NEWS OF THE SOUTH SIDE
James Richardson, Who Left Here
Two Years Ago, Is Dead.
WAS KILLED ON THE RAILROAD
His Name Was Famillurto Almost 1. very
Person on the South Side-Third Anni
versary of tho Young Woman's
Christian Association.
James Richardson, who, to almost
every person of the lower end of the
South Side, was known us Monis
Rldgo, met his death in an untimely
manner on Dec. 27 last, by being run
down and killed on the railroad at a
small town In the central part of Ohio.
It is about two years ago since ho left
these parts, and nothing was heard of
him during thut time until word was
received by hisrother, Thomas Rich
ardson, of Plttston avenue, a few weeks
ago, that a man having letters In his
pocket addressed to James Richmond
and postmarked Scranton, was killed
while trackwalklng.
Mr. Richardson sent on a description
of his brother and also gave particulars
about certain peculiar tattoo marks
and the scar of a large wound which he
bore upon his body. The remains were
exhumed and it was found that the
marks were upon the body. The news
was sont back and that convinced Mr.
Richardson that the dead man wus his
brother. Ho received the sad intelli
gence a few days ago. The dead man
was well known and, although he was
of a gruff manner, he possessed a kind
and well-disposed manner. He was a
son-in-law of Patrick Corcoran, of
Cedar avenue.
The Weary Willies Fled.
The tool houso along the narrow
gauge track in the rear of the Barber
Asphalt plant, on South Washington
avenue, was burned down last night.
It is called a tool house, but In reality
It Is only a shainty for tho convenience
of the old men, who work at the sand
pit. It was owned by the Lackawanna
Iron and Steel company.
There was a large cast Iron stove In
side thnt would hold a ton of conl. Two
tramps intended to camp there Jast
night and they set tho lire ablazing;
then both went to sleep and, It Is be
lieved, that both must have been almost
smothered; because the shanty caught
fire and the Humes were creeping upon
the roof when they were Been to emerge
from its walls. They did not wait to
catch their breath, but scuddled across
the snow, fearing lest they might be
held responsible for the destruction of
the shanty. Tho loss amounts to about
$75.

THOSE FROZEN HYDRANTS.
Mayor Conncll Makes Some Suggestions
to a District Chief.
District Fire Chief Surdam yesterday
conferred with Mayor Connell relative
to the Immediate attention to frozon
fire hydrants in various sections of the
city. Yesterday's Tribune indicated the
useless state of many hydrants and the
possible serious consequences of a fire.
It Is the opinion of the fire olllclnls
that It Is expedient to steam out only
such hydrants as ure known to be
frozen. It Is claimed that If a hydrant
n good condition Is opened In severe
weather It will freeze within a few
hours after being closed.

