Schools and Their Festivals.
ST. Paul's Sunday school held its
Christmas festival at 5 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. The festival was to have been
at 6 O'Clock but owing to the fact that
Bishop Nelson, who was to preach at St
Stephens church at 80 o'clock, was to
address the Sunday school, the festival
was held an hour earlier.
The church was filed with children
and members of ST Pauls congregation.
The exercises included the singing of
Christmas carols and hymns, the Apostles
creed and talk by the bishop on Sun
day schools, and the duties of parents
The energy of the infants carol, was
one of the features of the festival.

Such preparations as could be hur.
rledly made were set in motion TO re.
move the goods and guard the other
buildings, but all such efforts were the
merest child's play. The utter hopeless
ness of such attempts on such short
notice were made apparent Mt once.
The few officers on guard could no more
than hope that the flames would be
speedily stayed.
BY this time the fire boats and en-
gines had succeeded in subduing the
flames in the peristyle, and on the low
er southeast side of the liberal arts
building, and hopes were entertained
that the fire would be subdued, but
shortly after II the flames were be-
yond control. Remorselessly the fire
hurled itself through the interstices of
the big iron arches of the dizzy heights
Of the liberal arts building.
Opinions seemed general that the loss
by water was even greater than that
by fire. Federal officers put the loss,
If the fire does not spread beyond the
liberal arts building, at million dol
lars. On the other hand, estimates by
people connected with the local direc-
tory made the highest figures $15O,OOO
About 10:45 the great iron arch gave
way directly above the French section
and falling heavily, buried the French
wares beneath the burning pile. All
the American exhibits were long ago
removed, but the formalities of the
custom house detained the goods of
foreigners. Superintendent Graham, of
the manufactures building said the loss
could hardly be overestimated. 'I fear.

The fire department fought with ener

against them. A fierce wind came over
the lake, blowing the embers every
where and tanning them into life at
every moment
AT midnight President Higginbotham
telephoned the general manager of the
Associated Press saying he had been in
the burning building over two hours
that the roof had burned and fallen,
lut fortunately few exhibits were in
range Of the falling embers. II should
say" said he. "that the loss by water
would be much greater than Ivy fire.
The total loss to exhibits will not ex-
