Swahn's efficient leadership. Again a richly varied programme was given by the musicians, and with excellent effect, for the hundreds that filled every available seating space within hearing distance, while hundreds of others stood up and scores of others occupied the automobiles that stood around, were generous in their ap- plause. According to the plans, at least one more concert will be given in Union square and perhaps more.

The captain acted with equal despatch in communicating with Dr. J. W. Callahan, who fortunately happened to be in his office at the time, and who started in his automo- bile as fast as the law would allow out Bast Main street and over the bridge. Thus it came about that the would-be suicide was being treated in just about five minutes after he had tried to drink his acid, which he had procured at a West Main street drug store, and was kept from eelf destruc- ltion by the combination of circum- stances and the prompt medical atten- tion. Since it is said that the relations between Mr. Ferns and his wife and her family have been striined at times and the former has been in police court on a breach of peace charge, and rela- tions between the two Friday evening Seemed to be _amicable, and Mrs. Ferns was quite overcome after her ! husband had pulled the bottle of acid LIVELY FIRE IN BARN AND HORSE SMOTHERED Department Was Called Out to Rear of 204 West Main Street at 10 O’Clock on Friday Night, Just after 10 o'clock ceased striking from the city hall tower, an alarm of fire was rung in from Box 14 at Thames square, It was for a lively blaze in a barn at the rear of Swartz- burg’s hall -and a bottling works at 204 West Main street that hatl evi- dently been golng some little time before the men from the West Main street station got there, followed by the autochemical, chemical No. 1, truck and_steamer, from the Central station. Charles Neff, who is employ- ed by Joseph D, Pfeiffer, whose shop is next door to the barn which was afire, went down to water his em- ployer’'s horses shortly before 10 o'clock ang he saw flame shooting out of the roof of the barn toward the rear and he gave the alarm. The box was rung in by a young man named Budnick, who had pulled-boxes before and is rapidly becoming an expert. There was a horse in one side of the barn and in the other an automo- bile, owned by Richard Lubin. Atten- tion was concentrated on saving the latter and in the meantime in the in- tense smoke the imprisoned horse smothered to death. It was dead when the fire companies got there. The au- tomobile was gotten out. The fire it- self was confined to the rear of the barn and chiefly to the roof and lthe upper floor, where a large quantity of hay gave it excellent fuel. When the firemen got there there was a roaring) flame coming out, but three streams of water quickly had the blaze under control. The recall was sent in about 10.25, but the firemen stayed on and a large quantity of the ha was pitched out onto the ground in order that they might make sure that there was no chance of another blaze. The truck, the last apparatus back, reached the Central station at 11.20. While the cause of the fire could not be exactly ascertained, it was re- ported to Chief ‘Stanton that a man was seen around the barn about 8 o'clock, and it is surmised that this chap may have dropped a lighted cig- arette, as is only too commonly done. The barn used to bélong to Joseph Swartzburg, but the firemen were un- able to find out who is its present owner. People in the neighborhood said that ¢he building and the herse belonged to a shoemaker named Shenka, and his loss will be several hundred dollars. After giving the alarm Charles Neff tried bravely to rescue the horse that was in the barn, but the flames had gained too much of a start and he was forced to desist after burning both his hands ang also his face. He was attended by Dr. Louis Cassidy. The fire occurred shortly after the end of the band concert and many of the crowd on thelr way home stopped to watch it, making a large congre- gation in that neighborhood. The trolley cars on the West Side line were stopped for a couple of trips by the hose across the tracks at High street. YOUNG MAN AND WOMAN DETAI Police Have Been Suspicious of Their Actions, and Investigation to Be Made. > After they had been watched by the police for several days a young man and a young woman, the firse from Central Falls, R.
