Similar fights between German and

Excited by excessive quantities of wine

Heroic reseues by returned soldiers
were numerous.
When firemen arrived to battle with
the flames, soldiers were already at
work and were fighting desperately to
save the lives of the inmates. The sol
dicrs were handing baby after baby to
each other down the fire escapes. In
many instances soldiers were seen to
have as MANY as four children in their
atms at enc time.
Ii was only after orders of the fire
chief that soldiers stopped entering the
luilling. Sudden bursting forth of
flames famed to a fury by the stiff

Wrinkled faces, crowned with snow

shock caused by their sudden removal.
Many of the recovered bodies of chill

of the police officials many bodies were

SUGAR FAMINE PROBABLE.
Unless EccnOmy is Praciiccd There
Will be Shortage Soon.

Columbia, April 23-Unless there
is a big saving from the present con-
sumption, and unless every possible
spoonful is saved during the next
few weeks, there will be hardly sugar
for the canning season during the
summer and early fall.
This statement is made by the
Food Administration upon receipt OF
aGvice from Washington in effect
that after considering the inventory
OF sugar in this country and the
amount expected from Cuba, it is
shown that even with fair conserva-
ton until the preserving season there
will be barely enough to supply the
needs of the American people. To
avoid sugar famine, and at the same
time to provide for the canning OF
fruits and vegetables, which must be
preserved, it is of the utmost import

that conservation of sugar be rigid

must be practiced in every possible
way. The strictest economy and

essary SO that there will be no. actual
shortage during the canning season

in larger quantities, for canning and
preserving purposes. as q matter of
course; but it will be furnished for
such purposes only upon the signing
of certificate, the form of which
has not yet been determined upon by

that there may be a supply available
