MAYORS VETO KILLS BUILDING
ORDINANCE.

There seems to be misunderstand-
ing of our report of the proceedings
of the last Council meeting in regard
to the Mayors veto of the Building
Ordinance.
Our statements were correct and
were so reported and printed-"That
a motion to receive and file the veto
communication carried by vote OF
to 2. That after the communica-
ton had been received, motion to
accept the Mayors veto resulted In
vote of 4 to 3 against"
This action did not affect the veto
at all, as it required a two-third vote
to carry the question over the Mayors
veto. The vote simply showed that a
majority of the Council did not ap-
prove of the Mayors action.
We think the Mayor did right to
veto the ordinance, but in our report
failed to comment on any of the pro-
ceedings of the meeting. The stu
alton, as we understand it now is
that I'D to this time we are still op-
Grating under the old Building ordi-
nance.

"To the act of classifying the time by
setting the clocks 30 minutes or 60
minutes fast there is very little techni-
cal objection. Records of events which
ought to be made in absolute time. SO
that the instant of happening could
be located precisely at any future date,
should still be made in one of the ex-
listing definite systems. Interest in the
precise time when an ordinary event
of daily life occurs vanishes very quick

science we almost never go back d

GUILDHALL SWEPT
BY SERIOUS FIRE
Several Buildings, Including Central
House, a Landmark, Destroyed
Loss $4,000 to S30,000

LANCASTER, \. H., Feb IA de-
structive fire ragged Monday afternoon
in the heart of the village of Guild
hall, VT, just across the Connecticut
river from this town, burning the old
Central House, a noted landmark, and
FIVE or six other buildings, and causing
a loss estimated at between $4,000 and
$4,000.
The fight against the fire was made
under great difficulties, with a high
wind blowing out of the northwest and
with the temperature 20 degrees below
zero. The snow, however, covering
roofs, was favorable factor in the sit
uatiop, and helped to save the whole
village from destruction
Rev. Mr. Vance, pastor of the Guild
hall church, discovered the fire about
go o clock 1t started in the Central
House, and is believed to have been
due to a defective chimney. The house
was an old stage tavern, built in 1852
Recently it had been conducted as q
lodging house by Charles Richardson
1t was substantial three story struc-
ture.
Mr.. Vance rang the church bell tc
| give the alarm, but under the condi
tions, little could be done to check the
! flames, which spread rapidly from tn,
| old hotel to a set of buildings owned
| by Benjamin Ford One of the tene
ments in the two-story house was oe
cupied by Carl Hayes, some of who's,
belongings were saved
At this point dynamite was resorteC

From this point on, the townspeopl
had the better of the fight with tn
fire. Help was sent to them from Ian

Although a considerable amount o
| personal property was saved from tn
burning buildings, the fire comes as
big blow to town of 600 people.
