HEAVY LOSS To
ALL HUMANITY
Historic Hospital of Santo Spirito In
Rome Burned this Morning With
Heavy Loss of Life

Rome, May 1S.-(By the Associated
Press).-A disastrous fire swept the
historic hospital of Santo Spirito, one
of the most picturesque and ancient
charitable institutions in Rome today.
Sixteen bodies had been recovered
from the burning ruins at 7:30 a. m.
The institution accommodates nearly
5000 patients and includes a hospital,
lunatic asylum, founding home and
refuge for the aged and infirm.
The flames originated at midnight
in the laundry. They were insignifi-
cant at first but spread rapidly to
the neighboring wards, each contain
ing thirty chronic or infirm' patients,
who became panic stricken. Wooden
beams collapsed, burying twenty
chronic patients. Rescuers rushed
through fire and smoke and brought
out twelve, but all were dead from
suffocation.
Santo Spirito was founded in the
twelfth century by Pope Innocent, III.

diamond is in fine shape. A fine dem

should be seen in both these games.
Ocala will likely pitch Ulrich this aft

Hartman on its pitching staff these
days and it is likely that he will open
the series with King as tosser for the
