Ridgeheld, Conn.,, March 11-An in cendiary at work in this town is held responsible for a fire which greatly damaged the large residence just re- modelled by Barton Hepburn at High posite MT. Hepburn's place. The fire started in the attic and spread through the upper rear part causing a loss of about $5,O00. The house, of colonial design, is of fourteen rooms. It had been unoccupied since last sum mer and in the meantime MT. Hep burn had purchased it and had it somewhat changed over. The fire men, who had hard time in reaching the place because of the condition of the roads, saved all the household eff fecte.
 Yesterday, there was a fire which destroyed Sunset View Hotel, three miles outside the borough belonging to Thomas .Kiernan. Everything was lost including $75O in currency, besides jewelry and valuable papers.

Washington, March 11-President Wilson has found the civil service rules embarrassing already. Almost the first person he thought of in the matter of appointments after he had sent the names of his cabinet to the senate was Miss SaIome Tarr, who was one of his stenographers at Tren- ton. He suggested to the new cabi- net that he would like to find nice place in one of the departments for Miss Tarr. After looking around a bit the cabinet officers have reported to President Wilson that every place seems to be under the civil service and that unless he appoints Miss Tarr by executive order, setting aside the civil service rules, he will have trou- bIe placing her in a government job. Miss Tarr is said to be one of the best stenographers and typewriters in the country. She is only twenty years old. She has filed an action against Drake's Business College, in Jersey City, alleging that she has been damaged exactly $25,OOO worth by the schools exploitation of the fact that she learned stenography there. They used her picture for advertising pur- poses.
