WILLIMANTIC
JACKSON PLACE BARN BURNS.
Sparks Set Fire to Five Other Build ings and Roof of No. MiII-Story That Blaze Came from Boys Smok- ipo Near Hay

fire started shortly after one o'clock Friday afternoon in the barn on Jackson Place owned by Mrs. John F. Shea, and used by Chagnon and Bacon for the keep of their horses and wagons. The structure was in flames soon after the start emitting clouds of dense smoke which quickly caused big crowd to congregate. As 1t was at the noon hour, most of the f1remen and those who lived in the vicinity were at home or on their way to or from work, so that there were many helping hands to keep the fire from spreading to adjacent prop erty.
 The firemen soon had two streams on the building using third to wet work for them for over an hour, by which time the barn was gutted and one side had fallen in.
 In the meantime a call from the other side of the railroad tracks from property owners on that side, appriSed the department that a small house owned by Mrs Kate P Chamberlain had caught from sparks upon the roof and a number of the men hurried over with a ladder. No sooner was this blaze extingufshed than two others of the same character were seen, one on a shed the other on the roof of the double house on Union street owned jointly by Mrs Kate Chamber lain and Walter P Chamberlain. This roof caught in two places and the fire men were kept busy with one ladder shifting between the two ends of the roof until this was Subdued- A house owned by Michael Hickey on the other side of Union street was also ablaze for few moments, and E. G. Bar rows house next below the Chamber lain property, caught.
 While the men were on the roof of the Barrows house, one of them called attention to the fact that the roof of No. 2 mill of the American Thread Go. was smoking. Men in the employ of the company could be seen running about on the roof with pails of water. This was af1re in several places. so that with the sparks carrying to such distances what might have happened had the fire once gotten beyond con trol can be surmised. Only the fine work of the firemen and the watchful eyes of the entire neighborhood kept it from being a disastrous fire.
 The loss to the barn which burned is practically total It was insured for $500. The loss of Chagnon & Ba- con is estimated at $200. covered by insurance. The three horses which were their property and were in the barn were led out at the start of the blaze.
 The damage to No. ? mill and the houses on the other side of the tracks will be small, as the fires were quick ly extinguished and did not cause much loss.
 The cause of the fire is unknown. although one version was that a young boy had been smoking in the barn, and ran out crying, saying it was afire. This could not be confirmed however. The railroad tracks pass di- rectly by the structure and sparks from a locomotive might have started 1 the fire which was in the hay when l MT. Bacon discovered it.
