A FATHERS NEGLIGENCE.
Results in a Terrible Holocaust
Near Hardeeville, s. G.
A FAMILY OF NINE CREMATED.

Father. Mother and seven children
the Victims of MakeshiFt Arrange
ment which Had Resulted From g
Disaster In Last Autumn's storms.
Savannah, Ca, May 29.-Mail ad-
vices from Hardeeville, S. c., say:
About three miles from this village, on
the Oestreicher farm, last Tuesday
night, occurred a terrible tragedy, In
which nine persons lost their lives.
A two story frame building on the
farm was occupied by Jacob Solomons,
his wife and seven children, the eldest
aged 16 years, and the youngest an in
FAINT Of ] year. On Wednesday some
one passing saw that the house was
gone, and on approaching to investi-
gate found that every vestige of it was
burned and the bodies of the nine oc-
oupants, or rather the charred trunks
of nine human bodies, were lying in
the ashes.
The coroner's inquest disclosed these
facts: That the house was shattered
in the lower story by the last autumnal
storms, which also carried away the
chimneys; that Solomons had resorted
to the makeshift of building two fires,
one to cook on and the other for
warmth, inside the lower stories of the
house, on two circular mill saws, raised
from the board floor on small pieces OF
iron. The soke. sparks and flame es-
capped from the fire as best they could.
Evidently after the family had re,
tired upstairs the blow that came up
at IL o'clock that night famed the
flames, which communicated to the
partition of the stairway and set the
house afire,
Agonizing shrieks. 1t was learned,
were heard by a neighbor mile dis
tant, and must have come from these
unfortunate creatures when they were
precipitated into the holocaust that
was yawning below them. Jacob, the
father; Amy, the wife and mother;
Rollins, Hattie, Charlie, Nora, Isaac
Willie and Mamie were all burned.
The verdict of the coroner's jury was
in effect that they came to their deaths
through the culpable negligence of ia.

New York. May 29.-Howard Kretz.
a young man about ~ years OF age,
who says he il an art student OF the
academy OF design in this city, made
startling and successful jump from the
Brooklyn bridge Just before dusk last
evening and came out Of the river un-
injured.
Just before O'Clock Kretz boarded
q trolley car bound for Brooklyn. II
was an open one. and offered all the
advantages which he was looking for.
When the trolley reached a point about
100 hundred yards from the first arch.
near the highest point OF the span,
Kretz leaped from the car and, like a
flash, vauted over the high railing.
He took no time 20 steady himself for
a perpendicular drop and swung some
distance out from the structure before
he assumed an upright position.
Kretz's body struck the water feet
first. cleaving Il like an arrow. He
disappeared for some seconds, and then
shot up into view again, only TO disap-
pear for the second time. The waters
had hardly closed over him when he
reappeared and Immediately struck
! out strongly for the New York shore
The freight steamer Vulcan, which was
coming down the East river, headed
for the young man, a line was thrown
to Kretz and he was hauled aboard the
