Mot Beenen.—Last Saturday morn. ing, about 8 o'olocic, the sawmill of Reeve Milne was discovered to be on fire and the flames had reached such a height that there was no possibility of saving anything. It will be a serious loos to the proprietor as be had only $1800 insurance on the premises on account of the high rate, The mill was about 30x70.feet and in addition to the sawmill a shingle machine andlplaning mill outfit were run. Mr. Milne's mill on this site was burned down about four years ago so that the building destroyed ou Saturday was nom. paratively new. They had been running on Friday and the fireman saw that everything was all right before leaving. It looks something like the work of an incendiary. The fire is particularly bad at this season of the year when sawmill work should begin to boom and Mr. Milne was counting on a big out this Winter. The probabilities are that the mill will be rebuilt at once. CxrO3'. Toucher Engler is re.engaged to teach Whitfield's school for next year.
