TOBACCO WAREHOUSE BURNS
National Tobacco Company Loses n
Million Dollars Worth.

Louisville Ky. Feb. 25.-The picking
| drying and steaming warehouse of the
National Tobacco company. situated at
Twenty-fourth and Main streets. were to-
tally destroyed by fire this morning. The
loss will amount to 81 900, 900. fully covered
| by insurance.
Three men were hemmed in by the
flames and all were more or less injured
| before they could make their egress from
the burning plant.
The injured are:
George Tisshenderf, foreman picking de-
partment; hack injured and severe hurts
about head and chest.
William Semple, picker; skull fractured.
John Packham; both legs broken and in
ternally injured.
Semple and Packham will probably die
Mr.. w. B. Duke of New York president
of the American Tobacco company, of
which the National Tobacco company of
Louisville is a branch, is in the city and
witnessed the destruction of his prop
erty. He said it would be at once re-
built
The fire was discovered at s o'clock on
the second floor of the building. used for
drying purposes. Three alarms called the
entire department to the scene and al
though the firemen worked heroically.
they could do little less than save the
property adjoining. as the three big build
ings which occupy nearly the entire square
between Twentyfourth and Twenty-fifth
and Main and Market streets were seen
to be doomed.
From the three-story drying building the
flames spread rapidly west to the four
story warehouse and east to the three
story steaming house. In the building
which caught first. 200 hands. mostly wo-
men and children, were employed, but
the majority of these escaped safely. only
a few being slightly injured, as did 200
who were at work in the steaming build
ing. In the four-story warehouse, 1000
men were at work but they had plenty
OF time to escape.
The flames gained rapid Roadway and
the fire department was hindered to
great degree by lack of water. seven en-
gfnes being at one time useless. Falling
walls added to the danger of the work
and the escape or some Of the hremen
was all but miraculous.
When the alarm of fire was sounded In
the picking department the employees Of
this building began to make their escape
in an orderly manner, but George lis

MONEY FOR MISSIONS
student Volunteers Debate the
Financial Question.

Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 25.-The Money
Problem in the Christian Missions" was
discussed al the morning session Of the
Student Volunteer convention today.
Chairman Mot tpresided and devotional
exercises were conducted by Bishop Har-
grave of Nashville, Tenn, president Of the
Epworth league board OF the Methodist
Episcopal church, South.
The first speaker was Bishop Ninde of
Detroit. He said the present tendency was
to decry the money making spirit in men.
Instead ne would such talent were en-
couraged and rightly guided, that it
might prove a great power to reclaim the
world. Bishop Ninde said if the statis-
tics of the wealth in the hands of pro-
fessed Christians were known they would
startle the world. Most of the wealth Of
the world is in the hands of the Christ
ians. Referring 10 the small gifts of the
self-sacrifcing poor. the speaker said:
Many Of the charitable worke of this
country are carried on by associated pow
erty"
Rev. A F. Schauffler, D. D., vice presi-
dent of the New York City Missionary
Tract society, was the next speaker, say
ing in part:
The wise man says Money answereth
all things This is true Money is a Won
droUs thing. In a true sense, money is

MUSIC AND DRAMA

A large audience was charmed last
evening at the First NJ. Z. church with
the musical abilities of Blind Boone.
This ebony hued product of the south
is a wonderful performer. Unlike Blind
Tom, who created furore years ago,
though a simple minded fellow, Boone is
an intelligent representative of his race
and quite well educated. He is able to
play an ymusical composition on the pi-
ano, demonstrating this fact last night
by giving Listz's Hungarian Rhapsodie
No. 6; the Hungarian Storm, by the same
author; Gottschalck's Last Hope, and
Beethovens Sonata Pathetique His felic-
ity of execution was simply astonishing.
and when he played a difficult piece after
hearing Professor Boyd render it, the
audience was more than enthusiastic.
Blind Boone gave several of his own COM
positions the most wonderfully effective
being his imitation of a tornado. the
Chickering grand upon which he played
being stirred as if into angry wind, rain,
and thunder by his mastery hand. The
program was varied by the singing of
plantation songs by Boone and similar
wierd compositions by Miss Stella May.
Miss May showed good sense by combining
her selections to this class of music in
stead of going into the classical. The
public has had a surfeit OF the latter, but
of the former too little. Her rendition of
''Massa's in the Cold, Cold Ground and
similar melodies was simply irresistible
The concert was in all respects happily
presented and thoroughly enjoyed.-Wis-

hall Tuesday evening. March /.
