THI: COLD STORAGE FIRE.
Asserted That the LOSS of Life
Was Needless.

CHICAGO, July 17.-John b. Skinner,
president of the company owning the
coal storage building, burned last Mon
day, lays the blame for the loss of life
upon Assistant Fire Marshal Murphy.
Skinner insists that the blunder was
made i'll the face of repeated warnings
from the employees in the building. Cap
tain Fitzpatrick was with Marshal Muir
ply. The men, Mr.. Skinner declares,
would not listen to the warnings of the
men who knew the structure and the
danger of an ascent to the tower. ::
There is one side of this fire case that
has not yet been told" said Mr.. Skinner
y"stei day. "Thcre was absolutely no
excuse for the loss of single life. The
frcmen were informed by our employees
that there was a fire below before they
went up into the tower. They were
begged not to go up, and the danger was
pointed out in advance when there was
plenty of time to order down such as
were already up"

Man Accused

CHARLESTON, S. c., July 17.-The pre-
liminary hearing i'll the cases against the
barkcepcrs arrested in this city on Sat
urday for violating the State liquor law,
began before Justice Miller this morning.
The case of Vincent Chicco being called,
Assistant Attorney General Buchanan,
representing the State, wished to amend
the warrant by making Joe Sanders, an
cmployc in Chicco's establishment, a
party to criminal proceedings.
Mr.. Bissell, attorney for the defend
ants, objected, claiming that this would
constitute new proceedings.
Justice Miller consulted the solicitor oi
the circuit court and decided that the
case should be postponed until tomor-
row. In the meantime new proceedings
will be instituted upon warrants against
Chicco and his agent Sanders.
The hitch was caused by an error OF
Assistant Attorney General Buchanan in
swearing out the warrant in its present
form.

TopIc-Yow and pay. Feel. V. 4: Col if,
PA
A vow is solemn promise made to
God, usually under peculiar circum-
stances, to perform certain duty or to
refrain from something. Vows We're
very common in the old dispensation,
and laws were formulated to regulate
them. The laws did not introduce the
VOW, but simply curtailed the practice
of it. Three kinds of vows are men
toned in the Old Testament-vows of
devotion, of abstinence and of destruc-
ton. Our topic deals with vows both to
God and to man and emphasizes one
feature in both cases. and that is the
payment of vows when once made.
Z. Vows to God. Eccl. v, 4, "Whcn
thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not
to pay it." The custom of making par
ticular vows to God is a very ancient
one. The earliest of such vows is that
Of Jacob at Bethel. 1t is only natural
that in times of peculiar trial, of great
perplexity, of severe affection, that we
should make vows unto God if he would
deliver us, or even in times of great and
unexpected blessings to vow to devote
some special offering unto God to show
our gratitude. God does not demand
such VOWS of us, yet they are not dis
pleasing to Him. Perhaps He would
rather that we should always be in such
a relation to Him, that no extra vows
could be made, because we faithfully
performed all our own duties. But since
such condition is rarely found God
does not dislike our vows, but He docs
demand of us that when made VOWS
should be faithfully paid. He does not
make it obligatory upon us to make vows,
but He does oblige us to fulfill them. II
we are in trouble or distress, He does
not require us to vow vow if He de-
livers us, but He expects us to keep il
if we do. Too many vows are not paid
This is highly displeasing TO God. 1t Is
a sin against Him. Therefore when W.
vow let us pay our vows.
2. Vows to man. Col. iii, 1924, '.Sery.
ants, obey in all things your masters
This is the principle Of vows between |
man and man. Payment is the thing
required 1t is the same as between man |
and God. We are not required to make
obligations to our fellow men, but if we
do our promises should be faithfully |
kept. No one is compelled to take tn
marriage vow, but when taken it Shout. /
be sacredly guarded and fulfilled No
one is obliged to accept Office under his
government and to vow the performance
of certain duties, but if he does his Office
should be looked upon as sacred trust,
never to be violated. The servant should
obey his master in all things-or, in other
words, whenever one man vows to an.
other the performance of certain duties,
these should be as faithfully kept as il
he had vowed to God himself.
