PRIOR'S FOUNDRY BURNED.
A Big Blaze in Enstvlcw tins! Night.
About half-past one o’clock tills
morning the new foundry of Mr.W.W,
Prior in Eastview was'discovered to be
on lire. The alarm was given, and
the city lire department responded
promptly in good force.
The lire had tunile too inuoh progress
to permit the saving of the foundry
building itself, but the ndjacent ma
chine shops and Hhelr valuable con
tents were preserved.
The members of the lire department
and our people generally nre saying
very nice things this morning about
the Standard Mills people, who had a
couple of streams of water playing on
the lire before tho department could
get over from town, nnd ^vho loaned
them both hose and pressure for the
emergency.
Mr.Prior lost many valuable foundry
patterns in the flames, and his loss is a
heavy one botli in the destructiveness
of the Arc nnd the consequent delay,ns
his foundry has been rushed with work
ever since it started, lie will re-build
at once. Loss, $1,500; insurance $1,200.

during the day over a walking-stick.
Amus vowed I'O wollid “get” Jack

vow most completely.
About half-past eight o’clock (hat
night as Jack was going around
Dempsey’s corner, Amos stepped
out from cover and threw a large
rock nt him, striking him in the
head and crushing his skull badly.
Jack was soon found, and was
