leaning over the battlements of
Heaven, can look down on things

who are caEorting around over the

BRAVE FIREMEN.

Tbirty-hve Fire Fighters Dangerously
 Burned by Exploding "n
 BRADDoCK. Pa, May IA. The barrel house at Emery's refinery in this city took fire yesterday afternoon, presum. ably by spontaneous combustion and was destroyed. The loading racks and five tank cars standing on side track of the Buffalo, Rochester & Pitts burgh road were also burned. While the fremen were making final stand and thousands of people. .were watching it, there was tremendous explosion. A tank car holding HOO gallons of benzine had let go with mighty roar Fortunately the burning benzine which was thrown into the air in sheets of liquid fire had consumed itself before settling dc wn over the crowd.
 The explosion was followed by a panic that cannot be described in words. Blind, unreasoning, pitiless instinct of self-preservation showed it- self, and the weak went down before the strong in multitudes of cases, in the frantic rush to escape what seemed to threaten horrible death. In the stampede men as well as women and children were thrown down and trodden over by the flying masses that surged up from behind. Thirty-ive of the fremen were burned so that the skin peeled off their faces and hands, and the hair was singed off their heads and faces. Of the many others who are slightly burned there is no record, and the total number of those burned and injured in the stampede will probably reach 100 persons. With all the suffering this fire will cause, the property loss will not exceed S. O0O

THE TABERNACLE.
The Great Brooklyn Ediflce De-
 stroyed by Fire.
THE ELECTRIC LIGHTS CAUSED IT.
The Fire Spreads Rapidly and Destroys Property to the Value of Nearly 0z,s00,OOo-Tabernacle to
 Be Rebuilt.

BROOKLYN, May 13.-Just after serv- ice at noon yesterday, and while Dr.. Talmage was shaking hands with mem- bers of his congregation, fire burst out between the pipes of the organ and within ten minutes the big tabernacle was doomed to total destruction. Ad- joining the church was the Hotel Re- gent. eight stories in height The fire spread from the taber- the dwelling houses on Greene and Waverly avenues, opposite the taber- nacle. The wind carrying the blazing cinders in such quantities in a south easterly direction that dwelling houses in Washington avenue, two squares away and also the Summerfield Method ist church were set on fire by them; but the greatest loss on any one of these structures did not exceed s15, ,00o. The total loss, however, reaches over S1. 900, 900.
 The doctor held quite a reception at his home during the afternoon. Dr.. Talmage made graphic statement of the incidents connected with the fire. He said At the close of the church service was standing at the foot of the pulpit shaking hands with hun dreds of people from all lands. I was about through and walked toward the center of the church where my wife stood, when she called my attention to fire springing out from the top of the af hns nC under full headway and my first i'm pulse was to look around and see how many people were then in church and to my great joy there were only about twenty and with twenty-five doors to get out through, I felt they would all escape"
 When asked for his own opinion as to the cause of the fire, he said emphat. ically:
 "Electric lights Electricity caused this fire, as it did in the last tabernacle on Schermerhorn street"
 The fire spread with lightning-like rapidity and before sunset had de- stroyed property to the value of nearly S2, 900, 900.
 The furniture in the Hotel Regent, which cost from s2JO, to s25O, ,OO1, is entirely destroyed, the total loss on the building and its contents footing up in the neighborhood of ss5O, 900. This loss falls upon the Brooklyn Hotel Co.,, and will be largely increased by the indi- vidual losses to the guests The loss on the church is not far short of s5OO,- OOl
 The trustees of the tabernacle met last night and decided to rebuild the church, but not on the same site The insurance, the receipts and the money realized from the sale of the present site, would enable them to pay off all their debts. Then, according to the plan, they would raise s2OO,OOO, and within q year would begin to build. About s7O. 900 it was thought, would be sufficient to pay for a site and a less expensive building would be erected.
 It was decided that Dr. Talmage's trip around the world should begin to- day, as arranged.
