Another of Fulton's octogenarians
h;is been culled from time to eternity
during the past week. Thin time it
was one of Whips Cove's venerable
citizens In the person of Samuel S.

one daughter, survive him, namely,
Moses, of Thompson township, Asa,
Nathan, and Mrs. K. Vanclief, of

er citizens of the county; a man of
quiet demeanor, he always had the es
teem of ft large number of friends, and
raised a nice family. His remains
were followed to their last resting
place in the cemetery at the Sideling

SAWMILL lU'ltNllI).
Last Friday night a lire occurred
which destroyed Walter Comerer's
steam saw mill, located in Allen's
Velley about a mile and a half from
liurnt Cabins.
Kverytbing seemed all right when
the men retired to tm ir shanties to
sleep Thursday evening. One of the
men was awake and looked at bis
wati.'h at 1 o'clock. Next morning
when the men aros , one of them step
ped to (he door of the cabin, which
was on the side from the mill, and
saitl with a yawn, "!!oys I believe 1
smell smoke." lie walked to the end
of the shanty aud looked toward the
mill only to 11 nil that the ire had done
its work, and gone- nearly nut the
mill, shed, and about I'xiO feet of lum
ber was totally destroyed. The en
gine and boiler were not damaged to
any great, extent. The loss to Mr.
( 'onierer is about -1 (loo.
What seems remarkable was that
four men slept peacefully within twen
ty feet of the lire, not awaking until
morning: and Lloo.niiO feet of sawed
lumber was stacked all within Uventy
live yards of the lire and came
through it unharmed; although the
burnt leaves and grass showed that
the lire had extended nil around 'the
lumber pile.

As Spring comes on the necessity
for cleaning up Is made apparent.
During the long disagreeable winter
months the streets and lots have been
made the receptacle for all kinds of
rubbish, and if we would maintain the
reputation of a place where good
health abounds, this tilth must be
promptly cleaned up before decay sets
in. Let every householder appoint
himself a committee of one to look
after his own premises and see that
the surroundings are kept clean, and
let the borough authorities see to it
that everything objectionable is re
moved from the streets and alleys.
This will make our town bright and
attractive and is conductive to gooil
health.
