I The last few davs have not been ‘fiavofiable for work on the street ,railway. The brackets for the elec- l tric wives are being- put up however, and the work is being pushed along ‘as fast as possible. It is under- :stood that the workmen have' bEen fdelayed in consequence of the non- arrival of the electric wire from ,‘ Montreal. The total receipts at the Christ- mas Fair and entertainment in the Temperance Hall Wednesday even- ing of last week under the auspices of the Ladies’ Guild of St. Mary’s Church was nearly $100. At a recent meeting of the Board of Education a resolution was passed authorizing and instructing the trea- surer to pay the teachers monthly; also to place storm windows on the north and west windws in the upper rooms of the High School. The re- port of Mr. C. W. Malloy, B.A., on his recent visit to the Public School, was read. The report was favor- able, but the inspector! offered a number of suggestions, including better school accommodation.

From our Issue of Dec. 20th, The Fire Brigade was called out { last night (Wednesday) at 12 o’clock :to battle against the flames which 'were at that time discovered to be raging in the High School Building. The fire, which started in the furn- ace room, had made great headway before discovered, as nothing was noticed until some members of Mr. ,Teefy’s family were awakened by falling- glass, from one of the win. d’ows in the large room. Shortly af- ‘ ter the alarm was given, the brigade and many of the citizens were at ithe scene of the fire, and for nearly four lours streams: of water were continuously showered on the school and neighboring buildings. Two tanks in front of the High School were first emptied; next, two oppo- site Proctor’s stables; next, one large tank in front of Skeele's store, and lastly the engine had to be removed to the tank near Glass’ butcher shop. It was impossible to save the High School building, but by hard work the Public School buildings in the rear were saved, a feat which at times seemed an impossibility to ac- complish. The old- Grammar school building, now used by the Public school, is only six feet from the High School, but nothing was burnâ€" ed except the belfryl. W. Storey’s frame residence stood only» 25 feet to the south, and, although the wind was blowing in that direction, the house is none the worse. The little engine never worked better, and the firemen and others fought with a; will.
