"FIRE DAMAGES VILLAN0VA

Heavy Loss Caused by Flames Which
Sweep House
Damages amounting o mans thou
sands of dollars was caused by a fire
today nt N'orthulck tho larg" rounti)
home of T. Wlstar Hrown nt Villnnova.
Volunteer flicmen fought the blaze us
best they lould, but they had not chetked
the flames before they had gutted the
second and third floors nnd caused con
siderable loss on tho first.
Women of social prominence aided the
men in their efforts, who were seriously
handicapped by an Insufficient water sup
ply. The owner of the house, who is
about 90 years old, refused to leave the
structure before hla library collection,
one of theHnost valuable in Philadelphia
ina its vicinity, had been safely removed.
The Women of the neighborhood carried
from the second floor many valuable
pointings belonging to Mrs. Brown.
The flames ' spread with startling
rapidity. The house is situated on the
crest of n hill, and the Mrc could be seen
for several miles around,
The blaze was discovered by Edward
Magulre, an emplojo of the Brown fnm
lly. He ran for a half mile to the home
of Patker 8. Williams, nnd from there
ho telephoned to fire-engine companies In
Narberth, Ardmore, Conshohocken and
lUdnor, It Is believed that the fire was
caused by a painter's torch. A workman
m employed at the house and was
jeraplng paint from the porch when the
blaze broke out.

not to send the circular which went broad
cast to the Republicans of the city ask
ing for financial support to any city em
ployes. If any had fallen Into the hands
of city employes, by any unfortunate
chance, it was iot his fault.
"It was deliberate misrepresentation for
the newspaper to say I did any such
thing," he said. "And there was certainly
no '10 per cent." marked on the letters.
This attack on me Is hypocritical, too,
becnuse the present city administration
!ia enforced more contributions for din
ners to exploit the greatness of city em
ploves' superiors than ever was secured
bvthe Republican City Committee when
the law permuted requests ior uui -trihutlons.
In those dajs nothing like
10 per cent, was ever sought.
"It was 1 per cent, for men with $1000
salniics, 2 per cent, for those getting
J20M and 2 per cent, for $3000 and over."
Harry WIttIg, secretary of the Organi
zation's City Committee, who supervised
the (tending out of the circulars, said
he was positive none had been sent to
city emploves.

The Republican Organization claims an
overwhelming majority of the enrolled

election, It was pointed out by Inde
pendent leaders today, Thomas B. Smith

Intends to wage Its campaign upon the

Was't Alexander's sterl

what brought the bacon

the Phillie team has got the

And talking of chaih

fee a winner for the very
same reason that the Phil

quality of the individual
