Three Leap From Fifth
Floor to Ground.

Boston, Dec. 4.-Twenty-five men
were killed in a fire which swept
through the upper floors of the Ar
cadia hotel, a lodging house in the
South End. Many others are missing.
Nearly all the bodies were terribly
burned and mutilated, making identi-
fication impossible.
Caught in the crowded hunks on
the top floor of the five-story brick
building and in the small rooms on
the fourth floor, they were helpless.
When they were aroused the stair
ways were in flames and there was a
mad rush for the fire escapes at the
rear. Practically none of the men OBJ
tanned their clothing.
Thirty Taken From Roof.
Many were rescued by the firemen
and police. Some escaped by walking
a shaky plank stretched to an adjoin-
ing building or jumping across five
foot alley to nearby roofs.
More than so naked men were taken
to the nearest police station. When
the firemen arrived 80 of these stood
silhouetted against the burning
flames of the roof. Most of them
were saved by the use of the sealing
ladders.
The windows on the fourth and
fifth floors and the fire escapes and
the roof showed mass of struggling
humanity. Despite shouts of assurance
from below, three men jumped from
the roof Two were instantly killed.
The third. who had wrapped a mat
tress about himself, escaped with a
few bruises.

AS Spring approaches and the home

proper that the citizen should investi-

before going to the city.
With this point it view it should be
remembered that the A. G. Fuller &

stock and of the best that the market
affords. Most goods are purchased
direct from factories and therefore
the prices are right.
Their lines of goods are the same
as are found in the best stores in all

others embrace:
