ESCAPING GAS KILLS
AN ENTIRE FAMILY
Philadelphia Fruit Dealer,
Wife, and Five Children
Are Victims.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 12.-An entire
family OF seven were killed by illumi-
mating gas early today.
The accidental loosening of rubber
gas tube was responsible for the death
Of Hyman Berkowitz, fruit dealer. his
wife, and five children. Not one of the
family was able to get out of bed, al
though the three youngest children
showed evidences of having tried in a
feeble manner to escape.
All retired about 10 o'clock last night
with the exception OF the father. who
did not return from celebration until
after l o'clock. The others were then
asleep.
Berkowitz, in crossing the sitting
room. evidently detached the gas tube
from the pipe and the gas escaped with
full force.
He left the door wide open to his room
on the third floor, where he slept with
his three sons, and the alcove where his
wife and her two daughters slept.
Shortly before o'clock this morning
J. V. Marvin, a constable and collector,
went to the house with his brother to
collect the months rent. He couldn't
get in and in talking with the family
next door learned that none of the Ber-
kOwitZ family had been seen. When an
entrance was forced the people were
nearly knocked over by the escaping
gas

man nature is shown in the elopement
OF Octave Poynter, aged sixty. with
Gertrude Cook, aged fifteen. pretty
school girl in Monroe county. The
couple were married at Jeffersonville,

county. After his departure the girl
was given her freedom.

Cook home. Later, when Gertrude was
