brought into use Men and women work
ed like beavers for an hour and finally sue
ceeded in extinguishing the fire, although
the building was badly damaged The FIRE
originated in or near the selectmen's
room and it is thought from an over heat
ed stove, as there was fire there the
night before. The building was erected in
1889 by the late Henry \. Wizard, fol.
lowing the burning by lightning of the old
church which stood on the same ground.

Where Every House Has ITS Own
Totem Pole.

On a recent expedition to Alaska, says
writer in the March Strand Magazine,
we stopped at Alert Bay, an old Indian
village on Vancouver Islands, and | had
an excellent opportunity of photograph
ing the most complete collection of totem
poles to be found anywhere on the Pacific
coast They represent the family heral-
dies of the Siwash or Coast Indians, and
every house has its own totem pole, con-
sisting of figures of birds and animals
and other monstrosities rudely carved in
wood and quantity eolored. The top fig.
ure represents the crest of the owner o.
the house, the one beneath it that of his
wife, and the remaining ones that of his
wives relatives. As a rule there are only
three or four figures carved on totem
and only the totems of the greatest chiefs
have six figures carved on them. This
custom seems to have originated in the
transmigratory idea of the souls of men
passing into the forms of birds and ami
mails, and is interesting as showing that
the Indians had some faint idea Of a super
natural power. 1t will be remembered
that Longfellow, in his "Hiawatha," re-
fers to the ancestral totem"
