Louisville, KY, has boon visited by
series OF fatal fros by which at least eleven
lives wore lost and probAbly half million
dollars worth OF property destroyed. The
first fire was discovered In the store OF the
Boone Paper Company on Main street Be-
fore IL was subdled the entire place was
Quilted and the stock destroyed, entailing
loss OF S65000 Five Hremen are believed
TO have lost their lives either I'm the flames
or by being buried under the falling walls.
They are missing and it seems impossible
that they could have escaped, The city
had not recovered from the effect OF this
last horror when another confiagration, more
awful In its destruction OF human life, added
fresh fuel 20 the popular Sarief. The latest
fire, by which five young girls and one man
burned to death, was In the four-story
candy and fireworks factory of Meune &
Co., at ST. West Main street The firm was
getting ready for the Christmas trade and
employed an extra number OF girls to wrap
and pack CONNECTIONS. They were all at
work on the fourth floor The origin of the
fire is unknown. There was tremendous

fame burst from the windows. Before the
employees knew of their danger the skylights
burst and the panlc-stricken help ran
to the stairway. Three of them, Lille
Greenyell, Trecy Hohlhaus and Katie Nc
Garvey, reached the'third floor just as the
stairs leading to the fourth floor caught
fire. Behind them came the five other girls,
but before they could reach the bottom IL
wall OF fire cut off their progress and they
fed back to the top, where they were
burned to death. Fifteen or twenty brave
men rushed into the building at one time
TO rescue them, but were driven back by
the fierce heat The cries Of the impris-
oned girls soon ceased and the floors fell,
one after another until finally nothing
was left of the building but the lettering
walls. In the rear were assembled the
mothers and fathers of some of the girls
who were burned TO death inside and their
manifestations OF grief were pitiable in the
extreme They implored the fremen to
save their children, and they had great
trouble ia keeping some OF the more fsen-
sied ones from walking into the hanses-
