Three Persons Injured in Leaping
From the Third Story.
BIRMINGHAM, ALA, Oct. GA disas-
trous fire occurred about 4 o'clock this
morning on the corner of Second avenue
and Twenty-third street, short distance
from the heart Of the city, which resulted
in the burning of three buildings and the
serious injury Of three persons, one Of whom,
J. II. Weatherly, assistant business mana
ger of the Chronicle, is not expected TO
live.
One of the buildings, three-story brick
structure, was used on the two upper Il oors
as q boarding house, and the ground floor
was occupied by 3. V. Collins 81 Co., gro
GERS, and Kirnan's laundry.
LEAPING FOR LIFE
When the fire broke out about fifty ped
pie we're in the building. all of whom es-
capped, except Mr.. Weathsrly, his wife and
niece, Miss Lulu Weatherly who, being
cut off by the burning of tho stair way,
Jumped from the third story balcony. a
distance of 40 feet, sustaining serious, If
not fatal injuries.
The building and furniture were owned
by A. F. Edmunston, the former being
valued at $4,000 and the furniture at aoout
$1,000. There was insurance OF $4,000 on
the building but the furniture was unin-
sured.
LOSS OF THE GRocERs.
8. V.Collins 81 Co.. grocers estimate their
loss at a., 900, on which they had insurance
Of 81 500.
The estimated loss on the laundry is
about 81, 900.
How the fire originated is a matter of
conjecture
The residence Of Mrs Connor, which is
located but few feet west from the hotel,
was badly damaged by wall falling. The
damage to this house will probably exceed
81, 900 and is fully insured. The other
building destroyed was an old frame build
ing, unoccupied and valued at about 81 900

THE PROPOSED MONUMENT.

THE PROPOSED MONUMENT.
After the adoption of the resolutions, the
committee adjourned to give the citizens an
opportunity of discussing the erection of a
monument to the memory of the hon.
ored dead. Senator Z. p. McMurray
called the meeting to order and
made most eloquent eulogistic address on
the memory of Col. Daniel, at the con-
clusion of which acting Mayor Gerow was
invited to preside, and on ntaking his seat,
DIR. Thomas o. Summers was requested to
read the beautiful poem which was written
by him especially for this occasion. The
proposed monument is already assured,
81, 200 being now pledged. A committee
was appoineed TO formulate some plal for
memorial association.
1t has been sad day. The death Of
Edwin Martin of the Times Union was
early known to be inevitable, and G. A.
Deforest, the volunteer telegraph operator
from Detroit, was also on the border land.
DR.. G. T. Maxwell and Porcer have been in
constant attendance upon Mr.. Martin. He
is very low tonight and cannot possibly
live. There has been no action of the
kidneys for fifty hours. He has his senses
and can speak when addressed. His wife
and children are in Perry, Ga.
The rains have returned in full force and
add to the general gloom.
A meeting. with the object of forming a
press club, Is arranged by the seven remain
ing resident newspaper men OF jackson
vile, Messrs. Hawthorne. Flagg, Kettle,
Carter, Russell, Adams and Douglass.
There will be many memorials of this
Epidemic and OF many kinds. There are
little children who begin a new life in new
homes, and widows to whom the re-
membrance Of this year will be horror.

branch of the Union Pacific railway in Gun
nison county, Colorado, is a station called
Parlin. There is nothing of the place except
depot and postofice, and every train must
stop there five minutes, whether it Is a pas
senger or freight train. Not many feet dis
tant is the house of John Parlin. The house
is made of logs and Is OH the side Of hill
which stretches back and bitches itself to a
mountain that raises itself up until its snowy
summit touches the blue sky. The waters
como down the mountain side in a silvery
laughter and all day long naake music within

The acres Of foliage, the pastures green for
miles about belong to John Psrlin. The
herds of blooded cattle on the hillsiaes end in
tho valleys are John Parlin's. Near the sta
ton and in the middle of as limpid stream
of water as ever charmed fairy. is a dairy
in which are crooks and crooks and crooks OF
milk from John Parlin's Holstein herd.
Here in this secluded spot, remote from
the contentious Of this busy world, came the
railroad engineer running his line. John
Parlin took him in and gave him of his cheer
in a hospitable manner that would inspire an
American Walter Scott. The engineer went
away, and later on came other railroad men,
some Of them magnates, and John Parlin
furnished them food and rest and plenty of
milk. Then they told him they wanted 500
acres of his land, and asked him to name his
price.
1.-The old man in his generosity Of heart,
in his nature which partook of the freedom
of his home and its picturesque surroundings,
said to them: You can have l 500 acres il
you will put depot over there near the
dairy and make all your trains stop there

agreement was kept, and Is till this day.
And John ParIin sits in tho doorway of his
log house and sees the trains come in and
stop. And the passengers and the engineers
and the firemen and the conductors and the
brakemen leave their trains and so over to
