OWN HOME ON FIRE
Fireman Answers Alarm to Figh
Blaze In His Domicile

Answering a fire alarm late yester-
day afternoon, Fire Captain William J.
Phillips discovered it was his own home,
1922 Morris street, that was ablaze.
The alarm was sent in by Mrs. A.
Dowlin, 1920 Morris street, who saw
smoke issuing from the windows of
the second floor of the house. Her
husband, who has been sick for several
weeks with ptomaine poisoning, was
taken by her to the home of neighbors.
Within a few minutes after the
alarm was sent in fire engines from
the station at Fifteenth street and Sny-
der avenue were on the scene. Acting
Sergeant Young, of the Fifteenth street
and Snyder avenue station house, know
ing the occupants of the house next
door, 1913 Morris street, were i'll with
influenza, carried the three patients to
1926 Morris street.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from an overheated stove. AS nobody
was in the house at the time, Mrs.
Louise Phillips being in West Philadel-
phia on a visit, the flames made rapid
headway before being discovered. The
first and second floors were destroyed.
The damage is estimated at $4,000.

ESCAPES TURKS HAREM
Young Girl Wed Here After Many
Hardships

After having been forced to remain
a member of q Turks harem for four
years, Elizabeth Koumrian, young Ar
menian girl, escaped and was married
here Monday to an Armenian American.
The marriage took place at Barrick
Hall, 261 South Sixtieth street, with
the Rev. DR.. Haig Y. Yardumian, uncle
of the bridegroom, officiating. The
bridegroom is Robert Kellejian, of 724
South Sixtieth street.
The bride is only seventeen years old.
When twelve she was captured by a
Turk during massacres in the vicinity
of Yozgat, where she lived. Her captor
tied her to his saddle and, despite her
youth, took her home and made her q
member of his harem. The girl refused
to renounce her Christian faith and
finally, after cruel tortures, escaped the
moslem's house and fed to CONSTANT
rople, where she met brother of the
bridegroom. After several months cor
respondence the girl came to America a
month ago with her aunt.

That is the way Mrs. r. II. Wilbur

his widow. She inclosed a check to-

policeman's family.
In the same mail came a letter from
little Edgar H. Rider, of 273O North
Fifteenth street, inclosing a 81 bill.
II am crippled and I was a great
friend of Mr.. Herman" wrote the child,
so I send the 81 for his family"
Hundreds of letters and gifts have
been sent Mrs. Herman and her chill
dren through Mayor Moore since he dis
played such interest in the case. Judge
Norris s. Barratt, who gave $50 to-
ward the fund, wrote: IT met Herman
several times at Emergency Aid meet

and efficient and seemed desirous as a
public official to do all in his power to
