STAFFORD SPRINGS Fourth Mill Fire in Four Years—Gar- land Mill Destroyed, witih Every Evidence of Incendiarism—Loss $70,000 Coversd by Insurance—Sev- enty-five Thrown Out of Work. Fire has again visited the town of Stafford and cast a gloom over the village of Staffordville by snatching away her principal industry, the Gar- land Woolen mill. This is the fourth woolen mill in Stafford in less than four years destroyed by fire, the = others being the Forest mills of T. F. Mullen & Co., which were burned Oct. 14, 1910, the Fabyan mills Oct. 15 1910, the mill of Fred- erick Faulkner Sept. 1, 1913. The loss of the Garland mill with what the town has already suffered from mill The Garland fire was discovered about 2 o'clock Wednesday morning by the watchman in the Amidon Ma- chine shop, which also belongs to the Garland company. The _company brought a man here from New York several days ago to watch the mill and the former watchman was' transferred to the Amidon Machine shop. When the fire was seen it was breaking out in all parts of the mill and the ugly flames were licking the sides of the four story wooden structure with a vengeance. The water system, which connects with the sprinklers had been shut off and it is sald that the bell rope hag been tied up so that no.alarm could be given by the mill. The church bells were rung, but it was too late to do anything to save the plant. The village people stood around with tears in their eyes. Many of them had nothing in the world ex- cepting their day’s work which assured Shoulder: 20| 3 i LR Tega o A4 20} _Chops, 35 Western Veal— 20| Legs, 30 ngues g‘n;op o fi oulder: Dried Beer, 5] — Corned Beez, 10-20| Cutfeter 33 Porterhouse’ Steax, | Legs, 35 46| Chops, 35 Sirloin, 33| Shoulders, 18 Roast, 30|sausage, 23 Veal Roast, 25| Nat.

Indications 'point strongly to the theory that the fire was of incendiary origin. This was the third fire in the The first was on July 8th and the second Aug. 8th. The August fire showed a well planned attempt to burn, Ropes saturated with kerosene oil had been strung from room to room and several pleces of goods had been saturated with oil. The watchman has been missing since the fire. It was at first thought that he might have lost his life in the fire, but investigation leads to the belief that he has left town.

Thursday when the case of Beau- chemin came to trial, Attorney P. J. Danahey of Willimantic representing the accused, it soon became clear that Beauchemin's defence was to be his claim that he was not a party to the thieving at the Dixon place with in- tent; that he had been engaged to furnish his team to transport some household goods and that, as far as he knew, the mission was a perfectly le- gitimate one, as represented to him by Lapointe. The defendant was on the witness stand for a long time during the afternoon and was given a search- ing examination by State Attorney Searls, who went into many details of the transaction of getting the goods from Sterling to Beauchemin's place at ‘Wauregan and happenings subsequent to that time. The use of an interprter was necessary in the taking of Beau- chemin’s testimony. The case was be- ing heard before a jury. FIVE WOMEN REGISTER. May Try to Get Weman Elected on School Board.
