Al Revojr to Col, Hale,

The following from the Coaticook
(Que.) Observer will certainly be inter-
esting reading to our townspeople:
A very pleasant social event took
place in the parlors of the Methodist
church on Wednesday evening when the
people of Coaticook met together to do
honor and bid farewell to Col. Hale aud
his family, who leave this week for
their future home in Charlottetown, p.
f. |. s.
The parlors were beautifully decor
ated with ferns, apple blossoms, tulips
and large and small flags.
Col. and Mrs. Hale stood to receive
under Union Jack during the frs,
part of the evening. while the addresses
etc. were given from the platform, which
was draped with the entwined Union
Jack, and Stars and Stripes.
DR.. Shurtleff acted as Chairman and
called on the following gentlemen who
responded in their usual happy manner
Mr.. &. l.. Masten spoke of the great
benefit that had been derived BY the
church and its societies from the help
of Col. Hale and his family.
Messrs. f. F. Tomkins' and w. B
McCutcheon's remarks were directed to
wards the influence that Col. Hale hat
exertei as citizen.
Messrs. c. f. Lyman, f. w. Akhurs
and j. II. Knapp gave tribute to Col
Hale as a brother mason, and Mr.. l.. &
Moulton made few complimentary re
marks to the ladies.
Miss Jennie Snyder rendered piant
solo and Miss Effie White and Mr.. G
Sisco sang solos.
The ladies of the church served ic
cream and cake, and this brought to
close very pleasant evening, though
the reason of its calling, the leaving o
Col. Hale and family, was the cause 0
deep regret to all present.
The ex-editor OF the Observer thu.
comments on this event:
The reception given in the lectur
room of the Methodist church las
Wednesday evening to Colonel Hale an
his family was fitting tribute to re
spected citizens who are leaving us
Throughout his residence in Coaticool
Col. Hale, although citizen Of foreig
country, has entered heartily into tn
church life, and the social life of tn
community. His influence has been fo
good and his help aud assistance will b
missed in many ways when be depart
from us. 1t is pleasure to his friend
to know that although the Office here ha
been closed by the government the Co
onel was not left out in the cold but j
fact has as good or better position il
Charlottetown than he had here in Coat
icook.

Eleven Horses Burned


One Of the most serious fires that
has occurred in Great Bend for the
past year was that of the Bush
feed barn and it's contents Friday
morning, entailing loss Of some
thing more than $4,000. II was es-
pecially distressing on account of
the burning OF eleven head of good
horses, which were absolutely help
less, and persisted without even a
fighting chance for their lives.
The fire was discovered at about
5 o'clock, and the alarm was widely
given by both the bell and the
whistle. but before anyone could get
there the building was doomed. Fred
Cooper, who sleeps in the office, was
few minutes more would have per.
ished with the barn. AS it was, he
awakened by the alarm, and in q
was nearly suffocated with smoke.
Jumping out of the building in his
night clothes. he tried to get the
doors open and free the horses, but
it was too late. BY the time the
front door was forced open everyone
of the eleven head of horses were
past help. Most of them suffocated
In the smoke before the fire reached
them. Three Of the animals manag-
ed to break loose from their hal
tiers and made frantic efforts to
get out. One Of these, the faithful
animal driven for so long on the
Wells-Fargo express wagon, died with
his head against the door where he
had scraped great gashes on his head
trying to get out. Most of the an
imals were asphyxiated and burned
in their stalls, still tied to the
Managers
Heroic efforts were made to save
the horses and other contents of the
barn, but too late. The fire seems
to have started somewhere back of
the center of the building, and was
mass of flames when the firemen
arrived. Water was thrown on
plentifully, and adjacent property wa
uninjured. The Stiffness Of the air,
as well as the damp foggy weather,
was to the advantage of the fire
fighters. Ifthere had been a strong
wind there would no doubt have beef
a more serious conflagraion. The
new city hall is just across the stree
from the barn, and there were other
buildings still closer. If the fire had
occurred last week, while the smoke
stack at the pumping plant was down
and a wind nearly every day, the
danger would have been much worse
The barn belonged to VIM. Bush
and W. H. Zutaven, and was
worth probably less than a thousand
dollars. There was some insurance
on this.
\ There were several tons OF hay
in the barn, and other feed and stuff
| Most of the vehicles were saved with
little damage.
Mr.. Bush lost fine sorrel driving
horse, worth about 5000, team Of
mules worth $3.50 and four other hort
es worth probably SIS each.
Henry Lufts fine driving horse
worth $3.50, perished, as well as the
big Wells Fargo express horse, max
ing the loss on horses probably ST.
200. So far as known, none Of these
were insured.-Item-Rustler.

with the Rev. j. Edward Prryor, 70
take the chair OF science in the
Creek Seminole College at Boly,

amazement, he remains undecided;
We are hoping however, to have an
early decision from him. The Rev.
Mr.. Pryor Is undoubtedly technical
scholar Of no mean order, and his
services are in deman, both at home
and abroad as pastor, teache and
preache. The members Of his church
seem to look with much disfavor up
on our request for his services else
where. We sincerely hope that more
of our young people viii qualify in
the higher branches OF scientific
learning, so we shall not have the
unpleasant duty fgoing into the
churches to find suitable and compe-
tent material for our institutions OF
learning; for we fully realize that the
church has ffst claim upon our lead
ing men.
