MAN HEAD FIRST INTO TAR
six Others Hurt IN Blaze; CoekePea
Remains Until Tail
Takes Fire.

Kearny, N. J.-When fighting a
fire in the Kearny Hat company's
factory, No. Sheridan avenue, John
Durkin of Hose Company No. Q
tripped over a live wire and then fell
headforemost into a barrel of hot
tar.
Durkin's life was saved only be-
cause several of his companions were
near him. They promptly seized him
by the legs, and with great effort
hauled him out of his sticky prison.
Tar covered his mouth and was In
his nostrils. Quickly the other fire
men scraped the tar away from Dur
kin's mouth so he was able to get
his breath. Then they called sur
geon, who found the man had been
burned badly.
Six other firemen were injured, 100
men fed for their lives, and engine
companies were called out from
Arlington and Newark to fight the
fire, which caused a damage of $685.
00O For a time it threatened to
spread through the town, and be-
cause of that extra calls for engines
were sent out
Harry T. Boglin. general manager
Of the company, had just left his Of
fee and boarded train for his sum-
mer home in Asbury Park when the
Waterman saw the flames on the
fourth floor of the fve-story struc,
ture. One hundred men were work,
ing in the building. All of the wom-
en- employees had gone to their homes.
The Waterman turned in an alarm
and then ran into the building and
shouted a warning A stampede of
the men followed. In their haste to
get out many fell down stairways and
were bruised.
Several firemen were cut by falling
glass when a large window on the
fourth floor broke Huge pieces of
glass fell into barrels of hot tar,
which were in the rear yard of the
factory. causing the stuff to spatter
and strike three firemen, who were
burned by 1t.
Throughout the fire white Leg
horn rooster was perched on top of
the building, growing vigorously, in
spite OF heat and smoke. Bets were
being made as to whether or not
there would be roast chicken, when
the rooster, it's tail feathers singed,
flew to the ground and strutted away.
