Railroad, five miles from Wilmington, at 3,45 o'clock this morning, destroyed the home of the late Thomas Pilling, who was the treasurer and head of the I Klamensi Woolen Company, entailing || a loss estimated at about $6,000. The I structure was frame and two and one- i| half stories high. It had not been!) ocupled since the death of Mr. Pll- {I ling, four or live years ago. While the origin of the blaze is not ' definitely known, it is thought that sparks from a passing B. & O. loco motive caused the fire. ] Wilmington was appealed to for assistance and Fire Chief Moran dis- | patched the Reliance and Union com- j panies to the scene, the "Green | Streak" making the run in remarka-| hie fast time.

The destroyed | dwelling was located about 60 feet i from the Klamensi Woolen Mills and near a village of from 15 to 20 houses, in which employes of the mill live, i There also is a heavy wail of trees between the site of the destroyed building and the woolen mills and It , was Impossible for the flames to gel through this barrier under the condi tions that prevailed. Town People Fight Fire. The firemen were not handicaped by the lack of water as Is usually the case upon going to places outside the city to fight fires, as the Red Clay creek flows by the woolen mills. When the firemen arrived, however, the Pill ing residence was practically de- | stroyed and the men turned their at tention to preventing the bames reach ing adjoining property. The fire was discovered by the crew of a passing freight train and the Bleeping inhabitants of the village were aroused by sharp blasts of the locomotive whistle. In a short time all the people In Karaensl were awake and most of the men had left their homes to fight the fire In the mean time, Wilmington was appealed to for assistance and the two fire companies dispatched to the scene of the blaze, were soon on their way. Since the death of his father, Rich ard T. Pilling has been operating the woolen mills at Klasraenst and his home Is immediately across the road from where his father had lived, but it escaped damage While the woolen mills proper are about 300 feet away from the site which was occupied by the destroyed building, there is a frame building connecting with the mills which was only about 50 feet from the burned building. Fortunately the wind was blowing awav from tnis structure and th » wall of trees which stood between It and the burning building also acted as a protection. WOULDN'T FINE R. R.
