Albany Herald:-On Friday
evening at Plainview the Advance
thresber owned by Whealdon,
Wheeler & Blatchford was burned
as the result of hot box. When
the fire was discovered the entire
interior of the machine was in
flames. The loss is between 500
and $500. The machine had just
started on the second seasons run
and the loss at this time of the year
is most serious one to the owners.
Work was begun this morning
on the Taylor brick. the contract
for which was awarded to Charles
Heckert few days ago. The con-
struction of the walls and founda-
ton has been sublet to Mr.. Ham.
nell of Albany. The foundation
and walls in the rear of the old
wooden building that now occupies
the site will be built first, after
which the old structure will be
hauled off to the boneyard.
The cement sidewalk ordi
nance has had an electrical effect If
securing the construction Of new
wooden walks. The rush to put il
new walks before the cement ordi
nance should go into effect has beer
spectacular, aud with the result
that the sawmill is overwhelmed
with the demand for sidewalk lum
Der and cannot fill orders as fast a:
presented. Yesterday there were
orders for 1000 lineal feet more O.
sidewalk, than there is sidewalk
lumber in the yard. Walks are be
ing built along unfrequented street.
and in obscure places where it i
not likely the owner ever thought
of building a walk until the cemen
apparition stalked into his startled
presence.
