The Congregational Fair.

Although under the handicap OF a
snow storm followed by a twenty-below-
zero cold wave, the annual fair Of the
Congregational ladies, held at their YES
try last Thursday and Friday, was sue
cessful all around.
Decorations in the vestry were appro-
pirate to the Christmas season, and
while very simple were very pretty.
Ropes of evergreen were tastefully fes-
tooned from the ceiling, adorned here
and there with crimson bells, and
wreaths of the green hung in the win
dows.
The variety of articles on sale was as
usual, including things useful and
thiugs-well, ornamental, pop cord,
candy, etc. The flower garden gave you
for nickel whatever was on the root OF
the flower. In a wigwam Mrs. Agnes
Penfold examined the palms of Gus
toners, and told them fortunes which
were generally cheerful and always
amusing. A particularly interesting
souvenir of the fair, of which large
number were sold, was a glass paper
weight containing photographs OF the
church and the pastor, Rev. A. X. Bald
win.
Thursday evening an orchestra furnish
ed music, and Friday afternoon there was
a baby show. For all the Arctic weather,
about thirty-five healthy infants were
brought out to the show, and apparently
they enjoyed it; at any rate the rest OF
the people did. Each boy was present
ed with a toy sled, and each girl with a
dolls chair.
Friday evening the tables were filled
at the supper, and the seats were all &C.
cupied for the entertainment following.
The first part of the programme was
given BY the Schubert Quartette, and in
cluded two quartette selections, a solo
by Mrs. Wilson, duet by Mrs. Wilson
and Mrs Smiley, and a trio by Mrs. Viii,
son, Miss Thayer and Mrs. Smiley. AL
were heartily. appreciated by the au'
dience. To conclude the programme
the comedy "Two of Kind" was givon,
which, while it wasiof refined kind OF
fun, was uproariously funny from begin
ming to end, though it would not have
been so much so but for the perfect act
ting of the players. The audience was
in a roar throughout the piece.

This certifies that | have gone into
winter quarters at DR.. VIM. T.
Bridgham's in Buckfield. l came from
North Turner Sunday, the 2i, and am
happy to say that got here without
freezing to death.
1t is just 70 years ago to-day, the 4th,
that / popped my nose into the cold air
for the first time. But | have learned
during that time to keep my nose out OF
other peoples business when the wealth
er is as cold as it is to-day.
/ have not been in Buckfield long
enough to pick up much gossip. | saw
the smiling cOuntenance OF my friend,
Capt. Charles Prince, at the campfire at
North Turner recently. He locked we'll
and guess he felt well by the way he
acted. for he came there loaded with
interesting stories Of the civil war, and
went home loaded with baked beans and
other good things too numerous to
mention. -,
If there are any more dogs killed
about here, and can find out who kill
ed them will try and let you know
and perhaps can give you some iniorma-
ton about who killed Cock Robin.

SHOULDER BETWEEN FLOORS THAT
CAUSED FIREMEN MUCH TROUBLE.

About 9:30 Wednesday morning still
alarm was given for q fire in the build
ing on Market Square occupied below by
Aldrich's meat market and above as .
tenement by George G. Aldrich. What
fire there was was entirely inside the
partitions around the chimney in the
middle of the building, and the evidence
Of it was the thick smoke which was
pouring into the tenement above.
In few minutes it was thought that
the fire was out, but the smoke again
thickened up. The stove in the front
room of the meat market was moved out,
and it was then discovered what was
the probable cause of tho fire. The
room had been sheathed with hard pine,
and the funnel from the stove went
through the sheathing but failed by q
slight distance to connect with the
chimney. Undoubtedly sparks through
this narrow opening started the trouble.
More of the sheathing beside the
chimney was ripped off, and at the
opening thus made the crackle Of the
Ere off somewhere between the ceiling
and the upper floor could be distinctly
heard. Some of the sheathing was rip
ped off from the side of the refrigerator
in tho rear room Of the meat market,
and the floors up stairs were taken up,
and after long time the fire was dis
posed of. 1t was nearly or quite an
hour that the firemen were working on
this puzzling proposition, most of the
time trying to locate a concealed fire
which showed almost no blaze but was
smoke, During this time several
hand chemical extinguishers were
emptied into the depths between par
titions, ceilings and flooring, and the
lower part of the building was consider
ably wet down by stream from gar
den hose attached to the faucet up
stairs.
The building belonged to the estate of
Mrs. Evelina A. Jackson, and was insur-
ed for 5000. The actual damage by
burning was very small. Some damage
was done by smoke, both up stairs and
lown, and some by tearing up floors
and sheathing and wetting down.
The prompt discovery of the fire was
for although the building is
small, it is in the midst of thick clump
If large wooden buildings, and a fire
,nce well started there would mean seri.
Jus trouble.

The West Franklin correspondent OF

The West Franklin correspondent OF
the Ellsworth American tells the follow
ing story of a deer hunt in that vicinity:
1.-THE inhabitants were startled few
mornings ago when well-known resi-
dent came tearing through the village
nearly breathless. He managed to an
nounce that deer was swimming down
the bay, and that he wanted a gun and
cartridges. The local horse doctor join.
ed in the wild race for the shore, but fell
by the wayside. A young fellow was
found to row the boat After rowing q
mile 1t was discovered that the deer was
an empty barrel supposed to have been
thrown into the water by uptown resi-
dents after it was emptied of Boston ex-
press. The hunters, after serious con.
sultation, decided to fire few shots and
then announce that the deer had been
shot, but sank. But, alas! they found
that ten-gauge shot shells would not
work with thirty-twO Winchester.
Instead of the savory smell of cooking
venison in that immediate vicinity,
cigars are noticeable, and there is an
oppressive lull in sporting talk in some
quarters"

Box Rents Must be Paid in Advance
YOU CAN'T USE YOUR BOX A DAY
WITHOUT PAYING FOR 1T.

Uncle Sam is rather fussy sort OF
creditor, but he is business-like. The
box rents have heretofore been due on
the first day of each quarter in advance,
and ten days has been allowed patrons in
which to pay them. According to the
amended regulations of the department,
this ten days of grace is now to be abol-
ished. or rather, set forward into the
preceding quarter, the regulation regard
ing it reading as follows:
"Box rents must be collected at the
beginning of each quarter for the entire
quarter, bat no longer. Ten days before
the last day of each quarter postmasters
are required to place bill ION Form
1888 or 1888 Ley bearing the date of the
last day of the quarter in each rented
box. If box holder fails to renew his
right to his box on or before the last day
of quarter the box shall then be closed
and offered for rent and the mail will be
placed in the general delivery"
