 Two large barns, a large tobacco shed, an ice house and several smaller sheds attached to the barn, and their contents, consisting of hay, straw, grain and farming implements, be- longing to Alfred O. Thrall, were to- tally burned last Thursday night. The place was located in Vernon Gen. ter, about three miles from Rockville. The fire originated in the tobacco shed. which was partially filled with hay, and is thought to have been of incendiary origin. The loss is esti- mated at about $6OOO, with partial insurance.

 Miss Gussie grabbed at the horse, but the bad man was too quick for her. He raised his hat and smiled as he rode away, and she sat down on stone and cried She was still crying when the sheriff and four men came galloping up and plunged down into the gorge They were back in five minutes, and the official asked:
 "Young woman, have you seen any, thing of a man around here this morn ingT'
 "He rode off on my horse half an hour ago." replied the girl.
 "So he lived through it?''
 "But the men had no right to jump his claim when he was ill., said Miss Gussie in a spirited way.
 "Jump his claim! Do you know who the feller is?''
 "N-not exactly, but he was very nice. He had to take my horse to get away from you"
 "Hear her talking. That feller is Bob Hill, the most notorious highway robber in four states. You must have nursed him up and helped him to va moose, and I don't know but what shall have to hold you as accessory"
 That evening it was bright moon- light, and Miss Gussie was sitting well away from the camp watching the last rays of twilight fade into night. By and by young MT. Caswel came over and took her hand and said: a My dear Gussie, the fourth occa- sion has arrived. I know I am not fit to lick up your tracks in the dust. but
 You can consider that we are en- gagged" said the girl as she thought how mean 1t was of the stranger not to have made her at least tiny pro- posal before he gobbled her horse and rode away-just enough of a proposal to enable her to brag about it among the other incidents of camping out.

The Elmwood hotel on Woodstock hill in North Woodstock was burned to the ground yesterday, but through the great efforts of the people there- abouts the outlying buildings and Woodstock academy were saved. The hotel was of wood and had accommo- dations for about 100 summer guests. MT. Linderman, the proprietor, went to the attic to examine the water tank, carrying with him 8 lighted lamp, which exploded. The oil set
 fire to MT. Linderman's clothing, and he jumped into the tank and extin- guished the blaza on himself. but the burning oil seized hold of the wood work, and in few minutes the entire structure was ablaze. Most of the contents were saved. The loss is several thousand dollars.

Enterino a Mosque.

The popular idea that people are obliged as d. sign of respect to take off their shoes before entering a moguue is incorrect This is done sim ply because the floors of the mosques are covered either with mats or car pets. which must be scrupulOusly clean, as during their devOtiOns the faithful touch them perpetually with their foreheads. If you wear galoches, or overshoes, you have only to remove them and boldly walk into the mosque in your boots Another popular error connected with the mosques is the be lief that. according to the Koran, Chris tians must not be allowed to enter them. This is absolutely opposed to tho teaching of the Koran, which de- clareS that any man or woman may en ter q mosque. be his religion what it may.

Superior Court.

At a session of the superior court on Thursday, William B. Martins appeal from the finding of the rail road commissioners was withdrawn. The case of the Kingsbury Box and Printing company against Lydia Mason ct al. was heard. Judge Wheeler took the papers and reserved his decision. The case of William H. Prescott against O. F. Raynes was settled.
 Yesterday Daily, the horseman, was the plaintiff in 8 suit. Father Bill' sues on a note given ten years ago by Michael Daly of Bolton. It was for 5000. and as only a portion had been paid, he seeks to recover the balance, asking for damages of $75O. The claim of the defense was that the note was conditional on two horses which the defendant bought from the plaintiff earning enough in winnings to pay for themselves, which the de- fense claimed they had never done. Michael Daly denied having paid $50 on the note as late as last summer, claiming that he had not made 8 payment in several years. as the horses did not earn the money as agreed. Judge Wheeler reserved his decision.
