HORRIBLE NEWS.
The Beautiful Tennessee Insane
Asylum In Ruins.
Six of the Unfortunate Inmates Gre
mated Alive And Twenty-Five
Others Roaming at Large.

This morning, says the American
the beautiful insane asylum, situate
seven miles from the city on The
MurfreesbOro pike, is almost mass
Of ruins; beneath it are the charreo
bodies of half dozen OF the un'
fortunate inmates; in the OuthOuses
near by are huddled the poor de
mented creatures who found an
asylum in the grand old structure
now laid low; and on the lawn the
long, parched trees, denuded o.
branch and foliage, stand, the spec
trail trunks with gaunt outstretched
arms marking the spot but where
yesterday stood the massive building
alive with human beings, the oh
served of all who passed that way,
and one of the most beautiful and at
tractive spots in lovely Middle Ten
nessee.
The news was received here this
morning by telephone and much in
terest was manifested on the streets
over the report The fire was dis
covered about II O'Clock last night
oy the Waterman at theinstituti0n.
The flames were seen breaking out OF
the west or male wing of the build
ing. How it caught seems to be a
mystery, but it reached from the
ground through the second and third
stories and cut off the few rooms
that were behind it. There Were
twenty-eight men in the wing
when it caught and six of them
persisted. They ale all white
and as follows: j. S. Johns, Ruth
erford J. Burt Dexter, Wilson ;
Blue Preston, Cannon; John Kelly,
Wayne; W. H. Beasley, Hickman ;
B. f. HolIowell, Davidson.
When the fire broke out it filled the
inmates with terror and twenty-five
or thirty of them escaped from thu
guards in their frenzy and are roam
ing about the country at large. 1t
was reported about 8 o'clock this
morning that one of the female in
mates had been drowned III the lake
on the lawn. Her name is not
given by the American.
The State militia was ordered out
at O'clock this morning to guard
the inmates of the burned building,
The total loss in dollars is put down
at $2j, 900, fully covered by insurance,
The building was constructed in 1915,
The original appropriation was. $751;
900, which has since been added to.
DR.. Jno. II. Calender was the pres.
ent superintendent aud there Were
confined in the building 400 patients,
ninety of whom are negroes.

TRAGEDY OF CALVARY.
Or. Burkhead Treats The Familiar Sub
ject In New Way.

DR.. Burk head g sermon at the Pres
byterian church last night caused all
who heard it to marvel at its power,
originality and simplicity. He is a
remarkable preacher. He treated the
tragedy of Cavalry in a way, we dare
say, that was revelation to many
who were fortunate enough to hear
this discoursr. He showed how very
near a sinner may come to Christ and
yet how surely be lost. God, he said,
never did save man because he was
good, nor did He ever condemn one
because he was bad F.; no one is good
and every one is bad. Accordingly
Gods plan Of saving sinners i
seen as applied to the penitent male
factor-simply to confess him before
men. Vile as he confessed himself
to be, this malefactor, by adopting
Gods plan of saving sinners, within
the last two minutes, possibly, of his
Wretched life, was rewarded by the
Savior thus: "This day shalt thou
ne with me in paradise" That thief
was just as much a thief after the
Savior had said this to him as he was
before, only that he was pardOned
thief. He now wears crown, il
there aren't no stars in it. But the
other malefactor, what of him ?
lie was a railer. There are many
kinds of raier3. One does not have
to curse and swear and blaspheme his
Lord to become railer, and thereby
receive the railer's punishment-eter
nal death. O, no! Just sit still Do
nothing fold your hands and slide
by your own momentum right on
down to hell. That is one kind OF
raj lery. Another is when you begin
thus to reason with yourself: Is not
the Bible myth, after all Christ
merely man the Christian religion
farce christian people a parcel of
canting hypocrits? etc etc.
Gods plan Of saving sinners is not
secIusion in your closets. 1t is to be
constantly Confessing him before
men. The minister's remarks APP
piled with equal pertinence to luke
warm church members, who in play
ing the role of the railer, are held
more strictly accountable than are
those who make no pretensiOns to
Christianity.
DIR. Burkhead depressed a little to
throw side light upon family gov
eminent as it now exists in many
homes. 1t is a sad common
tary that things have so changed
within fifty years that parental au
thOrity, once an undisputed law, has
been completely usurped by the fam
lily baby. He's the domestic despo'
whose whims are law. Sad for th,t
family and for society generally that
such a thing should be.
Citizens will be well repaid by at
tending these services and listening
to such mastery sermons as that Of
last evening.

