Anothkr i.aro Firr Frtlino's Mammoth
Btorr Drstrotbd. On Thursday morning J
about 8 o'clock, Are wat discovered In the Mam
moth Store room of Jno. W. Frlllnfr, on Market
street, and an alarm wns raised which soon be
came general throughout the town. The Steam
Fire Engine Company wai on the ground In a
short a time ns possible, but the Are had gained
too much headway to be checked speedily In He
ptogress. The Are originated about the centre of
the building on Hie second floor, and spread ra
pidly over the Itisldti of the store room. There
being a large amount of cotton goods near the
centre of the building the flames were brought to
perfect fury. In n very short time they bad
spread over tlie etitlre building reaching from
Market street to Ihe alley, a depth or 200 feet,
enveloping the large stock of goods, a Tory small
part of which was saved. The entire building
was gutted, Including the storehouse. From the
store room the Are extended to tbe dwelling
house which also became ft prey to the flames,
the furniture, having previously been removed,
was saved, but greatly damaged. At this junc
ture ttle Court House stood In Imminent danger,
and had It not been for tho steamer, would have
suffered great Injury If not destruction. On tho
east side or the store building the Arc reached the
oflice of Messrs. Masser and Englc, bankers,
which wns almost entirely destroyed. Adjoining
It was the Rinslc nnd picture store of n. B. Mns
scr, and the Masser buildings occupied by 8.
Foust, Snr., ns a dwelling nnd hat and enp store."
All tho furniture wns hastily removed. The
books nud furniture of L. H. Ease's law office,
In the samo buildings, were removed. Tho roof
of part of the Mnsscr buildings was burned off,
and the building much damaged by water. The
musical Instruments, c, of H. B. Masser, also
sustained considerable damage by removal. The
loss of Mr. Frillng is cptlmated at about f 22,000,
on which thero Is an Insurance of $13,000. The
or'lrln of the Are Is unknown.
The loss of II. B. Masser, on hulldln; nnd
store, will probably reach fSOO, which Is fully
covered with Insurance. 8. F iusl's loss Is about
2).
The members of the Mcam Fire Engine Com
pany lire deserving of the highest praise for the
manner In which the) nnducied themselves on
this occasion. They were under command of
Mr. John Ca.lwnllader, assisted by E. M. Buelicr,
und it gives ns pleasure to state that we have
never seen better order displayed on similar oc
casions, here or elsewhere, tfcaii was exhibited by
the boys of the Steam Fire Engine Company on
Thursday morning. We very much regret that
Vlie Hook nnd Ladder Company wns not fully
prepared to conic out with their apparatus, which
was owing Ki the difilcultles they have been in
boring under In not having a house to meet in
to perfect an organization. Several attempts
have lately been made to get a lull meeting for
the purpose of organizing, which failed on ac
count of the poor ultendaiice, attributable ton
lack of interest taken In the mat ter by a majority
of I lie members. We hope that on next Monday
evening there will be n lull turn out by all who
to heroine ucllvi members, so tbnt the
company may be fully organized. That It Is
highly Important that an early organization
i should take place, was shown nt the lulu lire.
Much assistance might have been rendered had
' the company been organized.
M. Ross Urmi-rult has creeled a counter in
the front part of the post olliec building from
w hich he will sell papers aud peilodicals, letter
stumps, envelopes and paper. The American

business.
The Faiii. Every furmcr In the county can
have something to exhibit nt the Union Agricul
tural Fair at Suubury. See the liberal premiums
olfcrud In Stiothor part of this paper. It will bo
the largest fair ever held in this part of the
State. The best horse-r.ieing of the season will
come off at that time, as some of Ihe best blood
ed horses in the country uru already entered.
A C'oi.ottwi Gnu. Shot. A colored girl named
Fietta Earust, was shot uud instai.tly killed, on
Thursday last, on tho Turnpike, between Tea
ger's and the Ilg Mountain, near Mt. Carmol by
u Wcli-h boy named Fred Davis. Davis Is about
15 years of uge, and ullegeg that the shooting
was accidental. It Is rumored that ho and a girl
of bud repute Were in company with the girl on
a shooting and feNbipg excursion, and that the
shooting was lntciitiounl. Davis wus arrested
6u the day following by constable Sttllwagner and
tV. Davis, and brought before Esquire Lewis of
Uu Cariuel 'jorough, who made, out a coiumlt-
j mcnt and banded the prisoner over to Sherilf
; Rothermcl, who was in I hut reglou ut the lime,
i aud who brought him to jail at this place.
I Ant person who desires the Job of putting In
i about u doxeo window panes in the Masonic

I . As 6ur neighbor Is occupying the Masonic

We hope be will wait until after the election if
ho flnds it necessary to knock out window paucs.
