ing. The building was used as dormi-
tory and was occupied by about forty
students, some of whom narrowly es-
capped being burned to death. The build
ing was handsome structure and was
built by tho Alumni Association of
Wofford College several years ago at a
cost of $4,000. 1t was partially covered

room of a student on the third floor, and
was caused by live coal falling from the
grato to the floor, and before the flames
wero discovered had been burning some
timo before they were distinguished.
The alarm of fire was turned in, but
when the department reached tho scene
the flames had made such Roadway that
tho flremen were unable to control the
fire. Tho faculty of Wofford College
held meeting and decided to continue
the school without intermission and
steps will be taken to provide the stu
dents with rooms on the college campus
The building will be rebuilt at once.

Tho Atlanta Kidnapping Bass Frazer.

Atlanta Journal In his anxiety to
have Bass Frazer returned to him, Capt,
N. II. Frazer, the father, has addressed
an appeal to the kidnappers, in w..ii;ohi,
he agrees to pay the $500 and will waive
all future loyal steps, and will not make
the matter public. u
Capt. Frazer, becoming convinced that
all efforts to find his son will fall has
adopted this means of learning of his
whereabouts. He says he is willing to
agree to any terms of return, and will
pay the $500 Immediately.
Nothing further has been learned of
the missing Tech student by local detec-
tivos. They have followed numberless
clues and investigated every rumor, but
without success.

which is addressed direct to the kidnap-

Frazer, of Union Springs, Ala, whose
son Bass was kidnapped about two
weeks ago, while q student at the Tech

lost $500 by decoy letter.
Mr.. Frazer received letter stating
that If he would place $500 in gold, tho
amount he offered for his son, in saok
with peck of potatoes, and proceed
along the road near the United States
Federal prison, several miles from the
city, he would be mot by negro who
would ask, "Massa, has you got dem po-

Ho was to deliver the sack and its con-
tents to the negro and his son would an.
pear at hotel in this city looking for
his father at an early hour Sunday morn.

The letter was signed "Packard;,,
mailed in Atlanta, dated January 10, and
tho instructions wore minute and specific.
Threats of-exposure and failure to carry
out the instructions were frequently
made in it. Mr.. Frazer's son, brother
of tho kidnapped boy, carried out the
plan of tho letter, met the negro as ar
ranged, gave him tho money and potatoes
on saturday night.
This morning he was at tho hotel mon
toned and has remained there all day,
but Bass Frazer has not appeared, and
no trace of him or the person who ro-
coived tho $500 can be found.
