7 YEAR CURSE ON ( IRISH TOWN SAID TO BE FULFILLED Natives Express Hope That Series of Tragedies Is Over. Bu United Prms , DRUMCOLLOGHER, Ireland, Oct. —The warning- of the coming visitation of a ‘‘seven years’ curse” upon this town, voiced by the local priest from the pulpit seven years ago, has been fulfilled. Inhabitants are hopeful that the theater fire, which occurred here recently with a loss of fifty-one lives, will be the last of the “curse” forever. The “curse” upon the town began seven years ago when a wealthy and eccentric farmer was waylaid on his way home at night. Shortly afterward another farmer was killed on the same spot. It was after these murders, which were practically the first disruptions in the quiet life of the little town, that the local priest announced trom he pulpit that the “seven-years’ curse” had laid hold of Drumcollogher. Weird Death List following the announcement, BI’O inhabitants were shot by the militia within a few moments of one another. A year later incendiaries added to the list of catastrophes. A party of young men entered the local courthouse with the intention of burning it. After sprinkling the entire place with gasoline, one of them accidentally dropped a lighted cigaret. A loud explosion followed and slammed the door, trapping three of the youths. Two lost their lives in the fire and the third died a few days later from burns. Since then many fatal accidents have occurred and three citizens have committed suicide during the past and a half. Recent Disaster The disastrous fire, which occurred recently, was in a wooden barn, the loft of which had been converted Into a moving picture theater. The Inquest following the fire revealed that the projection machine was placed in the middle of the floor, with the exposed films about ten feet away. An unprotected candle provided the only light. The fire started when a part df a reel came In contact with the flame of the candle. Scarcely any of the few families in town escaped without mourning tor some member as the result of the fire. A villager, who assisted with the burying of the victims of the holocaust, declared that the previous night he had dreamed of burying three of the townspeople. Three them. |TOI\IE IS TRIBUTE Huge Block Hauled Through Mountains for Italian Church. iv United PrenH ASSISI, Italy, Oct. 15.—A huge slock of stone from the mountain >f La Verna, where St. Francis reseived the stigmata, has been dona;ed by the city of Florence to Assisi.
