The fire that destroyed the large barn belonging to E. N. Stark Sunday night was the worst that the local hose company had to fight since it's organization and the members have received the highest praise from Mir Stark for the manner in which they worked and for their success in keep ing the fire confined to the barn and shed as the house was less than fifty About ten minutes before the fire broke out several persons passed along the road and no one saw any signs of a fire until the sudden blaze illumined the sky, enveloping the barn in a mass of flames. An alarm was blown from the fire whistle on the Palmer Bros. mill and in a very few minutes the local hose company was at the fire. Owing to the distance from the nearest hydrant over thir- teen hundred feet of hose was laid. A call was sent to the Yantic Fire Go. and also help was asked from the Norwich fire department. Although Chief Stanton of the Norwich depart ment had to get permission from the fire commissioners of Norwich to take the apparatus out of town it seemed but few minutes from the time that the call was sent that the chief and
 his firefighters were here and at work
 The chief seeing how the local mer were handicapped for pressure con- nected the bumper to the hydrani near the store and greatly increased | the force. It was not until the chic. was sure that there was no more danger from sparks that he ordered his men back to Norwich. The towns people were very grateful to tht l chief and his fremen for their quicl
 response and assistance. Not tht
 slightest cause can be discovered fol
 the blaze.

the ultimate triumph of the bureau
despite the misgivings with which it

Director Malone said that the grea
