RESCUE WOULD
 BE RESCUER IN
 BURNING HALL
(From Saturdays Daily)

While half q dozen young athletes were practicing for tine coming Moose boxing and wrestling matches in the Moose hall yesterday after
 noon, fire blazed up in pool of kerosene dripping from a large con verted oil burning stove, blocked the regular exit and while the occupants of the room were struggling to es- cape, caused the injury of Loyd
 Ireland, wrestler, and his dramatic rescue while overcome by smoke.
 It all happened in a short time and the excitement was over, except in the breasts of large crowd of curiosity seekers who muddlcd their way among the firemen and good naturedly got in the way. Ireland was taken to Mercy hospital and revived; his right arm, the flesh of which was 1acerated, was bound up and he was restored but not to that state of yigor necessary for his ap- , pearance in the ring next week. | Training for the bouts was ill ' progress at such a rate that until
 the fire had burst forth into the northeast corner Of the lodge room, none noticed it. It appeared then leo late to escape by way of the
 main door, Al. the athletes except Wild Bill Tanner left the premises by way of an autc-room door, which slammed shut and locked itself
 Tanner, diyested of much that goes to make a man preseutable on the public street, had stopped to gather up clothes, and being then confined, made his way to the street level by rear window and convenient soft
 spot ill the hard ground. Ireland, counting noses, missed Tanner and thinking him still in the burning building, returned to the hall. In the smoke which filled the room, he was able to see Tanner had escaped, but was confused as to the condition Of the exits. The ante-room door offered the only means of egress and it was locked. Ireland broke the glass in the door with his hand and thrust his arm through to turn the night-latch It was this action that resulted ill the laceration of the muscles of his arm. The pain from the wound and the smoke that had been filling his lungs, overcame the wrestler and he slumped to the floor. Clarence Dyer, who had followed Ireland back into the building, tried to drag the unconscious man out, but was himself repulsed by the smoke. The arrival of firemen with hose was followed by the rescue of Ire land, the members of the department going into the building and bringing the injured man out in most mat ter of fact way.
 A SloIl llIle ldtCI, II Was lcPoItCu by a number of wild-eyed persons that at least six others were lying gasping in the burning room. Lad ders were hoisted and windows broken by the department, but no others were found inside the build ing.
