fires in various parts Of the island
yesterday kept the firemen of both
the paid department and those of
the volunteer companies, still in ex-
istence, busy during the day.
The Tottenville companies an

Satterlee avenue near Sea Breeze,
one in the afternoon and one last
night. The volunteers of Huguenot
Park were called to a brush fire on
the property Of DR.. Isaac Feinberg,
at jefferson boulevard, Annadale,

There was no damage at either
place but the fremen had a hard
fight in extinguishing the blaze.
Since the first OF the week many
alarms have been received from Just
such fires that have taken the COM
panies 10 outlying districts. This
leaves residential places without
protection at times while they are
