Penned In Death Trap

When the little ones reached the foot
Of the stairs they found the flames close
upon them, and so swift rush was
made for the door that in an instant
tightly packed mass of children was
piled up against it. From that second
none of these who were upon any Dor
tion of the first flight of stairs had a
chance for their lives. The children a
the foot Of the stairs attempted to fight
their way back to the floors above,
while those who were coming dowr
showed them merclessly back into the
flames below.
In an instant there was frightful
panic, with POO Of the pupils fighting
for their lives. Most of those who were
killed died here. The greater part of
those who escaped managed to turn
back and reached the fire escape and the
windows in the rear.
What happened at the foot Of that
first night Of stairs will never be known.
for all Of those who were caught In the
full fury of the panic were killed. After
the flames had died away, however. a
huge heap Of little bodies told the tale
as well as anybody need to know it,

Story Of the Disaster

The schOolhOuse was of brick, two
stories and an attic in height. contain
ing nine rooms. The number of pupils
was more than normally large. and the
smaller children had been placed in the
upper part of the building There was
but one fire escape, and that was in the
rear of the building. There were two
stairways, one leading to door in
front and the other to door in the rear.
When the flames were discovered the
teachers, who throughout seem to have
acted with courage and self-possession
and to have struggled heroically for the
safety of their pupils, marshaled the
little ones into column for the fire dril''
which they had often practlced.
Unfortunately the line of march in
this exercise had always led to the
front door and the children had not
been trained to seek any other exit
The fire came from a furnace situated
directly under this part of the building.

Building Destroyed In Half Hour

The flames spread with such terrific
rapidity that within thirty minutes
from the time the fire was discovered
the schoolhOuse was nothing but few
blackened walls surrounding a cellar
filed with corpses and debris.
The firemen dashed into the blazing
wreckage and with rakes, forks, shovels
and their bare hands worked in the
most frantic manner with the hope of
saving few more lives. They were un-
successful. for none was taken out alive
from the ruins after the floors collapsed.
Fragments OF incinerated limbs, skulls
and bones were found almost at every
turn, and these were piled together in a
little heap at one side of the building.
The great majority of the little
bodies that were taken from the ruins
were burned beyond all possible recog-
milton. And 1t is no small part Of the
sorrow which is bearing down the peo-
pie of North Collinwood that positive
Identification Of many Of the children
will never be made.

A Elinnant Critic.

After the performance of Wagner's
"Rheingold" at Berne Switzerland, the
Berner Fremdenblatt contained an ac-
count of the performance which caused
much comment. One German paper in
reproducing excerpts from the remark
able criticism says, in reading it we
could not quite determine whether the
writer was a rogue or one of the Mark
Twain school who would enter the
most sacred realms of culture with
savage freedom" '.The OPERA" says
the critic, furnished much amuse.
ment, especially the evolutions Of the
merry Rhein daughters. Their tricks
were charming, and If the orchestra
had played more appropriate music
the effect would have been perfect
From what we had heard we expected
better music. Certain parts-the most
tuneful ones-were reminiscent of Men
delssohn, and this originality seemed
natural to us, because we knew tina,
when Wagner was the child prodigy
in Leipsic Felix Mendelssohn directed
the Gewandhaus concerts in that city
All in all the opera is rather stale, blu,
with the fine scenery and real steam
clouds it was bearable. 1t is probably
necessary that one should see this
'Rheingold' as well as The Merry Wild
ow,' SO go and see it"
