Potatoes Burn with Loss in Neighbour

Hose 4 of the Waterville fire depart
ment responded to a fire in an Eastman
heater car in the Maine Central yards
as $50 Z. M, Saturday, which resulted
in a loss of about $500 The fire is
thought to have been started from the
kerosene oil heater of the car, and
spread up through.
A large part of the potatoes contained
were either burned, or became oily, oil
were deluged with water. so at best, the
whole of them will only be seconds here
after. and the car was pretty well gut
ted. 1t was taken away from the sheds
near which it had been standing, and
threatened the same, and taken off in the
yard by itself. The car will have to be
rebuilt.

WORSE THAN THE EARTHQUAKE

A special dispatch to the Tampa
Times says:
New York, Jan. "a wire TO the
New York Produce News from Red
lands, Cal, says:
after a thorough canvass Of the
situation growing out Of the recent
freeze, your representative finds that
the financial damage sustained there
from is estimated as much greater
than that of the Frisco earthquake
disaster The growers are respondent
and the situation is most serious. Not
single section escaped-Riverside
Redlands, Highlands Glendora, Co
vina, San Diego. The story of extreme
low temperatures, frozen fruit and
damaged trees Is the same everywhere
throughout the citrus belt The tenn
peratures everywhere in the citrus belt
went to eighteen or lower. The gem
eral opinion is that there is not a first
class orange left in the state. At least
80 per cent of the crop that was on
the trees when the freeze came Sun
day and Monday nights is worthless.
No such condition ever existed before
in the citrus growing industry Of this
state. Any general plan of action may
be abandoned. All smudged groves are
gone as well as those that were unpro-
tected. The growers have practically
given up hope The east will have to
take frosted oranges or get none from
California. No lemons were saved"

He was sentenced on

RESOLUTIONS OF SYMPATHY

Whereas, God in his great wisdom
has seen fit to remove from our midst,
by death, Mr.. Thomas Gary, eldest son
of our beloved sister and former pres
ldent. Mrs. Fannie r. Gary; and,
Whereas, in the death of her son and
first born our sister has sustained a
grievous loss, one that almost severed
the slender thread of her life now
passing into the shadows of eventide
of a long and useful life.
Therefore, the members of Dickson
Chapter L. D. c., sympathize most
deeply with our dear sister and her
children in the loss of their son and
brother and that the kind heavenly
father has done that which is best for
her, although we may not be able to
see it in this light with our mortal
eyes Mr.. Gary was in his disposition,
a man always ready to do a good deed
or commit a kindly act, and had many
friends who knew and loved him
This chapter asks our bereaved sis
ter and family to look TO our Savior
for comfort who sustains us through
our lives. Our hearts go out to the
aged mother in her sorrow and feeble
condition, and we bow our hearts in
sympathy and sisterly love for her.
Resolved, That a copy of these res
oIutfons be sent to the family, the local
papers and a copy be spread on the
minutes of our chapter.
