It quickly psasea from mouth to month that the Park House was burning, and upou an: val at the wens of the fire, it was plainly seen that the luumisome structure WM doomed. The fire began in the north - end, and the Ifosees-wese jest utheseed leaning from the eerth-wist tower. They ran rapidly al/il:st which hie- ing built et-tafwood, was readily licked up. The b u rning hotel reseatimil a fine sight. The lambent lamesleesst- airy foe Lai* ins hunt the many windows of structure lit up the itlrerst and was • none of awful grandeur. 'So rapidly did the tire attend, that much of the furniture in the hotel could nut be "yea. Bydint heard work and the exercise of good judgment the fire bri- gade prevented the fire extending to the old hotel, which Capt. Marlton was using as his winter quarters. A large amount of furniture was taken from this building but much of the stuff was badly dainag by members of the improvised salvage corp, whom seal outran their judgment. One num, for instance,endeavered to wrest a handsome marble numtlepiece and arch valued at 680 from its plain is the old house, and finding it contented, let drive wildly at it with an axe, smashing it in pieces. The Park House is completely destroyed. Nota stick is standing, only a heap of ashes marks the vot where the beautiful building once stood. The place was built by the Goderich Summer Hotel Co. about six years ago, st a cost of $6,000 but Was not completed. About two ys rs ago Capt. Marlton purchased it, and spent seine $4,000 more in fulishing the work A further outlay of $2,000 was made in various improvements about the place, principally in outhouse. The loss on the building Capt. Marlton esti- mates at $12,000 ; it is insured in the London, Liverpool & Mile Co., for .0. The whims furniture is valued at $6,000, and he places his loss at fully one half that; insured for $3,800 in the Western. The origin of the fire is unknown. No tire had been in the large hotel since the previous Friday, and then it was in the laundry room. In is a perfect myttery to the proprietor how the Owe caught. Messrs. A. Dickson and Miller did good service on the roof of the old build- ing, and it was in g great measure owing to their services that the tire did not ex- tend further. . Capt. Marlton feels his lees keenly. When *Iced if he would rebuild, he re- , marked that he would have to hear from some of the companies concerned to see how he is to go on. He would like to rebuild if able. The destruction of the building will be aloes o o the town, as many Americans found it a favorite summer resort. Dur- ing the warm menthe this year the place was crowded by wealthy families from the United States, and Capt. Marlton was Counting on a large business next year. The late fire proved the necessity of a hook and bidder company, and a well re- gulated salvage corps being organized in Goderich. 011MOSE. FAZE BOLD. Alb% Y.

Reneurati.-Mr. George Auderson,_. of Stanley, was in town on Monday. Mr. Anderson had jar returned from Da- kota on Saturday night, where he had been on a visit to .his son& He has two soneneated in Southern Dakota, near a place called Elm River, or Quincey, which is about 150 miles Routh of Emerson. He was very flinch pleased with the appear- ance of the country them. His sous have each a large farm and are doing well. The crops this year were very good. He brought with him samples of wheat and barley, both of which are fully as meld as any that can 1* grown here. The wheat was of the Lost Nation variety and yielded an average of 86 bushels per acre. It sells in ()tummy this season at 75 cents per bushel. The principal draw- backs of the country are, he says, bad roads in the spring, scarcity 44 good water and wood. The very best water can be procured, however, by boring to the depth of about 120 feet, and tubing the hole, and this can be done at a cost of about $1 per foot. There is usually scarcely any min in the fall, and during his visit the weather was delightful. The winters are cold, but not clisagreeably so.
