but it was first seen in the pressroom. and
il spread TO the elevator well and darted 70
the top so rapidly that before the occu-
pants of the two upper floors were aware
that the building was on fire, their rooms
were filled with flames and smoke. In the
editorial rooms on the sixth floor there
were but five men. All had to run for their
lives. On the upper floor, occupied by the
composing room, were eighteen compositors
and proofreaders. whose situation was most
critical. Panic-stricken they rushed for
the windows leading to the fire escapes,
and all but three of them succeeded in
gaining the roof of an adjoining building.
Long ladders were raised as quickly as the
network of electric wires over the street
would permit. but before a ladder could be
placed in position the men had dropped
through a skylight i'm the building roof,
and reached places of safety.
Except in the pressroom in the basement
there was practically no fire in the building
below the fifth story. No one was i'm the
pressroom at the time the fire started ex-
cept the fireman, who had not been seen
up TO a late hour. II took three hours of
work TO drown the fire. This three victims,
all prOofreaders, were Suffocated before
they had time to reach the fire escapes.
Those who found the bodies were obliged to
jump several feet 10 the roof of the ad-
joining building, and liz this way quite a
number of them sustained injuries.
AS soon as il was seen that the resources
of the Advertiser and Record for Issuing
the editions of their papers regularly were
destroyed, offers of assistance were re-
ceived from the proprietors of all the other
newspapers In the city.
Late tonight the loss was estimated at
$50, 600, with little insurance.

LITTLE GIRL ASSAULTED.
ChOkcd by n Farm Hand, Who Is
Arrested After an AII-Night Search.

HAMILTON, o., March 15.-Winchester,
n small town in Preble county, was the
scene of great excitement to-day. A farm
hand named Henry Hobs, employed on the
farm of Sol Smith, four miles northwest
Of Winchester, was locked up in the vii
loge Jail, this morning, on suspicion of
attempting TO criminally assault an eleven
year-old girl at the district school,, five
piles west Of Winchester, yesterday. The
little girl, Edith Shinkle. daughter of a
farmer. was choked and threatened by the
man in an outhouse adjoining the school.
When the man threatened her with a knife
she screamed. This frightened him away.
Later in the day a posse, composed of
nearly every farmer for miles around. was
formed 10 search for Hobs. He was not
found till this morning, when Marshal Rob-
ert Bralton. of Winchester. discovered him
in a nearby woods. and placed him in the
village lookup. He il a white man. The
excitement of the night before was quieted
TO al extent by the arrest, but during
the day Winchester was thrOnged with
people from the country roundabout. For
a time a lynching was feared. Miss Shinklc
went To Winchester this afternoon and
identified the suspect. He will likely be
given a hearing tomorrow, by the village
mayor, and then taken to Eaton, the
county-seat Of Preble county. The suspect
would doubtless nave been quickly dealt
with had the posse capture him.. but now
