The destruction of 14 buildings and a to tal property loss of over $12.'i,000 Is In brief the story of the visit of the fire fiend at Mlddlebury last Sunday night. The lire broke out nt 7 o'clock In the old pine build ing on Main street known as the Rookery. It was all ablaze In a moment, and almost before tho alarm was soiuided J, J Hut tolph's building on the opposite sldeof the street was on lire. These buildings were situated at the end of the bridge on Main street crossing Otter creek. The new system of water works, upon which work has been In progress all sum mer, was not completed. Tho pipes were all laid, tho hydrants in place and the pump house built, hut the pump and apparatus were at Durllugton at the factory of the I.ang & Goodhue company, the contract ors. The contract called for completion of the system August 13, and It Is generally believed that If streams could have been thrown from the hydrants the lire would have been cheeked In a few minutes. As It was the village was dependent upon the work of the lire department, with one steamer, a hand engine and a pump at the Sun grist mill. The steamer was not In condition and It was half an hour before any water was thrown upon the flames. The lire swept east on Main street and was not stopped until It reached the large brick building owned by Ileckwlth , Co. This was practically fire proof but was on fire several times under the tin roof, and was saved only by 'constant work. The Kidder shop and the Baptist church were also saved after a bard struggle. If the lteckwlth building bad not withstood the tlames the loss would have been much more severe. The men of the village and the college hoys worked with desperation and many acts of heroism are related. Aid was summoned from llurliugton and Hut land and the fire departments from those places responded, but did not arrive until the lire was under control. The Hurling ton companies, however, rendered good service In watching and earing for the ruins. It was 10::i0 when the fire was controlled and 1::!0 before the firemen ceased work. How the fire started Is not known, but there Is some suspicion that it was of In cendiary origin. Among some of the most serious losses sustained are tire following: K. I Park burst, grocer, sJiiOO; Farnsworth A Co., hardwaie, i-14,000; Mrs. Iluttolph, on i,. "V : 7 . ' " ' I building, $0000; K. P.

What appears to be a case of outrageous and Indecent treatment of a faithful wife came to light at White lUver Junction last week. The offending husband is Dr. O. W. Daley of that place, a man 2K years old, whose parents are respected residents of Montpelier. Ills wife, to whom he was married in 1S80, was Miss Hay of Hlncs burg, an estimable young woman, against whom no word of reproach has ever been said. Before his 'marriage to Miss Itay, Daley had been acquainted with Mae Gates, a daughter of the late Geo. W. Gates of White Hlvcr Junction, the wealth iest man in that place. According to the published reports Miss Gates was very much "interested" in Dr. Daley, who had a drug store at White ltlver Junction, and there was some surprise at the time because he did not marry her. Since 1887 Miss Gates's father, mother and brother have died, leaving her the sole heir to a large es tate. In 1880, after these events took place, Daley said he was going to move to Medford, Mass., and his wife went to Mont pelier to live with his parents in the mean time. He did not move to Medford, how ever, but proceeded to devote himself to Miss (Jutes and she to him. In the spring of 1S!)0 Dr. Daley paid Ills wife a visit at Montpelier, when lie gave her the surpris ing information thai he should no longer support her. In the moan time Miss (ates was putting up a handsome building at White ltlver Junction, in which was the handsomest drug store In the state, ami in to which Daley removed In due time. Last spring he went to Yankton, So. Dak., staid there to secure the necessary 00 days of legal residence, opened proceedings for divorce, got the coveted document on the 24th 'of last October, hastened back to White ltlver Junction, to which place he had paid one visit during his 00 days' resi dence in Dakota, and after visiting several clergymen who refused their services, found a Mellows Falls minister who married him to Miss Gates on Thursday of last week. "While the bride was putting the finishing touches to her orange blossoms," as the Montpelier Watclimm's bright young man states it, papers were served on her by the rejected wife's lawyers for 25,000 dam ages for alienating her husband's affections. Daley has tried to get Ids parents to dis card his deserted wife, but they declare that so long as they have a home she shall have one with them.
