Columbus, Dec. 12.-The state board
Of public works yesterday granted the
application of Mechel and Son, of Mas
sillon, for 10 year lease of a small
tract of land in that city. The descrip-
ton of the land as it appears in the
lease is as follows:
"Situate in the city of Massillon,

whole west wing was a mass Of
flames. The firemen rushed to the
scene as soon as the alarm was sound
ed but we're unable to combat the
flames owing to the weak water pres
sure. A fire engine was finally
brought up but when 1t arrived and
was put to work IL could do nothing
except confine the flames to the main
building and thus save the new chapel
and the library
Next to the university company the
loss falls most heavily upon Prof.
Scovel who lost a library which was
priceless and which he had spent a
life time in collecting, together with
his manuscripts and writings many of
which were the work of years. Many
of the students lost their notebooks
which were also valuable.
RECORDS ARE ALL LOST.
All. the records Of the institution
are burned and the members Of the
faculty found themselves without .

The Christmas vacation will be one
week longer this year than customary
to give the faculty and trustees an op
portunity to arrange the temporary
quarters for use.
The student body will stand by tn,

ings are provided.
The insurance on the burned struc
ture was carried by the following com
panies: Royal, of London, $4,000;

CITIZENS HELD A
GREAT meeting i.
Or. Holden Appealed to the
Town for Aid..Students Will
Stand With the College,

(Stan Special,

Wooster, Dec. 12.-Wooster is bowed
down with grief over the loss Of the
main building of the university which
was destroyed by fire at an early
hour yesterday morning. Not until
late Wednesday afternoon did the
citizens seem to realize the damage
the fire had wrought. Everybody was
awaiting the return Of President Hol-
den, upon whose shoulders the task Of
rehabilitating the school, so long the
beacon light Of Calvinism for all the
northern and eastern portions of Ohio
will fall.
The instructors seemed to have no
plan for the future of the school and
little knots Of men and women stood
on the street corners discussing what
should be done and how they should
60 about doing it. Finally after hours
of talk, some genius who perhaps had
been trained in place where hustle
and not study was the earthly rule of
faith and practice suggested that a
citizens meeting be called to discuss
ways and means of rebuilding the
burned structure. The suggestion met
with instant approval and the town
meeting was ordered called and for
the first time it began to look as
though Wooster university would rise
out of its ashes better and grander
than before. When the initial ster
had been taken then suggestions came
thick and fast and before night II
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1901-12-13

seemed almost certain that the new
public school building which is al
most completed would be turned over
to the trustees for temporary use or
until the new buildings could be COM
pleted.
HELD A GREAT MEETING.
A first class start was made at the
meeting Wednesday evening toward
raising funds among the citizens Of
Wooster and Wayne county. The city
opera house was crowded. Hon. L. p.
Ohliger presided. President Holden,
who had arrived in the early evening,
made an appeal to the citizens for as
sistance. The burden. he said, was
too great for the college corporation
to bear alone.
There was q spontaneous movement
toward raising money on the spot. In
fifty minutes times total of $15,51O
was subscribed by those present, pay
able Immediately or on demand. Prep
arations were also made for the ap-
pointment of a committee of fifteen to
assist in raising money in Wayne
county. 1t is hoped to raise by pop
ular subscription at least $4,000.
The committee will be named by the
mayor Immediately. BY the time the
meeting adjourned much more hope
full tone was apparent among the cit
liens. efa
The 100000 insurance which the
trustees will receive on the burned
building will go long way toward
replacing the burned structure. Then
the university has many wealthy and
influential friends who are counted
upon to donate handsomely. toward q
new building. Among these may be
mentioned II. c. Frick, Of Pittsburg
who recently gave the institution d
new library building at a cost OF
$50, 1000.
THREE SMALL BUILDINGS.
The expectation is that instead OF
one large building three smaller ones
will be erected. One of these would
be occupied as a chemical laboratory;
another as a biological laboratory
while the third would be used for Of
fees and recitation rooms. This plan
seems to meet the approval of all the
interested parties and particularly the
instructors. 1t will likely be the one
adopted by the trustees when they hold
their meeting which they will do in
a few days. The executive commit
tee of the board will meet as soon as
President Holden returns home and
set date for meeting of the full
board.
Further investigation during We'd
nesday afternoon into the cause of the
fire disclosed the fact that it was pos.
sibly due largely to the carelessnesf
of some Of the students in the class
in practical chemistry. The fire orig.
mated in the laboratory in the wesl
wing Of the building and this class
had been the last to occupy that por.
tion of the building.
MAY HAVE BEEN CARELESSNESS
In making some experiments the
members of the class had been using
phosphorus and 1t is thought that some
