Pupiic Strike For Now School. | CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 17.—Backed by their parents, 500 of the 7% pupils of the Doan Sch6ol went on strike to- day demanding a new school bulfding. ‘The school board has refused to grant the demand. When Old Age Overtakes Us. Mra J Widmayer of Jackson, ‘Mich., says: ‘‘Although 69 years of age, and ‘naturally, because of my advanced age, in an enfeebled condi- /tion, I can truthfully say that Vinol has done wonders to keep me as ac- tive as I am. It is the best medi- cine to create strength that I ever saw. This spring I was very much fun down and worn out, but I took Vinol and soon felt stronger and able to work about the house. I can recommend Vinol as a very invigorat- ing tonic.” Should the system get run down— digestive organs weak—the blood thin and sluggish—take Vinol, which is a delicious combination of the medicinal, body-building properties of cods’ livers, with the useless grease elimi- mated and tonic iron added. We regard Vinol as one of the greatest body-builders and strength creators in the world for aged people. We wish every feeble old person in this vicinity would try Vinol on our agreement to return their money if it fails to give satisfaction. P. 8. If you have any skin trouble try Saxo Salve.

Wallace came from Providence, R.

Friends of the dead who had been identified protested. “The identifications don't go," de- clared the Coroner's physician, “be- cause they weren't made by relatives. ‘The Coroner won't stand for identifi- cations made by anybody else.” “But these people have no relatives in New York,” explained a police official. “I can’t help that,” said the man from the Coroner’s office. “They must be fdentified by relatives.” ‘The building at No. 741 is a five- story Grown-stone structure, with a five-and-ten cent store on the ground floor. On the other floors the Enkes couple had forty rooms which they rented mainly to theatrical people, models and clerks.

The stairs were cut |off within a few seconds, leaving the only exit by the fire-escapes in the rear. | The fire was so swift that although Engine Company No. 54 and Truck Company No. 4 are within a stone's throw of the building, when the fire- men arrived they could ‘not get into the hallways, Captain Daly of Truck No, ¢ had thirty-five-foot ladders run up, and ordered Firemen O'Connor and Moo- ney Into @ third-floor window. In the first room they entered they found Joseph Messer helpless from burns and smoke. They carried him to the street and sent him away in an ambulance. The spectacular feature of the fire was a rescue staged by Captain Thomas W.

His window was on a level with that oc- cupied by the firemen, but nine feet away. He seemed ready to jump, and Capt. Smith shouted: “Don't jump.
