REV. MIR. MORGAN CALLED.
lie Is Wanted as Pastor OF the Penn
Avenue Baptist Church.


Avenue Baptist Church.
Rev. Charles r. Morgan, of the Spring
Garden Street Baptist church, Philadel-
phia has been extended a call to the
Penn Avenue Baptist church Of this
city. This was decided upon at a meet
ing of the congregation last night.
MIR. Morgan was the popular choice
of the meeting of several weeks ago
when the congregation balloted and
debated several hours but on each bal
lot fell few votes short of the number
necessary to u choice He is bachelor,
is about 40 years of age and during his
ministry his home has been managed
by his sister, q woman of considerable
ability and a practical church worker.
About thirteen years ago Mr.. Morgan
became pastor of the Frankford Baptist
church. Philadelphia. but resigned to
accept a call from the Spring Garden
street church whose congregation will
probably make determined effort to
keep him. The field of that church is.
however, limited owing to number
of other churches of the same denomi-
nation in that section of the city, and
only on this account did Mr.. Morgan
become a conditional candidate for the
pastorate here. He gave no positive as
surance that he would come II called
and the Scranton congregation will con-
slider itself fortunate if it can procure
him. He considered the candidacy in
this city only because Of the wide field
for church work.
Mr.. Morgan Is described as one of in
tense religious fervor, fluent and con-
vincing speaker. practical. conservative
and an interchangeable worker, which
qualities indicate that he is much the
same kind of man as is Rev. Warren
G.. Partridge, the recent pastor who re-
signed to accept the pastorate OF the
Ninth Street church at Cleveland.

Hands Out Of Enployment.

One of the largest and best built col
lieries in this region. the Mount Look
out, at Wyoming. was totally destroyed
by fire yesterday afternoon. II was
owned by Simpson ~ Watkins, the
Scranton coal operating firm. which
conducts n large coal interest up and
down this valley. The mine and break
er were in fun operation when the fire
occurred, but there were no fatalities
1t Is supposed that the flames started
from a hot journal above the screen
room. At all events the oiler was at
another point at the time and the fire
secured an uncomfortable headwav be-
fore ii was discovered. The oil-soaked
woodwork proved very combustiblc
food for the flames which develooed 50
rapidly that in few moments the heat
was SO intense that no one could ap-
proach within $50 feet.
Fears were entertained for the safety
of several hundred men at work in the
mine by those who did not know that
the mouth of the shaft Is about 300 feet
from the breaker. Many We're lifted
out. but the majority made their escape
through the safety exits. The several
fire hydrantS near the breal:er were
useless. as they could not be APP
preached because of the intense heat.
Destroyed in Less That Two Hours
The fire burned fiercely. " started
at i.45 o'clock and In less than two
hours the structure collapsed. Traffic
was delayed until after Q O'Clock on the
bloomsbury division Of the Lackawan-
ma road. whose tracks run beneath tine
shed of the breaker.

C. ID. Simpson and r. II. Watkins, the
senior members of the firm, are in New
York.
The tonnage of the breaker waI 300
employment in and outside the mines
to 700 men and boys. The breaker was
one of the best in the country. About
100000 feet of Georgia pine and hem

was nut in operation six years ago and
was insured for 1000

enced in sinking the shaft. the job last
ing two years. In the tract are G5C

said the breaker will be replaced al
once. Meanwhile the firm will rot bs
