THE BURNING OF MC NAM ARA S EI.KVA-
TOR.
The largest cocflsgration since the
burning of the factory of the New Mil
ford Button Co., July 15, 1889, took place
here Friday about 2 p. m., by the burn
ing of Noble Bennett's grain and feed
elevators. '.The building and its contents,
grain, feed, hay and coal, were totally
consumed and the heat caused by the
flames was excessively hot, making it
very diflloult for the firemen to even pro
tect the buildings close by the one in
flames. It was thoughts certainly that
the large double house occupied by Mich
ael McNamara and W illiam G. Lathrop
with their families must burn with the
elevator, but by .the hard work of the
rlremen it was finally saved. The house
hold furniture of both the above named
parties was taken out of tbeir respective
residences and piled in heaps and scatter
ed promiscuously in the orchard on the
hill near Andrew M. Booth's store. The
sight to witness the throwing out house
hold c fleets from the upper stories of the
dwelling was pitiable to behold and the
Injury caused by the hasty work to the
articles was lamentable. But every one
did the best they could under the circum
stances. Had it been left in the building
it would have been ruined by water and
steam. The many friends of both the
McNamara and Lathrop families deeply
sympathize with them in their unfortu
nate situation. The house will have to
be thoroughly repaired before they can
get things back into it and assume its
formei homelike condition. The eleva"
tor building was owned by Mr McNa
mara and was insured for $7000. The
grain and Contents of the building were
the property of Noble Bennett and his in
surance Is reported at $4000. The lat-
ter's loss must be quite in excess of his
insurance and it is also probable that
McNamara's loss will be quite a consid
erable above his insurance. The burning
building created intense excitement and
drew a large crowd of people to the
scene to witness the destruction by the
elements. The firemen worked heroical
ly and are deserving much credit for their
gallantry. Fortunately no one was in
jured but the rlremen were a sorry look
ing lot of men after their labors were
over. "The day was a quiet one, there be
ing no wind to fan the flames, which was
fortunate for the owners of nearby prop
erty. The double house is the property
of Noble Bennett and we presume the
damage to It by the fire Is covered by In
surance. After.the fire had spent Its fury
the tall brick chimney was left standing
and fearing that a wind might rise and
blow it down it was deemed advisable to
take it down and this was done by plac
ing a chain around its base and attaching
a railroad locomotive to it which cut the
chimney and let it down as nice as could
be wished. This fire was the second
alarm during the week. The first alarm
was at the New Milf ord Hat Co.'s works,
caused by a gasoijne tank catching fire,
calling out the firemen. Fortunately no
great damage was done.

A BUSINESS CHANGE.
We were informed last week that on
March 20. J. B. Stillson will withdraw
as partner in the meatmarket here and
Robert H. Armstrong will for the year
to come be the sole proprietor. Mr
Stillson will devote all his time to farm
ing and buying and selling cattle. No
tices have already been put up in the
market that from March 10 a strictly
cash business will be done there, thus
laying aside the journal and ledger. Mr
Armstrong has rented for the year to
come, as a home, Maj Burnbam's cot
tage on Lake street with the barn on
opposite side of the street also owned by
Maj Burnham. We bespeak for Mr
Armstrong a good trade in this vicinity
as he has been so favorably known for
years here in the same capacity. At the
same time we shall miss Mr Stillson's
pleasant face from the block and counter.
Mr Stillson for nine years has faithfully
endeavored to serve the people with as
well supplied market of meats, vegeta
bles, etc., as has ever been kept here.
During the past four years he has with
all of us realized the stringency of money,
and the consequent unpleasantness of
conducting a business with this hinder
ance, and we cannot blame Mr Arms
trong at the start for adopting the
strictly cash system in his business. We
hope he will in this respect succeed. Mr
Stillson will still be found here most of
the time at his home ready to purchase
anything in the line of his stock and
perhaps produce also.
Mrs Horace McCann is among the
latest victims of the measles here, being
confined all of last week to her home.
Miss Laura Burnham is still unable to
venture out of doors on account of a se
vere cold.
Mrs George S. Lyman still continues

H. E. Warner irj tired one hand and wrist
seriously, which incapacitated him from
labor the rest of the week. Mr Warner
and wife on Saturday moved into the
hou?e owned by Carl E Johnson and re
cently occupied by the late Milo Par
sons.
Mrs Wedge vi-ited part of last week
with her daughter, Mrs Arden Tanner,

