ELECTRIC WIRES ON
 NAILS STARTED FIRE
Short Circuit at Residence of Reuber
 BIinderman on Forest Street.

At 7.55 o'clock Friday evening an alarm from box IA corner of West Main street and Thames street, called out the fire department for a small blaze in the house at No. Forest street owned by Reuben Blinderman and occupied by MT. Bnrderman and MT. and Mrs. Louis Itkend. The blaze was confined to the attic of the house. which is two and a half story wooden frame building.
 The department made a fast run and when the firemen arrived on the scene the fire was burning quite briskly. Three lines of chemical were rushed into the house and used with good effect while a stream of water was used on the roof, but no water was taken inside the house. The fire was soon under control and the recall was rung about fifteen minutes after the alarm had been sent in. Just as the fremen were starting to pick ur the alarm for the fire in Durkee lane was pulled in from box 33. Captain E. s. Stinson of the auto chemical got his men together in record time and they made fast getaway for tht scene of the second fire.
 To all appearances the fire in MT Blinderman's house had been smouI- dering for some time before its dis covery. There was no one at home 1T the Blinderman apartments at the time. Mrs. Itkend, who lives upstairs smelled smoke and Investigating found that the house was on fire. She rar out of the house calling fire ana someone of the several people whC were passing nearby ran to the boz and pulled in the alarm. It is claimed that the electric wiring in the house was defective and that the fire re- suited from short circuited wires whicr were strung along the wall on nails The attic was considerably damaged and the furniture in the rooms below suffered from water and smoke.

HOUSE IN DURKEE
 LANE CAUGHT FIRE.
Probably From Bed Too Near Over heated StoVe-Mr. and Mrs. William Austin Were Both Away at the Time.

When the call came while the fire men were still at the Forest street fire, they left their lines there and got away with all possible speed.
 Chief Howard L. Stanton was first away in his buggy, but he was pass ed before he had gone far on West Main street by c. " Pendleton, -Jr, who had Assistant Chief Bernhard 6 in his motorcycle side car. After them came the Chemical Co No. l, from the Main Street staS~N The Steamer company had already turned back from the Forest street fire before tLe second alarm was sounded so that they we among the first to. arrive at the Hartley house fire. The Chemi- cal Go. No. from the Falls responded to the alarm also.
 The police stretched fire line in Durkee lane and kept the big crowd out of the way of the flremen.
 MT. Hartley said he had about $1,- coo insurance on the house.
 The place has lately received con- siderable notoriety through two raids made upon it by the sclice as a dis orderly house.
 While the f1remen were engaged in coiling up their lines after the recall had been sounded Friday evening at the fire at the Blinderman house at No. Forest street another alarm was rung in for another fire. this time
 
 a blaze that had broken out in the house in Durkee lane owned by Joseph E. Hartley of No. 52 Franklin street.
 It was caused probably by fire com municating from a stove that was near a bed in a roo mover: the kitchen, This room and the room adjoining 1t, as well as the hallway, were we'll burned out but the fire was kept from reaching other parts of the house by the use of chemical and three streams of water.
 However. it crept up and smouldered in the peak of the house. which is a frame one, and about Il o'clock VOL umes of smoke coming from there caused another call for the. fire de- pertinent, the autochemical respond ing and using chemical.
 At the time the fire broke out, about $40 o'clock, no one was at home at the house. MT. and MrA William Austin have been conducting it as a rooming house for colored people but Mrs. Austin was at the theater and Mir. Austin was in New London
 Mir. Hartley was at his own honr and was told by his son that the house was on fire. He was one of the first to arrive and kicked in a door So

SALES OF RED CROSS
 SEALS IN STORES And at Postoffice-1s so5 Has Been Reported to Miss De ceIIes as Sold.


 Miss Mary De Celles. whose services have been secured by Mrs. Robert w. Perkins to have charge of girls placed at the postoffice and at various other places in the city, reported that up to Thursday night 13,S05 Red Cross seals had been distributed in this city in this way and that practically all of these have been sold. She has been assisted in the work by Miss Ruth Kind. Miss Isabelle Fenton and Miss Mabel Crumb at the local poStof1ce. Altogether these three young ladies have sold 2.S00 seals. Miss Kind hay ing sold 1.200 Miss Fenton 500 and Miss Crumb 1000. At the Boston store three afternoons this week seals were offered to the shoppers by Miss Mary Ellen Coughlin, and Miss Mary Foley sold seals at the Porteous 6 Mitchell sold practically 1000. Other places where the seals have been put on sale and reports received are: Norwich Commercial school 1000, with Miss Theresa Hinlerbrand at J. H. Davis store, Laurel Hill, 300, Mrs. Edwin Fay 100 and George Weller, Taftville 100. Additional places where seals have been placed but no reports rem dered are Miss Jewett's shorthand school, Rathbone'S drug store with Miss Mary Clapp. at Sevin's drug store with Miss Fife Henderson and W1Ln MISS frecneCLe al the WaureSan house.
 Miss De Celles suggests that every customer who makes purchases at any of the stores where the seals have been placed purchase a few of the seals In this way the number sold will in- crease materially. Every purchase however small, is appreciated by those in charge of the work, for the small purchases soon amount to good sized totals. This is the fifth year that Miss De Celles has had charge of this di- vision of the Red Cross seal sales.
