SIX WERE BURNED TO DEATH.
The Father Loses Life to Save Other
Members of His Family

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-Six members
of one family were killed by flames and
smoke in a fire that occurred early this
morning in Jersey City. The dead are:
ADOLPH REICH, AZ years old the father
EMMA REICH, AZ years old mother
TILLIE REICH, % years old.
IDA REICH, 10 years.
ALBERT REICH, Il years.
GUSTAV REICH, years.
Several others were injured and 1t
may be that another member of the
Inflated family will die. He is the
nineteen-year-old son and his body is
covered with burns. John Conway,
chief Of the Jersey City fire departm
was very badly burned. He fell
through a burning floor and was res
cued with difficulty. Henry A. Reich,
seventeen years old, managed to make
his escape from the house with bad
burns on the neck, face and hands, but
he is not seriously injured.
Adolph Reich's home was at 317 Ger
mania avenue, near the Hudson coun-
ty boulevard, in the Hudson City dis
trict. He was a real estate agent and
well-to-do, living in pleasant house
Of three stories.
II is believed that the fire broke out
fl ON heater in the basement and 1T
worked it's way up to the third floor,
where the sleeping apartments Of the
family were located. Henry Reich
said it was late when the family re-
tired, the evening having been spent
in entertaining New Years callers.
Early in the morning he was awakened
by shouts. Running into the hall he
saw the smoke and flames in the lower
hall. His father was there, and they
managed to get out Of the house in
their night clothes. Young Reich ran
down the street and gave the alarm.
When he returned his father was no
where to be seen, but one of his broth
ers, Sigmund, was there, badly burned.
He was taken to a neighboring house,
where he said that some one had
awakened him and that he had jump
ed through the binding smoke and
flames down the stairs and out into the
open air.
Several engine companies responded
promptly to the alarm, and ten minutes
later the fire was out. Then began the
search Of the house. The rays from
the ffremen's lanterns disclosed three
cHarreQ pOuleS against the wall at the
foot of the stairs. They were those
Of Adolph Reich, his daughter Title,
and little Gustav. The father had fall
len upon the daughter and his son was
in his arms. They were burned almost
beyond recognition. In the basement
of the house the searching party STUN
bled over the remains of Ida and AL
bert, two blackened corpses with arms
entwined. Portions of the limbs had
haAn entirely burned aWaV and the
faces were horribly distorted. The
mother was found in the dining room
She was burned but slightly. Her face
showed no look Of pain. She undoubt-
edly died from suffocation. The bodies
were sent to the morgue.

Yesterdays Danz Concert, Although
Shiny Attended.

The fourth of the series of the popular
Danz symphony orchestra concerts occurred at
yesterday afternoon. The audience was not
as large yesterday as former occasions,
but this was no doubt owing to the holiday
festivities. There was, as usual, very large
attendance from st. Paul and two of the
lower boxes were filed with people from the
Sanity City. One was occupied by party
made up of Mr.. and Mrs. j. B. TarboX Gov
Merriam. Richards Gordon, Miss Katherine
Gordon, Mr.. and Mrs. Severance Miss Fam
ming, Francis B. Clark and son, Mr.. Porter
and Mr.. Briheam. The other ST. Paul party

and Miss Lempke, Mr. and Mrs. Herman
Schlichting Miss Six and Mr.. and Mrs. H.
F. Schnaitman. Of Chicago; Those of Mr..
Danz's admirers who missed yesterdays cen
cert missed very rare treat, the pro-
gramme of yesterday was the best of the sea-
and bright melody throughout and as usual
under the dictatorship of Mr. Danz, each
number was rendered with unison and perfect
harmony.
The programme opened with sousa's Bride
Elect March" which was played with spirit
and dash, and though the audience tried
"Phedre'' overture followed and was very
well received and warmly appreciated. The
double number, vorspiel, Tristan and Isolde"
and "Isoldes Liebestad," was magnificent
melody made up by all the instruments. To
the encore which was well deserved Mr.
Danz responded agreeably. Herr Frank
Schlachter played Gottermanns concerto in
minor on the cello in a mastery and ar
tistic manner He was accompanied by the
string orchestra, and was obliged to respond
to a deserving encore. A double string num-
Der, La Dernier Sommeil de la VERGE
Massenet, and "Lebeslied," by Taubert,
were perfect musical gems, especially the
"Liebeslied," which is a short and sweet
pizzicato number, and was applauded to the
echo until Mr.. DAM repeated the number.
Wiener Bonbon:" one of the Strauss series
the encore Mr.. DAM responded with Carylrs
"Tarantele.' Mr. DAM showed his good
Judgment in selecting Bizet's suite for or
beautiful climax to the excellent musical pro-
gramme previously rendered. What the au-
dience lacked in numbers yesterday was made
up in enthusiasm, and Mr.. DAM should feel
proud over the manner in which his pro-
gramme was received and appreciated.
