FIRE IN THEATER BUILDING CAUSED MUCH EXCITEMENT. Audience Left Quietly as Performance Was Going On—Blaze in Rubbish in Cellar Under Second Story Entrance. Soon after the performance at Poli's opened on Monday evening smoke be- gan to filll the house, and it was evi- dent that theer was a fire ing. William Perrv hastened to the central fire stati»)n and Engine Co. No. 1 quickly responded, and it was some minutes before the location of the fire could be determined. Fearing that the blaze might burst out suddenly, Chief Stanton requested Manager Saunders to dismiss the au- dience, whic hhe did, explaining to them that there was a slight fire, but there need be no haste in leaving, as there was no immediate danger. The | audience left the bullding quietly and without any confusion, while the or- chestra played and Fay Baker started her dance, which was later a part ot the play. After being outside a few minutes, the fire being located and quenched, Manager Saunders opened the doors and the audfence returned and saw the completion of the show. The fire was found in a cellar at the northwest corner of the building, un- der the hallway at the entrance to the Norwich Commercial schoool, which is on the second floor of the theater building. The blaze was amongst a quantity of papers in the cellar and, being beyond the capacity of a tank of chemical, the big tank in the wagon was brought into use, and a line of hose was stretched. The fifire was soon out, but the pa- pers were thoroughly gverhauled, it being necessary to take up much of the flooring, ae it was imoossible to get into the cellar from the hallway, exzept through a scuttle without lad- der or staids. This scuttle was locat- ed in a small room intended for a box office for the upper hall, and through which it is supposed the papers wer thrown, as there was a quantity of them in the office. The damage was slight. \ How the fire\started is not known, but it was in a bad location had it gained much more headway. No alarm was sounded, but there were several hundred who gathered in the street, attracted by the response of Engine Co. No. 1. It was an exciting opening for “Trilby,” and gave rather a smoky flavor to the remainder of the per- formance. MAKING REPAIRS ON LAUREL HILL BRIDGE. Employes of Berlin Bridge Company Here—Not Known How Extensive They Be. First Selectman A. W. Lillibridge has had Enginecr Hanna of the Berlin Eridge company here looking over the several iron bridges of th- ivwn for the purpose of determining if any re- pairs were needed. It was found that all were in good condition except the Laurel Hill bridge, and there employes are engaged in making repairs, the ex- tent of which is not yet known.

En- gineer Hanra will come here again for the purpose of giving the bridge a more thorough inspection. He was un- able to go underneath it at this time and until he does it will not be known how many repairs will have to be made. A few years ago the large columns at the Sketucket street end were cut down and new sections set in, but those are all right, and it is not ex- pected that any of that kind of work will have to'be done now. It will not be known until after g thorough test- ing what the full extent and cost of the rapairs will be. NORWICH MEN NAMED ON THE COMMITTEE. Will Make Repairs to War Office at Lebanon Under S. A.
