only because of the strong north wind that whipped them along. but because ef the dry condition of everything, other houses in the vicinity were placed in a dangerous position. \ large quantity of railroad ties, owned by A J. Lathrop of Danielson, large tracts of timber, including one of pine that Mir.

Wiberg
 Webster Bremen Help
 During the fire. Webster and the Grosvenordgle Company sent fremen and apparatus to fight the flames and the New Haven road sent a special train to the scene with large crew of men, who did good work in checking the progress of the fire and finally putting it out.
 Late in the afternoon yesterday, an other fire started about mile and a half north of Sunset Hill on the edge of the WilsonvilIe district and burned south with great speed. the north wind flaming the flames into furnace like blanket of fire. The fire travelled southerly to near Davis Crossing, burning over between $50 and 400 acres of land.
 As the fire sped on it's way the pro perty of Calvin spinney was threaten cd and was only saved by a tremend- ous effort by the 200 volunteer fire fighters who were early on the scene. 1t was feared for a time that nothing could save the places of Lowell Davis. A. Nj. Covell. Frank Knight and the beautiful Gladding estate. The fire had such headway and was burning so fercely that it was despaired of for a time, but the men kept hard at work and finally succeeded in not only saw ing all the houses endangered, but in checking the fire entirely.
 There is conflicting opinion as ts the reason for the starting of this lat ter fire. Some think a spark from the fire adjacent to the Corttis place may have been the cause, but others think 1t was started from some other esuse, a match, cigarette, or the like,

Anneke Jans, who in i63s married at New Amsterdam. now New York City, Rev Dominic Everadus Bogardus. Right here in Putnam there is one who can trace his ancestry to Anneke Jans, this individual being King J. Bogafd- us. maehinist instructor at the Putnam Trade school. In the United States there are large number of people who claim Go be descendants of An neke Jans. and who have for years en- deavored, in and out of court, to prove their rightful share of the vast estate left by the prince.
 Information concerning this estate and the fact that the heirs are being sought. came to this country in news dispatch from England. Not few people there are seeking to establish their claim to the estate.
