About 4 o'clock Thursday morning the saw mill of John McDonald was discov- ered on fire but it had reached such pro- portions it was beyond control and was soon in ashes. Fire is supposed to have been caused by a spark as steam was kept up to dry the stock of heading. The insurance amounts to between $4000 and $5000 on mill and stock. Fortunately there was a good share of the latter saved. The mill was well fitted out and was a good industry. With it Mr. McDonald deals in many commodities of service to the public. We hope he will rebuild soon. a w b 6 • • 0 0 • • • • • • Sole Agency for Holeproof Hosiery, we have all sizes in Holeproof 44•04.11.4•=•• vuoamoomomoloam Hosiery. Mailed Orders Promptly Filled.
