Disastrous Fire. --Fire, !which was
discovered Tuesday night about eleven
o'clock, caused 54100,000 damage to
the plant of the National S )pbuild-
ing Company, on :Maitland street,
The flame; were first noticed in the
boiler shop by trainee:n, and although
a 'prompt response was trade by the
fire'department nothing could be done
but 'prevent adjoining buildings from
catching fire. The building was of
frame con.,,.ruction, and in addition to
housing valuable machines, two of
them worth $4(1,000 there was
quantity of flax straw. The machine
shop- ad -joining caught lire also, but
was extinguished before much dam-
-age was done. Some neighboring
houses were also ablaze, but not ser-
iously. Peer pressure hampered the
firemen. The cause of the lire is un-
known. Mr. Hutchinson, Jr„ was the
last person in the huilding and left
everything apparently all right. Then'
is about 875,000 insurance.

Serious Fire, -- On 'Tuesday night
legit pur villagers were startled by the
alarm of "fire" and the ringing of
bells and the sounds of the siren
whistle and it was Aneln discovered
that the large livery premises of Mr.
T. Murdock were in flames. The fire
was first discovered corning from the
part of the premises tented to Mr,
George Brock for a blacksmith shop
and quickly- spread to the adjoining
shop of Mr. Colin Hudson, who car-
ries on sangg�carriages, implements,
etc., and tlhn leaped to the livery
rant of Mr:tMurdock'.s premises, As
those buildings, all owned by Mr.
Murdock, cover nearly if not quite
one' -half block on Wellington street
opposite the railway station, and .are
till large frame. structures, it can
readily be imagined the scat of flame;
caused and it looked at one tire, as if
it would be utterly impossible to cope
with the flumes or save the adjoin-
ing buildings and particularly so Mr
Murdoc•k's large brick two-story
dwelling. liut our hand engine bri-
gade did nehle work backed by our
citizens generally, who rushed with
rails of water and did splendid ser-
vice in protecting the roofs of the
nearest buildings and it almost seem-
ed a mirne'e„that the fine dwelling of
Mr, Murdock was saved, as it almost
adjoined the large livery barns, only
separated by a few feet, and too
much credit cannot be given to Mr.
Whitesides, Mtr, Bates, Mr. George
Brock, Mr. Pickett, Mr. A. McEwen,
Dave Cornett and others for the
heroic struggle they made against
the flames which almost engulped
thein in their brave fight. Mr. Owen
Geiger also worked hard and to good
advantage. Tile fire was first seen
about half -past ten o'clock and about
12 o'clock the fire was in complete
control and much credit is also due
to Mr. Edgar McQueen and Mr, W.
Vanhom for the manner in which
they rushed tanks of water to the
scene. The fire was so intense and
so large that the reflection was seen
for many utiles and' crowds rushed
to the village by auto from the whole
country side and neighboring towns
and villages end the crowd resembled
that of a large'fair. Fortunately Mr.
Murdock with -the help of the crowd
assembled, gdt all his horses out. and
the greater part of his rigs but still
lost a good deal in the way of his
large out2i), but his loss will be partly
covered by insurance. In the ease of
Mr, C,olins, 3: Hudson and Mr, Geo,
Brock, who rented from Mr. Mur-
dock, we regret to state that they had
no insurance, as the rate was very
high on such class of property and
very much sympathy is felt for them
as their loss will be quite large. Had
the wind, heed very high and from a
different direction front which it was.
it is hard to say where the fire would
have been checked and our villagers
as a whole have much r
ea9itn
to feel
thankful that*the fire did not' spread.
