MAN FROM HERE
 ARRESTED IN PA.
BIoomburg Police Take Suspect
 Wanted by Local Police

Captain Thomas W, Grace of the local police force has received word from the chief of police in Bloom burg, Pa, that Elmer Sabo of Lawlor street, this city, wanted by the police here for support of his wire and two children, has been arrested in that city charged with passing worth less checks, one for Sl,600, another for S49, and a third for s36.
 Captain Grace immediately dis patched the warrant issued here 10 Bloombcre. with instructions to serve it after his case had been disposed of there. He left here about weeks ago in company with a young girl of about IS years of age, and it is thought that the girl who was found with him when he was arrested is the same one that left here with him.
 Captain Grace recommended that the social workers of the Pennsyl- Vania town take her in hand and And out where she belongs and where she comes from, This in the Captains opinion constitutes a violation of the white slave act, a federal charge, and he expects that he will be tried for it. The girl in question is not local girl, and the police have no informa- ton about her other than that she left town with him.
 A number of automobiles with Con necticut registration plates on them, were found with him, but upon in Vestigation it was found that he. at one time, was in the automobile bus mess here, and the cars were his.

TRUCK IS DESTROYED
Fire Also Destroys Two Pieces of
 Antique Furniture

Members of the Canaan Fire Go. were called by silent alarm to the Blackberry River bridge Wednesday morning, to assist in extinguishing a fire in a truck from New Jersey. The fire evidently was caused by the backfre from the engine, after the truck had coasted down Smith Hill.
 The truck was driven by A. Kosh- ansky and I. Veil, and was owned by the Empire Trucking Co.,, of Bayonne, N. J. It contained two pieces of antique furniture, which were being taken from Stockbridge to Jersey City and valued at about $1,000. The total damage to the truck and the furniture will probably total several thousand dollars. It is not known whether the loss was covered by insurance.

FIRE DESTROYS CARS
 AND BRINTON'S GARAGE
Damage of Monday Morning Blaze Estimated at
 $2O,OO0-$25,OOO

One of the worst fires seen in Salisbury in several years took place Monday morning about 10 o'clock in the garage of Roscoe Brinton. How the fire started is not definitely known, for the only thing MT. Erin ton remembers, is stepping out of the office with friend, when an explo- sion, of such severity occurred, that it blew them through the door. Im- mediately afterwards the whole garage was in mass of flames, which did not permit of any of the several cars being removed.
 There were eight cars in the gar age when the blaze started, two Chandlers, a Franklin, Rec, Packard 6-ton truck, a Revere and Rec with a camping body, in which MT. and Mrs. Brinton were planning to make a trip south this winter. The Revere was owned by MT. Scudder, of In- dianapolis, who was visiting MT. Brinton.
 The Lakeville fremen were called to the scene of the blaze and done wondeful work in confning the fire to the garage building. The sheet metal construction was of great benefit in this respect. On the sec ond floor of the building, was te1e- ment occupied by Mrs. Wright and her two sons, who were absent at the time. The contents of the tenement were practically destroyed by fire and water.
 While it is not yet known what the actual damage will amount to, careful estimates place the total at between $2O,OOO and $25,OOO. This is only partially covered by insurance and the loss to MT. Brinton will be great.
 Two theories are held as to the cause of the blaze; one is that the tank in the camping body on the Rec car, which heats the hot water system, exploded. The other is that it being a damp day, with the gar age doors closed, gasoline vapors gathered causing spontaneous com bustion. The real cause, however, will probably never be ascertained.
 Many people throughout this vicin- ity who know MT. Brinton and his business policies, heartily sympathize with him in his loss.
 Whether or not the garage will be rebuilt or what his future plans are, MT. Brinton does not know. He stated that probably the southern trip would be made by rail, but even of this he was still uncertain.
