CHILDREN DIE BY FIRE.
cremated In Farmhouse While Parents
Look HeIplessIy On.

Look HeIplessIy On.
Cumberland, Md, Feb. Sat
o'clock this morning the farmhouse of
William P. Robertson, about 20 miles
east of here on the Maryland side of
the Potomac river, was entirely de-
stroyed by fire and four of the Robert
son children, Pearl, Owen, Efie and
Joseph, the oldest aged 10 and the
youngest years, were cremated
The fire, which is thought to have
started from sparks from an open
hearth, spread so rapidly that Mr.. and
Mrs. Robertson found all means of es-
cape gone for the children, who were
asleep in another room, and were com
PEELED to jump from a second story
window dressed only in their night
clothes, in order to save their own
lives. The parents made several fu-
tile attempts to reach the children, but
were driven back by the flames, and
after the fire had subsided somewhat
they were almost frozen before aid
came from neighbors. Mr.. Robertson
claims the hearth fire was we'll Gov
cred and that the fire, which started
from lower floor, must have been of
incendiary origin.
The tragedy recalls the murder of
an old man named Kessler and the
burning of his house; also the burning
of the house of an old woman, in
which she and her grandchildren lost
their lives, both of which occurred sew
eral years ago in the vicinity Of yes
