HEROIC JOURNALISM.
"A Newspaper Published in
Burning Building.

AUGUSTA, Ga, Aug. Ell Special l.
The greatest fire in the history of Au-
gusta in recent years occurred this
morning in the heart Of the city. Over
a quarter of million OF dollars went
up in the flames. The fire was discov-
cred about o'clock in the largo three
story building occupied by Fleming e
Bowles, furniture dealers. and tho
Alexander Seed and Drug Company. M.
f. Walsh, night editor Of the Chronicle,
situated two doors above, discovered the
fire. By the time the fire department.
arrived the flames had got such head
way that tho total destruction OF the
Alexander Seed and Drug Company
building was seen to be inevitable.
So inf1ammable was the material con-
tainod in the buildings that The flames
spread with tho greatest rapidity, both
east and west. Firemen ascended to
the roof garden OF Connellys restaurant
and began to fight the intense heat, but
wore powerless to cope with the flames.
Connellys restaurant seemed to check
their progress on the east, but they
made good Roadway on the west.
When 1t was realized which way the
hamoS Wcrc 6ALlHR Cnl' hOulott ran
stream Of water up the rear stairway of
the Chronicle offices and from the gang
way fought the flames. 1t was a des-
perate battle, and while the Chronicle
force was at work putting news of the
lire in type the firemen seemed to hold
their own, but it was not for long. The
story OF the fire was put in cold type.
Although tho heat almost scorched the
men at work, they stuck to their posts
until the story, briefly told. was printed,
and the Chronicle predicted its own
fate. The Chronicle force worked to
the last moment, and when the press
ceased to revolve it had turned out the
entire issue OF the Chronicle.
The flames claimed their own and the
men retreated from the doomed build
ind. 1t was just flftsen minutes after
six o'clock when the floor in tho COM
posing room of the Chronicle collapsed
and down came the immense stone slabs
ano thousands of pounds OF type, maklng
o deafening noise, Tho walls came
down with terrific crash, completely
burying tho small frame house in the
rear OF August DORIS store.
About eight o'clock the fro was got
unoer control, and thanks to the thick
wall between the Chronicle building
and the Dorr building, the flames could
not pass further up the block, which
otherwise seemed doomed.
