Lenox, Mass, April 12.-Six people

other structures we're destroyed in a
section bounded by Franklin, Main,
Housatonic and Church streets. The
fire Is believed to have started In the

The dead are Edward G.. Ventres,

A fortunate shift of wind saved the
public library and the fashionable Cur

and Boston.
The loss of life occurred in the Cliff
ford building where the blaze started,
and resulted primarily from series
of explosions among the turpentine,
paints oils and dynamite stored in the
cellar of the james Clifford & Sons
Company, hardware dealers.
The death of Miss Alice French was
one of the pitiful tragedies. While
the fire in the Clifford block was at

out of fiame-filled room onto a We

night clothing and her hair ablaze.
Staggering to the railing, the woman

NEAR-FREEZE IN DELAWARE
Frost Nips the Early Buds and Tender
TWAS.

Dover Del, April 12-Fruit through
out the length and breadth of the pc
ninsula sustained serious shock last
night. when the never-failing April
frost struck the opening buds and ten
der twigs, fairly freezing the sap, the
very marrow in the bones of fruit
trees, by morning.
Paches, plums, pears and the small
fruits are now well advanced. 1t was
near-freeZe and not a complete
freeze. and thus much of the best
fruit has escaped irreparable injury.
Examinations in Kent county showed
that only small percentage of the
buds gave evidences of having been
killed outright. and there is hope that
large proportion of the crop has sur
yived the frigid shock.
