S00 JOBLESS IN CANADIAN FIRE 9 Buildings in Main Section Destroyed h 1 |‘ KAPUSKASING, Ont., Jan, 22. —Nine buildings in the main busi- ness part of the city have been de- stroyed by a fire which continued to rage late this afternoon, imperil- ling the lives of many workers em- ployed in the section and throwing 500 out of work. Fear that sparks cause new conflagrations throughout the city created a state of terrorism in many workers’ homes. Firemen encountered difficulty in fighting the blaze owing to the cold weather. The temperature was 32 degrees below zero and many of the firemen were coated with ice. The business places already de- stroyed have thrown almost 500 workers out of employment, it was estimated late today. Tallentire to Speak at Lenin Memorials at Detroit and Flint | DETROIT, Jan. 22.

The children were Rose Alpern, 17 years old, and her brothers, Ralph, 15, and Harry, nine. Their father, Samuel Alpern, *!smelled gas when he awoke before he went to work in the morning. He tried for several minutes vainly to awaken his wife and children. Un- able to do so, he rushed out into the street, where neighbors, alarmed by his condition, brought help, Mrs. Alpern, his wife, was revived after being worked on for almost 15 © minutes, but an ambulance surgeon pronounced the children dead. There was no steam in the little apartment, and in order to keep the room in which the three children slept warm, Alpern had bought a |small gas heater. Every night it was turned on before the children retired. The pipe had been fixed in place by the superintendent of the tenements in which the Alperns lived. Yesterday, however, after an investigation, it was revealed that the pipe had been faultily connected, causing the death, as they slept, of the three children. Pershing Speaks in | Boston Tomorrow on Preparation for War BOSTON, Jan. 22.—George Per- shing, ex-soldier of the colonies and relative of “Blackjack” Pershing who led thousands to slaughter in the last imperialist war, will speak against imperialist war in the Gil- bert Hall, Tremont Temple, Tremont St., Boston, tomorrow at 8 p. m.
