The Summer residence at Ste. Agathe of Alfred Eaves, Montreal, was completely destroyed by fire Sept. 10. Mr. Eaves, who was preparing to leave in the morning for New York when the fire broke out, had a narrow escape from being burnt with the premises. The cook, who was in the upper part of the house, had all she could do to get out in time. Mrs. Eaves escaped by jumping from the balcony. A large quantity of clothes, as well as jewelry and personal effects, was destroyed. Nothing was saved, and the loss, which is quite heavy, is only partly covered by insurance.

Last Thursday the firm had a pleasant surprise when a delegation of about 30 bluejackets filed into the establishment on Notre Dame St. and expressed their gratitude in few but appropriate words for the generosity of the donors in presenting such valuable prizes.
