1t is the general impression of those
who have seen the performances of the
Garcinetta family Of acrobats at Dock
stader's this week that nothing better
of the kind has ever been seen in this
city. There are seen in the company
four ladies and three gentlemen. and
one is as proficient as the other. The
ladies appear in evening dress and the
men in dress suits, and in view of the
fact that most acrobats are dressed es-
pecially for their work. this dressing
of the Garcinettas would appear to
make their work all the more remark
able. In pyramid work, tumbling and
mid-air evo,utions the performances Of
the Garcinetta family stands out as the
very best among the acrobatic feats of
the year. Other features of this weeks

Ways paint store, the Gazette build
ing, the Humiston block and the old
SchOverling warehouse would have
gone, and probably the freight house,
the Warner tobacco warehouse, the
F. R. Green grain building and other
structures would have fallen in the
path of the fire demon. Editor Bolles
and his neighbors can we'll afford to
unite in making the brave fire fighters
from Danbury a handsome present.
At O'Clock few people thought it
would take the north side of Bank
street, and many merchants carried
goods from their burning stores to the
buildings on the north side, which
were later burned. =
THE LACK OF WATER WAS PIT1ABLE
After the Danbury engine was attach
ed it practically drew all the water in
the pipes, and while they could not be
in but one place at time, the tire
ragged on in other sections unchecked
for the reason that the tiremen' S hands
were tied; they had no water. a
prominent citizen told BEE reporter
that there were times during the lire.
say about II o'clock, when ii number
of buildings on the north side of Bank
street could have been saved by IA
single stream of water.
There were various places during
the tire where heroic work was done
and the Old-fashioned bucket brigade
came into service, but at no point Was
harder and more effective work done
than at the building of Ackley, Hatch
= Marsh. Notwithstanding the fact
that the sheds a few feet north of the
store and the barn in the rear were
burned, the long store building was
| saved. The employees of the firm
WORKED LIKE HEROES,
and as the genial James Marsh said to
The Newtown bee., 1902-05-09

with New Milford village it might be
said that the territory burned over
comprised four-tifthS of the business
section of the place, lying in a square.
The burned territory comprised, in
Guiding Bank street, not far from four
acres of land.
SAVINGS BANK WILL REBUILD AT ONCE.
1t is hard at this date to get at the
exact loss, as in many Instances the
adjustelS have not completed their
work. The Savings bank block was
valued at about 90, 600, with insurance
of 5000. Mr. Randall says they will
reb6ild at once. They will tenn
porarily open in the Law library
at the Town hall. Cashier
Griffith of the Pahquioque bank Of
Danbury made visit to New Milford,
personally to tender to Mr. Randall,
and the National bank folks also, the
use of their vault, and the courtesy
was greatly appreciated.
WILL NOT REBUILD UNLESS ASSURED
BY THE WATER co. THAT THEY WILL
FURNISH ADEQUATE FIRE PROTEC-
TON.
A. H. Mcmahon was at Wing Sta
ton, N. Y, when the fire broke out,
and did not learn of the sad news until
the next day. He had Just put in an
immense stock of goods for the fall
and winter trade, his whole building
being literally 'chuck full" In regard
to rebuilding he says.he is all at sea
but now does not think that he will
rebuild unless assured by the Water
CO. that they will make an effort tx

been too greedy after their fat divi-
dends. For years the fire engineers
have reiterated the need of larger
main and more water for fire prOtec-
tiOn, but their requests have been
calmly turned down. Said prominent
citizen to BEE representative: LAS
[ understand it the Water Co. was
organized originally for fire projection,
and the fire district subscribed heavily
protection. But the trouble has been
the company has devoted it's energies
to supplying the domestic demand, at
the expense, as it appears to-day, of
the safety OF village property. People
are now talking seriously the question
of public ownership as remedy for
this trouble, and can you blame them:
People now feel seriously the mistake
Of rejecting the borOuy h charter some
years since, as the powers granted
them under that charter would have
been very useful in this emergency"
While the fire is Il serious matter fol-
New Milford and will cause business
loss and inconvenience on all sides.
The BEE hopes and believes that it
WILL RESULT IN BETTER NEW MIL
FORD.
Let the Water Co. call a meeting OF
it's Stockholders at once and give some
assurance to the business men by
voting to put in large water main 81
that the question of scarcity may for
ever be thing OF the past. Bank
street should be widened and the build
ings constructed of brick. II the
Water Co. takes Il bold and public
spirited action in the matter they can
move the lever which will result in a
modern and up-to-date village, with
ample water to ward off any future
disaster.
Great crowds of sight seers thronged
the burned district on Tuesday and
Wednesday, Sherman, Washington,
Roxbury, Kent and Cornwall Bridge
being down en-. mass. On Tuesday
afternoon the walls of the Randall
building on Main street were attacked
with dynamite in order that no acct
dent might occur as the result of fall
ing walls.

and the fire might possibly have been
confined to the building that burned,
or at least to the south side Of Bank
street. AS it was the hOsemen were
hardly able to get one stream of any
force on the blaze, and the doom of
the village was seen in the early part
OF the fire.
= The fire gained with such frightful
rapidity that at about O'Clock a mes

assistance. : Enterprising Mayor Peix
Of the Hating City at once ordered a

At this time

and the blocks on the north side were
burning tiercely. The prompt and
effective work of the fire fighters from
Danbury saved the fire from spreading
nOrthward on Railroad street, the

floor and the yard being given up for
store purposes. Mr. Booth is a heavy
property owner, owning the block &C.
cupied by his firm, and that of Kinney
& Co. Mr. Booth, with characteristic
energy, says he will proceed to rebuild
at once. This is the third time Mr.
Booth has been through the fire. In
regard tn the Water Co., he says the
company has done as well as it col Id
under existing conditions. He thinks
the directors will do what they can to

and removed the millinery stock, the
