Almost a conflagration occurred on Wednesday forenoon of last week at j Dr. Heilman's residence. As Mrs. Heilman was in the act of lifting the teakettle from an open gas cook stove the flames caught a loose canton flan nel sack she was wearing, and in an instant spread over her right arm and side and flashed up before her face. She quickly threw her apron over the flame and by means of vigorous rub bing and slapping succeeded in exting uishing it before any serious damage was done. Only for the extreme pres ence of mind of the good ladv and | prompt action, as a second's delay or an attempt to run and call for help, it would have resulted in loss of life and destruction of property. We, with all the many friends of this estimable lady . and family, are greatly pleased at her success in extinguishing the fire. Farmers' Institute at Driftwood.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1901. Electric Light Again. Extract from a letter from the Bur gess of Tunkhannock, to the Burgess of Emporium. Tunkhannock Borough, W. D. SAMPSON, Burgess. December 19,1900. E. O. BARDWELT., Emporium, Pa. DEAR Slß:— Yours of 13th received, enclosing slip of inquiries which 1 have tilled as best I coula. Any other mat ters I can help you in I am at your service In lighting your town do not make the mistake we have made, of allowing some outsider to furnish lights. BUILD YOUR OWN PLANT BY ALL MEANS. Yours, W. D. SAMPSON. An Open Letter to Dr. Bardwell on Electric Light Question. DEAR DOCTOR:— I admire you as the only advocate of electric light with courage to sign his name to any statement. Now won't you please tell us why you don't give us some figures besides your own. Why did you not give us the figures from Mr. Sampson as part of his letter? It is figures we want of actual work done in other towns. Your bookkeep er works for you for SSO per year, and , you put down the repairs to a3O arc 1 plant at S3O per year. When I left , school at Williamsport I took a book- i keeping course at night school and got • a job keeping books for an insurance . agent for a year and a half, for §25 per , mouth, and thought I was working i dirt cheap, and as to repairs; the man who pays very little for repairs makes , very little money. Please note the figures furnished by the secretary of council: Titusville, each light, $35 00 net Watsontown, each light, 48 00 net Dußois, each light, 05 00 net Milton, each light, 72 00 net or an average cost of $55.00 per year for each light after deducting all in come for lights sold to the people. At this rate 30 lights for us would cost $1,650 to be paid by taxes besides the interest and payments on the bonds. Dear Doctor, the Council will "per haps" have more figures for you next week.

The freezes of 1894 and 1895 killed most of Florida's orange trees down to the roots, but did not kill th« roots, and sprouts since 1895 have grown into bearing trees. So general is this fact that Florida's orange crop this winter is expected to be about 1,000,000 boxes, and will be twice as much next year. There is no orange equal to the Florida orange in flavor and delicousness, so that it commands a good price. This year's crop will bring, it is believed, about $1.75 a box. In this case the profit may be as much as in 1893 4, when the crop was 6,000,000 boxes. Califor nia oranges are good, but the Florida orange is better. According to Louis ville Courier Journal "the Florida or ange is the queen of the fruits. Ponce de Leon searched the peninsula over for the fabled fountain of youth with out success, but a wiser man would have been content with the first orange grove. The tropics produce nothing else so delicate, so refreshing, so pleas ing to the eye, so seductive to the nos srils and so ravishing to the taste."
