B. c. Woolen Mills
Destroyed by Fire.
(From Boz Elder News.)

The Brigham City Wooden Mills
building was completely destroyed by
fire Tuesday forenoon.
The fire Is supposed to have start.
ed from spark caused by the ma
chine used for making cotton and
wool bats, owned by Mr.. John And
erson and run by Frank Minson. 1t
was kown that such a thing might
happen and a bucket or two Of wat
err was kept constantly on hand In
case of emergency, but this time 1t
got the best Of them. The machine
which tears up the rags from which
the bats are made revolves very rap
idly and II the teeth come in con-
tact with any metal, like nail or a
needle for instance, 1t Is likely to
spark, and II a spark touches those
bats they burn like powder.
The alarm was sourded promptly
and the boys responded as readily,
but there are no water mains in that
vicinity and they had no engine or
pump, so were powerless to check the
flames which spread rapidly to all
parts Of the building. It was the
biggest and hottest fire we were ever
permitted to see
Mr.. Minson. who was running the
machine worked so hard to put out
the fire and save some Of the pro-
perty that he became exhausted and
had to be helped to a place Of safety.
His condition was SO serious that a
doctor was sent for, Drs. Harding &
Harding responding. His heart thr-
eatened at one time to stop and re-
storatives had to be applied. He Is
still badly unstrung.
The building was owned by the
Brigham City Wooden Mills company.
q corporation composed principally
OF local people. They lost heavily as
the building carried no insurance.

extent. That Is, three Of the stock

In the building.
Mr.. John Anderson's loss will per-
haps not exceed $1,000. He carried
$500 insurance on the machinery.
He had about 500 worth of rags on
hand and about 5000 worth Of bats
on which there was no insurance. A
good many Of the rags were saved.

PENNSYLVANIA GRIT.
A Scene just Before the First Battle Of

Editor National Tribune: We were
near Berryville just before the Bull Run
battle, had seen but few of the rebels.
and were anxious to have spat with
them We were all in good condition,
and expected to have a brush at any
time. Suddenly We were ordered out,
and supposed we would start for VIM
chester. To our astonishment we We're
formed in a hollow square. An officer
rode to the center and addressed us.
/ believe the officer was either FitZ John
Porter or perhaps Pap" Thomas. He
went on to say that Johnston, who was
holding Winchester, had SO much IN
fantry, so much artillery and Sc many
cavalry while we had so little infantry
and cavalry and I believe he did this
to try our fighting proclivities. as our
time was about to expire. He concluded
by requesting those who were willing to
stay Is days longer to come to Shout
der-arms. Everyone in the command
came up with the old Scott shoulder
arms with a whack, and one comrade
held up two muskets. Who says the
Pennsylvania had no grit? I fully be-
lieye every man in the command would
have volunteered to stay three years Or
longer if required. notwithstanding

wards Harper's Ferry, and finally took
