rho Father, Mother and Child Found

Was Consumed
PITTrBUEG. PA, November 22-About
4:3O this morning an alarm of fire was rupR
at Sharpsburg, = town on the outskirts Of
Pittsburs, and the department was soon on
its way 10 the blaze, which was discovered
10 be in the house owned by Il. w. Dame
hover Little water could be obtained,
ana il is doubtful if the house could have
been saved had there been a sufficient
supply. The flames were beyond control,
and the only thought was the safety
of the inmates OF the house, Inquiry
among those who first reached the fire dts
closed the TACT that no one had been seen
to come from the house and rush was
made for the building, but the brave men
were driven back by the flames. Three
times attempts were made TO rescue the
family but in vain. Several persons mar.
rowly escaped being burned and suffocated
in their efforts TO get inside the house and
rouse or rescue the inmates OF the doomed
building All this time no signs Of life had
come from the burning house but the GER
tainty that human lives were being lost
caused the most heroic efforts to be made.
At 80 this morning w. q. Myers,
Chief Of the Sharpsburg fire depart
ment and William Wecbecker, also
Of the fire department, succeeded in climb
ing over the burning timbers and reaching
what was the sleeping room of the family.
The bed was entirely consumed and lying
on the floor near the former location of the
bed were three objects, the charred and
blackened remains of the family. The
bodies were horribly burned and that Of
MIR. Dannehower almost burned TO crisp.
The location of the remains would indi-
cate they had been suffocated in bed and
when the bed was consumed the bodies fell
to the floor. DannehoWer was about 80
years of age and had been married about
two years. The Coroner will hold an in
quest. How the fire started is not known.

THAT BOOTH ANNIVERSARY
Hartford May Celebrate 1t Too.

Hartford MAY Celebrate 1t Too.
The Religious Herald says: The Con-
gregationalists of New Haven will celebrate
on the Oath of October the three hundredth
anniversary of Congregationalism. The
first church of this order was organized in
London. The Rev. DIR. E. P. Parker of
Hartford has been invited to deliver poem
at New Haven in commemoration of the
event that took place three hundred years
ago. The first Congregational church in
the United States commenced its existence
at Plymouth in 1920. 1t was not formed
there, but sprsng into existence in the
neighborhood of Scrooby, England. Its
membership Was made up of presidents
of Scrooby, Austerield and Bawtry.
From England this church in body, or at
least large part of it, migrated to Leyden
in Holland, and after remaining there
eleven years returned to England and from
thence, leaving at the port of Plymouth,
set sail for the new world and landed at
Plymouth in North America on December
%, 1920. Both branches have grown to be
influential and have borne an active part
in all enterprises having a tendency to pro-
mote the evangelizing of the world. Oil
yer Cromwell, the political leader, the sue
cessful general, was of this communion
and was the first man of distinction to ad-
vocate the theory of perfect rsligiousliberty.
We trust some appropriate method of hon
oring this day may be found out by those
of that faith in Hartford. The old historic
first church should properly take the lead
in the matter. There are but few older
Congregational churches in the world
known by that name, though it would
seem to have been the primitive method
adopted by the churches of Judea.

A CHINAmAN,s SHARPNESS

Saves Him From Paying for Articles
Which the owner Had Received.
A very ingenious scheme to defraud a
Chinaman was exposed yesterday on Grand
avenue, and the Chinaman deserves credit
for the business-like manner in which he
foiled the conspirators.
A few weeks ago man living on Grand
avenue sent shirt and collars to the China
man. When they were finished he pre-
scented half of the check which was given
him, and after little hesitancy on the
part of the Chinaman, the articles were
handed over. All went we'll until yester-
day morning, when the ten -year-old daugh-
ter of the man presented the other half of
the check, at the same time asking for the
shirt and collars. The Cinnamon after
looking at the check refused to give any
thing and the girl, after little argument,
went home and returned with her mother.
The mother threatened the Chinaman
with arrest and called Officer Farrell.
When the officer came in, however, the
Chinaman being unable to explain the mat.
ter in his broken English, took down all
his checks, which were on file, and picked
out one which exactly matched the one In
dispute. When the woman was confronted
with the matched fragment of the checb
she stammered an apology and departed.

the close caused a recovery. Chicago Gas ami
