FIRE SALES EXTRAORDINARY. Saturday and Monday Saw a Record Rush at Main Street Stores. Such sales as were conducted on Saturday and Monday at the F, Wells company, George W. Kies Co. and Lahn Furniture company in con sequence of the recent fire in the Aus- tin building made records for Norwich in this line. Saturday morning long before the opening hours for the sales the sidewalk and street were blocked with the crowd eager to get in when the door was first opened. The Kies company and the Wells company had their sales forces augmented for both days by experts from out of town, and thousands of people were in the stores. The only way they could be handled was in relays, letting the storeful in at one time and then closing the doors with policemen on guard, Special exits by a rear way were arranged to keep the crowds from colliding and the windows at the front entrance were proteeted from being crushed in by heavy timbers piaced across,them, One satisfaetory point for all con- cerned was that the customers who made purchases were a satisfied let and gave the merchants interested credit for conducting fire sales in the best possible manner, BREED THEATER, Harem Captives, Sensational Two- Reel Feature Made in Algeria.
