And though John F. Mil ler's house was not burnt down yes terday, as was early In tho day re ported, that of Mrs. Daniel Clark, alv mllra Kntith of Rnlom. mi the Turner road, was destroyctfCy the dovcuring element. Airs. uwrKwas m mile aud a half from the residence, helping a neighbor to cook, for n threshing crew, when It unaccountably burst luto flames. Another threshlug crew, nearer at hand, perceiving the fire, did all in their nower. and succeeded In sav ing the organ and a little else. The loss will bo nearly covered by insur ance.

Wheat was a good crop, and oats are vl-ry plentiful. Some yields wbfl excellent, for instance, A..C. Taylor had an average of over 40 bushels on 32 acres of wheat, and a piece of oats went nearly 50 bush els. You see there was so much of his prohl clement In June, plenty of water. Another prolii, J. P. Frizzel, of Perrydale, gathered between 82 and S3 bushels. So I suppose they can stand it to let Harrison beat Fisk. U. NO. U. Salem 1'ioblMtlou Club. The club met last night In W. C. T.

Is It not hotter to nip consump tion, the greater scourge of huihuii ity, in the bud, than to try to stay its progress on the brink of the grave.

Nasal Cutarrh, too often the forerunner of consump tion, chii be cured by California CAT-R-CUUK. These remedies are sold and fully warranted by I). W. Salem, ut (I, or three for I2.K). A promioingalgu fur our farmers is the purchase of new steamers fur the Yaquiua route. With good facilities moat of our wheat will go that way. LOCAL 2JOT1N. Vermont votes to-day.
