The BA|LY OIL CLOTH
SHOPS BURNED
C. Nj. Bailey Was Once Similarly &C.
cupied in Business in SkOwbegan

The confagration at Winthrop last
week in which the entire oil cloth
manufacturing plant of C. M. Bailey
Sons G. Co. was burned, recalls the
days when similar business was con-
Quoted by the Baileys in Skowhegan.
Remnants of their factories still are
in existence in the vicinity of Baptist
Hill The fire at Winthrop was
caused it is thought by friction from
the slipping of machine knife in
the paint shop which had recently
been constructed, the flames leaping
along the strip of cloth into quaint
ity of combustibles placed in the
room. Beside the manufacturing
plant a dwelling house owned and
occupied by Frank Pettengill and an
unoccupied house owned by C. NJ.
Bailey were destroyed, the total loss
being more than 100000. Several
other buildings on Royal street
caught fire, including the Maine Cen
trail railroad station, and freight shed
and the residences of Cyrus G. Wood,
Mary Bates, Albina Webster and Her.
bert G. Boulton, while the dwelling
house of Edward A. Jones was for
some time in danger.
The firm of c. M Bailey & Sons
Co, is one of the best known oil
cloth manufacturers in New England
and was started by c. M. Bailey OF
Winthrop some so years ago, who
with his sons and sons-in-law formed
a partnership. c. M. Bailey retired
from the business two years ago a
rich man, his sons continuing the
work Twice before the firm has suf-
fered severe losses by fire and has re-
built and it is said that they will
again erect necessary buildings tc
carry on the business. Temporarily
however, it was expected the further
output will be arranged by placing
machines necessary in another mill at
the other end of the town where the
company maintains a factory.

Rheuma Drives 1t from the System

Every since Rheuma has been sold
