from the livery stable but the place
was not damaged to any great extent
and was fully covered by insurance.
The building adjoining the livery,
stable was formerly owned by W. R.
Crane and George L. Dufour, Of Wes'
ton. On last Wednesday Mr.. Crane
disposed Of his interest to Mr.. Smith.
No one knows Just how the blaze
originated. Mr.. Smith owns the gas
engine in the rear which furnishes
light for the hotel. Shortly before s
o'clock a fuse blew out leaving a por-
tion Of the hostelry in darkness. Mr..
Smith went to the engine and shut
1t down while the repair was being
made. After the repair was made he
went down to; turn it on when some
thing again went wrong. 81
Helagain shut the power off and re.
turned to the hotel. Not five minutes
later, the repairs being completed
he went to the engine shed and dis
covered a small blaze on the floor
near the partition. It is very probable
that some one heard Mr. Smith In the
dark engine room and as. he Is SC
familiar with the place that he never
carries a light any one would thinl
that a marauder was around. In the
intervals Of his visits to the place
some one lighted match that caused
the trouble. slsf
When he saw the flames Smitl

flames gained rapid headway. They
soon burned their way through the
partition to8the barn. Almost at the
time the fire was discovered. Driver
Blaine Roggess Of the Central Sta.
tion turned into Washington street
from Bridge and saw the blaze. Just
at this time some one called to turn
in an alarm but Boggess ran his horse
to the station and found the depart
ment ready to come.
A barrel Of oil in the engine house
exploded before the lre4 fighters ar.
rived and that gave the flames more
impetus. BY the time the department
arrived the engine house and stable
were ablaze, the flames reaching
high in the, air. Within an incredibly
short space Of time two streams Of
water were playing on the burning
district. In another three minutes
three more strings of hose were work

in the history of the city began. II
