NORTH SYDNEY, N.S., May 5.â€" The entire business block of North Sydney, bounded at one end by the marine railway and at the other by Archibald avenue, was destroyed by fire at an early hour yesterday morn- ing. Every principal business house in the town is gone except the large departmental store of Vooght Bros. and buildings of the Royal and Nova Scotia Banks. The loss is estimated at a quarter of a million dollars. One life was lost, that of Percy Sayer, who man..ged the nickel theatre. Horses and Rigs Burned. MIDLAND, May 5.â€"â€"Fire broke out in a frame livery barn here early Saturday morning and burned it to the ground. The building contained five horses, harness and rigs. The fire had gained such headway when discovered that nothing could be sav- ed, and the horses perished with the : other contents. A strong wind was blowing, and large live Cinders werel carried for several blocks, one alight- ing on the roof of the jail, two blocks away, which was damaged to same extent. A barber shop on one side of the burning buildin and a' livery barn on the other si e took‘ fire, but the fires were extinguished before any I damage was done. The loss ispartly : covered by. insurance. The origin of the fire is a mystery. Gasoline Explodes, Boy Burned.

In this manner enough water supply was secured to save what little of the town is left to-day. The fire is a hard blow to the town, as most of the business section is in ashes There were no facilities to cope with such an extensive conflagration once it had a good start, and the flames speedily licked up the frame buildings in its path, and nothing: )2on be done except to try to prevent the spread of the fire, as the entire town was threatened with destruction. Insurance will not begin to cover the losses. The Cox crnmerzt. railway buildings escaped damaged. but the following places were burned: Jameson Meat Co., store at Wonderland Moving Pio- ture House. J. Clerks general store Loftus Rataurant, Union Bank. Dub rack's barber shop and pool room, Hughes stationeryp store. postomce. Dr. Lowery's drug store and resi- dence, McGladery Bros.‘ hardware store, Herman’s tailor shop, O'Grady's store, Rubenstein’s gente’ furnishings store, Thompson’s fruit. and ice cream parlor, Chinese laundry, Dr. Reid's of- fice, Kerman's grocery, City Meg Market, Holditch’s bakery. Metcalf's jyewelr store. Vertliek’s grocery, En~ ngehart News printing office, Le- lanc’s residence, and other small buildings , The loss is conservatively estimated at $125,000, with less than $50000 in- surance to cover this. In all twentyâ€" two buildings fell a. prey to the flames, including some thirty stores. and to- day the town is without a single gro- cery stere, a butcher shop. bakery 751' drug store. and it is necessary to send out to other towns in the district for the daily necessaries of lite. Not a building stands to mark the busiest section of the town. It was with difficult that the large King Edward Hote was saved, and al- though it was on fire many times vol- unteer firemen assisted greatly. Had it caught fire during the conflagration what little of the section of the town that was left would today also be in ashes.

The ceremony was performed by Rev. John Mackersie, B. D., in the pres. ence of only immediate friends and neighbors. After congratulations were received, all partook of a dainty re- past, after which Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Rae left on the four o'clock train for Toronto, Buflalo and Pittsburg. Pa.

Ham- mond had a strike on his hands, which, however, did not develop in- to anything serious. The staff of men employed in digg- ing the main in front" of Britton’s jewellery store informed the Supt. that they felt $2.00 a day was not ‘sufficient for the work they were doing. They thought they should re- ceive $2.25 or $2.50, and sharpen their own picks.

' MEN STRUCK FOR In measuring electricity the amper- es (quantity) are multiplied by the volts‘ (pressure) and the result is called “watts.” 1000 watts is a kilowatt. or K. W., and this am- ount of power used for one hour is called a “kilowatt hour." is first multiplied ' by the pressure, and the calvulation is then based on that result. It would take twice as much power to pump 100 gallons per second under 20 lbs. pressure as for the same Quantity under 10 lbs. pressure. A “volt" Is the unitof pressure at which the curmut is carried. in the same way we expmss the pres- sure used in water pipes as at so may pounds per square inch.

It was this Thorne who told of the charges and of certain inci-dentsi which the majority of the Committee refused to investigate.

Mr. Proudfoot quickly disposed of this mis-statement by announcing that he had only met Masozxville a few times several years ago when the latter was Secretary to Hon, Dr. Reaume. He had had no sommunicat-ion with him of any kind. First, there was -the bare-faced re- fusal to admit essential evidences, a process of blocking admitted and de- plored by such.
