overcome by smoke and slightly burned.
and four fremen were injured when an
awning fell while they were fighting the
flames.
The fire started in the home of Jacob
Richter. 1925 South street, and spread so
rapidly that before fremen arrived in re-
sponse to an alarm turned in by Weber,
every house on that side of the street,
from 1921 to 1881 South street, was filled
with smoke.
Weber smashed the front door of 1925
South street, occupied as a dry goods
store by Richter, ran UP to the first floor
and aroused the merchant and his wife
The two were so dazed by the smoke that
1t was all they could do to follow Weber 3
order. The bluecoat. carrying their two
children, Ida, 2 months old, and Ethel. .
years old, led them to a rear window in
the second floor and assisted them into
the yard.
Weber then returned to the house and
found Annie and Philip Sinchuk in the
third floor overcome by smoke. He car
ried them TO a second-story front window
and when dragging them over the cornice
to 1927 South street he noticed that this
dwelling also was filling with smoke In
the house he found Jacob Jacobs, his wife
and seven children. After getting all to
the street he went to 1923 South street and
assisted to safety Theodore Kuhlnall. 81
years old, and his housekeeper, Mrs. Cath
arine Dennis, 60 years old
Occupants of 1921, 1929 and 1881 were
aroused by other policemen and flremen
and hurried into the street in their night
clothing. Firemen found 1925 blazing
f1ercely. Three members of engine COM
pany No H. from 18th and South streets,
and William Butcher. of 1928 South street,
of the insurance patrol, were in front of
the house under heavy galvanized iron
awning when 1t collapsed, pinning them
to the sidewalk.
Other f1remen lifted the awning after a
hard struggle, Butcher was taken to
Howard Hospital, where physicians found
he had fractured leg The other fire.
