 Box 9, located at the corner of North Main and North streets, was pulled last evening. The supposed fire was in new building on Branch street but when the department reached there they found that the trouble was due to the fact that q stove had been lighted in the building for the pur- pose of drying the plaster and smoke being noticed issuing from all sides some one thought the place was on fire and sent in an alarm.
 At the meeting of the Naturalist club last night the principal topic dis cussed was the weaver, a member of the feathered family of South Africa. The bird was represented as bold little fellow, bearing q strong resem- blance to our own pugnacious sparrow. No doubt the weaver can fight, too. Everything racy of South African soil is game, and if anybody doubts this he needs but ask the Dublin Fusiliers, the Yorkshire brigade or the Scotch Highlanders.

He arrived in Bridgeport shortly before noon and went to the emergency hos pital, where Dr Ivers attended him. Allen was badly bruised, but no bones were broken. Later he went to his home in Westport.
