A Terrific Blaze.

BosroN, June pa terrific fire, accom-
panied by loss of life, this afternoon de-
stroyed the New England Institute, a fine
building on Huntington Avenue. The
building was built by the New England
Manufacturers and Mechanics Institute
for exhibition purposes at a cost OF nearly
$500, 900 last Winter. 1t was purchased
by the Metropolitan Street Railroad Com
a for $500, 900, and has since been
used as a place for storing and repairing
cars. So quickly did the flames spread
that before the first engine had arrived the
immense roof had fallen, and the build
ing was a roaring mass Of flames.
LATER-There are now many men In
side. When the fire broke out all rushed
for the rear windows. Most Of them were
helped out, but while the rush WAS being
made to one of the windows the scorched
and bleeding face Of a person was seen. de
fell back into the seething mass and was
past all help. A colored man, name un'
known, went back into the burning build
| ing to save some property, and was not
| seen to come out again. Chester H.. Haz'
eltine and E. l.. Farren had an opportu-
uity to escape, but in endeavoring to pull
out some cars were frightfully burned.
