Wiconisco Calls on Nearby

For Aid
Wiconisco, Pa., Nov. 8.-—A destruc
tive blaze, startei". It is believed by
two small children playing with fire,
■swept a row of dwellings '.'lis morn
ing and was not checked until (Ire
fighters were hurried from Lykons,
Williamstown and other places.
The fire was discovered at 10.15
o'clock in the home of John Foster,
in Baptist street, where Mrs Koster
had left her two children, aged three
and five, to play while she went on
an errand. It Is supposed that the
youngsters fell to playing with a
fire In the kitchen stove, and scatter
ed hot coals. The building was quick
ly a sheet o' flames, being enveloped
so suddenly that the children were
rescued with difficulty.
Before the local fire company could
get in action, the fire, driven by a
brisk mountain wind, stretched out
to a row of nine houses nearby and
within a few moments destroying two
and getting a firm hold o.i the others.
The Foster children. Ha old and
Robert, had a narrow escape from
being burned to death. Their sister,
Violet, was also out of the hcuse tem
porarily and it was she who discov
ered the blaze, reaching the house
just as the little ones rushed out
ahead of the tlames. Neighbors did
everything possible to save the house
but as there is no regularly organ
ized firefighting appliance in this vil
lage, little LOU d be done. ':ue force
from the Susquehanna Conl Com
pany, trained fighters, saved the
whole town, it is believed, from de
struction.
Homes that were attacked by the
flames but not greatly damaged be
longed to Charles Harman, John W.
Rowe, Edward Weels. Mrs. Ida Sny
der, Georgo Parset. The Foster house
is owned by Mrs. Hatdorf whose loss
is estimr.ied at $1,200, with rome in
