Donation and Roll-call. world's fair. Col. Lamont and Our Ad. Col. Daniel Lamont. so recently called to the position of Secretary of War, was a nephew of tho late Dr. Kingman of Palmyra, He was tho son of a widowed mother, who gave him tho caro so ofton bestowed by thorn upon their fatherless boys. Mr. Lamont is a man of wonderful capacity for collecting and classify ing that kind of information which is so effective in political movements. His manner is quiot and unassuming, showing no effort on his part to reach his aims, but steadily moving on, he becomes a prominent figure in the coming administration. Let no American boy despair of claiming his country's brightest gifts, but cultivate a manhood which shall grace the highest imdowments. At tho time that A. W. Gates was member of Assembly from this dis trict, Col. Daniel Lamont was s reporter for the Albany Argus. A number of the brilliant representa tives of tho people of this state, our own among them, to vary the mo tony of law-making and money ap propriating for the public weal, were wont through sheer mischief, to an nounce through tho messenger a visit from a neighbor or political col league. Tho homesick sojourner at Albany, stopped gaily forth into the halls expecting to greet and grasp tho hand of a familiar faced friend from homo, after searching halls, corriders, staircases and peeping behind columns, he was forced to the conclusion that this time, he was: the butt of tho joke. This was! tried in several cases much to the enjoyment of those who had not yet been hit. One day a messenger called for tho Hon. A. W. Gates, stating that A. W. Casey of Ontario wished to seo him. Not without misgivings did he respond, but deci ding that the jokers could not know the name of his friend, he repaired to the corridors to be victimized as his colleagues had been beforo him. It still puzzled him to know how the name was secured until he was given a hint that Lamont was the source of their information, which proved to be a fact. The friends of Rov. J. M. Bates will giro him a donation visit at the church, on Wednesday evening March 1st. In tho afternoon of the same day will bo held a roll call and reunion.

Smith who in passing noticed a blaze through an upper window. He quickly warned the people within and by .the prompt action ot the bucket brigade after some hard labor the fire was extinguished, but not until considera ble damage was done. The room in which the fire origi nated is the room occupied by the maid-servant whose clothes were mostly consumed, as were the carpet, bedding and furni ture, An opening was burned through the east side of the house and was discovered in time to save a disastrous conflagration, as there was a strong] wind blowing at the time. It is thought that the fire originated from a match dropped upon the floor. Henry Lotze purchased a fine team of ponies in Rochester last Saturday. We expect hereafter that Main St. will be kept in a smooth condition, On Feb. 22nd., at five o'clock, Miss Carrie E. Reed, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R, T. Reed, and William J.
