Tauranga, October 1. A largo fire occurred at Archdeacon Brown’s last night. The kitchen and store-room, full of goods lately from England valued at £2OO, were destroyed. The fire originated from a servant leaving a candle burning while in the dining room at prayers. The buildings are detached. There was no wind, or nothing could have saved the main buildings. Owing to the splended supply of water from under ground brick reservoirs, and all hands being at work, the fire was got under in two hours. Dunedin, October 1.
