James Lewis FIRE WRECKS GAS The municipal gas and electric plant was threaten=d with destruction ~early Monday evening by a disastrous ' fire which broke out in one of the small brick buildings, on the north end of the pilant, used for storage of supplies, meter re- pair room and as a garage for the de- partment’s auto trucks. It was one of the most dangerows fires the fire depart- ment- have had to face in years, as had the blaze eaten its way fifty feet south of where it was stopped the huge gas meter through whigh the city’s supply of gas passes befcre it is distributed would § have been surrounded by flames and a tremendous explosion would doubtless have resulted with untold damage to property and life. {The firemen stubbornly _fought the blaze and prevented it from reaching the big meter. As it was, the morth end of the meter house caught but the flames were quickly extinguisred. The alarm came in at 7:40 from Box 24, North Main, near Roath street. Dep- uty Chief Henry R. Taft was on his way from the Central station to the fire sta- tion . on North \Main street _at the time, and was within a few feet of the box when it was pulled. He was the first on the scene, Chief H. L. Stanton, the auto pumper, Main street chemical and West Side chemical ar- rived a minute or two later. The interior of the building was a roaring furnace and the flames were shooting out the windows and rapidly eating their way through the roof. A few minutes before Box 24 was pulled in the watchman at the Atlantic Carton company’s plant, adjoining the burning butlding ran to the company box 234, the Brainerd and Armstrong Company's private box, located a few feet from thé burning building,” broke the glass and turned the key. The watchman did not open the box door and pull the hook as he supposed that turning the key was all that Was necessary to Ting in the box. Fight Tire In Dense Smoke In the interval between the attempt to ; i il DO0A pull box 254 and the pull the fire gained considerable headway. A pitch dark alley way from North Main street, through which it was necessary to Iay hose, and difficult access to the biaze hindered the firemen. A line of hose was run from a_ hydrant on “North Main_street down the alley and across were run from a hydrant at Golden street and across the railroad tracks and a fourth line was copuled onto the gas and electric department’s hydrant inside the plant yard. The fifemen fought the blaze in a dense smoke for well over an hour. It was not until 8:35 o'clock that the recall was sounded. ment's auto trucks were in the garage when the fire broke out. One of the three, a Ford service truck was run out in safety, but the other two, a large White truck, which it is said had just been ov- hauled and painted, ‘and a large Reo truck were practically destroyed, togeth- er with the meter testing apparatus and a large quantity of gas supplies. - inside and the roof was practically de< stroyed. C. H. Taggett, superintendent of the gas and electric department, stat- ed after the fire Monday night that it was impossible to state just what the demage is.

Farle C. Sons of Veterans, G. H. Dolan C'm" The building itself was badly gutted He was unable to state what the cause of the fire was. Foreman Smith left the building at 5:30 o'clock and everything was all right then. ~Watchman Sulli- van of the plant was in the, immediate vicinity of the supply house a few min- utes before the fire broke out and saw nothing out of the ordinary. Supt. Tag- gett statel that in his opinion the blaze either started from Spontancous combus- tion or else someone left a vas jet burn- ing in the building. The Greeneville hook and ladder and engine company re- sponded to the box, in addition to the city’s apparatus. —_— v BONFIRE SPARK SETS FIRE “ TO LOAD OF COTTON WASTE A three and one-half ton Federal truck owned by the Max Gordon corporation and carrying 45 bags of cotton waste caught. fire on the Jewett City road at a point known as the Shetucket siding and was totally destroyed shortly after 2 o'clock on Monday afternoon. The driver of the machine, Andrew Brodusky, and a helper, Joseph Verneshe- skie, had been to Moosup, where they had loaded on to the,truck the 45 hags of waste, securing it Wwith chains and ropes. They started home with the load and when near Round Hill had passed a bon- fire beside the road. About @ quarter of a mile beyond the fire the driver sud- denly turned and saw his load was ablaze. He immediaetly turned his truck fnto the bank beside tne road and with #; heiper tried to cut loose the load. They suc- ceeded in catting the ropes that held the load but were unable to get off the chain as the cotton was blazing so fiercely they could not get near tha truck. They tried to put out the fire with sand but were unable to make any. headway and it was only a short time before the truck was a total wreck. The local fire department was summoned but the dis- tance being so great it was not thought advisable to'send the apparatus away from the city. The blazing truck and cotton blocked the highway for some time, traffic being unable to get past owing to the intense heat. The heat was so great that the chassis of the truck was redhot and twist- ed out of shape. The gasoline tank of the machine exploded during the, fire and shot a blaze for several feet, Nothing remaips of the truck but the motor -and two: front wheels, the rest be- ing demaged beyond-repair. The truck ‘was partially covered by insurance. Mr. Brodusky stated that in all probability a spark from the bor which he passed started the blaze on' his truck.

A and_Associated Socleties Sedgwick Post No, 1. G, A. R. in Automobiles The Invitation committee stated Mon day evening that over 50 invitations have been mailed out to various\organizatiors in Norwich and vicinity. The commit- tee has made every effort to cover ail or- I ganizations. If any organization has not recelved an iuvitation to parade, they may consider themselves invited. said the committee chairman. We would like to see every organization in.Nor- wich in line Thutsday afternoon, he continued. Any organization that desires T Take part in the parade should assemble at 2:15 o'clock Thursday afternoon and mo- tify the marshal or one of his aides who will_see that they are assigned a place in the line. The parade formation listed above is subject to change and thg re- vised formation will be published Thurs- day mornibg. School WHI Close The public and parochial schools of the town will close Thursday afternoon so that the children may take part in the parade. It is desired that each school | parade as a unit and the children may carry suitable banners and flags. The general committee in charge of the celsbration will hold their final meet- ing this (Tuesday) evening at the Apnerican Leston rooms on Shetuckd | seet at which time aides to the mashai will be appointed and important de- tails connected with the day's programme will be settled. REGISTRARS OF VOTERS NOT .SATISFIED WITH PAY A raise of 33 1-3 per cent. all around in the compensation of the registrars and assistant registrars of voters of the town, which has been granted by the selectmen, is not meeting the approval of the two registrars, Tyler D. Guy and Cornelius J. Downes. At the last town meeting the appro- priation for election expenses was raised to $7,000, as it was recognized more money would be needed for printing and other expenses in connection with the election where the women's vote Would so much increase the electorate. The regis- trars expected they would have an in- crease in their pay, because they would have so much more work to do in pre- paring the lists of voters, but when they found last week that they were to re- ceive only the same percentage of in- crease as thé assistant registrars they considered they were being unfairly treated. ce July, they say, they have done practically nothing but work on the registration lists and have handled 4,000 new names in getting the lists together. The brunt of this work has all fallen on Registrars Guy and Downes, while the assistant registrars have ~had scareely anything to do with it. The work of the assistants is practically all done on elec- tion day, and the difference in the de- mands that is made on the time of the two sets of men ought to entitle the rez trars to a greater increase than the sistants. According to the way Registrars Guy and Downes understand it, the board of selectmen has not been unanimous in de- ciding what the increase should be, as Selectmen Casper K. Bailey and Charles P. Bushrell favored making the advance at the same rate for registrars and as- sistants, while Selectman P. T. Connell wa sin favor of giving the registrars more than the assistants. *. W.
