Miss Addie Frye had quite a Sc
rious accident one morning last
week on her way to school at
West Danville. When she was near
the old school house beyond the

The horse was caught in the Nc
Gill pasture.
Mrs. Maude Bernard and two
children visited at the home Of

The two children of Mr.. and
Mrs Seth Woods are quite sick

to the shower of sparks over the
adjacent houses. This was oc-
cupied by Rex Thomas and John
Mulcahey. Mr.. Thomas moved
out trunks and small articles.
The Dearborn and Bailey house
also caught in several places. Mrs.
4. c. Blanchard's roof, was burn
ed about four feet square. The
cupola of the p. G.. Blanchard
house, which has just been bought
by Ed. Morrill,, furnished another
thrill. Here the occupants were,
Mrs. Bradley and Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Harvey, Harold Miller hav-
ing moved out the day before.
The home of d. n. Dwinell, who
is in California, also caught, as
did the others on the same side.
One of the horses lost in last
nights fire was the knowing little
bay owned by r. d. Glib, which
was such a familiar figure on
Main street. 1t was nothing
strange to see the horse turn and
walk off across or down the street
to find uncle Jack Dowsell, who
he knew would have a bite of
apple or a stray lump of sugar
for him.
Louis Lapier in helping to get
the horses out of the burning
building was overcome by the eX-
element and fell unconscious into
the smoking barn.
The fire company are to be
highly commended for their
promptness and good judgment in
the efficient way they handled the
conf1agration which threatened
the city with disaster
The fire last night was without
doubt the most dangerous one
which has ever occurred in New
port, on account of the very high
wind. This fortunately died
down about midnight and a smart
shower came soon after which al
layed much anxiety. The fremen,
however, kept a close watch all
the rest of the night.
The Davis Coal and Transfer
Co., was insured for $1,000,
which covers partially the heavy
loss. Leon Labbe's house was in
sured for $1,000. 1t was the sec
ond time in a dozen years that the
Davis property has been destroyed
by fire.
Mrs. Kate Sullivan menaged to
save from the fire her dog, but alb
andoned a sum of money in her
home. The worst casualty was
that of George Mowry who was

to save from the flames. Rudolph

The friendly spirit which has
existed in the preliminary contest

action of James +. Estee of Mont

present deputy state treasurer
and the only other avowed candi-
