RATS SUPPOSED TO HAVE CAUSED FIRE. -The Langdon (North Dakota) Republican, speaks as follows of the bur ninof Robert Works barn, to which THE PosT referred briefly Inst week :-Robett Work had a disastrous fire at his farm in Harvey township last Monday morning, •when itis barn, 11 inettd of horses, all his haoese and a large quantity of hay were destroy ed. The origin of the file is not known, but it is thought to have started from rats gnawing at matches which had been left in a hat belong- ing to one of the men, It seems that all of the threshers, who were occupy ing the Karn, went toned shortly after 10 o'clock and the fire WAS not: dignnv- ered until after midnight. 2 or the boys were sleeping in the stalls below and the others were in, the hay mnw. One of the boys, who occupied a stall on the fii et floor, emptied his packet before retiring and left in his het some change and trinkets and a few matches. As there were a number of rats about the place that they must have started fire as it, isthought t to have been impossible that a match used to light a lantern ora pipe could have smoldered so long. The smoke was discovered by the men above as it carne through the openings left for feedhig the stock and they at once busied themselves in an attempt to save the horses, the two men that were with thehorses, were still asleep with the fire burning about them and in a few Minutes more it wnnld have been impossible to get, to theril. The fire spread very rapidly and it wee possible to drive only tt f'w of the 10 head of hoses and colts trona the barn. 8 of the 1101'ses that were driven out, ran back through another door and were burned, with 8 sets of work harness and about 80 tons of hay, The horses saved were a pair of draft hnrees, oae mare, a colt and a Shiver, the latter not being in the barn at the time of the ,fite, The cattle wets all in the pasture, The inert who occupied the barn, lost all of their clethes, except those which they had on and ohs of the teamsters was badly burned about the tome in an endeavor to lead his team to safety: At one time Mr. Work had all his horses ibsuted, ba he allowed the )olio to and die lb only urauco be marled lapse.ae $760 on the barn, Ho estimates his lose at about $8000, with only the insurance as above stated. The loss to Mr, Work k a very severe one, particular- ly. at This season. Neigh lines came to his assistance however and threshing was continued on Monday af.etnoon.

Wea- ther was beautiful, the roads good and the church was decorated with flow- ers and grain, looking very fine. There was e. very large congregation. Jas. and Mrs. McGill assisted the choir. Service was earnest and rever- ent throughout. Rev, Rural Dean Folheringham, M. A., of St. George's chinch, Goderich, was the preacher for the day and took for his text, "Ex- cept a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone but if it die itbtin ethfothmuch fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal" St. John 12:24-25. The lesson he brought home to all was that like the corn of wheat to accomplish anything good we too mast die, that is die unto everything selfish and sinful in all our mots to our neighbor, our country and one God. Not to put self first in evstything and think how much can I make out of this or that, regardless of the consequences to our fellow man, brit to live full of kind solos to all, to sacrifice self, even to he twilling to lose o1' lives, if by sit doing we will help the cause or Righteousness. He spoke of Germany being doomed because us she sought to become great at the expense of outer. Nations, uf• teely forsaking the great principle of doing unto others ea you would they should do unto you and this will hap- pen to any Nation or individual doing the same. It is righteousness that exalteth a Nation, a community, or a honenil a only by having rghteoine individuals can we have a righteous Nation. It behooves us all to die unto all that is wrong and live unto all that is kind and just and merciful. He spoke of one soldiers loosing their lives in the preset tear, the greatest sacrifice that anyone can snake, lay- ingdown their lives that Liberty, I',tuth and Justice might, prevail but the final charge was 'Amok when It g e spoke of i our Saviour Jesus .Christ;, who might have lived, but in order to accomplish the great work of redemp- tion, Hecame to do, died an agonizing death nn the cense, died that We might live.
