Druce lived, was also gutted. - An' other dwelling, unoccupied, fell a prey to the flames. It was stated that the fire started from a defective chimney dn the dwell ing of Mr. Druce. There was a very strong wind blowing at the time, and the firemen had a hard task of it. Three streams of water were put on the blaze as speelily as possible, but the fire had quite a start, and it tired some time before it could be checked. 1t is understood that there was very little insuraiice on the place: burned. ; The firemen had a long run, but made the trip in good time, in spite of the fact that there are some very bad snow drifts on the way out, This morning, the fire was still smouldering, and the fire chief had some of the men go out to the scene and use some chemicals on it. The buildings were frame, and it did not take them very long to get into a mass of flames. At the post office all the mail was saved, and some furni ture, but in the other dwellings prac tically nothing was saved, some of members of the family losing very heavily, and as far as it conld be learned, there was very little insurance carried on furniture. --------------" 2 for 28---Strawberries--2 2 cans strawberries, for Crawford.

The news of the game was received, last might, with great satisfaction, by Peterboros led by 3 goals to 2, but the Fronténaé forward hive had not got into action.
