The careless throwing Of a lighted match
into pile of oily waste paper by boy In
Stettheimer & Co.'S shirt waist factory, on
Rcvier street, Troy, N. Y, caused fire which
destroyed the factory and panic in which
three lives were lost and many injured.
Thirty minutes before the evening closing
hour. when the $50 girls and women en-
ployed in the factory were working rapidly
to finish up. Lille Kreiger, who was work
ing near a machine in the cutting-room on
the fifth floor, called to a small boy to light
the gas over her work.
The boy struck match and threw the burn
Ing stub to the floor. 1t struck pile OF oily
rags and in an instant the girl was enveloped
in flames. With her clothes and hair burn
ing she rushed to the window and in an in
slant the room became struggling, Shrek
ing mass OF humanity, filling the windows,
the fire escapes and the only stairway.
Jamming and pushing, tearing each 9TH
ers' clothes from their backs, turning in mar
row corridors to find a sister or mother or
friend. the number in the exits augmented
every minute by those from the other floors,
these girls and women fought Cor their lives
to gee away from the flames that spread
through the building.

awning. fell on her back and bounced to her
hands and knees OH the walk. She got up
and staggered about until people helped her
to her feet again.
By this time nearly every window had
female form dangling from it, and when the
iremen arrived there was hustle to get the
ladders up.
At the centre window Cd the sixth floor a
woman, hanging by her hands, was forced
out by the flames against her face. With
last shrek, shs let go AMI came tumbling
over and over until she struck the pavement,
When picked up it was found that she was
Mrs. Margaret Carroll. Her spinal column
was forced through into her brain.
Just below her in another window hung a
woman, turning with appealing gla1ces to
the crowd Tho black smoke was pouring
ftom the window, but as yet no flames were
visible, and the crowd yelled encourayingly
to her to hold on, but a red hano reached
out Just then and touched her face and In an
instant her body was rebounding from the
pavement. She was Mrs. Foley, widow,
and when picked up was dead.
On the same floor, hanging from another
window, was a woman, and salvation in the
shape of ladder was most within her grasp
when her strength failed her, AMI she went
twirling down to death. She was Mrs. Kane.

going into the midst of the smoke and

The fire burned 50 ncrcely by this time that
no detailed search of the building could be
made. and from what can be learned there
we're many girls and women on the three
upper stories, either lying in fainting fits or
also overcome by smoke. 1t was this fact
that led to the rumors that there were at
least twenty women dead.
The flames ate down through three floors
50 quickly that the Western Union Telegraph

flames spread to adjoining buildings.
About o'clock the flremen heard Shrek,

named Joseph Rossi, who kept stand in

brave little group buried from view. When
the smoke and dust had cleared there was

the men were taken out. All were injured.
They were removed to the hospital. The

Dreadful
Malaria.

There are numerous diseases having
their origin in the blood, but which on
the surface do not appear to be blood
disease. Such is Malaria, which is a
poison breathed into the lungs, and thus
taken into the blood and circulated, i'm
buirg the entire system with its morbid
effects. Those who have suffered from
this dreaded disease know what a life
less condition ensues and how the vitality
is wasted away so that death is often
caused by some simple malady, because
of the low ebb to which life is reduced
by this poverty of blood. This cOndi-
ton of the blood often gives rise to
boils, carbuncles, Assesses and ulcers,
and not infrequently causes catarrh,
bronchitis, and even consumption.
