The 4. o. o. r. Social.

The hall of the /. o. O. II. fraternity
was filled at an early hour on Thurs
day evening of last week with mem
bers of the order and few invited
guests, the occasion being a friendly
gathering for social enjoyment.
Although sickness prevented the at
tendance of some and the carrying
out ola prepared instrumental music
al part of the program, yet the good
feeling that prevailed and the general
desire tohave a good time made up
for all deficiencies. The musical part
of the program comprised a song by
the ever welcome Young Ladies'
choir. Bro. Weld had the duty of try
ing TO sustain the speech making and
w. p. Knowles recited very acceptably
a defamation. The principal part
of the evenings program then follow
ed, being an excellent supper prepared
by the ladies assisted by some of the
gentlemen. This was followed by a
social hop, in which young and old
participated with much zest.
Such gatherings do very much to
bring the people together, get them
acquainted and drawn out of the habit
of solitary selfishness which seems
inevitable where men depend only
upon themselves for their enjoyment.
The association of the day april 1st)
led many to expect a series of jokes
and illusions, both in the literary and
astronomical Entertainment, but
the absence of all these constituted
the only April part of the program.

THE BROOKLYN

Strikes Rock In the Delaware River-Big
Hole Torn In Her Bottom.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 1.-The United
States cruiser Brooklyn, calculated to
stand the fercest onslaught of shot
and shell, Sunday lies almost utterly
helpless because of narrow ledge Of
sunken rock in the Delaware river,
above Marcus Hook, Pa, ON
which she struck heavily Satur-
day afternoon. Her lower double COM
partments, forward, were completely
stove in. and it was only by the merest
good fortune that the big vessel did
not sink. This would undou ubtedly
have been the result had not her inner
compartments successfully withsto
the shock. As it was, she was pulled
clear of the rocks and is now tied to
the big stone ice-breakers at Marcus
Hook, protected from the heavy ice
gorges in midriver.

o'clock Sunday morning. Seven per-
sons were burned to death and 30 FAM
lilies were made homeless
The Saturday night fire started In
the three story frame building ut 40
Newark street Here six persons lost
their lives, they were: Mrs. Nellie
Schroeder, 40 years; Henry Schroeder,
II years: Maggie Schroeder, years;
Kate Schroeder, Q years; John Schroe-
der,3 years; Willie Schroeder,3 months.
The father Of the family, Charles
Schroeder, WAS In q nesrby saloon
playing cards while his wife and child
rem were dying.
The second fire started at 3 o'clock
Sunday morning in the fve-story dou-
ble deck tenement &C 1917 Fourteenth
street, overa mile from the scene Of the
first In this FIRE three tenements; Nos
1856, ,157 and 150 were entirely wrecked,

first discovered the fire, which had
gained such headway, and barely made
their escape by way Of the roofs Of ad.
joining buildings It was impossible
to discover the fate of the Shroeder
family until the fire had subsidized.
When the police entered the build.
ing little save the shell remained, and
they were obliged to exercise great
care in climbing about the place. They
finally reached the top floor and made
their way into the front room.
Stretched across the bed, blackened
and charred, lay the mother, and
clasped tightly in her arms W - the
little baby, Willie.
Besides the mother and baby, in the
same bed lay the charred bodies Of
the girls Maggie and Kate. It is likely
they were suffocated in their sleep.
On q mattress ON the floor near the
window lay the body of the boy John,
but the body Of Henry, the oldest boy,
was nowhere to be seen. Upon further
search being made, the boys body was
found under . mass of debris In the
hall, burned almost to q crisp.
1t is believed that the boy was
aroused during the fire and in his ef-
forts to escape ran into the hall. There
he was overcome by the smoke and his
body covered with part of the roof
which fell in at that point. Tho loss
to the building and contents will prob

HORRIBLE STORY.
Sixty Amaxons, Guarding the Hos.
pital, Resist 600 Spaniards.
All Bus Eight Of the Former We're shot
Down and Horribly Butchered-S
suty Sick soldterA Six surosons
and Ten Nurses Also Ktllsd.

NEW York, Feb. la special from
Key West, Fla, says: A horrible
story comes from Remedies. Near
Placetas the insurgents had . large
hospital where were quartered sick
and wounded soldiers. Near the in
surgent camp was also located the
wen-known leper hospital Of Cardosa,
In which were about twenty unfortun-
ates Guarding the insurgents hos
pital was a company of Cuban amazons,
numering about seventy, under com.
mand of Senorita Inez Alvares, whose
father and brothers had been butchi
cred by Spar iards, and who had taken
up arms for revenge.
The hospital was in solitary loca-
ton and was thought to be safe from
Spanish molestation. But q colonel Of
the Spanish regiment De Bourbons,
operating in that district. learned of
the hospitals location and sent 500
men to destroy it. The Spaniards at
tackled at night and fred the build
ings. The inmates and Amazon guards
awoke to find the flames roaring about
them. The sick and wounded soldiers
could not escape, but the Amazons
rushed out only to be greeted by q
murderous fire.
The amazons fought bravely, but
they were only handful compared to
the Spaniards, and were soon shot
down. All were butchered except
eight, whose peculiar beauty led the
Spanish commander to order them
saved for fate worse than death. In
the hospital there we're more than 70
sick and wounded soldiers, six SUR
geons and ten nurses. Not one OF
these escaped, and, including the anna
IONS, nearly $50 persons fell victims to
Spanish thirst for slaughter.
Returning, the Spaniards passed the
leper hospital, which they set on fire.
and nearly all of the inmates perished
in the flames.
New YORK. Feb. LA special to the
Herald from Havana, Cuba, via Key
West. Fla. says: Salvador Herrera, who
was killed at Finca, near Sagua La
Grande, was an American citizen.
The Spanish guerilla force, into
whose hands Herrera fell, was led by
Carrera.
When found the body of the unfor'
tunate American was taken to Sagus
La Grande. It was shockingly mutt
lated and covered with wounds made
by the machete.
