IN BURNING FLAT

NEW YORK, Sept. AIRS: Kate
Aroniwitz, eigPly years old, gave up
her life today 10 save roo persons
in the blazing tenement house at
2O2 East Sixty-eighth street. Her
heroic warning aroused the tenants,
and a wild panic resulted. One
woman leaped from third-story
window, and was probably fatally
injured.
Mrs. Aroniwitz discovered flames
in the basement ot the building.
She tried to put them out. Her
clothing caught fire. Then her one
thought was to save the tenants
who were asleep in the place.
Screaming feebly, she hobbled mp
the stairway until she reached the
fourth floor. There, unnoticed, she
collapsed, and was burned and suf-
located TO death.
But her astounding display of heroism
had its effect. one of the tenants
heard her ries- He got up and ran into

warning aroused everyone, and siam

we. as housewives, are working about
the kitchen stoves. And Christ VIII
not appear unto US so wildly when we
are alone as when. like Peter. in the
darkness OF the night. with Nathaniel
and James and John. we are being
tossed about upon tho waves OF trou-
BILE. May God grant that today, side
by side, we may see the divine face OF
Jesus Christ!
