From Saturday afternoon at $.30 oclock to Sunday morning at 8.5 o'clock the Norwich fire department put in about the busiest 12 hours of Iix istory for a long time. They 'were kept on the jump answering four calls, two at No. 32 High street and two at the city stone crushef at Roath streef. About, 3.30 Saturday afternoon a call fo No. 32 High street for a chimney fire led off in the programme of activity that was to follow. At five minutes past midnight there was an encore to the same house for 4 fire more serlous than the first. After getting control of this, the companies had hardly got back to the stations and had time t do a little necessary cleaning up when at five minutes past 1 they were called to the city’'s stone crusher plant oif Roath street. This was put out,anl the companies returned to their houses but at 3.55 there was an encore to ro- peat their performance at the ston: crusher. ~A tank of chemical was all that was needed this time to put out the blaze in some shingles on the ro: over the bins. Sunday the firemen at the Maia street and the Central stations speat most of the day making up for lost sleep. All of the Sunday morning calls were bell alarms. Bad Chimney Fire. For the first call at 3.30 Saturday afternoon, which was a still alarm for a chimney fire at No. 32 High street, which is a‘two and a half story and Dbasement frame house owned by Max Sternlieb.

At about midnight fire broke ofit again along the chimney and blazel up brightly, bfedking out through the roof. It is said the Ruchik family lighted a fire in their stove and cooked supper, and it is probable that sparks were communicated to the woodworl through apertures in the ~ chimney, which was found in very bad shape ny ‘Chief Stanton. Handleman Woke Up Firemen. B. Budnick, who was standing in front of a house farther down _the street, listening to the music of a wed- ding party that was celebrating, saw the<blaze of the fire and running to the house got out ome of the people there. D. J. Handleman ran to th- West Side fire station and woke up the men of Chemical No. 2, who quick Iy had a stream of water on the fire. Policeman Rang Alarm. Policeman Foger Ccwles rang in the alarm from box 14 at the corner of West Main and Thames streets when someone told him of the fire. The autochemical from the Centr: station and Chemical No. 1 from Ma street responded, as well as the aerial ladder truck and the steamer, but Shop and Engine Room There ——— | these were not needed. The firemen arrived in time to find some of (ns members of the Ruchik household in bed and p one man from jumping off the back porch into the yard 16 feet below. False Alarm About Children. Three streams of water were usai ‘with good effect on the right spots. Dbig crowd collected and had its sympa thies stirred when report was circulat - ed that there were two children asle=)> in the smoke up in the attic. A ladder was rin_up and Chiet Stanton and a fireman made a search of the attic without finding anycme. The smoke was so thick as nearly to overpower ther. ¢ The Ruchijc family got out a few ar- ticles of furniture.” The house was pretty thoroughly wet down and there ter. Tt was insured for $2,000. The Ruchik family had insurance on furni- ture. ; After about 30 minutes’ work the companies were able to return to thir houses, having done good work. Fire at Stone Crusher. At 1.05 box 24 at the corner of Norti: Main and Roath streets rang in for the first fire at the stone crusher. It blazed up brightly and could be seen about the city. The blaze was seen by ths Burke family,who live on Roath street, across the way from the crusher plant, Out of Bed to Ring Alarm. Young Joseph Burke was roused out of bed by his mother and after jumr.- ing .into a few clothes he dashed to the box and rung in the alarm. The bigze had also attracted others in the neighborhood and John Quinn was on his way to pull the box also. In the run for the fire Chemical No. 1 beat the auto chemical to Franklin square corner, but the auto shot past the galloping horses by the time they had reached the postoffice. Chief Stan- ton was at his home taking a bath when the call from box 24 came in. He jumped into some clothes and was on the way walking when picked up by Claude V. Pendleton in an automobile They made speed records to Roath street. The fire at the crusher had started in the frame blacksmith shop, probably from a spark That got into the floor- ing, Chief Stanton thinks. There was talk Sunday that it might have been incendiary, but Chief Stanton said he could see no reason for thinking so. Tkree lines of hose were run in from hydrants in Roath street. The fire burned the blacksmith shop to the ground and did considerable damage in the engine and boiler room adjoining. A big crowd wktched the blaze, which quickly died down as soon as the wa- ter was turned on. At 3.55 another alarm was rung in from box 24. This time the shingle roof over the bins had blazed up where a spark had loged. Only chemical was used to put this out. The damage to the plant will proba- bly be several hundred dollars.
