Jewell, Dec. 1.-The bodies Of the
two students, who lost their lives In
the fire which destroyed the main
building of the Jewell Lutheran Col
lege here yesterday have both been re-
covered, altho charred almost beyond
recognition. The correct names OF the
two dead students are julius Peterson,
of Frost, Mimi, and Burton Millang, of
Liberty township, this county. Sew
eral other students were more or less
severely injured by being compelled to
jump from third story windows. There
We're two fire escapes on the building
by which many escaped, but not all
were able to reach them. Quite num-
ber OF students had provided them
selves with ropes to meet Just such
an emergency, and were able to save
themselves.
The Jewell Lutheran College was
founded in the year OF 1898, just ten
years ago this summer.
In the building destroyed were the
dining and recitation rooms and chap
ell, with the fourth story occupied by
male students, with their bed rooms.
The fire was not discovered until II
had gotten under good headway.
The ladies' dormitory, new building
which has just recently been built and
stood only short distance from the
main building was kept from burning
only by the constant flow of water from
the fire company's hose, The building
originally cost between $4,000 and $23.-
900 while the fixtures were valued at
$4,000. There is talk of rebuildiHs and
on a larger scale. as the college was on
a good paying basis and was at this
time more prosperous than at any time
during its history.
