MILTON ASTIR
AFTER BIG FIRE
Plans Already Under Way
For Rebuilding the Busi-
ness Section

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del. Aug. 14-Milton is all
ready planning 70 rebuild after yes
terday's disastrous fire that laid waste
the business section.
The most thrilling feature of the
destructive fire which wiped up prac-
tically all of the town of Milton south
OF BroadSill creek, was the appearance
Of women as fire fighters.
Women and girls mounted hand en-
gines, climbed ladders. scaled walls
and hustled buckets both full and
empty. In fact the women and girls
seemed to be a bunch of nerves. Their
pluciiiest work was the rescue of the
Milton NJ. i. Church. while burning,
from the flames and the saving OF
that edifice with but slight damage.
Automobiles. also proved efficient
aids to the fire fighters, for one of the
Georgetown hose carriages was
brought 10 Milton, a distance OF eight
miles, in a jiffy, by being mounted on
automobile trucks. Automobiles also
brought in extra food supplies and re
lief firemen from other towns while
the fire ragged.
The fireproof building of the Sussex
Trust, Title and Safe Deposit COM
pany undoubtedly stopped the pro-
press of the fire and aided the fire.
men in saving the three big packing
houses and lumber yards in the patti
OF the flames. AS il was. it is esti-
mated to-day that s125,O0O will cover
the loss sustained in the fire.
With tho clearing up of the smolx;
and the restoration of order wher,
chaos reigned all the morning, it il
ascertained that not more than fift,
are homeless. About fifteen of tn,
buildings destroyed were occupied botl
as stores and dwellings.
The injuries sustained during tn,
day were as follows:
Wflford White, son Of Prothonotar,
White, arm broken by falling beam
Joshua Gray, arms and face burned
John Black, head cut and arms ant
face burned.
The Kent County Insurance Com
pany Of Dover. held some insurance
but was not a heavy loser.
The last big fire In Milton was on De
