DUNDALK school was burned on Saturday night last. It was a four room brick building, and the loss to the town will be considerable. The cause of the fire is unknown to us. but is supposed to have originated in the furnace. ['1‘ is always a pleasure to get a kind word from a subscriber. and we are confident that most publishers feel pleased to know that their efforts are meeting with approval' We don’t know Lawrence Reid, of New West- minster, B. 0., but we feel grateful for the kindly reference he makes to the CHRONICLE in forwarding his sub- scription. We always appreciate subscriptions, but when they are accompanied with kindly remarks, we seem to get a new inspiration. THE Hello chap at the Central un- dertook to call us down the other day. ' because. he sa ys we didn’t answer his ring. Now, we'll just inform the Tim- portant functional-y that he tackled ‘ the wrong man, and we wish to remind ' him that we made many unsuccessful ‘ attempts to wake up the Central. \Ve ‘ just now ask the privilege to remind' you, Mr. Man, that it’s your business1 to make connections, when called on ‘ to do so. and there’s plenty of evidence to show that you haven’t been attend- ing to your duty promptly.

Strange, isn’t it that a reverend gentleman should dream of a common newspaper man? On Mon- day night, he had a dream about us, however. ”We hate the common run of obituary poetry, and the fact is we i are not much in love with any of the ' hmne~made stuff that finds its way to uul‘ sanctum. In Mr. Newton’s dream however. he saw a poet coming into our office with an off-hand production on “The Beautiful Snow,” and as soon V‘.‘ ‘1‘, -- .wâ€" up the job.

THE boys seem to haveheen running loosc here of late. A short time ago a couple of them went into the grocery store of Mrs. A. Beggs, and asked Mr. Reid, who was in charge, for some small article, that necessitated his going to the rear of the store. Dur- ing his absence, one of them abstract. ed from the money till, the sum of five or six dollars. Part of the money was recovered, but no action has been taken towards the punishment of the young offenders. It seems a pity not to check them in the start, and we do not think they should be allowed off scot free. ON Friday last, there died in Nor- manhy, Mr. George Johnston, brother of Mr. Wm.
