Four Operatives Perished In Fire.

Dover, N. H., Jan. 28.-Dover's most
disastrous fire, which occurred to-day,
cost the lives of four and probably five
young mill operatives and a property loss
of half a million dollars. The fire de.
stroyed mill No. of the Coohedo Man
ufacturing Company. The bodies of
four boys, charred beyond hope of iden-
tifioation, were found in the smoking
ruins and as five boys are known to be
missing, it is believed that another body
will be discovered.
Several of the injured were hurt while
descending by ropes.
The fire broke out in the mill not long
after the 500 or more operatives had as
sembled for their days work Friction
from belt generated sparks which
lodged in a mass of cotton and the flames
quickly spread throughout the building.
The exits soon became blocked by a
struggling mass of mill hands and many
were obliged to jump from the windows.
Others secured ropes and descended to
the ground.
There were several daring rescues by
firemen. Four imprisoned men on the
fourth floor were taken out of window,
though not until they had climbed, one
by one, down a stout pole which the
tiremeD had made fast to the top of a
ladder too short to reach the window
sill. The total loss is S5OO,0OO, covered
by insurance.

LAuuABLr EFFORTS IN WORTHY CAUSE

Over fifteen years ago the ladies of
Oconee organized the Oconee Confederate
Monument Association, with the purpose
of erecting handsome memorial to the
Confederate dead of this county. Like
most all such organizations that depend
solely upon the free-will offerings Of the
people, unless the scope of their territory
ia wide and the purpose they seek to ad-
vance thing of the immediate present,
they have found their work tedious un-
dertaking, and have battled continually
against tagging interest and discourage
ments of every kind. Money has been
slow coming in-not that the cause is un-
worthy, not that the people feel one whit
less of pride in the past or honor for
those who fought for this country, where
we now live in peace and comfort and
prosperity, not from q lack of patriotism
from no cause at ali save the fact that
peace and comfort and prosperity too
often-as it has done in this case-breed
spirit of lethargy and forgetfulness.
In spite of the fact that this cause of a
monument to Oconee's dead of the Con.
federacy has Jagged and been forgotten
by many, it has never been dropped, nor
have the shadows of time obscured it
from the minds of the band of noble wo-
men who started the work, or those who,
coming after, have taken hold where the
hand of death has gently led away some
one from their racks. They have toiled
earnestly, with their purpose ever before
them, and their efforts should soon ripen
into the full fruition of their plans.
The ever-glowing spark has again been
famed into blaze, and the Monument
Association is once more actively at work.
We urge everyone who can aid in this
cause to do 30. An occasional donation
from everyone, be it only small, will soon
amount to great deal if sent to the trea.
surer OF the Association, and it will has.
ten the day when a fitting memorial shall
stand on the Court House square to show
to the world that we have not forgotten
those who faced the fiend of battle that
we might live in happiness and at peace
with all the world
Let every citizen lend hand and assist
these noble women in raising the funds
for this grand purpose. No contribution
80 small that it will not increase the
funds and help to shorten time until We
shall see standing in our midst fitting
memorial to departed worth.
