the front floor having burned through,
making the stairs impossible. The smoke
was rolling up the narrow stair-cases and
awakened the inmates. Before the fire
men could arrive with their ladders they
had either leaped from windows or gone to
the roof In hope of safety or dropped

comprises FIVE. which number may be
increased to seven or eight. The old
couple made their escape and were not
heard of during the night. The Gillespie
family escaped with the exception of the
wife and mother; the latter, fifty years
old, might have escaped by walking
only about feet, but she became be

injuries are terrible burns external an in
ternal. Rose Pfeiffer aged % was found in
the hall of the second floor. Mrs. Pfeifer

aud were but slightly hurt, but Pfeiffer' s
father was lost. Meroth on the third
floor lifted his SOD Charles aged IA out of
the window and allowed him to drop to the
ground distance of 40 feet; then in-
structed his wife and daughter, Rose, to
jump which they did. Last of all he him
self jumped down and in falling met with
instant death. Mrs. Meroth is at the city

one arm and her face bruised beyond all
recognition; the daughter Rose sustained
no serious injury but Charles is badly hurt.
Holdred took his wife to the roof then
went down stair where he was caught by

seventy and eighty men, women and child

Crescent mills. The company was divided
into two parties and one was taken to the
Stafford mill, the other to a block on
Davis street. Ii was subsequently decid-
ed to remove the latter party to house in
the rear of the Crescent mill, some few
hundred yards away, The party consisted
of two men besides the agent who brought
them here, four women and the remainder
young boys and girls from IS years of age
downwards As the party came out On
the street they were hooted at by crowd
of women. children and some men, and a
few stones were thrown. To make the
shortest cut they took to what is known as
the Stone Crusher Lot" where they were
assaulted by crowd of $50, mostly men.
Rocks we're thrown at them in perfect
showers and one of the men named Bouche,
was so roughly assaulted that man who
witnessed the whole fair said be did not
expect to see hun come out of it alive. He
was severely kicked and bruised by a
stone. A woman with babe 10 her arms
was Knocked tdown and kicked. A little
boy about seven years Of age was struck
IN the face and all the little children were
stoned as well as older persons. The
