sunset CLEANS, or in pic

I see them in Gods garden where the

And, ali! the lovely music that is fill

While they rest from their labors.

No summons may disturb them, for

since Tuesday evening when the annual
meeting was held there. The heating ap-
paratuS was a steam heat plant of ap-
proved construction, the furnace being
located in the north side of the building
and not near where the flames were first
discovered. The origin of the fire Is there
fore a mystery and may never be known.
One theory advanced by the townspeo:le
was that some chemicals left in the lab
oratory had ignited. Prof. Howe. Irin-
ciral of the school said there were no
articles in the laboratory that could pos
silly have produced fire by spontane-
Gus combustion.
The structure was finished in 1869 and
cost 100000. 1t was three stories high and
about a0NSO feet square with quite elabo-
rate cupoa and cellar under the whole
building with apartments for coal and
every convenience for first class educa-
tioual institution
Besides the building and fixtures it Is
estimated that books and supplies worth
a lea st $4,000 were also destroyed as moth
ing was taken out. The insurance is said
to be about $4,000.
The trustees have not decided what
course will be pursued but some provis-
ion will be made to continue the schools
in the town hall or other building If any
can bc obtained for the purpose, as II VIII
take many months to rebuild the burned
structure.
While this fire was at its height fire
broke out in a barn on South street be-
longing to Robert Rodgers, half mile
or more away. 1t was so IA" advanced
when discOvc:o. that the fire department
mado no effort to cXtinguish it. Tho barn

contents We're a total loss. This fire Is a
mysterious one as 1t was impossible for
sparks from the school house to have been
blown there. At present accounts this
fire is believed to have been OF inccndiary
origin.
During the fire the Fuller house which
was nearby caught fire by flying sparks
on the roofs but was soon put out by thu

sive use of intoxicants. A large lumber

noise and numerous rows here.

Much deferred Easter business was
transacted during the last few days. and
some sections report satisfactory result
but at many points the weather is not yet
normal and on the whole the seasons
trade thus far compared unfavorably with
last years volume. Manufacturing re-
turns continue conflicting; iron and steel
plants are gaining ground, footwear ex-
hibiting the natural reaction from an I'M
precedented production in 1903, while tex
tile mills have much idle machinery and
little forward business to encourage opera
ton. Lumber and building materials are
in better demand. although floods at the
Vest and labor troubles at the East re-
tardcd structural work to some extent.
Foreign commerce at this port for the last
week shows a. decrease of 81 ,222,9J in
value of exports and gain of 81 .aS9 in
imports as compared with the correspond
ing time in 1903. Bank exchanges at New
