SMALL sroREHoUsE BURNED
r. M. and Warren Paddock Sustain
Loss OF $3.50.

A one story storage building and its
contents owned by f. M. and Warren
Paddock and situated In the rear OF
their home on Elm street, near Put
nam, were totally destroyed by fire of
an unknown origin about $3.50 last
night. The building and contents.
which consisted OF wagon, various
farming implements, tool chest and
a quantity Of lumber, burned with un-
usual rapidity, causing loss estlmat-
ed of $3.50 The loss is partly covered
by an insurance OF $3.50.
The fire was discovered by some
unknown man, who, after telling Mr..
Paddock OF the fire, disappeared down
the railroad tracks, which runs cioge
to the storage building. Mr.. Paddock
caused an alarm 10 be rung In from
box 81. Two companies responded
promptly, but 1t was at once evident
that the building could not be saved
A second alarm brought out other APP
paratus, but not before the fire was
practically extingulshed. The Stark
hose company was first on the scene
but the Putnams beat them out In
getting a stream on the fire by great
er celebrity in connecting with by
drant.
It is thought that the fire was
caused by the sparks from train
which had passed shortly before the
blaze was discovered.
