He miscalculated the distance and fell to the street. J. H. Sheeban, & contractor from New- burg, Pa., ocoupled a room om the fourth floor. He was asleep In his room unth he heard the screams of “fire”" in the hall. He partially dressed himself and groped his way through the smoke and darkness until he reached the stairway. There he was met by two elderly women, who Were try- Ing to find méans of escape for themselves. With his aseistance the twdb women were led to safety, and he himself escaped only finally to fall over in a dased condition in the corridor of the hotel. A pititul sight was that of Mrs. Piper, whose husband, Colonel Alexander M. Piper, was found burned to death near the elevator shaft. She mainged to escape and ‘was taken by friends to a private residence, but partly cldd. She was wmot informed of the death of her husband, as it was feared the shock would kill her. J Another sad incldent of the fire was the Angel,” who for fifteen years has done service in behalt of female prisomers in the Tombs and other city prisons. Mrs. Foster was the widow of John W. Fos and had lived for the last five years a the Park Avenue hotel. Her income, at one time considered large, was for the most part expended on the deserving poor. 8. 8.

The fire in the armory was being extinguished, and the danger was less. I remained in my room for over an hour and them hastened down stalrs. Soon afterward the flames were discovered in the hotel.

Hotel Damaged $30,000. The damage to the Park M\venue hotel, Manager Reed sald, would not exceed $30,- 000. The hotel is still open and is serv- ing meals and providing accommodation for its guests. Many of the guests of the ho- tel signed their gpames to a paper testify- ing that they leved Manager Reed did all he could to warn the guests of the pres- ence of the fire as quickly as possible and that his conduct ,wae herole. Major General C. F.

Counting the men as 1,000, the usiiforms were worth $30,000. The general stores, inéluding belts, haversdcks, canteens and all the thi that go to make up the soldier's outfit, come from ! United States government direct from Washington and charged against the allowance of $70,- 000 a year, which is this state’'s ehare of the yearly appropriation of congress for the maintenance of national guards with its camp equippage, which Is also dérived from the same source. The Seventy-first had a distinctive dress unmiform. It is thought about 450 were in the armory, and the loss on them was about $18,000. If all the dress uniforms were in the armory the loss on them is probably twice that amount.
