and the difficulty the f1remen had ia
 lifting her through the window and
 onto the ladder, the feat was one Of
 the most thrilling in the annals of
 fire fighting in New Britain. She was scantily clad and although slightly affected by the smoke, she appeared to be thinking of the safety of her rescuers rather than that of herself. She could not be taken out by way of the stairs because they were a roaring mass of flames and 50 rapid ly was the smoke pouring into her room that there was no time to be lost. The ladder was raised with a minimum of delay and the rescue was effected in manner that elicit ed praise for the firemen from all who witnessed 1t
 The fire occurred,a a week after the 18th anniversary of the destruction of St. Mary's church.
 Rev. Matthew J. Traynor. pastor of St. Mary's church, Is out of the city and Rev. Father McCrann is in charge. Plans for repairing the building are being held in abeyance until the pastors return. The con- vent building was erected under direction of the late Rev. John T. Winters, who was pastor prior to the coming of Father Traynor.
 Chief W. J. Noble reported this afternoon that Fireman William Coffey. of Co. No. 3. who suffered a cut on the hand while working at the fire, is on duty, but Fireman George Scheyd of Co. No. 1 will be off duty a few days at least be- cause of a similar injury.
 The chief regretted the delay in sending in the alarm. Had box been rung at once. several minutes of valuable time would have been saved. he pointed out. There is private box at the parish rectory. Electrical Superintendent George Cooley said an effort had been made to ring this box but 1t did not reg ster because Box 43 was sounding and the box at the rectory is of Lhe Interfering type and will l not register if rung while another | alarm Is being sent in.

$30,0Q0 FIRE AT
 ST. MARY'S CONVENT

tontinued From First Fagt) in the open. Rev Thomas J. Lawlor also braved the fire and smoke un- til one of the firemen advised him to leave, as there was nothing he could do.
 Two Alarms Sounded
 Small boys who ran 10 No fire station a few hundred feet north of the convent and told of the fire, gave the first alarm, at $40 o'clock. Box 42 at Main and East Main was rung at 10:42 and three minutes later the second alarm came in from the same box, orders to ring it being given when the seriousness of the blaze was noted. Chief w. J. Noble was at the new fire station on Stanley street when the alarm sounded.
 A glance at the building when the firemen arrived gave the impression that nothing could save it from destruction. Great clouds of thick. black smoke rolled out of the win dows on the second and third floors and the cracking of the woodwork could be heard out on the street. The flames seemed to be mounting by suction, their great tongues standing up straight as though a powerful magnet was drawing them. As they increased in intensity, they dashed out on all sides and found food in the wooden walls.
 Strenuous 15 Minutes
 Chief Noble, from point of vantage m the third floor, directed the fight. Tons of water were poured into the blazing rooms, but the fire did not abate, and the smoke in creased as tho firemen fought desperately to overcome the handi- cap of the start obtained while it was locked inside the closet. At this time Chief Noble had no knowl- edge of where or how the fire start ed His chief concern was to choke it off on the third floor but for about 45 minutes it seemed as though the fight was losing one, the dry wood work with it's high polish proving ready fuel. About Il o'clock, how ever every Semblance of fire was gone. The rooms about the front

 Worship in East End.

Thomas J. Laden, pas tor, read his annual report.
 The report was the 10th annual report rendered by the pastors of the church since it's erection and was by far the best. In the financial report, a decided increase was noted in the receipts. This enabled the payment of an outstanding debt of $5,000 and the balance of S3,000 which will be used for a new church when the time is deemed propitious to start the movement.
 At the present time, the parish property consists of a church and rectory situated at the corner of East street and Newington avenue. The church includes a parish hall in the basement with the church prop CT in the upper story. The building faces on Newington avenue. The rectory is a beautiful residential structure facing on East street. It is commodious home, is nicely 3D. portioned and lends a pleasing ap- perance to the eye. It is set far back from the street with an archi- tectural design that will harmonizc with the new church which is tenta- lively planned.
 Father Laden's spiritual report showed e baptisms during the past year, II marriages, and IT deaths. The sacrament of Confirmation was conferred on 179 children and 1O5 received their first Holy Con- munion. There were 10000 com municants during the year.
