As TO the origin OF the FIRE two
theories have been advanced, one that
the fire originated in the southwest
corner OF the building by the crossing
of two electric wires: and the other
that the fire may have originated from
an electric iron that had been used
during the day. and which Is said TO
have been left burning. However. &C
corcing TO reports. no fire Is supposed
TO have been in the house aside from
that used for the electric iron. Mr.
and Mrs. Arthur Hubbard, at the time
the fire was discovered were visiting
at the home OF Mr.. William p. Hub
bard, OF HubDard's Lane, while the
children were az the home Of Alfred
Paul. at Woodsdale.
Owing TO the rapid spread OF the
flames and the intense heat as well
as the dense smoke. no furniture was
secured from the second floor. only
that OF the first floor being carried
out OF the house. The piano. clothing.
jewellery as well as other valuable
articles were consumed by the flames.
The loss In furniture and other arti-
cles probably amounted to $4,000.
The nremen were compelled to pour
water on the barn close by. in order
TO keep IL from catching fire. The
telephone pole cfose by caught fire and
the telephone wires as we'll as the
electric wire were destroyed.
The fire could be seen from nearly
every section of the pike district. II
was not long until between fifteen hun.
dred and two thousand people were on
the scene. coming from every section
OF the pike district as well as from
the city. and nearly a hundred auto
mobiles were soon on the ground.
Try 20 Steal Property.
The furniture secured from the
house was placed in the barn. A man
was caught IN the midst OF the ex-
element trying TO get away with a
suit case. but was compelled to give il
up. Deputy Sheriff Henry Frohrne.
who was on the ground. deputized Jim
Driscoll and Edward Gruber. TO keep
strict watch during the night for
anyone who might endeavor to take
anything which belonged on the
premises.

The Arthur Hubbard hone. at
Leatherwood Lane. was totally de-
suoyed b. hre last night. entailing a
loss OF over $4,000. which is covered
By about $4,000 Insurance
The IRE was discovered in the rest
dence al Sis o'clock by a number OF
children who were playing on the
lawn. They noticed the smoke and
flames coming out Of the windows
and door in the southwest corner Of
the building Mr.. Edward Ewing. a
neiEhbor residing close TO the Hub
bard home. Immediately sounded a
general alarm. The volunteer FIRE
men OF ieatherwood. Woodsdale. Full.
ton and other neiEhboring towns were
called To assist in ighting the FIRE.
While awaiting the arrival OF the FIRE
men. a bucket brigade was organized
and fought the FIRE persistently until
compelled to quit. owing to the rapid
spread Of the flames TO every section
OF the house.
The FIRE was not long IN gaining
Roadway. owing TO the fact that the
building was frame. having been built
about 65 years ago. The house was
constructed or solid two-inch planks.
consisting OF two layers. and weather
h'aAhfh ou Ahf W me w"
woodwork burned slowly. the flames
leaped high up towards the sky. and
as the heat was intense. the volunteer
firemen were unable TO render much
assistance. The streams OF water
playing on the woodwork were not
sufficient 20 have much effect in check
ing the fire. which ran It's course.
The chemical truck from the
Eleventh street hose house OF this city
was sent out. but was unable 10 rem
der much assistance as the hose would
not ~ the water pl-<s. However. the
firemen rendered valuable assistance.
As the fire spread from one section OF
the dwelling TO another and as the
flames leaped higher and higher the
fighting had TO be abandoned. owing TO
the intensity OF the heat which kept
everyone back for distance OF nearly
one hundred feet This fire. in less
than three hours had run its full
course. burning the building com
pletely to the ground. leaving nothing
remaining standing except the four
chimneys.

New Britain in common with the is suffering from an overdose of at mospheric moisture. Nature is boun- tiful and in her dispensations consults neither the likes or dislikes of man. we are willed to have rain and then more rain. Humanity grumbles and seemingly not without justice. Ex cessive moisture breeds pests and pes simism. The farmer and gardner have a plaint. Weeds grow to excess and crops threaten to rot in and on the ground. The big tobacco inter ests of the state are fearful of heavy loss, for the weed is showing evident signs of the "yellows," direct re- suit of continued wet weather and too little sunshine Fruit growers have little less to fear from the same cause. Much moisture results in too rapid growth and in consequence the fruit tends to split and burst on the trees
 
 peaches and plums, decay on the trees also sets in. Moist, sticky weather likewise proves disastrous to the pro- | prietors of shore and lake resorts. i Their patrons. finding activities cur 1 tailed to the meager pleasure of ver- l anda and indoor life, find plenty or
 time to complain. Mosquitoes form q l common topic of commiseration. This ! summer pest multiplies beyond com l putation and the city dweller is no
 stranger to it these humid days. A
 week orr so of sunshine with dry clear
 weather would be appreciated by all herea bouts, but man proposes and l God disposes.

