Driven From Sanitorium by Fire.
Fire in the sanitorium conducted by Miss Rumenapp, at Saranac Lake, forecd her patients to flee to the street. The temperature was fifteen degrees below zero and a high wind was blowing. The patients, all of whom were suffering from tuberculosis, were scantily clad. They were cared for in the reception hospital and in nearby cottages.
