Hot Dorknob Saves from Death.


New York, Nov. 4.-But for q hot
doorknob, conscientious performance
of his duty. and the quick wit of a
policeman, eight human lives would
probably have been lost early yester-
day in fire at No. $40 West Broad
way.
1t was the hot knob which told the
officer that there was a fire inside the
building. He was industriously trying
doorknobs on his West Broadway beat
to see IL thieves were about, when his
hand was burned. When giving call
for assistance he smashed the door. A
big blaze was in progress on the
ground floor and heat was intense.
Covering themselves in bedspreads
and blankets, the occupants of the
house were hustled downstairs to safe
ty by the policeman.

awaited here with intensity of interest
greater than displayed since the begin
