ny ALLIE ALTA STARR IN ltr l0tn year,
Upon thy bosom, raging wave,
think of Him who hath the power
This fragile ship to sink or save,
In this most trying hour.
And if ! now should perish,
And sink beneath the wave,
God only takes unto Himself
The life that first He gave.
Then weep not friends, if | should go,
And ne'er should see you more;
go to meet my Saviour
Upon the other shore.
And there, with crown of glory
And garments shining white,
I'll stand before my Saviour
Where all is love and light.
And in that beauteous city
With streets of purest gold,
Shall the sweet and wOndrous story
OF Jesus love be told.
Then, when We die and meet me,
Where sorrow cannot be,
Wen dwell together in the land
OF blest eternity

RAGING FLAMES
Destroy a Theate + and a Church at Buffalo
One Man Kiiled-opera Cos
tunes Burned.

BUFFALO, March 25. This evening, as an
attache of Music Hall vas lighting the gas
above the stage, drop fly took fire from
defective burner. In an instant the whole
stage was in flames, and six minutes later
the entire building was burning. The McCaul
Opera Company were dressing preparatory
to the production of "Folka," and had
barely time to escape, some only
partially dressed. The company lose
the entire wardrobes for the operas of
"Folka," ''The Little Duke" and The
Queens Lace Handkerchief" and the com
pany had most of their trunks brought to
the building, and these were consumed also.
Very few persons had arrived to witness the
performance, and all escaped without in
jury.
An hour later the st. Louis Roman Cath
olio Church, at the rear of Music Hall,
took fire, and il was coon evident that that
magnificent ediice was doomed. The street
between Music Hail and the church was
very narrow, rendering il impossible for the
Fire Department TO do effective work.
George Smith and Joseph Green ascended
ladders in front OF the church for the pur-
pose of assisting the firemen in directing the
work. The building burned rapidly and the
fremen and Smith hastily left the roof,
which they had reached, but
for some reason Green remained
ana frantically rushed to the cupola,
climbing it in full view of thousands of
spectators. He clambered to the lightndug-
rod, but returned and rushed to the body of
the roof, which was now burning fiercely.
He rushed to the corner OF the building, and
needless of the cries of the firemen, who had
iarpaulin stretched for him TO Jump into,
made for the tower, and from il hung by his
hands for fully ten minutes. an attempt
was made to reach him with a ladder, but it
was unsuccessful, owing 10 the network Of
telegraph wires surrounding the building.
At this time the entire front of the church
was enveloped In flames. When the smoke
cleared away he wss seen still clipging to
the edge of the roof. Then he lunged for
ward, let 60 his hold and fell. He struck on
his head and was instantly killed.
At o'clock the tower of the Music Hall
fell in, and few minutes after the front
walls fell into the street. The south wall
which was unusually strongly built, as il
was within ten feet of q large private dwell
ing, remains intact. The fire was finally
confined to the Music Hall and
the church. The Music Hall
was completed in 1888. having been
about q year in the course of construction.
st. Louis Church was the oldest Roman
Catholic Church in the city. Music Hall
will be remembered as the place of holding
