Iron enquiries we have made we
find that the" house in question was
built by the late George Bowers, also
the ane next to it, which Mr. E.
Ward Occupies, and the one 'next to'
it,: Mr.' '.George Davies' house, also
the one cross the way, Mr.:A. Can-

ne doubt dropped when the roof was
being put on and :it has lain all these
years under the shingles,. although,
possibly the shingles,; have. been ,rre-
newed since.
There was no date on the clipping
but it was evidently: winter, at least
horses were •being stapled at the tince.

GREAT FIRE
About nine o'clock last night a fire
broke out in the hayloft of the
Clinton Hotel stables which spread to
the remainder of 'the :building with a
rapidity that it is alanost impossible
to' describe, for 'in,less than three'
ini:rates the whole upper portion of
the stable was one sheet of flame, By
the. great exertions of the people who
quickly assembled the horses and
vehicles were' fortunately rescued.
The flames immediately communicat-
ed with the same lightning -like ae
pidity to the stables. of 141r. Potts ad -
Seining, as well as to the adjacent
stable. of -Messrs, Spoonei4 and 'Thom-
as, and that of the' Rev. A. D. Mc-
Donald, both of which were quickly
burnt to the ground. The fire engine
was here used•'to great advantage in
preventing the fire from taking hold
of Mr. McDonald's residence and Mr.
McTaggart's lumber -yard, both of
which were in great danger also from
falling embers, and required the
great vigilance of 'a large number of
t prevent people �o l vent their ignition, , An
old brick store, unoccupied„, situated
close:�y:the hotel stables, was caught
by the flames at an early period of
the'flre, end speedily fell a prey to' it,
and,the houses occupied by Mr. Geo.
Spencer and "Mr. Gaunter as shoe
nialer's shops, were fora tine in very
imminent danger of sharing' rile same
fate, ' By great exertions, however,
they were saved and Mr, Spencer
who bad all his furniture, stock, and
working' utensils turned into, the
street,egot them replaced, -though of
course, in a".confused condition, and
inuch the worse for the hasty flitting
he had 'been'compelled to make, -His
misfortune, though not so bad as it
knight' have been, was aggravated by
the circumstance of their youngest
child being'in a very dangerous state
of illness, front which it is not ex-
pected to recover. His family of
tittle children were $nug in their beds
when, the fire broke opt, and it was
very.' distressing to Abe their ,little
terror•-strioken•: countenances when
they were turned out to seek` their
night's lodgings among their kind
friends and - neighbors,
At' the time we write we have no
means of forming any estimate of
the •amount,of loss the various par-
ties have sustained, of what' amount
is covered by assurances, if any, The
fire, we understand, originated 'froir,
the explosion of a coal oil Iamp which
the hostler of the hotel had taken up
into the loft of ,the stable when going
up to' throw hay down to the horses.
This fact seems to be•pretty well an-
thonticated, Very fortunatelv'the'e

He stated there were three .definitions
of Social Service. First, it is ap-
plied Christianity. Second, it is the
Gospel' in action `' Third, it is the
science and art of human' fellowship,
It hes a'three fold work to do, based
upon the example of Christ, namely
preaching', teaching and doing good.
To accomplish this it must have.effi-
ciency, training and sympathy. Al-
though
the Council is still in its. in-
fancy it has already undertaken work
in the following departments:
1. Literature and Publicity; 2,
Welcome'and Welfare of Newcomers;
8, family .life and Social Relations;
4; Child Welfare; 5, Christianity and
Industrial Relationship; 6, . Naval and
Military Service:
Captain the Rev. C. H. Buckland

complihed by the Province of Ontario,

Allowance Act, the Juvenile Courts
and the Industrial Schools,

mon was delivered by Res. Canon

24, verse '7, "Lift up your Heads, 0
Ye Gates, and be Ye Lift up ye Lsver-
lasting Doors, and the King of Glory

he declared, was; the"coronation and
enthronement of the Victor over

victory over them. 1st, He was en-
