Mayor Thayer Would Like to See Him Play Santa Claus, but No Funds Available.

For the purpose, evidently. of mak- ing a flight over the state and stop ping at several cities, J. P. Catlin, manager for Harry M. Atwood, avia- tor, is making an effort to bill him in a number of places this winter, and is asking what Inducements can be offered by cities to have him stop with his flying machine some Satur- day afternoon

FIRE IN THEATER BUILDING
 CAUSED MUCH EXCITEMENT
Audience Left Quietly as Performance Was Going On-Biaze in Rubbish in
 Cellar Under Second Story Entrance.

Soon after the performance at aPolfs opened on Monday evening smoke be- gan to fill the house, and it was evil dent that theer was a fire fin the build ing William Perry hastened to the central fire station and Engine Co., No. quickly responded, and it was some minutes before the location of the fire could be determined
 Fearing that the blaze might burst out suddenly. Chief Stanton requested Manager Saunders to dismiss the au- dtence, whfc hhe- did, explaining to them that there was a slight fire, but there need be no haste in leaving, as there was no immediate danger. The audience left the building quietly and without any confusion, while the or chestra played and Fay Baker started her dance. which was later a part ot the play After being outside few minutes, the fire being located and the doors and the audience returned and saw the completion of the show
 The fire was found in a cellar at the northwest corner of the building, un- der the hallway at the entrance to the Norwich Commercial school which is on the second floor of the theater building The blaze was amongst a quantity of papers in the cellar and, being beyond the capacity of a tank of chemical, the big tank in the wagon was brought into use. and a line of hose was stretched.
 The ffire was soon out, but the pa pers were thoroughly overhauled. it being necessary to take up much of the flooring ae it was impossible to get into the cellar from the hallway, except through a scuttle without lad der or staids. This scuttle was locat- ed in a small room intended for a box office for the upper hall and through which it is supposed the papers were thrown, as there was a quantity of them in the office The damage was slight.
 How the fireA started is not known, but it was in a bad location had it gained much more headway. No alarm was sounded, but there were several hundred who gathered in the street attracted by the response of Engine Co No. 1. It was an exciting opening for ''Trilby," and gave rather a smoky flavor to the remainder of the per fOrInapce.

 LAUREL HILL BRIDGE.
Employees of Berlin Bridge Company Here-Not Known How Extensive They Will Be.

First Selectman A. W. LilIlbridge has had Engineer Hanna of the Berlin Bridge company here looking over the several iron bridges of the town for the purpose of determining if any re- pairs were needed. It was found that all were in eood condition except the Laurel Hill bridge. and there employees are engaged in making repairs. the ex- tent of which is not yet known. On Monday employees of the Berlin com pany began removing the old plates along each side of the bridge which had rusted through and in addition to replacing these with new ones some of the lattice work on the sides over the railroad track will be replaced. En- gineer Hanra will come here again for the purpose of giving the bridge a more thorough inspection. He was un- able to go underneath it at this time and until he does it will not be known how many repairs will have to be made.
 A few years ago the large columns at the Shetucket street end were cut down and new sections set in. but those are all right. and it is not ex- pected that any of that kind of work will have to be done now. It will not be known until after thorough test ing what the full extent and cost of the repairs will be.
