Go Back for More Hose.

With the firemen practically helpless,
the automobile hurried back for more
hose. In the meantime Hose Company
No. 8, of Manhattan Park, reached the
flames with more hose, but the barns
had burned about all there was to
burn.
1t was due to the efforts of Rade-
macher and the Feins that most of the
cattle were saved. They worked until
they could stand the neat no longer, and
were finally compelled to abandon the
three COWS and two horses. The cries
of the tortured animals stirred the
crowd that had gathered almost to a
frenzy.
A bulldog was discovered, as it
seemed, almost in the midst of the
flames, struggling at it's chain. BY
the use of pixies the fremen finally
got it free, out not till most of the
hair was burned from its body.
The loss is about $4,000. The insur-
ance companies had refused to take a
risk on the property.

SUSPECT
IS HELD FOR BIG
IRWNGT0N FIRE
Farmland Is Thought by Police
to Have Set Buildings
Ablaze.
THREE COWS AND TWO
HORSES ARE BURNED
Two Barns and Several Out.
Q buildings Are Totally
Destroyed.

That h %Irvington barns and stables
destroyed by fire last night were set
on fire by a farmland seeking revenge
for real or fancied wrongs. is the be-
lief OF the Irvington police, and Philip
Feline, who rented the place from Vitus
J. Masnichi, of this city, the owner.
Frank Flynn is under arrest, and Is
ton. He is a farmland and slept in
n of the barns.
The places destroyed in the midnight
blaze were two barns, a big chicken
house, a pigsty and a shed.
Three cows and two horses and a
large number of chickens were burned,
together with farm implements, hay.
etc. About twenty-five cows and three
horses were saved before the flames
reached the terror stricken animals.
Firemen Delayed.
A series of errors delayed the new
paid firemen to such an extent that the
buildings were down and still there
was no stream on the flames.
The flames were first discovered by
Albert Rademacher, a neighbor, who
was returning home. He turned in an
alarm from box A at Prospect street
and Union avenue, near the fire. The
alarm received in the fire headquarters
was interpreted to read 81, at the cor
ner of Clinton avenue west n Stuy-
vesant avenue. The big automobile
truck made a dash for that place, GO
ing directly away from the fire. When
they reached that place they found out
their mistake by the whistle that blew
the second and general alarms from
box A.
The firemen reached a hydrant a
quarter of a mile from the flames, and
through an error attached the hose to
1t instead of to one almost directly in
front of the burning barns. When they
came to stretch the hose they found
that it would not reach. Half an hour
was lost md the blaze that had been
little more than a bonfire, spread with
great rapidity from one structure to
another. until the places were a mass
of flames that nothing could have ex-
tinguished.

This is a bungalow. There are good
bungalows and there are poor ones,
mere make-shifts that are by courte'
sy called bungalows when shack would
be much more fitting name.
Bungalows are numerous in the Pa
ciflc coast states, but they have never
been taken seriously in the eastern
sections of the United States. One
reason is that they are not so easily heat
ed as two-story houses, because warm
air naturally goes up and the upstairs
Of house is warmed without much
extra expense. Another reason is that
two-story houses are cheaper when
the amount of material is figured up
against the cubic space inclosed. The
season for this is that the same foun-
dation and the same roof serves two
floors as well as one, but bungalows
have some advantages and as they
are becoming better known they are
better appreciated.
1t is easy to keep house in bunga-
low, because the rooms are all on
one floor and woman has no running
up and down stairs. except TO the eel.

To be right the bedrooms and the
bathroom must be shut away entirely

galows so built that you have to go
through the living room or dining
room TO get to a bedroom or the bath

live in them get tired of the arrange,
ment. Then you don't want a hallway
