HITLER AND YONDER
NEWS ITEMS OF MANY KINDS
FROM MANY PLACES,
Firos Nearly Destroy the Towns or Brad
ford. Pa, and GAINESVILLE, Ohio. CO., The
Cold Weather Seriously Interfered and
100 Firemen Were Badly Frozen.

Fire was discovered at an cary
morning hour in the Sheehan house,
Bradford, Pa, and before the occu-
pants were awakened the whole build
ing was in lanes, and none saved
more than their night clothes Two
women in jumping from upper win
dows were seriously injured. The
fire spread on both sides and threat
ened the entire town. A furious
blizzard was raging at the time the
fire was first discovered, and the mer-
curry stood at degrees below zero.
The firemen Immediately responded TO
the general alarm and fought bravely
for several hours. Mrs. j. f. McQuis-
ton, rushed from her rooms in one of
the burning blocks with her clothing
and hair ablaze. The Fl. emen saved
her from cremation. Her husband
was badly burned and before the ire
was eXtinguished had his hands and
ears frozen. At least 100 of the fire
men had their ears, face or hands
ost-bitten more or less severely.
Robert Sisco and Robert lIelme are so
badly frozen that their condition is
critical. Ice fully an inch thick froze
on the 6remen clothing, placing
them in an armor that impeded their
work materially. The total loss will
aggregate 100000 with about $50, 200
insurance.

joining business houses. When the fire
department, one steamer only. arrived
the fire had big start and the de-
partment was entirely Inadequate, the
very cold weather adding to the diff
Guilty. Telegraphic appeals fer aid to
the Wheeling, cambridge and Zanes-
vile fire departments were at once
sent out, but-in n short time the cistern
that supplied the engine went dry and
the request was countermanded. The
fire burned itself out.
The machine shops and engine room
of Cheney Bros silk mill at South
Manchester, Conn, was Quilted by fire,
the loss being S75. 900 While assisting
in the effort to subdue the blaze, Cor

cold at the time and nine children,

Horrible sccneJ In China.

London: A dispatch from Tien Tsin
says that Manchurian princes have
taken the defence of the country into
their own hands in order TO prevent
the intrigues of the Chinese officials.
The central government is bewildered
and helpless. Chinese who have ar
rived from Manchuria bring CHASTITY
reports of the desolation of the country
between the Yalu river and the Lao
Ho, recalling the worst horrors of the
TAPPING rebellion. Not house is
standing. Everything has been burned
and whole populations have persisted.
Only scattered groups of frozen corpses
are seen, apparently those of entire
families. Neither food nor fuel is pro-
durable. Stragglers from the Chinese
army who have taken refuge in the
hills have become savages, lost TO all
human feelings. The sufferings Of the
wounded are terrible. The movements
of both the Chinese and Japanese
troops are hindcred by the failure OF
supplies from the terrified populace
The prospect of an extension Of such
scenes appalls even the stolid Chinese.
