So. SIDE FAMILY
AGAIN BEREAVED

The first death resulting from the
present prevalence of diphtheria and
the second fatality, within the last
six months in the family of Mr.. and
Mrs. John +. Rifle, of South Dan
vile, occurred on Monday night when
their twelve year old son, Francis,
died after an illness of but four days.
The lad was particularly bright for
one of his years and for six months or
more had been employed as a newsboy
by the agency of the Philadelphia pap
ers i'll this city.
On Friday Francis came home from
school and, complaining of headache,
went to bed. He grew rapidly worse
and DR.. n. NJ. Smith on being sum
moned, pronounced the ailment well
developed case of diphtheria. Anti
toxin was administered and every
thing possible done to check the dis
ease. About l. 20 Monday night the
boy asked for drink of water and
made an effort to raise himself ON his
elbow. The exertion was fatal. He
collapsed and breathed his last few
seconds later.
The details of the tragic death of
the two year old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Rifle in May last, are still fresh
in the public mind. The little tot
while playing around a boiler of hot
water, toppled over into the scalding
tiuid, sustaining burns so severe that
she died in twentyfour hours. There
are four children remaining.

THE SECOND FIRE.

Shortly after 10 O'Clock IA fire broke
out in the dwelling of Frank Jameson
at the corner of Factory and West
MahOning streets, which proved more
difficult to extinguish than the first
mentioned fire. At the Jameson dwell
ling the fire originated in a large clos
ct under the front stairway When
discovered the contents of the closet
We're burning rapidly. When the door
was opened volume of smoke and
flame shot out into the room.
Mr.. Jameson was not at home. but
an energetic alarm soon brought help
from the neighbors Frank NewbakeT
was one of the first to arrive and he
did good execution. \ garden hose
was quickly brought into requisition,
but before this could be connected sew
eral buckets of water were obtained
from the hydrant, by means of which
the flames We're checked. The fire,
however, had eaten its way in under
the stair steps where it was difficult
to get at it and where it continued to
burn. 1t was necessary to break a hole
III the stairs before the fire could be
entirely eXtinguished.
One of the family had occasion to
enter the closet with light sometime
before the fire occurred and it is
thought that one of the articles hang
ing inside accidentally caught fire.

HUNTERS BAG
THE LIMIT

The returns are beginning to come
in from hunters who have been trying
their luck since the opening of the
season and the general verdict is that
game of all kinds is plentiful.
AT least a dozen of Danville MINI
rods have bagged tho limit of squir-
rels in one day, namely, six of the
combined kinds, fox, black or grey
squirrels.
Pheasants, which have been scarce
for few years, are said to be on the
increase and very good luck is report
ed. Hunters are inclined to believe
that there was disease among pheas-
ants during last year and the one pre-
vious. Birds were found lying dead
and not few We're shot that were
evidently diseased. The birds this
year are plump and healthy, in addi-
tion to which they are more numer.
Gus, facts which would Indicate that
the disease has died out.
1t is believed by hunters that we are
indebted to the game preserve of Hon.
Alexander Billmeyer for the abund
ance of squirrels and wild turkeys thai
are found ON Montour Ridge. Squir
rels, especially, are propagated by
thousands at the game preserve and it
is only natural to suppose that large
numbers of them yield to their wilC
instinct and seek the mountains tina
lie so near. The wild turkeys spenC
the summer on Montour Ridge anC
that they all return to the game pre-
serve as winter approaches is hardl,

FIRES IMPER|L
TWO DWELLINGS

Two dwellings on West Mahoning
street on adjoining squares were i'm
periled by fire at nearly the same hour
Friday morning. At each place the
flames had gained considerable head
way and were extinguished in the nick
of time.
The first fire occurred about O'Clock.
As Miss Ruth Trainor turned the cor
TO her home on West Mahoning street
her eye was arrested by fire at the sec
ond story window of the building op-
posite III which is situated Frank Link
er's tobacco store and DR.. J. Beaver
Gearhart's dentist rooms. The second
story, i'll which the fire occurred, is u
fiat occupied by William Fausnaught
and family.
When the fire was discovered by
Miss Trainor both the lace and the oil
cloth curtain We're in flames. She gave
the alarm Immediately. Frank Linller
in order to render assistance dashed
up stairs and was the first to inform
the family that there was fire on the
premises, Mrs. Fausnaught being busy
with the morning work in another
part of the fiat.
By that time not only were the cur
tains practically consumed but the
flames had laid hold of the paper ON
the walls. Fortunately a tub of water
was found in the kitchen, by means of
which the flames We're eXtinguished
with little delay.
1t is not known for certainty how
the fire originated. \ noteworthy
feature of the affair is the timely dis
cOYerv.
