After a lon& period without a fire alarm, Norwich had two on both for fires in the center of the city which caused considerable excitement and quite a little ‘The first was at 1.15 a. m., in the ure store of Schwartz in Water street, and the second was in the attic of the American house, in Shetucket street, at 440 p. m. The cause is unknown in both cases, the loss in the first amounting to ‘about $2,000 and in the latter to probably $3,000. Schwartz Brothers’ Stor.e A fire discovered in the rear base- ment of the furniture house of Schwartz Brothers at No. 9 to 11 Water street called out the department at 115 oclock on Sunday morning, when an alarm was turned in from box 118 by the watchman at the Dav- enport Firearms company building. After half ar hour of brisk work the “under control” signal was sent in, but the damage to stock will probably be over $2,000. ‘The men from the Central station did a clever bit of work in getting out after the midnight alarm, Chemical No. 1, chief's wagon and the steamer all being under way inside of a minute from the time the alarm struck. In spite of the early hour a good crowd watched “the fire fighters, many of the proprietors of adjoining stores arriving on the scene to keep an eye on their own property, and there was a consid- erable contingent of those who had not vet reached their homes for the night. The fire was burning briskly both inside and outside the building on the side near the rear end, where there is an alleyway that leads down to the waterfront. making it comparatively easy to put a stream of water on which auickly subdued the blaze on the out- side. Inside in the basement it was harder to get at and it burned flercely as it fed on the stock of couches, beds and other furniture packed in around a window at this point. All the fire was confined to this one basement floor, although it burned up through four’ thicknesses of flooring above it, almost under the office on the first floor of the bullding. The entire build- ing was filled with dense smoke, on all three floors above the basement, which were heavily stocked with a line of furniture of all kinds. No water was used above the basement floor, but a number of streams were directed Into that and into the sub-cellar to makc sure all the blaze was out. The cause of the fire is unknown, but in the opinion of Chief Stanton, who directed the department, there are indications that it originated outside of the building. Abner Schwarts, one of the firm, was summoned from his home and opened up the front door, so that the firemen Two Alarms on Sunday with Considerable Damage at ‘Each—Cause is Unknown in Both Instances —_— ‘were able to get in on that floor with- bl el S s The steamer was located on Central whart et & hydrant there and was y to put on a stream, but it was ROt needed. American House. Following telephone calls to the. centraj fire station and police station, an alarm from box 4 at 440 o'clock Sunday afternoon called the depart- ment to the American house, where it was found that the attic was afire and burning fiercely. Residents across the street seen the smoke for some time, but thought it was from the cars. It was also seen from Thames strect, and Frank Tracy telephoned from the McCrum-Howeli plant to the police station that he thought flames were coming through the roof. The department made a quick run, and soon had water on the bullding. As the alarm sounded an attempt Wi made by C. E. Brady to get into the attie, but it was found to be a mass of flames. Inside of a half hour the fire was under control, bu the roof of the main building was gone and will have to be rebuilt. How the fire started is not known, but it was evident that it had been go- ing for some time before it was known, and it had a good draft to speed it along. The hotel is now managed by Farrell & Sanderson, and they know of no way the fire could have started. As the chimney had not been used for over three weeks it did not start from that, and It was not known that an: one ‘had been up into the attic for a month. There was stored there bed- steads end supplies for the hotel, but nothing of a nature which it was though would cause spontaneous com- bustion. Engine No. 1 was stationed on the Steamboat wharf and drafted some water, but it was not required and was withdrawn. Someone without authority telephoned for the Greene- ville steamer, which came as far as Moran’s corner, when it was sent back, as_the recall was being sounded. The water dia considerable damage, as it went down through the floors of the hotel, and it is thought the loss will be $3,000 or more. A new roof will be required, but the first was confined to the attle, and neither of the ells were damaged. A large crowd gather- ed, and Laurel Hill avenue was a pret- ty sight with the hundreds getting the fine view from that point. The hotel had 27 guests, but none wag injured,although some of them had their clothing soaked. McRoberts and Chapdelaine of the Norwich ball team roomed together at the hotel. The clothing of McRoberts was protectetd in & closet, but the clothes of Chapdelaine, being in the room, were thoroughly soaked when he returned. SERIOUS ACCIDENT I AT UNCAS PAPER MILL | Jesse Stevens Gets Bad Scalp Wound and Charles Ichinowsky Has Frac- ture at Base of Skull. There was a serious accident at the Uncas paper mill at an early hour on Sunday morning, when some of the employes were at work on a calender. An iron bar was being used, some be- ing_engaged in pulling and others pushing the bar, it is stated. As the calender moved or the bar slipped Jesse Stevens and Charles Ichinowsky were thrown to the concrete floor. The latter struck in such a manner as to receive a fracture at the base of the skull, while he also suffered from con- cnssion and lacerations. oSon after the accident Dr. Donohue was called to the mill and gave attention to the injured men. Jesse Stevens was struck in the top of the head by the iron bar, laying open his scalp to the skull bone across the top of his head, making a bad and decidedly painful wound. Both men were taken to their homes after the accldent. 1t will be impossible to tell how the injury to Ichinowsky will terminate. It is believed, however, that his con- dition is dangerous, but it will require a few days to determine its full ex- tent. THEATER DEEDS HAVE BEEN TRANSFERRED S. Z. Poli Intends to Do the Best He Can for the Norwich Public—Will Make Theater Attractive. On Saturday. §. Z. Poli, accompanied by his private secretary, L. M. Sagal, and Peter Alonzo of New York, came here and met the officials of the Broad- way theater and received the deeds to the property. Mr. Poli iooked over the newly pur- chased property and stated that he intended to completely renovate and redecorate the interior of the buflding and will instal new seenery, draperies and carpets, all of which he hopes to complete hefore the first of September to be ready for the fall opening. He intends to give Norwich the best to be had in the line of attractions. The unsatisfactory situation which the show business is in because of the three-cornered theatrical combine fight makes show business have a dismal outlook. Just what will be possible or can be given, {s uncertain but he hopes to be able to give Norwich at- tractions which will satisfy. He will send a decorator here soon to look over the building. i MISSIONARY SERVICE Held at First Baptist Church Sunday Evening. At the First Baptist church Sunda; evening the seryice was of a mission- ary character. Mre.

