Foreman of the Albemarle Fire
Department, in behalf cf the
entire company, to publicly
thank Mr. and Mrs F. H. Zeigler
for courtesies extended this
morning after the fire on Road
street. Seeing the efforts of the
firemen and knowing that an
ice drink would de refreshing
to them after two hours' work
funid flames and water, the
boys, on reaching the engine
house to answer to roll call at
4 o'clock were met by Mr. and
Mrs Zeigler with an inexhausti
ble supply of ice cold tea, which
they served. It was indeed an
agreeable surprise and being
the first of its kind was doubly
appreciated.
This Morn-lror's Fire.
At two o'clock ihi
fire broke out in tbe Isaac
building on Road street,
Canal bridge. The alarm
promptly responded to by
Albemarle Fire Company, and
in a short while the engine was
at the scene of the conflagration,
but the fare being so close to the
canal the firemen were forced to
romove the engine to Martin
street and lay hose across
swamp. In moving the eugiue
some part of the pulling gear
gave way. All this, ot course
caused delay end many though
the fire would spread r.i:.-id-!v
but soon the water was turne
aud the fire gotteu undei
control the result being tha
several buildings near the oh
11
burning shanties were saved
all due to the work of the fire
men. The buildiiiL's destroved
Q "
save the coach shop of Carter
ec 011, were old aud del apida
ted and of little value; however
mere was enougn insurance on
them to cover the loss. The
coach shop of Carter cc Son was
uninsured and the loss to them
is quite heavy. The orgiu of
the fire is unknown.
The Hook and Ladder Co
also responded promptly and did
valuable service as they always
do.

The Small Boy's Idol.
My daughter, who teaches in
mission Sunday school, tells me
of a Dewey experience she had
with a youngster making his
first appearance. She had put
him through a half hour or more
rf instruction iu the rudimenta
y principles, for he was entire
Iy lacking in information on
that point, aud to test him was
reviewing: her work with him.
"Now," she said, "tell me
again who made the world and
all that is in it?
"GoJ," replied the boy, with
commendable promptitude.
"uod can do everything, can't
le?" she asked again.
The boy hesitated a moment.
"I don't believe he could lick
Oewey," he answered at last,
ind the teacher sat silent bes
ween her religion and her pats
notism. It wasn t her time to
say anything, it she didn't want
to lose that boy forever, and she
lad wit enough to' let it go at
