ALMOST 4 FITiLITT.
a Narrow Escape From Being Burned
10 Death,

to Death,
AsPolicc Onlccr Shanlls passed up Tenth
street, near Rhode Island avenue, this morn
ing, about twenty minutes past o'clock, he
heard the cry of "murdcr." lie fastened
his footsteps and saw smoke in the direc-
ton from which the cry came. At once he
turned I'm an alarm, and, locating the fire at
the residence OF Mr.. Alexander H.
Stevens No. 03l Rhode Island avenue, he
burstcd in the back door OF Mr. Stevens
residence and found himself In the dining
room, which was In blaze and filed with
smoke.
The cry Of murder heard by the officer
was uttered by the two colored servants
Ida Crown and Anna Marshall, who Jumped
out OF the secondstory window, but who
were not seriously injured When he got
into the house he heard a woman cry; "For
Gods sake save my childn This was Mrs
stevens, and she and her husband were
down stairs In their night clothes Shanks
rushed through the burning room and found
Mrs. Stevens in the front passage and took
her ana her child TO neighbours house.
The fire originated in the dining-room
and was caused by an open crate. The
flames spread TO the parlors and scorched
the lace curtains before the Fire Depart
ment could arrive, so great u start had the
flames. Had the escape Of the occupants
been delayed few minutes later, some OF
them would probably have persisted. The
damage to the property was about $500.
Mr.. Stevens reports that during the excite.
ment there was lost a watch worth $500 and
diamond stud worth $50.