The Eugenic Woman.
(Boston Post. )

pr. A. J. Read of the Normal School of Physical Education at Eat tie Creek, Mich., has it all settled as to the perfect, the eugenic woman O. the future. He told his discovery 70 the International Conference in Race Betterment at the Panama fair the other day.
 The ideal woman of the eugenic ago." said Professor Read, will be plump and we'll rounded, but not fat. Her complexion will be ruddy ur brown, not pale. as that of present day women, because the pale skin is a badge of disease rather than of health
 But is the present day woman pale :? We doubt it. Never were girls so ath- letic and bronzed. And isn't she plump and well. rounded-at least, a good many of her? There is said 70 be considerable of a sale for flesh re- ducers. And the same may be said of flesh builders. There are all kinds of women, always have been and probably always will be.
 The ideal woman of the eugene age' will be of varying types so long as nature has anything to say about the matter. -- ~~.*.' .'.' .''.'~

The Mexican Outlook.

Evidence is at hand to indicate that the South American republics are not only sure of the disinterestednes of the United States in it's new plans for the pacitication of Mexico but that the request for the replacement of the Watchful waiting of flabby Bryan- ism by a stronger and more resolute plan of action came from their repre- sentatlves. They not only acQuiesce in action by the United States but they wish for it and are ready to back 1t with their moral and practical SUD- port. This simplities gre atly the prob lem that the United States faces in Mexico. The chief reason for lack of action in the past WIS the fear that dras' ic treatm ent of this p1ague-sp in the peaceful Anne ican continent might be construed by the republics of South America an evidence uI imperialistic plans on the part of the United States. They are convinced now as is the civilized world, that. if we intervene in Mexico, we do so with no thought of self interest but solely for the benefit of the Mexican people now given over as helpless prey to job lot of second class bandits
 Most of the Mexican leaders them
 l that their chance of long continuing their career of destruction is passing. They are most of them ready to &C., cept the fair offer of the United , states for cooperation by them in the establlshment of peace and a stable government in Mexico and the help Of the United States in unstinted measure to the government so formed The only dissentent is Carranza. He mas denounced the plan before it has even been presented to him, taking time by the forelock to prove that ne IS the only simon pure irreconcil- aple 1t is to be presumed that lit tie time will be wasted in arguing With a man who has made up his mind not to be convinced. One last appeal will be made to him to join in the movem ent for peace. He can take It or leave it as he wishes. If ne does not accept then he will be ig- nored in the settlement of the future of Mexico. If he interferes he will pc removed from tn way, by force, IT necessary. That is the only way or dealing with Catranza. President wilson knows it now and so do the representatives of South America. He can join in the steps that are to be ture or he can stay outside and see peace esta abished without his help and against his most vigorous opposition.

HyphCnatcd Patriotism.
(Waterbury American.)

A Berlin weekly comments on the "patriotic devotion to the fatherland" of German American citizens of the United States, and says it is "above reprOach and will remain forever and ever one of the greatest recollections of these times.' This tries the pa tience of the Springfield Republican. It cannot see how any American citi- zen can be patriotically devoted to devotion to ones own country 1t asks the following pertinent ques- tons:
 Is it the German idea that Amer ican citizens can have two countries to which they may be patriotically' devoted? It is sometimes borne in upon one that not only Germans but Frenchmen, Englishmen and other Europeans still fail to conceive of this country as anything but a collection of European colonies, or a huge out post of European civilization divided into compartments corresponding to the European nationalities. The Berlin publication referred to speaks of German Americans and Anglo Americans as if the entire population were divided into those two classes. Has it never heard of Americans? Does it not know that the United, States is nearly century older than the German empire and that our

Stage Dream on Park Bench.
(New York WOrl.) )

An attra girl, who scarcely looked the twenty years she claimed, walked into the West Forty y-seventh street station and appealed to Lieuten- ant Clarkin for assistance
 She told the officer her name was Emma Role and that she lived with her father in Buffalo. For years she said she had nursed the ambition to become a famous actress. A few days ago it seemed as if her dream were about to come true, for she received a telegram from a Broadway theatrical firm offering her employment as a chorus girl at SIS week. Last Sat- urday she arrived in New York and went to the manager who had, she said, offered her job. He looked her over and said: 'I have too many girls now. Cant employ you" Her money was all gone. She had no friends, no place to go., She spent the next two nights, she said, sleeping on park benches. During this time she had no food.

