totally destroyed. at midnight, the large
broom factory of Howard Marvin, ut
Wyoming entailing "a loss to machinery,
equipment and building of nearly $4,000,
on which there was but $3.50 insurance on
the building and about $1,000 on the
machinery and equipment.
barn, few feet from the broom fac
tory, belonging to A. Downham, WAS also
destroyed Sparks from the burning build
ing spread to different parts OF the town,
which caused much alarm, and in view OF
this fact. general alarm WAS sent TO the
fire companies of Dover, Milford and
Smyrna.
The Dover truck responded within
half an hour after the alarm was sent here
and with the water service at Wyoming
did much to save the adjoining buildings.
The belief is that had the wind been west,
practically half of the town would have
been destroyed because of the Roadway of
the fire in the broom factory, which WAS
well laden with broom corn and the
finished product.

Why Berlin Barred Long Hat Pins.

No hat pins figured as weapons in
the latest disturbances in Berlin If
an order issued by the chief Of police
a few days before the reactionary
coup Of March y was needed by the
wearers Of feminine headgear. II APP
pears, according 10 an account In the
Berliner Tageblatt, that an old police
order dating 10 pre-war days was re-
yived, in view of the danger TO limo
cent bystanders engendered by the
wearing of enormous hat pins in sub
way aud street car crowds, and the
Berlin women were warned that each
such 0ffense would cost fine of %
marks and the proper" term OF i'm
prisonment. Furthermore. the order
pointed out that any person injured
by one Of these pins could recover
damages up to COCO marks. and the
culprit might also be sent to Jail for
two years aud fined 800 marks.