THE ANNEXATION QUESTION.
The Contest Grows Warmer With Skir-
mishing all Along the Line.

The fight on the annexation ques-
ton grows warmer and every day
| lessons the chances of the passage Of
the bill. Yesterday was set a. the
lay for final hearing of both sides
by the Legislative committee, and
both sides were represented in full
force. Judge Tyler. Gen. Quarles
IS attorney, r. ID. Mo3eley and Mr..
Gardner of South Clarksvil e, We're
Fading the opposition forces, white
Mayor Smith, r. II. Burney, b f.
Gill, II. G. Merritt, Clay Dean, M
Savage, DIR. Marable, Dr. Carney
and some ten or twelve others ap-
pointed by the Board of Trade were
there in the interest of annexation.
Representative Johnson succeeded in
arranging for meeting of the com
mittee to hear both sides at 2:30, but
some how the opposition, pleading
not ready, succeeded in getting The
hour postponed to p. m. and the
second pOstponement until 4 O'Clock
this evening. The skirmishing was
red-hot in the capitol all day, and it
did look like that about half of the
Legislature was made up from Mont
gomery county, and representatives,
were pulled and hauled round, but
toned-holcd, shirted and unshirted
until members hides were rubbed
raw with the siflly starched garments.
However, we left johnson, Dunbar
and WilkersOn wearing side board
collars up to their ears. These gen
tlemen want to do right and they
seem to see the right plainly, but on
the other hand they want to act fairly
literally and cOurteousIy TO all, and
when that petition, signed by 10
names from the annexed territory
was presented, asking for pospone-
ment and full hearing, they thought
the parties were entitled to that
much, and this WAS the mistake for
such hearing only leads to a heated
aud Widening OF the
breach, which will in future be harder +.
to heal, while if the bill had been
called up and passed it would have
put an end to the controversy and all .
would have settled down satisfied. /
But il did not occur to the gentlemen, /
who were not familiar with the facts, /
that the 10 signers Of the petition
were Ill tue names If the opposition
that could be had from the 175 who
voted against annexation, while the
other sixty five who did not sign
were to be counted with the 356 who
did vote for it, making the number
10 stand now i2l for annexation TO
10 against, while the entire city Of
are in favor OF it, and the
country people outside Of this terri.
ory have no interest in it.

THE PUBLIC BUILDING.
The Location Must be Selected and
Coded by the Legislature.

GAINESVILLE people may not gen
orally know it, but it is a fact that the
appropriation of $4,000 by the gov
eminent for public building at
Clarksvile is worth nothing until
the Legislature passes an act ceding
the grounds tor the building to the
government for its jurisdiction, and
the Legislature cannot pass such an
act until the site is agreed upon
and boundary lines, etc, specified.
Now this is real live question and
demands prompt action if the bill is
to be pas ed this session, and whatever
action is necessary must be taken at
once, the location settled and the bin
pr, scented within the next eight or
ten days, which will then require
some prompt attention to get
it through. Unless this is done, We
must wait two years for theappropri-
alton. Unless in the case Of an extra
session the Governor can be in
duced to include it in his call.
The Governor is opposed 10 an extra
cession and will not call it unless alb.
solutely necessary. Now there is no
time to fritter away i'm contentious
over a location, for the whole bust
ness may be lost. At least two years
is a long time to wait, and we would
suggest IA call meeting of the city
board to take the proper action APP
point a good committee OF represent
alive citizens to agree upon "A suita-
bic location and have the proper
officers to accept it aud
then present the bill to the legislature.
