 and is Gutted.

and is Gutted.
 Ansonia, Sept, 1.-Two fires which broke putin the Oherman block, cor ner of Main and CoIburn streets, to- day caused damages estimated at be- tween $14,0eo and $l6,D00. Fire was first discovered in the building early shis morning, and beforesit was under control the building was gutted.
 The flames communicated to the new block of Philip Cohen adjoining, causing considerable damage.
 The Oiderman building, which was owned by Max Olderman. contained four stores and a dozen tenements All were occupied, most of the tenants being foreigners with unpFonouncea- ble names. Some of these escaped from the building with difficulty. and, carrying no insurance, lost all they possessed.
 This noon fire again broke out in the building and the fire department worked two hours before it was eX- tinguished. The New Haven and Waterbury trolley cars were delayed by the fire, and running schedules be- came very much disarranged.

TWO RESCUE TWO.
Woodmont Sailors Capsized and Were
 Taken from Upturned Dory.

After they had been clinging to an overturned dory for half an hour, R. J. Kennedy, Shelf senior and Henry Hazel were rescued by Harold P. Kel- logg, Yale 'O7 and Norton Russell, who were among the summer colonists at Woodmont to witness the accident, Tuesday afternoon.
 There was an instant rush for the boats to render aid. Russell and Kel- logg were the first to start, and the rest of the colony remained on the beach, watching them drive the row boat over the half mile that separated them from the dory. They found Ken nedy and Hegel clinging to the boat. dragged them in and brought them safely to shore.

Many legal complications will no doubt ensue unless the towns which have already asked state aid in the building of new roads hold other meetings. In the town meeting last evening the question was brought up by c. A. Harrison whether the meet ing was legal OF not, as no notice had been published in any newspaper hav- ing a circulation in the borough. How ever, the meeting was held, The law went into effect September 1 and the amended section reads in part as fol- | lows:
 Notice of town meeting shall be given by setting upon the slgnposts in the town and at such other place or places as may be designated as herein after provided, a printed warning signed by the selectmen, or a major ity of them, and by publishing a like warning In a newspaper published in said town or having a circulation therein, such posting and such publi- cation to be at least five days pre- vious to holding the meeting, includ- ing the day the notice Is given, but not including the day of holding said meeting"
 Another portion says:
 Notice of a meeting of city, bor- ough or school society shall be given by setting upon the signposts within the limits of such city, borough or society, or at such place or places as may be designated by special charter provision, a written or printed warm ing signed by the mayor of clerk in the case of a city, the warden or clerk in the case of a borough, and the committee, or majority thereof, in the case of a school society, and by publishing like warning in a news- lpaper published within the limits of such city, borough or school society, or having & ejaculation therein, at least five days previous to holding the meeting, including the day that notice is given but not including the day of holding said meeting; provided that the committee of a school society hav- ing an enumeration of less than one hundred may. on giving notice by posting, in it's discretion, omit the publication of the warning N a news- paper as above describedh

WHEN THE FISH HURDLE.
Man Wanted to Be Far Away From
the Danger Spot.

OF course at this season the usual
run of fish stories" are going the
rounds. But one relating to the
hurdling prowess of bass and trout,
which was told in all earnestness the
other night, takes first prize.
Fish always go up stream in the
springtime," said the fisherman, land
scarcely anything will keep the bass
and trout from getting near the head
waters. / have known these two
species to jump over a dam eight to
ten feet high and continue their up
stream journey"
what was that you said?" re-
marked a friend, who also claims to
be somewhat of an angler. The man
repeated his assertion that he had
seen fish jump over dams eight to ten
feet high, and as there was no one
present to deny the hurdling abilities
of the fish, the only challenge to his
remarkable statement was laugh by
all hands.
well, trust / will never be on the
top Of Niagara falls when one of those
hurdling fish you speak Of comes fly
ing through the air and hits me in the
eye," remarked the friend. That
broke up the fish stories for that even
ing, but the man still insists that
ten-foot dam can be hurdled by either
@ bass or trout
