Narrow Escape of a School 'House full
of Children from Deatrace ton.
A stove in the sonth-west room on the third
floor of the Third Ward (School blame, Alio
gheny, was accidentally overturned at about
three o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, and set
the floor on tire. For a time it was feared
that the entire building would be destroyed,
but through the exertions of Prof. Lucky,
Superintendent, assisted by Several female
teachers, and some of the larger petit's, the
flames were extinguished before much dam
age was done, although a large hole seas burn
ed through the door.
At the time the fire broko , out there were
nearly nine hundred children In the building,
and the-Wildest conatetriation prevailed. The
alarm spread through the building in an in
stant, and a general rush was made for,the
Stairways. In some of the rooms the teacers
succeeded in locking the doors, and thus'pre
vented the pupils from rescuing the stair
ways. in others, however, Chia could 110t_be
done, and the children on the lower floor,
where the primary schools are located, were
crowded and Jostled byjhose escaping from
the upper Roofs. The stairways were com
pletely blocked up, soil for a time the most
tearful consequences were anticipated. A
number of workmen, engaged in paving Shan
papist street, rushed into the building, and
succeeded in rescuing the smaller children,
main clearing the stairways. In some of the
rooms In which the doors had been secured,
a rush was made for the windows, but fortu
nately the panfe-stricken Children were pre
vented from jumping oat, and were thus sav
ed from instant death: During the first rush,
several of the children were injured, but
none dangerously. Ono little girl bad he • face
lacerated severely, another bad her ("boulder
dislocated, and a third, named Wilkinson, bad
the banes of one hand severely crushed, "by
being trampled upon. Painful. as these acct.
dents wore, however, we can consider them
only as good fortune, when we reflect on the
fearful peril to which thd great crowd of chil
dren were subjected, and which they escaped.
