Hyde Park. April 17.-Twenty families
in this village nre homeless and property
valued 1T 10000 lies in ashes to-
night as the result Of the worst
fire the place has ever known.
Among the destroyed buildings are tho
county tall. court house. jaiers resi-
dcnce, congregational Church and the
residence of II. NJ Mcfarland. The mag
nincent shade trees that lined the main
street were also leveled by the flames
and that thoroughfars Is a mass OF de-
bris. tangled wires and abandoned and
half burned household furniture.
The fire originated at the county jail
at about II 30 a. m, stovepipe ignit-
ing the woodwork OF the second floor.
This building was soon in flames and
from here the fire was communicated to
the adjoining court house and Jailer
Howard Stevens's residence. by this
time the confagration was hopelessly be-
yond control Of the local fire depart
ment. Burning brands were carried to
buildings on both sides OF the street and
the wholesale destruction was rapidly
carried on by the prevailing north wind
Of hurricane dimensions.
The fire department. inadequate at
best, were delayed about 10 minutes be-
fore the pumping apparatus was In full
operation. Before this time had expired
it was impossible to throw a stream
higher than the first story of the court
house and the men could do little but
helplessly look on.
Hurry calls We're sent to Morrsvllle,
stowe and Johnson and these towns re-
| sponded pron1tly. their work probably
saving what remains of the village. With
the combined efforts of the four depart
| ments the fire was finally placed under
| control at about five o'clock just be
| fore it reached the residence of Senator
| G. S. Page and the Hotel Phoenix. BY
| this time. however. 10 buildings had been
burned.
The fire was not confined to the village.
| Burning brands were carried n half
mile to the farm buildings Of Daniel
Smith. which We're destroyed. and over a
mile to sugar orchard, which
| is still burning at a late hour tonight
