Ifs all in the knowing how Here's one

But Not Until Most of East
Berkshire Village Was
Destroyed
HOTEL GUESTS DRIVEN
OUT EARLY TODAY
Loss Was About $4,000
Cause Of the Fire Is
Not Known

East Berkshire, Sept. %. Practically
the entire business part of this little
village was swept by fire early to-day,
loss of $4,000 being sustained, but
so far as known, no lives being lost.
Seven buildings were destroyed, includ-
ing the hotel the Avon house. Fifteen
guests in the hotel had just time to
get ont after snatehing up their cloth
ing
The fire broke out at O'Clock in the
barn connected with the hotel, and the
cause is not known. 1t is said that a
man applied at the hotel for lodging
last night and was not accommodated
in the house, but was sent to the barn.
He has not been seen this morning.
The Avon house was owned by ID. w.
Paul, and was conducted by John Cash
want. Mr. Paul's loss on the house was
ss 900. with SO 800 insurance; loss on
barn and contents, $1,000; ten horses
burned to death, loss $1,000 Mr.. Cast
want figures his loss at $4,000, Two or
the horses burned to death were the
property OF the Postal Telegraph com
many. ten OF whose linemen were guests
at the hotel.
From the hotel property the flames
spread to the house and barn OF b. IL.
Combs. The buildings border on the
Missisuuoi river. but there was no equip
ment to pump the water up and onto
the property. The Combs property was
entirely consumed, the loss on the house
being 5000, and on the barn $1,000.
There We're seven horses in the barn, but
all of them were released Half OF Mr..
Comb loss is covered by insurance.
The general store Of w. s. Rublee,
and the postoffice, were in the path Of
the flames. and the building housing
them was consumed. Mr. Rubee's loss
on the store is estimated at $4,000. But
that was not all Of his loss. He had a
barn and feedstore located nearby and
the are attacked them. Both were de-
stroved, the loss being about $4,000. as
Mr.. Rublee had Just laid in quite a stock
of feed. A smaller barn of Mr. Rublee's,
used for storage OF hay, stood next in
line, and to stop the progress OF the
flames, the fre-fighters dynamited the
building and thus succeeded IN checking
the fire. although Mr. Atkins house,
located not far away, was damaged
somewhat By flames and the force OF the
explosion.
When the fire was at its height, aid
was summoned from Richford. Enosbure
and st. Albans. Material assistance was
rendered by the first two towns, but
il Was too late from st. Adams. Forty
wears ago this village experienced a sim
liar eonfagration.
Included in the Joss of the hotel prop
ertv was all the equipment of the Postal
Telegraph company, whose linemen have
been engaged in this vicinity for some
time The loss on this equipment is
estimated at $500.
