Attempt to Burn Building That Con
tanned Sixty Sleeping People.
CINCINNATI, Dec. AT 2 o'clock
Wednesday morning fire was discovered
in grocery store at 512 l-2 Elm street,
kept by Mrs, Solomon Levy. The fire
department responded quickly and after
much difficulty succeeded in taking
from the building sixty people who
We're sleeping when the fire was discov-
cred. The fire was a peculiar and dan
gerous one. After the flames had been
extinguishod examination was made and
developments of startling character
were brought to light.
Early in the evening Mrs. Levy left
home to attend ball, leaving her
daughter in charge Of the store. The
young lady left the building at o'clock,
after having evidently made careful
preparations for burning the house.
Waste saturated with coal oil was found
in the drawers and other places about
the store and in each pile of waste was
a lighted candle, so placed and timed
that the flame would reach the oil sat
urated waste about o'clock. That far
the plan was successful and only the
vigilance of police officer in discover
ing the fire saved the building and it's
occupants. Tho daughter can not be
found, but Mrs. Levy has been arrested,
She is, however, too hysterical to talk,
although what she has said Is COnt!rma-
tory of these statements.

PROHIBITION IN KANSAS.
Rev. Embroe, of Topeka, Says the Presen
Laws Should BE Repealed.

TOPEKA, Kan, Dec. Rev. A. S.
Embree, pastor of the First Methodist
Episcopal church of this city, Sunday
preached a sensational sermon on tenn
perance. He declared that prohibition
was failure; that it had never been en-
forced and could never be enforced, and
that the prohibition laws should be
stricken from the statutes. The con-
tinued violation of the law would lead
to anarchy, and that was what was be-
ing taught to the young men of the
state by the non-enforcement of the
prohibition laws. He, therefore, ad-
vised the repeal of the present prohibi-
ton laws, and the substitution in their
place of sensible local option law.
