Nathaniel w. Blanchard residence on
South street. Yarmouth, also COM
pletely destroying the new automo-
bile which Mr.. Blanchard purchased
but month ago. The cause of the
blaze is not known, Tut is thought
to have occurred from defective wiz

smoke. thought that it came from
the chimney of neighbours house.
She did not arise. Awakening at 2
O'Clock, the odOr of smoke was much

ring in the fire alarm box at thu foot

tor succeeded in an alarm being rung
in from another box near by, but as
two other people had seen the flames
and We're trying to ring in the alarms
from various boxes at the same time.
no special signal was rung. causing
considerable confusion and great
loss of time.
The fire department was again
handicapped when the hydrant near
the Blanchard house was found to be
without adequate water pressure and
had to lie abandoned for other ny
drants on other streets. Although at
least an hours time wa slost from
the time Mrs. Blanchard discovered
the flames until the firemen could
really put up fight against the
blaze, they did excellent work saw
ing the house from destruction, as it
was connected by a shed with the
barn.
The shed was destroyed and the ell
of the house containing the kitchen
was damaged by the blaze, while the
interior of the house itself and fur
nishings were heavily damaged by
smoke.

age could not be made this morning

ON SAME STATUS

pectation that the long strike in the

would be declared over today. did
not materialize because operatives in
the Arctic, Centreville, Royal, Valley

return to work declared discrimin-
alton was shown. The mills had
restored the wage cuts of 20 per cent
declared several months ago and the
strikers were going back, although
their demands for a forty eight week
were not granted.
When they reached the mills, they
declared, they found the gates locked
and soldiers on duty who required
them to enter the plants one at q
time. They regarded this as indi-
eating a spirit of distrust on the part
of the manufacturers and as breach
Of their understanding that there
would be no discrimination.
Dissatisfaction was also expressed
by strikers as to conditions at the
Sope mill of the Hope Company.
Statements issued by strike lead
ers asserted that the walkout of en-
ployes would be continued The
