much interested in their work and are to
be congratulated on the success they have
made. The kindergarten branch of the

' BliililEL HIT THE BUTTllll

 

AND THE-MEMBERS OF THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT DID THE BEST.»

The Beginner of the Bridgeport Freight
Discovers I Bless on Wood Street at
Daybreak this Morning, and Bounds Ill
Alarm on his Monmotlvo Whistle.

A succession of short, sharpblaats from
the whistle of a locomotive attached to
the extra Bridgeport freight, in“ charge
of Conductor Robert Boole, gave an
alarm of fire shortly atfer 3 o‘clock this
morning. When the train was just east
of the Springwood bridge, Engineer Fred
Baker discovered smoke and flames curl-
ing upward from the roof of a building
on Wood street. The alarm awakened
Superintendent Bounel, of the South
Nor-walk Electric Works. who lives on
Spring street, almost opposite the point
where the train was. Inching out of a
wrndow he saw the fire, and getting its
location as near as possible he struck
thirteen on the fire bell from a push but-
ton in his room, the box bearing that
numbcigbcing located on Concord street,
op its the school. _ ..

The hose wagon, with Driver Simone
on the box, was on its way to the scene
of the fire with remarkable promptnese,
as was also the other apparatus and
members of the department. The fire
was located in a building owned by
Thomas Goodwin, which be used as a
shoe repairing shop, but which was for-
merly a saloon. The building stood close
to his large house. The flames had
gained good headway when the depart-
ment arrived. and threatened the de-
struction of other property. iood ser-
vice was done by the fireman, however,
and the flames were prevented from
communicating with any other building.

The fire started, it is presumed, on the
south side of the building, near a large
window, where lllr. Goodwin‘s shoemak-
er’s bench stood. It may tuisslbly have
had its origin from the outside, as this
was the only portion of the building. ex-
cept at the top, that bumed through the
siding.

Tire building was about 20.130 lost, one
story and a half in height, was worth
about $400 and was insured with Taylor
& Golden for $300. It contained, besides
a valuable lot of tools belonging to Mr.
Goodwin, three stoves, a bar, and other
articles which had been stored there.
