There entire stock , of this season‘s cutting of lumber. lath l, and shingles is completely gone, in-l cluding the three mills, and machine! y. t with A total loss of $7,000, The tirei originated by a spurt from the shingle‘ mill. Every effort was made to pre- ventits spreading. hut owing to the} extremely dry season the fire spread[ and consumed the entire plant. Al high wind was blowing. and this car- ried the fire into the fields. which quickly consumed the drv cropa. and the (Miners in that vicinity had hard Work in saying their harm and homes. Miller &Sein intend rebuilding atonce. f The loss is partially covered by insur-i ance. POSTAL svuoesruos,--we notice in the Poutnmster General's Pepor t " mg- geution that people writmg letters should Sign their full names and ad, dresses to their letters and there would never he a letter but what could he re- turned if it failed to reach the person it was intended for. The report. sug- gasts a better reuwdy than that, loo, but one which is more expensive. That is to have a small card printed on the corner of the envolope, This will cost only a trifie, and if the letter can- not be delivered to the address, or the address should be wrong, the letter would come back in the course of ftve to ten days, instead of going through the dead letter Mike. and thtrtllv being returned to the. wrlter after u. lapse of two weeks or more. The latter sug- ge-tinn is much the better and can be adopted at a very small expense. A RICH MAYon.---lt is" great thing for property owners to have a rich Mayor.
