FIVE LITTLE BOYS BURNED
Ia Fire Which Consumed the Dallas
Orphans Home
In the Confusion Attending the Confla-
grafton Many Other Children Were
Forgotten and Suffered Severely.

DALLAS, Tex, Jan. 15.-At a late hour
tonight the boys department of Buck
ner's orphans home, five miles from the
city. was destroyed by fire. Five boys
perished in the flames and several others
were burned. The dead are Carlos Jones,
Birdie Britton, Milton Britton, Martin
Britton, unknown child.
Before Mrs. Britton, the boys'matron,
retired she had the boys clean out and
prepare stove situated in the room just
under hers for the morning fire. This
was her usual custom. She then sent
one of the large boys, upon whom she
could depend regularly for work of the
kind, to see if the work had been prop
erly done. He reported that everything
was all right and she then retired She
had been in bed but few minutes when
she smeled' smoke and Immediately
jumped up to investigate. Even the
floor under her feet was almost too hot
to stand on and she raised the alarm and
runners were sent to all the rooms to
alarm the children and get them out of
the building as quickly as possible. In
her anxiety to get the children out
she neglected to assist those who were in
her own room. Seeing a large percentage
Of the children had been removed from
the building and that others would be
out in a few moments, she suddenly re-
membered her own, and running to her
room endeavored to rescue them. She
was too late, however, as the fire mad
already entered her room, and although
she fought the flames with desperate
zeal she was compelled to retreat with
the affirighted cries of her children ring
ing in her ears, knowing they were
doomed to death. In the confusion
which reigned while the children were
being hurriedly assisted from the build
ing many were overlooked and several
of the little fellows were seriously burn
ed. The building, with all its furniture,
was destroyed. The loss is not yet
known.

TURKISH MISSIONARIES.
Find a Defender in Dr. Hamlin O
Boston.

BOSTON, Jan. 15-Rev. DR.. Cyrus
Hamlin has issued a reply to structures
on the missionaries in Turkey made by
F. Hopkinson Smith, the artist Dr.
Hamlin denies that the Armenians have
organized for purposes of war; and con-
tinues:
1.-The real crime of their missionaries
is their bold and faithful stand by the
victims of the sultan's hatred. James
Brice, M. p, author of The American
Commonwealth, says the American
minister to Turkey might we'll have put
some pressure ON the sultan in favor
of the Christians, but he proved 'un-
equal to the occasion.
1T may be we'll to explode Mr.. Smith S
story of the guard of Robert college
Mr. Terrell sent the guard against
President Washburne's wishes-who
said: We are on the best of terms with
the village of Hissar, and We need no
guard
Nevertheless Judge Terrell sent it,
evidently to have something to boast of,
which he does through his friend, Mr.
Smith, That any professor of Robert
college has talked against the sultan
and the Turks is undoubtedly false. The
