seen for many years occurred EIday night

the old international Lumber company.
now owned by Prouty 4 Miller, was
burned to the ground An alarm from
Newport aud West Derby brought the en-
tire 6re-iishting apparatus Of both villages,
and it was with great difficulty that the
boiler house and saw mill were saved.
The chemical engine did good work
among the lumber piles putting out small
fires. The fire started in the south end of
the building, and as there was a strong
wind from the south it spread rapidly. The
building was used principally for storage
and contained 100000 feet of finished
hardwood flooring, besides other finished
lumber and small amount of machinery
The loss was estimated by one of the
firm to be nearly $l0,en0 There was no
