The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-08-16

Two boys, Elwood Ives and
John Cow, were burned to
death and two brothers, Neal
and Mckinley Ives, sons Of
William Ives, badly burned in a
fire that consumed the latter's
ice cream parlors and bowling
alley at Beachlake, early We'd
nesday morning.
The boys slept on the second
floor of the bowling alley,
which is located on the main
road leading to Beachlake and
near the Duneden boarding
house. They had retired after
a busy day and nights work,
business being pretty brisk
Tuesday night in the ice cream
parlors, as a dance was conduct
ed there that evening. The
bowling alley building is about
I25 feet long and the sleeping
apartments of the boys were at
the extreme rear on the second
floor. Fire broke out at $3.50
Wednesday morning near
where the boys slept. The
alarm of fire was given and
hundreds of summer guests
who are stopping at that popu-
lar resort answered to the call
and offered their assistance.
When it was learned that
there were three sons of Mr..
Ives and a city boarder sleeping
in the building, people became
almost frantic and desperate
effort was made to rescue them
if possible. Work was COM
menced at once in battering
down the front door. AS the
door fell in, the head of Elwood
Ives, 17-year-old son of Mr.
Ives, fell out. But alas ! he was
dead. He had been suffocated
by the smoke. Gentle hands
removed his remains from the
burning building. His skull
and part of the trunk were al
of the body that was intact. Il
was too late, his soul had de-
parted, leaving behind his grief
stricken parents, two brother:
and many synpathizing ant
sorrowing friends.
Elwood endeavored to max,
his escape and had come the en-
tire length of the building, de
scended the stairs and ther
tried the front door, but it wa
| locked. The finding of hi
body cast a gloom over tn,
community.
The remains of John Cow, O
New York City, aged 8 years
: were found after a diligen
! search in the debris Wednes
day morning. 1t was first hop
ed that he had escaped but hi
! charred bones told a differen
+ story. From the position the
laid it was evident that he ha
C not moved from the cot but ha
s been suffocated by the smoke
A message was sent to NeN
e York City Wednesday morn
g ing telling the father of hi
g misfortune. Grief-stricken, h
d came on Thursday to care fo

mer being quite seriously


burned.
Neal and Mckinley Ives,
younger sons of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Ives, barely escaped
with their lives, which they did
by jumping out of the second
story window. They were both
badly burned and are also suf-
fering from bruises and shock.
There is no evidence as to
how the building caught fire.
A dance was held at the place
Tuesday night and it is possible
that a lighted cigarette or ci-
gar butt thrown down by some
careless and thoughtless person
started the confagration.
Another theory is that the
place might have caught fire
from electric wires, as the place
is lighted by electricity, a gaso-
line engine furnishing power
for the generator. Had there
been a storage battery this
might have been more prob
able, but as there was none this
theory Office is again blasted.
Beachlake has become a pop
ular summer resort, there be-
ing at present over 800 guests
boarding at the different
houses. In view of the fact
that entertainment must be
furnished, Mr.. Ives erected a
four ten pin bowling alley, with
ice cream parlors attached.
The boys, it appears, chose to
sleep over the alley rather than
in their own home during the
summer, it being cooler, they
claimed, which accounted for
them occupying apartments in
that building.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ives have the
profound sympathy of their
many Wayne county friends in
their bereavement.
Neal Ives, who was badly burned
internally, died as the result of hi.
burns Wednesday evening at
o'clock. He suffered untold agon!
as his back, arms and hands wer,
severely and deeply burned. He in
hailed the deadly fumes of the fire
which caused his death. Despite tn
fact of being burned so badly, Nea
walked from his home to his grand
mothers, Mrs. John Neal, a distanc
of about a town block, Wednesda
; morning, where he died at 7 o'clocl
that night. Mrs. Neal cared for tn
boy and practically raised him. From
: the time Neal entered the house un
til after he had passed away, Mrs
; Neal did not speak a word and paI
alysis was feared, but she regaine
: her speech Thursday morning and
: apparently well today, except to b
5 suffering from the shock.

GRANDMOTHERS
USED SAGE TEA
To Darken the Hair and Re-
store Gray and Faded Hair
to Its Natural Color,

1t is easier to preserve .ne color of
the hair than to restore it, although it
is possible to do both. Our grand
mothers understood the secret. They
made "sage tea," and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact. Our mothers have gray
hairs before they are fifty, but they are
beginning to appreciate the wisdom of
our grandmothers in using Sage tea"
for their hair and are fast following suit.
The present generation has the advan-
tage of the past in that it can get a
ready to-use preparation called Wycth's s
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy AS q
scalp tonic and color rcstorer this prep
aration is vastly superior to the ordinary
"sage tea made by our grandmothers.
The growth and beauty of the hair
depends on healthy condition of the
scalp. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy quickly kills the dandruf germs
which rob the hair of its life, color and
lustre, makes the scalp clean and
healthy, gives the hair strength, color
and beauty, and makes it grow.
Get a so cent bottle from your druggist
today. He will give your money back
il you are not satisfied after fair trial.
