Two weeks ago the school board sup

the High school, but a week or more ago
he was offered position elsewhere which
seemed to him more desirable and he de-

he came Monday, taking his place as in

The opening of schools Tuesday has
been matter of interest to nearly every

children. The schools of the town, as
well as the village, start off with about
the same enrolment, in numbers, as last
year probably slight increase. One ad-

BRATTLEBORO LOCAL
BARN AND HORSES BURNED.
Fire Caused Loss of 1920 on Western
Avenue Sunday Morning-lndica-
-. $500,

Fire Caused Loss of $1,000 on Western
Avenue Sunday Mornins-lndica-
tions Point to lnoendarism.
Eight rounds of the fire alarm in the
dead of night awoke the people of
Brattleboro about 100 o'clock Sunday,
and those who looked westward saw
fire brilliantly Illuminating the sky
The alarm was rung in from box As
by l.. II. Barber, who, in passing, saw
a fire in the barn adjoining the house
of Thomas j. Knight of 80 Western
avenue. The fire had made good
Roadway when Mr.. Barber discovered
it, and he made the urgent need Of
assistance apparent by ringing the
alarm twice.
In just two minutes the combination
chemical engine and hose wagon was
ont of the steamer house, and 1t was
well on it's way before the last stroke
of the alarm sounded. Steamer No
3 followed Immediately, and then the
hose companies. The fire was too far
advanced to be stopped by the chem
ical engine, but that engine was effec-
tual in holding it in check until a
stream of water was thrown by the
steamer. The fire was soon under
control, but not until it had burned
the barn and the upper part of the ell
of the house.
In the barn were two colts owned
by Judge H. H. Wheeler, which were
also burned. The ell was so badly
damaged by fire and water that prac-
tically new one will have to be built
in it's place. The property was insur-
,J fr, L., ha ,f
JENNIE, and it is estimated that the loss
will reach about half that amount.
The house of G. w. Fisher, near the
Knight house, was at one time in dan
ger of being burned.
The origin of the fire is not known,
but there are indications that it was
incendiary. The barn was securely
locked, but adjoining the barn was a
small shed which was open and which
contained dry rowen. The fire start
ed in the rowen. There was no COM
bustible material in the shed, other
than the rowen, and that fact together
with the unreasonable hour when the
fire broke out points strongly toward
incendiarism.
After the alarm had been given and
number of people had arrived loud
explosion was heard in distant parts
of the village. Mr.. Knight formerly
had some dynamite cartridges in the
barn and he thinks one of them may
have been left there and that when
the fire reached it the cartridge ex-
ploded. The cartridge being uncon-
fined. the explosion did no damage to
property or bystanders.
The property had been sold to Liv-
eryman G. f. Gilman, and the papers
were to have been made out Monday.
