Fire losses in the section of the
county of which he had charge
we're about 1000 acres this year
he stated today. This is slightly
more than last year. The average
for the county. he believes, is about
the same.
A large fire in the vicinity Of
Reega, which, at one time seemed
sure of destroying all houses in
that community, was responsible
for his large loss, he states. That
blaze was the worst that he had
ever fought.
Warden Joseph Brown. who

also had more loss than last year.

States

Detectives from the Prosecutors
office, with State and Township
police, after working all day yester-
day and all night investigating the
mysterious burning of the Miraglia
homestead, at Cardiff, early yester-
day morning, could make no report
of success in anyway this morn
ing.
The building, located near the

farmer and real estate developer,
was slain by persons unknown
after he had parked his machine
in the garage and started for his
house. A chicken coop and garage
were also destroyed.
Authorities investigate.
Authorities are investigating
evidence which seems to point to-
wards the three buildings being
fired by causes believed to be of
an incendiary with malice against
the Miraglia family. They also
have hopes of tracing clues which
will bring culprits, If any. to light,
and help solve murder which has
gone down in the records of Allan
tic County as another unsolved
mystery.
Local firemen report that there
were apparently three fires at the
homestead, all starting at the same
time. DR.. w. ]. Hudson, chief of
the local firemen, who was an
early arrival at the scene Of the
blaze, declares that there was
something very queer about the
fire.
Mrs. Miragia Occupant.
Mrs. Jennie Miraglia and her
two sons, Theodore, II years old,
and Martin, IL years of age, were
the only occupants of the building,
Mrs. Frances Miraglia, the widow
of the slain man, having moved
