The report spread rapidly that Hope Chapel was on fire. and men and boys by the score has tened to the truck house and grot out the old chemical machine. It was dragged' a. few -rods opposite the resi dence of Attorney CUtus King-, and then the question was bow to get it up Osborne hill and into the Hope Chapel district. To think of pulling it that distance by hand was futile. It 3o happened that Mr. Locfcwood, chauffeur for O. O. Jennings, had Just returned from New York city with one of Mr. Jennings automobiles. He goes to . the metropolis twice a week to take down to the Jennings resi dence in ' the city cut flowers, vege tables, chickens, eggs and other thing. and returns with a load " of empty boxes. Recollecting the fire . which consumed the Jennings stables and bams a year ago, he volunteered to hitch his auto to the fire truck and haul it to the scene of the conflagra tion. He was at the Boyle pharmacy, refreshing himself, but he backed down to the truck, and very soon was speeding up Elliott street at a furi ous rate. The mon and boys piled themselves in . heaps upon the auto and the "truck, and off they went in a cloud of dust. - When the vehicles ar rived at Edward B. Morehouse's cor nea- the truck broke down, and hall to be left m the road. Fortunately the discovery was made that the Chapel wa not on fire, but that a grass fire was raging, and the people In the viMnltv were araid It would get beyond' control. The men with their chemicals assisted in quenching the flames, and a young man was dis patched to 'Wallace M. Bulkleys sta bles to get a team to bring the truck back to tfie fire house. It is hoped the auto-chemical wiH eoon be in com mission. Ten minutes was lost from the sounding of the alarm before the truck could be started for the fire. - Worthy Grand Lecturer John E. Boyle has prepared an elaborate pro gram for the next meeting of the Grange, which will be on Tuesday ev ening. May 2.

SPRINfi WAIX PAPER Fires of one kind and another are so frequent, nobody will feel entire ly safe until Chief Judson has that dandy auto-chemical in the house of the Hook & ladder Co., ready to rush out as soon as alarm is turned in. Five fires in four days is really too' much,- and keeps George Lines' and George Porters' autos in commis sion all the time to haul the chemicals about town. , It is beginning to be felt that Stratford is too large, geographi cally speaking. The run from Lord ship to Putney Is .too much, and if the town should be divided and two townships created where now but one exists it would be a good .thing for all concerned. The story which W, C. Lewis is tell ing around, as an inducement for peo ple to give him money, lacks verifica tion. He claimed in Fairfield ,on Monday, that his wife is in a Bridge-! port hospital. This is not so. She lives in town, and is trying to support her family of children, which have been deserted by their father. Last Sunday she was present at Christ church in good health. Lewis has been arrested for non-support of his wife and children. He is a vegetable gardner by occupation, and could earn an honest living if he , so minded.' These facts are published for the pro tection of the public. The rummage sale on Thursday will open at 9 o'clock in the forenoon at the chapel of the Congregational church. It is for the benefit of the Women's Aid society. . There will be a business meeting of the Neighborhood church this evening and some plan 'will be devised for pre serving the lawn in front of the build ing. On tlie 4th of May there is to be a banquet at . the Hotel Astor. in New York, of all the men and women who have been giving lectures In that city before the schools at the request of the Board of Education.

It appears that the manner of tlheir being taken prisoners in Mexico, is explained by Arthur Child and his partner, Arthur Maynar. by the fact that while they were taking an auto mobile , ride to Juarez, they suddenly found . themselves between the . two contending armies, and v wild bullets, were flying in all directions kicking up little clouds of dust. They . at tempted to escape, but the Federal soldiers took them for spies, and held Ahem prisoners, until they could prove to the contrary, . when they were es corted across the llme into the United States. As is well known Mr. Child Is a native of this town, and a son of Rev. Dr. Child: .