Merryall on Saturday and had to re
main at Edgar Peet's over last Sunday,
which kept Mr Hosford and two or more
men there until the animal was able to
come home.
WARREN.
THE EARLY HISTORY OF WARREN.
At the regular meeting ot the Grange
on Tuesday evening, the subject was
"History of the town, with incidents and
anecdotes of the life of the pioneer
settlers." War. en was set off from Kent
by an act of General Assembly of the
State at Hartford, the 2nd Thursday of
May, 1786, in consideration of a memorial
of the inhabitants of the town of Kent
by tbeir agents Josiah Pratt and Eleazer
Curtiss. Only one representative was
allowed the town. The first town meet
ing was held June 27, 1786. Jedediah
Hubbard was moderator, Eleazer Curtiss
was chosen town clerk and Capt Joseph
Carter first selectman. Fence viewers,
leather sealers, sealers of weights and
measures, key keeper, listers, grand
jurors and tithing men were appointed.
Ephraim Tanner's east barn was to be
the pound. During the revolution it
was a part of Kent, called East Green
wich, and during the war we find that
Eleazer Curtiss was major, Joseph Car
ter and Peleg Sturtevant ;captains, .Dea
con Eben Tanner, Samuel Carter and
Nathan Swift lieutenants. Also in the
army were Augustin and Lysander Cur
tiss, Dea Fowler, Philip and Eben Strong
George Batterson and John Halloway
Major Curtiss was at the battle of Dan-
bury and caught Gen Wooster as he fell
from his horse in that battle. Among
tbe records of the town ia a "Book of
E-aruaarKs" whereby tne cattle that run
at large, were known to the different
owners. For instance there was a dia
gram of the two ears indicated as follows
John Taylor owner, square crop of the
left ear, swallow fork in the right. In
some a note was puncnea in the upper-
part of the left ear and the lower part of
the right ear. The town in its early
history produced almost .everything the
people used. In what is now called Hard
scrabble were various establishments
Mills for card eg wool, making cloth
satinet, making nails, rims of wheels out
of pig iron. Leather was tanned in the
town, boots and shoes made and .also as
the making of cider, brandy, and a cup
board in all the homes where liquors
were kept. Warren was not an anomaly
in this matter. The big wheel and the
little wheel was found everywhere.
The tea drank was not imported, but pre
pared by the sagacity of the mothers,
Of the imported tea there was
part of a tea pot full, when 320 chests
were broken, open and emptied into
Boston harbor. Those were the days of
"Anld Lang Syne" and should never be
forgotten by posterity.
William Welton and wife left for Flori
da on Thursday, March 11.
Mr Bennett preached in the Methodist

The use of the surer eon's knife is be'

Mr. William Walwole. of Walshtown
South Dakota, writes; "About
three years ago, there came ' under
my left eye a little blotch about the
size of a small pea.
It grew rapidly, and
shooting- pains ran
in every direction.
I became alarmed
and consulted a
good doctor, who
pronounced it can-
TJsvcer, and said that it
must be: cut out.
, This. I would not
consent to, having
little faith in the
indiscriminate use of the knife. Read
ing of the many cures made by S. S.
S., I determined to give that medicine
a trial, and after I had taken it a few
days, the cancer became irritated and
began to discharge. This after awhile
ceased, leaving a small scab, which
finally dropped off, and only a healthy
little scar remained to mark the place
wnere tne destroyer naa neia run sway.

DANGERS OF THE GRIP.
The greatest danger from LaGrippe is
of its resulting in pneumonia. If rea
sonable care is used, however, and
Chamberlain's cough remedy taken, all
danger will be avoided. Among tbe
tens of thoueands who have used this
remedy for lagrippe, we have yet to
learn of a single case having resulted In
pneumonia, which shows conclusively
that this remedy is a certain preventive
of that dread disease. It will effect a
permanent cure in less time than any
other treatment. The 23 and 50 cent

"WHERE DOCTORS DISAGREE."
There has been a great deal of disagree
nient from time to time about the therapentio
valne of sarsaparilla. In tb main, authori
ties deny any particular medical value to the
plant. "It's just an old wlve's remedy," they
say. And in the main they are right. There
are about a dozen varieties ot sarsaparill.i,
sea tered tbrongh various countries, and ot
this dozen only one has any real curative
power. So a man whose experience might
be confined to th II other varieties might
honestly say there was little valne in them.
The- ono valuable sarBaparilla ia found In
Honduras, C. A. Monardea, a pnysioian ot
Seville, records the introduction ot sarsapa.
villa into Spai'i as a result ot the Spanish dis
coveries ot the New World, between 1S35 and
1545. Bnt the root did not accomplish much.
But he adds, "a better sort soon came from
Honduras." It is this "better sort" that is
used exclusively In Ayer's Sarsaparilla. And
it is the use of this "better sort" that haa giv
en Ayer's 8araaparuia prominence over all
other varieties by reason ot its wonderful
cures of blood diseases. Send for the Cure
