 barn owned by Mrs. Adela Precinct in ihe Flanders section.
 The elarm for the Precinct fire was turned in about o'clock yesterday
 morning and the chemical squad re- sponded and found a barn in flames. The fire had gained considerable headHsy before the arrival Of the fire department and it was impossible to check the blaze, the building being burned to the ground. over zoo chickens perished in the blaze and It was thought that calf and a COW had also been burned. search of tlIe ruins late yesterday afternoon failed 10 disclose the carcasses of the animals. According 10 the owner, Mrs. Precinct. the COW was tied with 2 chain and for that reason 1t is be- lieved it would have been impossible for the animal 10 have escaped.

The worst rumble in New Brit am was the description given in po- nee court this morning by Patrolman / Anthony Walinszus to the store con- uucted at Ills Orange street by Joseph bapula, who was arraigned before Judge Benjamin W. filling on charges ot violating the liquor laws The po- lice seized nine cases of beer at the store yesterday afternoon, and placed iiabula and eight men charged with frequenting under arrest.
 Babuia, whose eppea rance in court his morning was the third in nine days, was fined s1oo and sentenced to l0 days in jail when found guilty of the charges. He pleaded not guilty He took an appeal from the decision.
 The heaviest penalty imposed on the i trequenters was received by Stanley 1 Olescayitch who had a so days sen tence suspended the last time he ap- peared in court.

He was told by Babula that the price for the beer was 10 cents bot tie so he purchased two bottles. One of them was sent to chemist for analysis and was found 10 contain ".19 per cent alcohol by volume. The arrests and the seizure of the beer followed the receipt of the chemists report on the analysis yesterday aft ernoon.
 When asked hy Judge Alling where he purchased his beer and from whom, Babula proved to be another one Of those unfortunates who pur- chased their beverages from that mysterious stranger who Is dlstribut- ing liquor about the city and causing so many to be maled into court. He did not know the mans name or his place of business. telling the court that the man came around three times q week and delivered four or five eases each time.
 According to the testimony Of the rolice and there were nine Of them in court to testify Rabula has been con- 1ucting very nourishing business, there being anywhere from 10 to 20 men in th" store drinking beer when the police happened around.