Trading Thoughts.
(New Haven Journal-Courie

(New Haven Journal -Courier)
 We have frequently insisted that in all probability one of the difficulties the German government in under standing theirs, grows out of the task of making one language express &C., curately the meaning of another of different origin. An illustration IS at hand. A patriotic young English woman wrote to her lover that unless he was in the service by certain date II shall cut you dead" This translated into German made her de- claration this: T shall hack you to death." Still another illustration can be given dating back to the days of peace. A German woman was re- tained to translate one of Bernard Shaw's plays into her language. The line: 1T draw the line at that was used to express the liimt of patience. In the German it read: draw the curtain at that" which conveyed an entirely different meaning. Because there is this difficulty, both nations are exercising credta ble patience.

Rainfall in July.
Providence Journal.)


 Records of the July rainfall kept at ten government stations show consid- erable variation in precipitation throughout New England. Portland had 10.s4 inches; Boston, S.S5 inches Providence, 6:35 inches, and Block Island, 1859 inches. The most south erly part of Rhode Island thus has the distinction between the extremes of Portland and Block Island.
 The rainfall of July, however, is not record -brea king and Block Is- land was not always so dry. In July 1897, Hartford had a total of 1885 inches, and in July, 1895, Block Is- land reported S.57 inches. But the record for wetness on Block Island was made in June, 1881, when the to- tai was nearly 13 inches. Providence in September, 1907, had s.6e inches Of rain. These figures contradict & popular supposition that the rains of last month were without precedent. July, 1915, however, was sufficiently remarkable for it's downpour.

Bridgeport Post.)

EAcept in times of war the wiser pollcy IS not 10 interfere with free speecn' In the days of peace in Eu- Iope stranger might wander into iiSoe park in London and hear about
 1eis thlng in the talk line, from near oharchy to the most eXacting con- Nefsatlon The King and the Lords ooulo De damned as often as desired ana not "bobby' would interfere, ao lohg as order prevailed. That Is the part of wisdom.
 Much the same rule has been ap- pled in the Public Common at Bos- .on' On Sunday afternoon one can Hear almost any sort of doctrine ex- pounded This policy is along the line or maintaining free speech as the law provides.
 These observations are in order ill Vle" of the police interference with certain speakers near the Locomobile plant. This interference was ordered by Mayor Wilson. In our judgment It was an unwise procedure, entirely uncalled for in any way.
 The right of free speech is sacred and there is no excuse for interfering unless there is a deliberate effort to lncite to riot There is no evidence that the speaking had any such pur- pose.
 So far in these labor troubles the Workmen in Bridgeport have dis played the same good sense that has kept this city so free from the unfor tunate troubles of other industrial comm unities. Their conduct in the most recent attempt of outsiders to disturb the orderly course of events, is further evidence of their ability to deal with the situation.
 With such evidence of self-control there was no excuse for interference with free speech. even had such in reference been lawful. In our judg- ment the authorities have gone be- yond the law. Free speech is a con- stitutional right when accompanied by peaceful asaOcia tions. It is the safety valve of dem ocracy It is never good policy to interefere with safety valves

Knocking Tho Steel Car.

Some people are never sat1shed. Having forced the railroads. the sub- way lines and some of the surface trolley lines to substitute steel for wooden cars. protests against the steel cars are made because they are noiser and ride harder" For feXihility, beauty and general ocm- fort nothing can beat wood, but wood will hurn. A distinguished neurolo- gist says that that noises and slight nervous shocks caused by steel cars have become prolific causes of neu- rasthenia and insanity. Still, most of us will chance frayed nerves in preference to burning to death.

Drank Beer for Church.
Philadelphia Public Ledger.

(Ph1ladelphla Pupllc Ledger.)
 Testifying in the Camden police court yesterday in the case of Emma Kane, of 74S Sycamore street, who was charged with violating the excise law in giving away a bottle of lager beer with each sandwich or ten cents worth of pigs feet, Eleanor Williams, 21 years old, of 61o Cherry street, was asked if she had enjoyed the refresh ments, and she replied: Yes, did. I didn't mind drinking the beer, either, when l was told it was for the benefit of the church." After other witnesses testified to being served with beer at what they called a church party given to raise funds to build an annex to the Wesley African Methodist Episcopal church, Recorder Stack house fixed bail at $500, and Mrs. Kane was committed to jail in default
