Fifteen Lives Lost in Tene"sn'

E,steen Lives Lost in TenemSn'
Hou.. Fire at Newark, n. }.
Newark. n. j.. March l3.-Ftteen per-
sons, the majority Of whom were emlaiea'
nerished in tenement house fire at MOTIFS
and Fourteenth avenue. The bullains was
a thres-story frame structure 1ofheiiy
used as a church, but transformed into
tenement house with small rooms opening
into narrow Railways on both the secoho
and third floors, forming veritaoie nre
trap. 1t is in the heart OF the ltallah us
trict and great excitement prevailed
When it became known that the lire was
of incendiary origin, men and women wei,
nigh crazed with grief, ran tearing AROUND
the streets looking for the man who was
responsible for the frightful tragedy and
threatening dire vengeance.
There were at least II families IN the
place, 60 persons in all, OF whom perhaps
20 were children unable to care for them
selves.
Four men jumped from the front win
dows. Several we're hurt. The flames
spread with frightful rapidity and the
wind sent the sparks to the southeast
threatening all the frame tenements IN
that direction.
The place was like roaring caldron
when the fremen arrived. Ladders were
quickly put in position and then began the
work of rescue. One after another the
women and then the men were taken down
while other fremen devoted their atten-
ton to drowning the flames. This they
succeeded in doing in less than an hour,
but during that hour frightful sacrifice
had been offered. Nearly every room IN
the house contained its victim. Few were
really burned to death. Most OF them
were smothered.
Vito Credavo, one Of the tenants, is
locked up on suspicion of having set tire
to the building.

Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Peruna is the only abso-

beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out OF
its victims. Peruna not only cures
catarrh, but prevents it.
