TWo pIREs IA sT NIaHr

The alarm OF fire from box s5 shortly
after six o'clock last evening called the
Westbrook IRE department to a lively
blaze in the basement OF s. r. HopkIn-
sons grocery store on Main street. The
IRE caught In some rubbish and was
caused BY an oil lamp explosion. The
basement and store were rapidly filed
with smoke so that the nremen latored
under disadvantage IN fighting the fire,
but they soon had the blaze under control
and Ia about half an hour the all out
alarm sounded. The. damage to the stock
on the street floor will amount TO several
hundred dollars as the goods must have
been thoroughly permented BY smoke.
The second alarm of fire was sounded
from box Ss at 10 2s o'clock.
This fire WAS in the small building in
the rear of the old hosiery mill now
owned ana occupied by Danas warp
mills. The building 10 located near the
dye house owned by the Danas and was
filed with COTTON waste. The fire made
a lively blaze and for time 10 looked as
though other property would be endan-
gsred. Chief Engineer Byrne Is inclined
to believe that this fira was of incend larry
origin as the fire when the department
arrived seemed 10 be almost wholly on
the top of the waste heap and gradually
worked Its way downward. The damage
to this property will probably be about
5000. 1t is not known as TO whether there
was any insurance on this property but
1t Ii safe to assume that tho loss will be
amply covered.
This makes the fifth alarm that West
brook has had since last Thursday night
and three Of the fires have without doubt
been the work OF an inoendiary.
