WANT FIXED ASSESSMENT BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR THIS FIRM (From Tuesday' 3 Post) At last night' 3 Council meeting the following communication was read, and referred to the Finance Commit‘ tee for consideration. "To the Mayor and Cotincil : Gentlemenâ€"On January 10. 1910, we interviewed the Council in regard to certain extensionsin our plant and machinery. and requested a fixed assessment for a term of 20 years. “The Council reported favorably, and referred the matter to the Fin- ance Committee. Tlfe Finance Com- mittee wrote Jan.v19th and recomâ€" mended the Court of Revision to grant us a fixed assessment for ten years. The Court of Revision met on June 6th and unanimously passed a resolution fixing the assessment at $13,000, the amount of our assessment and recommended that this be contin- ued for a period of t'en‘yesrs. "Since that time it has been dis-t covered that the Council has no legal right to fix the assessment without'a I THIRTY-FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS IS ESTIMATED DAMAGE AT BETHANY FIRE (Peterboro Examiner) Thirty-four thousand; dollars is the estimated damage caused by a. fire which wiped out fully Oneâ€"half of the hamlet of Bethany last night. The tire was first discovered in the harness making establishment of Alex. Monk and in a very short space oftim‘e the flames had spread rapidly both east and west on the south side of what is known as King street. The entire fire equipment of the village, which. consisted of two hand pumps and a couple of short lengths of hose, was. brought into requisition, ‘ and with the splendid aid'rendered by the emplby~ ees of the Toronto Construction Co., much Valuable property was saved: from the devouring flames. A tempor- ary tank', which isuscd'. tovsupply wa- ter to the construction engines and which is fed by a hydraulic ram from a nearby creek was kept in constant operation throughout the night, and was of very material assistance in checking the flames through the med~ ium of a hand engine. any chances of injury to his appaxjat- i Salvia 18 a non-sticky prepar 8-1-3103. us.

Bucket brigades and salvage corps were formed and the workers heroicâ€" ally endeavoured to save as'much of the contents of the doomed buildings as possible. They piled the goods out in .the middle of the road, and by strenuous efiorts succeeded in saving many hundreds oirdollars worth of furniture. etc. Hairbreadth escapes of the fire fighters were many, and miraculous; one man, while attempt- ing to extinguish the flames or. the roof of a two-storey buildings, fell to the ground and was reodered uncon- scious. Fortunately medical aid was near at hand and his injuries were at- tended to.He recovered about an hour later. very little the worse for his mishap. About 12.20 the fire had assumed such alarming proportions that Mr Preston, the member for East Dur- ham and resident of the fire stricken. burg, called Peterboro and endeauour- ed to get in communication with the Mayor. with a View to securing help. In this he was unsuccessful, as the Mayor was out of town. He next comi municated with Fire Chief Howard and the latter volunteered to take an‘ engine and hose wagon out, provided he sechred a written order from the, Chairman of the Fire Water and Light ‘ committee, and that the municipal I authorities of Bethany would guar- antee the expenses of the trip.

It is quite possible that ayear hence from 150 to 200 hands may be employed by our firm in Lindsay.
