 ines Would Burn.

New Milford, Dec 1.-The townsfolk had fire scare last night while the home of Thomas Virtu, three miles south of here, was burning. The new town buildings are next to the Virtu farm, and in the high winds the blaz- ing brands were sh0wered upon the latter. MT Virtu was not at home when his home was burned, but Mrs Virtu and the children succeeded in saving some of the furniture. Super intendent Dickson of the town farm sent word for help and First Select man Staub responded with fifteen men who formed a bucket brigade and saved Virtu's barns and the town farm building, although it was struggle for a long time. during which many more fire fighters responded from the town. Virtu's loss is S1,000, without insurance. He bought the farm, which was the Leander Miller place, year ago, and invested all his savings in it so the loss falls heavily upon him.
