Albuquerque, n. NJ, April SIN one
of the hardest fought local campaigns
in years, the Democrats elected their
entire city ticket yesterday by majori-
ties ranging from 800 to rs. Felix
II. Lester, Democrat, was elected may
or over W. w. Strong, Republican, by
majority of 232; John B. McManus
was elected city clerk by a majority
of 1896 and Simon Stern, city treas.
urer by majority of 122.
The total vote polled was about
1000, including siXty-nine Socialist
votes. This city is normally Repub-
llcan and the result of yesterdays
election was surprising, 1t may be
safely predicted because of the actiy-
ity displayed by the saloon element
that under the new admin ration the
saloon licenses which were recently
raised will be reduced and the city
conducted on a wide open plan.

JAMES A. TATE.

James A. Tate of Shelbyville de-
livered a temperance lecture at the
courthouse Wednesday evening to
an appreciative audience.
The subject was handled in a log
ical and pleasing manner, much to
the delight and pleasure of those
present. Mr.. Tate is not only a
bright and scholarly speaker, but
is quite witty and graceful.
1t was pronounced the best lee
ture heard in Camden for years,
and if Mr.. Tate should decide to
again visit our little city, there is
no doubt that a large audience
would greet him, as many who did
not 60 out on account of the rain
storm have been made to wish
they had done so.

It was at the seaside that the lit- tie fellows met, the one from Boston. the other Philadelphia. Being just six and eight respectively, they did not as yet realize the great social dis tinction between them. They became fast friends.
 It was after a long, trying day on the beach that the quarrel began. Hot words tumbled over one another with furious speed.
 "0h, you're bughouse" said the little Philadelphian.
 For moment there was silence, Then a pained expression fitted over the Bostonian youngsters face. That was the last straw.
 With head held proudly and with stately mien he made as if to leave, and in dignified silence. But, human nature prevailing, he could not leave without one parting thrust.
 We don't say bughouse in Bos- ton; it isn't elegant We say beetle garage" uttering which he left the field of battle, swearing solemn oaths that in future he would keep away from sordid types of this character.

MILLION DOLLARS LOSS
Three Rivers, Que, Has Costly
 Conflagration.
BUSINESS PART SUFFERS.
Fire That Had It's Origin In a Stable Not Checked Until the Mosr of the Old Town Had Been Devastated by the Flames.

Three Rivers, Que, June 24.-Fan- ned by a high wind, a fire, which broke out shortly before noon Mon- day in stable, was not checked until the greater part of the lower town, containing the business section of the city had been consumed. Then, with the assistance of the firemen sum. moned by special trains from Mon- treal, Quebec, Sherbrooke, and Grand Mere, 1t was held in check. Almost every building of any consequence in that section of the city was destroy ed, including the postoffice. the city nall, every hotel worthy of the name With one exception, the fine building or the Hochelaga bank, and most all or the leading stores. Over 300 build. lngS were burned. The narrow streets or the town, and the inflammable na- ture of many buildings rendered the task Of the firemen an almost impos- slble one. Outside the town is To- cated the camp of the Sixth military district and soon after the fire started a thousand men were sent to help fight the flames.
 The local fire brigade was entirely ineffective when it came to coping With conflagration, and the soldiers rendered the best assistance they could, but their bucket brigade was not equal to the task.
 It was not until nearly four hours after the fire had assumed threatening dimensions that the organized effort by the fire fighters from the other cities was available
 Among the buildings burned besides those mentioned above are the St. James Angelican church, the oldest Angelican church built in Canada; the German Catholic church. Drolet, La Londe X Company's big department store; the Dufresne, Windsor, Do minion and Richelieu hotels, the tele- graph office, and the Bell Telephone company's exchange.
 The loss will be considerably over $1,OO0,000, and it is stated that the in- surance companies will be hard hit. So far no loss of life has been report but woman and two children are re- ported to have been badly burned.
