STUBBORN FIRE.
Yesterday in a Clothing and Shoe Store
 on State Street.

Yesterday in Clothing and Shoe Store
 on State Street.
 Fire broke out yesterday morning at 10:30 in the clothing store of l.. Hour witz at 1SS State street. Before 1t was extinguished much damage had been done. The blaze was probably of ac- cidental origin, starting from an over heated stove in the rear of the store. Dr. Bernstein of Dow street was in the store at the time buying some clothing for his son. The boy saw blaze in the rear of the store and gave the alarm. In a few minutes the store was filled with thick black smoke. The pro- prietor could not carry out any of his goods Box 23 as rung by a colored man who was near and in remarka- bly short time the fire department was at work. A line of hose was intro duced through the rear of the store and two at the front door. The blaze would not yield to the streams of water and the smoke prevented the firemen from entering the building for some time. The building Is located in the center of q block and upstairs live a number of Arabian families and colored people. Detectives Ward and McGrath, who were near when the alarm was rung, went through the railways filled with smoke and though So choked several times that they had to open windows to get air, succeeded in getting all the residents out.
 MT. Hourwitz said that his stock, which included both clothing and shoes, was worth about SC, 900 and he had s1,- 300 insurance on it. The damage to the stock will amount to about 5000. Con- siderable damage was done upstairs by smoke and also in the restaurant next door at 190.
 On the corner is the liquor store of William J. Sheehan, but the damage there was trifling.
 Two horses which had been left un- hitched on State street ran away, add ing to the general excitement. On the way to the fire the carriage occupied by Chief Fancher and Assistant Chief Perkins knocked down an old gentle man who was trying to get out of the way of another piece of the apparatus. He was only slightly hurt, however. The damage done to the building was slight.

Useful Christmas Presents for Ladies
 at This Popular Star
 The exclusive line of ladies waists. jackets, suits and furs handled by w. H. Hamilton, formerly Hamilton x Co.,, S53 Chapel street, is finer than ever, and every purchaser in New Haven should take the opportunity before Christmas to get a glance at the display at that up-to-date and leading store.
 The garments carried are, as usual of the kind that are wanted by the high grade purchasing public, and certainly MT. Hamilton has selected a choice stock. MT. Hamilton has carried on the business alone since MT. Murray retired from the firm on December 10. and he is giving every detail his most careful attention.
 The Christmas shopping this year Is brisk, and it would be a surprise to many to know of the large amount of gifts in the line carried by Hamilton, that are being purchased. Things seem to tend to useful rather than ornament al gifts this year, and for that reason furs, waists, etc, are proving about the most popular articles on the market for those contemplating gift sure to be appreciated by the recipient.
