Godfrey x Son for this season. And while thev are entirely sat istied with their business this season, Mir. Godfrey is unable to make any definite statement as to whether or not they will re- turn here again next season. The freeze of d year ago killed the peach and plum trees in Michigan, and they will not have any of this fruit in that section until they can grow new trees. So 1t may be necessary for them to return to this section i'll order to get fruit to supply their trade. Mr. Godfrey thinks the canning business here could be made much more profitable if the people would grow gooseberries, plums, etc, in sufficient quantities to keep the factory going until the ripening of the tomato crop.

vomiting destruction, the scaling lad
derS were useless.
"Suddenly the great Hayes truck
swung round the corner from it's work
of rescue on the Eagle street side of
the building, paused near the centre of
the street, and the massive ladder be-
gan to build it's way up until it had
attained it's full height, when it was
found to reach but a trife above the
third story. The last reckoning of
hope seemed to have gone.
THE great ladder was being sway
ed backward and forward in the air,
and in toward the building against the
masses Of wires, while the unfortu-
nate man stood like a bit Of carved
relief work, fattened, motionless,
against the wall of brick, the frece
glare Of the flames beating upon him
like a calcium light. 1t seemed that
in a moment now he must fall, and be
crushed to death on the pavement.
'But suddenly, as the top Of the
ladder swayed back and forth in the
air, in to within ten or twelve feet Of
the building-back- in again, an
almost imperceptible movement Of
preparation could be discerned in the
body of the intrepid man. AS last
desperate chance, he was going to at
tempt the leap to the top of the sway
ing ladder almost two stories below
him, and far out from the building.

crowd and the fremen seemed to d1-

on Buffalo newspaper.
"The paper had been sent to press
one morning, and most Of the COM
positors, except the emergency men,
had hurried home, SO as to get to
sleep while it was still dark. Several
of us had remained behind to paste up
our strings. What? 'Strings?' Why,
strings of 'dupes. Proofs Of the stuff

and rushed up Washington street,
but by the time we had run the few
blocks, the big hotel was belching

pointed up to window five stories

window sill.
"There did not seem to be the
slightest chance for the man. With
the greatest de1iberation he stepped
out on the narrow stone ledge, and
carefully closed the window behind
him.
"This, we knew, could keep the
flames back for only few moments,
but in those moments he took a
chance to prolong his life which
struck the spectators almost breath
less. The window Lodges on that floor
were continuous along the side of the
building, projecting only trlfle over
five inches from the brickwork. Some
one had recognized the man now.
It was the assistant manager of the
Carlton Hotel. He had been caught
bv the fire on the fifth floor, while
making desperate efforts to warn
everybody of the danger. Coolly and
carefully he pressed his back close
against the wall, and with nothing
to cling to on the smooth brickwork,
and with no room on the narrow
ledge for scarcely more than his heels,
he edged his way, sidewise inch by
inch, away from the window. Hardly
had he cleared the opening before the
flames broke through the window
in great burst of sparks and smoke.
