FAREWELL Snstetox.--On Sunday
morning last Rev. Litt preached his
farewell sermon to a large congrega-
tion, taking as his text IL Cor. 13-11.
In the evening a special program was
given by the Choir and the Ladies' Aid.
The program consisted of solos, duets,
and the reports of the officers of the
Ladies' Aid. The solo by little Miss
Peavl Heist, in which_ she gave some
of the troubles of the young musiciau,
was quite amusing. We are sorry to
have Mr. Litt move from here and we
extend a hearty welcome to the new
pastor, Rev. G. D. Demme who will
preach his first sermon next Sunday.

sented with a well-filled purse, thus

Cooperville had been built up around
the saw milli of John Cooper, and was
a Hail:in., village of twelve houees and
D. store. l'he Cooper saw mills were
also in the village. To -day the whole

The entire village has dieappeared,and
some hundred people ;we rendered
homeless. • The couutry is very dry,
and the &might was taken advantage
of tn Imre out it slashing. The fire

obliterated it. Four teams were used
to plough a break in the path of the
lire, but the huge voltunes of smoke
and fire eame rushing on at such a rate
that the Men were forced to eut the
horses loose and seek safety. The hors-
es went to their stables and perished.
Fortunately all the inhabitants were
warned, and there were no fatalities.
The farmers in the vicinity are taking
care of the homeless, aril supplies et'
food. have been forwarded front Chat-

the mill and nearly all the staves and
logs piled in the yard were destroyed.
Mr. Cooper, the heaviest loser, cannot
estimate his loss, but puts it at over
$400,000. The residence of W. AsMille,
ex -warden of Kent connty,was burned.
to the ground this afternoon. Only
the piano was saved. The loss is about
$4,000. Cause unknown. The resi-
