II was about o'clock Saturday
afternoon that Mrs. Bickling. who.
with her children. was sitting In tne
back parlor. was frightened to see
smoke and flames trickling up
through the floor. Shouting to the
hired girl. Mrs. Bickling rushed to
the basement. There We're no men
about the place.
When the women arrived in the
basement they were met by n wall of
smoke and flame. Rushing into the
room they obtained buckets and be-
gan carrying water from near sink.
After half an hours heroic work the
flames were out.
Mrs. Bickling thinks 1t possible
that the hired men had been smok-
ing in the basement and that 1t was
a cigarette or cigar stump which
may have caused the fire.

Thomas A. Cavanaugh. husband OF
the woman who was killed by a Colo
RADIO 4 Southern train at the Elev-
enth avenue crossing last week, Will,
through his attorneys, Joseph C. Ew-
ing and William h. Kelley. bring
suit against the railroad for the re-
covery OF $4,000 alleged damages.
Cavanaugh has decided positively
that he Will not sett'e with the rail-
road and will fight the case to the
end. He is penniless and he feels
that the railroad is to blame in the
accident and that the surest method
Is to bring suit directly against the
corporation.
1t Ia said that the case against the
railroad Is good one and Cavanaugh
mas every reason to believe. 30 1t Ia
said. that he will recover the entire
amount asked for.
The attorneys employed on the
case are now busy drawing up the
papers, which will be filed in the
course Of few days, and the allega-
tions of neglect which were brouph+
out In the coroner jury will be
made in the complaint.
Owing to the fact that Ralph Cliff
ton. the delivery man for the Jacobs
meat market. was the only witness
to the accident and the further fact
that every statement, both OF him
SELF and the other witnesses. ia
against the railroad, there Ia no doubt
In Cavanaugh's mind but thar ho ,,t,,
be successful in the suit
