Divorkowitz lives with his family on the second floor, and Joseph Lev- enthal and his family on the third. ‘The fire started in the grocery and had filled the house with smoke and burst from the windows before any one saw it. Cries of “Fire!” aroused Divorkowitz, who called to his wife and children to hurry to the roof of the extension, which could be reached | from one of the windows. He got the two boys out that way and car-) ried them to the street. MOTHER AND GIRLS CARRIED) DOWN LADDER. His wife, Sarah, forty-five years old, and Gussie, sixteen, and Lillian, eight, who were in another room, found they could not get through thoir apartment to the roof on ac- count of the smoke, Policeman Charles S. Matthews of the Park- Ville station was two blocks away when he saw the glare and heard Mrs. Divorkowitz scream, When wo reached the house she was poised in @ window on the Thirteenth avenue side with Lillian in her arms. Matthews remembered some paint- ors had been working on a house a few doors away, and found a ladder there.

Leventhal and his family were en- tirely cut off from the stairs in the third-story flat when Williamson ar- rived and spied them in windows. The policeman went into the build- ing next door, and by climbing out of @ window and making a flying leap managed to reach the roof of tho ex- tension, several feet below the Lev- enthal windows. He shouted up to the father to drop the children, one at a time. CAUGHT FIVE OF THEM, ONLY| HIMSELF HURT, ‘This Leventhal did, First he held) three-year-old Minnie for a moment and then let her go.
