Especial to The Farmer.)

Fairfield, July 15-The adjusters of on the recently burned Rock building,
 were in town yesterday viewing the ruins and conferring with the owners of the building and stock. ". c. Kin sella, whose stock was entirely con- stunned, held policies for s3,000 in dif- ferent companies. Daniel Rock car ried $4,000 on the building and s1,500 on his stock. aAs the loss was total the insurance will probably be paid in full without question. There are a. dozen different theories concerning the cause of the fire, but none of them have any substantial evidence behind them. It will always be a mystery. Daniel Rock, owner of the building, was in town yesterday, and although not well he gave attention to the bus mess in hand and conferred with t6S adjusters and did other business. He expressed his appreciation of the sym pathy the people had expressed for him during his long illness, and also for the efforts in his behalf at the time of the fire. He Is grateful to Frank Saum who offered him the use of his store as headquarters until he can re- build:~ He has established his head quarters and his telephone there, and will do his business from there. He announces that he will rebuild imned- lately. Mir Kinsella will have one of the stores in the new building, and will resume his business, interrupted by the fire

 MISS IneOQOTd CflllQ WHO lS eHSdSc% in missionary work in Labrador, brought with her a collection of fur clothing when she came home to pass her vacation. The collection was on exhibition at the lawn festival for the benefit of the Fresh Air fund, and at- tracted much attention.
 The auto-chemicaI was brought back to the fire house, last night, after be- ing repaired at the shop of the Bridge port Vehicle Company in Fairfield avenue. It is now believed to be up to the notch in every particular. Many regretted that the machine was away at the fire in Rocks block, but it would have been of little use on ac- count of the start the fire had obtain ed before it was discovered.
 The leaves on the trees within q radius of 200 feet of the fire at Rocks block are scared and wilted by the in- tense heat. It is hoped, however, that none of the trees viii die, for they add much to the attractiveness of the street.
 i. John McGarry will claim insuTance for the scorching of his blacksmith shop. and the insurance company will repaint the building.
 It is suggested that the work of the constbale will soon be sup by a night watchman to pa- trol the streets after the stores close, and prevent fires and other Iawless- ness.
