EARLY MORNING FIRE,
Narrow Escape Of Mrs. Martin Crow
and Children from Being
Fatally Burned.

Yesterday morning about hall pas,
five Mrs. Martin Crow ard her two
children had narrow escape from
burning and possible death. Mr. Crow
is cook for the st. Francois Hotel, and
with his family occupies one OF the
sutherland cottages on A street, He
| had gone to the hotel, and Mrs Crow
who is subject to heart trouble, started
with lamp into the room where the
children were sleeping, when She sui.
icrcd stroke and fell TO the floor, the
lamp breaking aud setting fire to the
carpet, but fortunately the flames did
not reach her clothing. As soon as
she sufficiently recovered, by which
time the flames had extended to por-
tier hung in the door and other part,
of the room, she ran to the children
and succeeded in getting them ont of
the house. Their cries attracted the
attention Of George Is. Presgroye A,
family, who live just across the street
aud MIR. PreSgrovc and his sister, Mt
Weaver, ran over snd commenced
throwing water on the burning
carpet and wall, soon getting the
flames under control. In the mean.
time the alarm was given and the fire
brigade turned out, BY the time they
reached the house with the hose, the
fire was all out. The furniture was
badly damaged aud the damage to the
house will amount to $500 or more.

The Catholic Church Festival

The festival given by the members
of the Catholic church Wednes isy
evening was one of the most success
ful and best attended they have ever
given. The proceeds were IN the
neighborhood of $500. A handsome
box of candy was voted to the most
popular young lady on the grounds,
which was awarded to Miss Gladys
Rozier. Everything at the booths was
sold out, and an auction of parcels &C.
casioned a good deal of merr!mcnt and
spirited bidding, resulting in nice
little sum for the church.
The members OF the church wish Ia
extend their sincere thanks to every
body who in any way contributed to
the success OF the festival, and also to
express their regrets at the absence Of
the band, which notified them at the
last moment that they would not bt
able to play on account OF one OF the
leaders being taken suddenly i'll.
