 Starts New Year Right.
 The Terryville fire department al- SO started the new year right by an swering a general alarm at 1:15 O. clock. Thursday afternoon which called the three companies to a blazing building owned by A. Aus wald on North street, Terryville. The building which was used as a chicken coop and rabbit house was a mass of flames when the firemcn arrived on the scene. The building was located q considerable distance from the nearest house. Fire Chief Cornelius Carrigan ordered one line of hose laid from the nearest hy- drant about five hundred feet away and directed q stream of water on the blaze. The building however, was totally destroyed along with nine chickens and five rabbits, which were in it. The trucks were ordered to return to fire headquar- terS one hour after the alarm was sounded. This fire marked the first fire to be held in over year in which the department laid d hose to d hydrant. The company has how ever answered alarms to outlying districts where the hose was laid from pond or stream, during the past year.
 To end the old year, the company answered two alarms on the last day of the year, the first to q chimney fire at the home of Andrew Rom on the Cemetery road where they fought d stubborn blaze but which was extinguished without any dam age resulting.
 The last call of the old year was to the town farm in North Ply mouth where q stubborn blaze was fought in the kitchen of the house which is thought to have started from an overheated stove. The fire men were obliged to cut hole thrugoh the kitchen floor to get at the blaze which had eaten it's way into the partition. The resulting damage was small.
 Store Is Robbed.
 The fruit and candy store con- ducted by A. Ganen at 1 East Main street, Terryville, was broken into early yesterday morning between the hours of 1 and o'clock and about $50 worth of merchandise was taken.
