respects to Admiral Sebree. Soon at
terward the Tennessee swung around
and headed in through the channel, her
guns replying to the salute that was
fred by the shore guns. She was fol-
lowed by long line Of cutters and
naphtha launches, for the captains OF
the other cruisers were hurrying aboard
the flag ship to get instructions, orders
and information from the squadron
commander as to coaling, berths, etc.
Notwithstanding the earlier hour OF
arrival, the three blasts of the whistle
announcing the approach of the cruisers
brought out a big crowd of people, who
occupied every vantage point along the
shore from Diamond Head to the Naval
wharves. Guards, however, cleared the
wharves of all spectators until after
the vessels had locked, Captain Berger
and his band being the only civilians
allowed on the wharf. When the shore
lines were thrown over, the band
burst out at top pitch with the Star
Spangled Banner.
The vessels do not present the same
bright and clean appearance that they
have presented on former occasions
when they have been here, for they
wear now the grim drab that makes
them look even more formidable than
formerly.
The second cruiser to come inside was
the Washington, which went to the
Oceanic dock.

Speaking OF the governor question. we
wonder why the Brattleboro Reformer

John Weeks of-Middlebury and John Al,

have their friends, many al whom think
that their man is the best fitted for

There is also G. H. Stearns Of John

both Of whom are Of gHbernational size
and at least as well fitted as some of
those who have been mentioned. This
mentioning business II all farce, any
way, unless it should happen that some
desirable candidate might be suggested
who would otherwise be overlooked
There is ExMayor Bigelow OF Burlng
ton, for instance, who has had a train
ing that well fits him for the governor

fled than Deacon Smith Of the same city
who has been suggested, and is man
who would arouse some enthusiasm
among the voters. In spite of the
strong Democratic majority in Burling-

once elected mayor Of Burlington and
came within score OF votes of winning
again this year. lie is a careful stu

die Dorey, Is years old, was horribly
burned last night at the home Of her

leaving her daughter alone On her
way back she had stopped to make some
purchases, and in coming out of the
store heard her daughter scream. Hur-
rying home she found her at the top
Of the stairs with her clothing in flames.
She tored the burning clothes or and
teiephoned for medical assistance Dr..
T. M. Worthen Of Ashland was rushed
TO tile scene in an automobile.
II was found that the child was
mass Of burns from head to foot, even
the hair being burned from her head
She is in an extremely critical condition,
with small hopes Of recovery.
II IS thought that the girl was at
tempting to kindle FIRE in the kitchen
stove with kerosene oil, as the can was
found on the floor with the bottom
blown out.
The child had in her fright run from
one room to another, starting fires in
several places. In the bedroom the bed

Every day of his life, and in many
little ways, Robert Murdoch discharged
some portion Of his hereditary obligation
and felt the responsibility of that PEE
culiar relationship which the ante

people. He was not their master, but
the Almighty had endowed him with
greater gifts than theirs. Noblesse
obhge.
@Well, Uncle Andrew, I'm glad to see

spoke to the old negro who came in,
leading small boy by the hand Uncle

remaining few
Mars Robert, please, sub, take dis

LACK OF WATER.
Caused Failure to Save Big House From
Destruction.

Milford, Mass, May 22.--The large
and beautiful colonial mansion till re-
Gently owned by George Otis Draper,
nephew Of the governor Of the common
wealth, was burned to the ground last
evening by what appeared to be but a
slight blaze when discovered. The
flames, however, soon got completely be.
yond the control Of the fire department,
owing to insufficient water pressure,
due to the high situation Of the house,
which was upwards Of 800 feet above
the general level Of the surrounding
country.
The house was bought Of Mr. Draper
within a week by Hon. Edward l.. Os-
good OF Boston, ex.state senator. He
had not yet moved into IL, so the house
was destitute Of furnishings, but a lot
of repair work had been done on it
within a few days, painters, decorators
and plumbers having been engaged on Il
for several days. The new owner was
to have moved into it June 1. The loss
is probably $4,000. II was insured for
$4,000, mainly through Boston agen-
cies
The FIRE was discovered soon after 0
in the kitchen i, in the second story,
usually occupied BY servants. A man
familiar with the house says that it
undoubtedly started from defective
electric light wires.
An hour after the blaze was discov-
cred it was thought to be under com.
plete control, but frequent bursting Of
the hose under extra pressure applied
TO carry the water to such a height
allowed the flames to get new headway
and soon destroyed every vestige Of the
building. Both the Milford and Hope
dale FIRE departments worked on tho
fire, and not less than seven 5O.foot
sections Of hose burst under the unus-
ual pressure put to it.
