SLUMBER WHILE FLAMES RACE Dr. Henry Fine and Party of Autoists Arouse a Couple Asleep in Burning Home IFORM A HOSE BRIGADE Midnight Blaze Extinguished by Prompt Work of the Volunteer Fire Fighters OAKLAND, April 15.—The timely ar- rival of Dr. Henry Fine and a party of automobilists, who formed themselves into a brigade of fire fighters, probabiy saved the lives of aged John Parkinson and his young daughter, who were sound- 1y asleep in their burning home last night at the southeast cormer of Tenth and Madison streets. It was with the greatest difficulty that Dr. Fine and his/ volunteer assistants could arouse the Parkinsons, and they did it only by smashing a win- dow In thg rear of the house. Dr. Fine had been visiting a patient on Eighth street, and was returning to his home at 1020 Jackson street shortly after midnight. As he reached Tenth and Mad- ison streets he was attracted by the flames leaping up the side of the Parkin- son home. He rang t8e doorbell violently, and just then a party of automobilists! consisting of three men and two women, turned the corner. The men in the auto”ran to the physi- cian’s assistance, and two of them played on the flames with a garden hose while the others continued their task of trying to awaken the sleepers. Finally the win- dow s smashed and Parkinson was aroused. He awoke his daughter, but by that time the blaze had been extinguished | and’ 1t .was not found necessary to sum- | mon the fire department < Parkinson and his daughter were great- Iy excited and could give no idea of the origin of the fire, but a wooden ash barrel against the rear of the house told plainly the story of the midnight blaze. ‘Who composed the party in the automo- | bile is not known, as they drove away as soon as they saw that the danger was over and did not give their names.
