Burned ON Fire Escape.

On the top floor of the tenement
lived Morris Cohen, his wife and their
children, Sophia, Harry and Benjamin.
The flames were already through the
roof when they were awakened. Es-
cape by the hallway was cut off. Crop
ing their way through the smoke to
the window, Cohen picked up the boy
Harry, and, calling to his wife to fol-
low, got out on the fire escape and
started to descend. Mrs. Cohen car
ried the baby in her arms and the boy
Benjamin followed. Out on the fire
escape, the flames and smoke which
burst from the windows below them
separated the members of the family,
and only Cohen and the boy reached
the street. When the firemen were
finally able to reach the top floor, they
found the bodies of Mrs. Cohen and
the other two children blackened and
burned, lying on the fire escape land
ing.
The damage by the fire is estimated
at $4,000.

Given Surprise.

London, April 1.-Oxford's cock
swain snatched a victory from Cam
bridge Saturday in boat steering
race after the light-blues Cambridge
had led by length and half at
Barnes bridge, an advantage which
at that point is supposed to mean
sure victory.
The crew were so evenly matched
that clever steering meant every
thing. In this alone the dark-blues
(ONford) had the advantage. The
weather could hardly be worse. Rain
fell all night, and, with strong
south wind, made discouraging out
look. The race was upstream, on q
flood tide, with a sevenknot breeze
on the port quarter at the start,
which was made at 1925 a. m.
Evenly Matched.
Both crews rowcd down to the
starting skiffs. There was little to
choose between them in action or
physique. AT Col. Williams signals
the crews caught the water togeth-
er. but Cambridge's snappy stroke
gave them shade better of the
start. Cambridge rowed "a strokes
to the minute at the start, and Ok
ford 35, which brought the dark
blues abreast of Cambridge and gave
them fractional lead, which they

lures of the Exposition.
Horticulture, viticulture and floricul-
ture are linked together in one great
class. In the midst of a country of
orchards and vineyards the Pan-Amer-
lean Exposition will have abundant
material close at hand and of the finest
quality from which to make an exhibit
worthy of the great event. The extern
sive floral decorations of the grounds
constitute a rich display in Horticulture,
and several acres, including hundreds
of beds, are devoted to the exhibits
made by leading florists of the country.
Flowers in profusion win welcome the
earliest visitors and breathe out their
fragrance and display their incompara-
BILE beauty the season through. Thou
sands Of trees and shrubs flourish
throughout the grounds. Double rows
of thrifty trees surround the principal
buildings. Foliage and flowers there
will be in great profusion. In the hor-
ticultural establishment of the grounds

efforts Of all former expositions.
