 The Standard. MAEKDAL^, AUGUST 23beJ888. •SERIOUS FIEE IN AETEMESIA, M. bullivan's fabm buildings and con- tents CONSUMED. About 3 o'clock Tuesday morning, while the family were all sleeping soundly, they were awakened by the crackmg of fire which by this time had gained considerable headway in the kitchen. Mr. Sullivan was not at home, having gone the day prfiwous to Duiham to attend the cattle fair, Mrs. Sullivan and family, the young- est being but three weebj oid, with the servant girl, narrowly escaped with their lives, nothing -being saved. The wind blew towards the barn which atood about 15 rbod distant. and a spark from the burning house fired it, which was speediiy -cnnsumed with 'the contents consi'sting of about 45 •tons of hay Eeaper, Moxver, Sulky rake, cutter, cutting box, wagon and various other implements and machi- nery. His loss will amount to at least $2,000. We did not learn the amount of the insurance, but it is light com- pared with the heavy loss. Prfee iljist iof .jGHenel^ Agri- vcsttteal Society. for 1883.

Between 12 and 1 o'clock on Sun- day morning a mau named Henry Moss, met a terrible fate on the To- ronto Grey Bruce Ey., near Mark- dale. He and a young mau named Jesse lies, who lives at lOG York street, were ou tbeir way to Toronto from Owen Sound, having been work- ing on the Algoma Mills psction of the Canada Pacific, before getting on board Moss laid iu a quantity of liquor and when near the above village be- came almost unmanageable under its influence, getting up and stamping about the car like a madman. He was then seen to go out and cross the platforms to enter the baggage car, a move unnoticed by Conductor Thomp sou. No more of him was seen un- til his remains were found on the trick a few hours later crushed and mutilated in a horrible manner. The head was literally torn away from the trunk and mashe'l to fragments. A Mr. Lawlor, of Woodbridge, saw him fall from the train. It is supposed m attempting to pass from one car to another he fell between. The body was brought to the city ou the G o'clock train, and by direction of superintendent Wilson, taken to the morgue. Mr. Wilson Stated at police headquarters yesterday that lies holds a cheque on the railroad for the wages of the deceased. lies, however, de- nies this flatly, declaring that all he knows about the cheque is that when the conductor asked Moss for his fare, the latter pulled out the cheque instead of his ticket. lies told him that he had best keep his cheque, uj)- on which he put it in his pocket again The dec-,ased ws 35 years of age, and has been about a year out from Eng- land.