Roath had consented to speak of her trip around the world. The two reports of the conference were full of interest, showing the wide- ness of the missionary work both in our own and other countries. The re- ports were greatly enjoyed. < Mrs. Roath, following the thought of the meeting, spoke on missionary work, saying she took advantage of every op- portunity to visit missionary stations during her trip around the world. Touching upon_the three religions— Mohamadism, Buddhaism and the Bramha religlion—Mrs. Roath told of the several idols that were worshipped by them, as the sacred tooth, the sacred footsteps and others.

Dr. Kaufman at Methodist Church. Trinity Methodist Episcopal At church Sunday morning, Rev. Dr. M. S. Kaufman preached from the text, Matthew 25:34, on The Aged Chris- tian’s Heavenly Inheritance, saying: Among the. most charming words that ever tremble on mortal tongue or thrill in human heart are the words, Mother, Home and Heave: The mention of Mother awakens sweetest memories of innocent childhood. It suggests love,—pure, rich, tender love. It is generally agreed that nothing on earth so fittingly symbelizes divine love as mother-love. Home is_very largely what Mother makes it. When she is taken away the real light of he home seems to have gone out. The shadows come. And yet even a grief-shadowed home is the dearest spot om earth. How hearts would break and grope {n desolate despair were there nath- ng else beyond! Dear as Mother i \s Heaven What a gloomy world thi would be, Wwith its pain and misery, its partings and destitution, were there no Heaven above to let down its joyor veams into the darkness beneath! And 10 pour its rich. sofet music into the harsh sounds which o often vex the earthly ear! Our text presents the bright side of the judgment day, when God's entire attitude toward mankind will be fully vindicated. Then will all the assembled myriads unite in the unquestioned verdict that He doeth ®ll things well. Then will there be perfect satisfaction with His adminis. iration of His moral government—th assurance that God never made a mis. take and never once failed to act un der the promptings of Infinite lovi What blissful ecstasy will then thrill the souls of those who hear the me- ody of His voice when He shall say Come ye blessed of my Father. Come, inherit! Take full possession of your heavenly inheritance. Think what an eternity of meaning In those welghted words: “The kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” ANl who inherit this kingdom will be entitled to its vast accumulations. It is a kingdom of power. Yonder will be granted us power to render any service that may seen desirable. The power of this kingdom will be available to every subject and ease of achievement will be one source of Heaven's bliss. 2. Tt is a kingdom of prosperity, un- deviating, perpetual prosperity. Never will_there be heard the doleful ery of hard times, men out of employment, financial stringency, poverty and want. The precious things so highly prized on carth we may believe are only symbols of richer treasures, unspeakably more valuable than all material wealth. All inspired descriptions of heaven indicate its inexhaustible richness in all that can contribute to fullness of life. 3. It is a kingdom of peace. How weary we become of earthly strife and yet how difficult to avoid it. Appar- ently there seems to be no progress for man here save through strain and stress, storm and battle. But in heav- en all is harmony. “Peace is there that knows no measure.” 4. Tt is a kingdom of permanence. Its possessions and treasures, its peace and joy will abide forever. Here ev- ing in transitory. Death and de- cay are written upon everything our eyes behold. Not so up there. Per- manence ig one of the most pleasing characteristics of that kingdom. But above al, Christ will be there. It is His presence, His loving sway that fills that kingdom with fragrance and beauty and ceaseless harmonies. The aged Christian need fear nothing.

Falls Into_Pool of It and Dies from Torrible Scalding. New York, May 29.—Ernest Straat, 25 years old, of No. 2764 Morris avenu the Bronx, died early yesterday morr ing in St. Gregory's hospital as a re- Uit of mcalds be received when he fell | into @ pool of boiling water at the new municipal bullding excavation in Park Row on Friday night. Straat had just been successful in! getting a job from the superintendent, and started for his home in a happy mood. In leaving the excavation he had to cross an unguarded bridge to the south of Chiambers street and walk- ed off into a cofferdam of scalding w- fer. Those working near by heard the man’s shrieks, and, dropping their tasks, hurried to the dam. When they reached the boiling water they could see no one, but from the sounds they heard judged that some one had fallen from the bridge and was directly un- der the hospital shanty. They ripped the floor up with crowbars and saw Straat floating below with one hand gripping a steam pipe. When he was finally dragged out his flash was burn- ed raw. Stuart Pays Duties of $1,823.60.