An Awful Casualty ut Priccburg at an
I'curly Hour Vest Ji Juy Morning Moth
er and Daughter Burned I p in the
Flames-Six. f amilies Homeless,
Blackened and burned out of all
semblance to human forms, the re
maining parts of the bodies of Mrs. Jo
seph Choperinskl and her 7-year-old
daughter, Mary, were uncovered from
the ruins of the lire which broke out at
2 o'clock yesterday morning on the east
Hide of Main street in the northern por
tion of Priceljurg.
The ghastly details of the awful acci
dent are terrible to relate. Two houses,
owned by Anthony JCelenskl, were Hitu-
uated on the light hand side of the
road, a short distance below Olyphant.
P.ith were double buildings und stood
only a few feet apart. John Jelozlnskl
occupied half of one as a hotel and tho
other part was occupied -by Joseph
Choperinskl, his wife and four children,
Annie, 15 years, Fanny 13, Mary 7, and
Eva, 3 years old. It was In their home
that the fire originated. Choperinskl
was the first to be awakened by tho
stifling smoke and the hot flames; the
building was then fairly enveloped by
fire. He told his wife to take care or
two of tho children and he would get
the other two out safely.
Husband and wife got as far ns a
window and determined to Jump with
the younger children and let the older
two follow. Tho smoke and heat al
most then overcome them. Choperin
skl Jumped to the ground, a distance of
fourteen feet, und severely Injured his
knee by falling on the Icy ground. Ills
hands were very painfully burned. Sirs.
Chopeiiiiski threw her 3-yeur-old child,
Eva, from the window to her husband
below, and then rushed back to the bed
room for Mary, the 7-year-old girl. In
the meantime the other two girls, mibi
and Fanny, Jumped from the window
In their night clothes and the feet of
both soon got frost bltteen. Their ten
der bodies were also painfully scorched
oy me mounting llames.
Heroic Mother's Dcutli.
Mis. Choperinskl reached the cot
where her little one laid and snatched
her up quickly. She tried to return to
the window and Jump with her child
to safety; but the excessive heat de
prived her of her strength and she sank
to the floor Willi her daughter In her
arms. It would tit that moment hnvo
been suicide to attempt to rescue them,
because the flames burst out of win
dows and doors, it was four hours
later when the embers hud suflleicntlv
cooled to allow nn attempt at recover
ing tlio bodies.
There was nothing left of the rt 'mains
but the headless and limbless trunks,
and both charred and crisped. Dr. J.
. Hlllielmer, George Snyder, T. CI.
Miller, Albert Kleve, Andrew Miller
and John Krufiinnk tenderly attended
to the task of getting the bodies out,
which were then enclosed in temporary
Wooden boxes and conveyed to George
Sosnowski's hotel.
A kind neighbor, John Krueger, took
cure of Choperinskl nnd the remainder
ot his family. The unhappy father was
frantic at his terrible misfortune and
waved ruefully his bandaged hands
when a Tribune reporter called at the
house. Fanny, the l:!-old-glii, w is
asleep In a trundle lied and her feet
were badly fruzen and her head ban
daged on account of the burns she suf
fered. Annie, the eldest one, wns In a
highly nervous condition, but she wns
not suffering much from burns; her
feet were slightly frozen. She was
nursing Eva, her 3-year-old sister.
Cuuseof l ire I'nkiiowii.
Choperinskl was not troubled with
many questions concerning the origin
of the lire. His countenance bore a
dumb appeal to be let alone nnd his
wish wan respected. Hut he told some
of his friends that he had no theory
as to the' origin of the lire. He Is sexton
of the Polish Catholic church, of Piice-
burg, and was regarded as un upright
citizen. His wife wns 3S years of age.
There wits mi lack of assistance from
kind neighbors, who furnished clothing
and all other necessary comforts.
Those who arrived first nt the scene
of the fire state- that the Humes burst
forth Hist from the rear of the build
ing, which would Indicate that an over
heaed stove caused It or, perhaps, It
wus due to the explosion of a lump.
The watchman nt Jermyn'n mine was
notilled of the fire and he sounded the
alarm, nnd in response the Priccburg
Fire company responded. The nearest
hydrant was frozen und ihof wnter
had to be poured upon it before a
stream was got to the burning building.
A few minutes before the lire company
reached the Bcene the flames communi
cated to the other double building nnd
no efforts of tho llremen could save It
from destruction. As soon ns the water
soaked to the ground It became frozen
and cuused a sheet of Ice to surround
the scene of the fire. This made the
work of the firemen extremely dilllcult.
Very Little Wus Saved.
Four families lived In the Becond
house that caught lire, making a total
of six who were rendered homeless,
Very little of the furniture was saved,
ns It was In the dead of night and the
people had not much more time than
to nress and escape with their lives, Tho
second building wns occupied by the
families of John Yonkofskl, Andrew
Kollck, Louis Veshlnskl and Michael
Yungluskl. The loss In the aggregate
amounts to several thousand dollars
nnd the buildings and effects were but
partially Insured. Only the sldewalls
of the second building remain.
Coroner J. A. Kiiley had not, late last
night, been ofllclally notified of the
deaths of Mrs. Choperinskl nnd her

JUDGE WILL MEET UUt.
An Answer to the C.hiillcngo of Jack Car
Carroll, of Itrooklyn.
Tribune readers can recollect thnt a
few days ago a short article appeared
In this paper embodying a challenge
to any pugilist In this city of tho weight
of 138 to 144 pounds. A boxer named
Jack Carroll, of Urooklyn, N. Y called
at this olllce nnd was responsible for
that announcement.
Now James Judge, of the South Side,
comes forward and Btates that he will
light Mr. Carrtfll nt the weights men
tiotied, providing the latter can prove
that the match will be a bona fide one
and for a purse that will be worth fight
ing for. In other words Mr. Judge Is
ready nny time Mr. Carroll comes for
ward with the money.
Mr. Judge's exploits In the ring are
too fresh to need calling the public's
attention to his ability as a lighter.
