DIVING FoR A BRIDGE.
Deep Sea Divers Employed to Recover
Steel From Dos Moines River.

Steel From Oes Moines River.
Des Moines, Oct. 1.-THE American
Bridge company is now engaged in an
effort to recover about $4,000 worth
of bridge steel from the bed of the
Des Moines river. To do this it has
enlisted the services of a professional
diver and his crew, John Jabine, of
New Orleans.
Mr.. Jabine arrived in the city Thurs
day with diving bell, air pumps and all
the paraphernalia of deep water diver
and commenced his work yesterday 1t
is likely that the work will continue
several days.
The steel Is the material that had
been placed on the false work for the
two east spans of the Chicago Great
Western across the Des Moines at the
foot of East Fifth street. This material,
weighing about 100000 pounds, was
pracipitated into the river by the
washing out of the false work during
the big food in July. Practically
every vestige OF the steel disappeared
under the water and none of it has
been recovered since. Much of it has
been located, but because of the depth
of the river at this point and the fact
the steel went down from directly over
the channel, it has been impossible to
fasten tackle to it for hosting This
is the work Mr.. Jabine is ex-
pected to do. With his bell he will be
able to remain under water for con-
siderable periods of time and to fasten
the tackle to the steel SO that it can
be loisted out. 1t will also be part
of his work to walk over the river bed
with steel rod and prod for sections
of the steel that has been covered with
mud and sand and to excayate about
1t so that 1t can be hoisted out.
Jabine and his crew work from a.
boat. The tackle is arranged over a
crane on the shore and when the chains

The Lexington intelligencer., 1902-04-12

Considerable excitement was crea-
ted in Lexington shortly after noon
Thursday when it became known
that the Baptist college had in some
way caught fire and that the des-
truction of the buildings was threat
ened Hundreds Of people hocked to
the scene and all went to work to
save the large structure. The fire
department responded promptly and
did good work under the circum-
stances, the blaze, which was hidden
between the ceiling and the manSard
roof, having been subdued after a
fight of three or four hours, the
.mansard roof on the west wing hav-
ing been mostly removed in order to
reach the seat of the trouble. Most
of the furniture was removed from
the college, and 10 the excitement CT
the moment many articles of useful
ness were thrown from second story
windows and crushed upon the
ground.
The fire was first discovered in one
of the rooms on the second floor and
is supposed to have originated from a
China kiln, conducted in the art
department..
1t is probable that $1,000 will
cover the loss and the building was
insured.
Messrs. White and Cook, as soon as
the fire had been conquered, went to
work to arrange habitable quarters
for their boarders and succeeded
beyond expectation. The college was
opened to the pupils on Friday morn.

The funeral of Miss Mamie Andrew,
whose death occurred on Wednesday
morning shortly after midnight, took
place at half past three O'Clock
Thursday afternoon, the very large
attendance attesting most unmis-

which the young lady was held by the
people of Lexington. Funeral SER

terlan church, Of which deceased was
consistent member, and an appro-
pirate sermon was preached by the
Rev. DR.. E. @. Gordon, the pastor,
Special music arranged for the occa-

there was large number Of floral
offerings Of beautiful design.
Interment took place at Machpelah

PLANS FOR MUSIC AT THE

Popular Rather Than Classic Produc-
tons to Be Rendered at the
Exposition

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 1.-THE executive
committee will tomorrow recommend to
the Worlds Fair board OF directors the
immediate organization Of the bureau OF
music A committee OF which George
D Markham. member Of the board. is
Chairman, has during the past two
months made an exhaustive investiga-
tioD of the subject Of music for the ex-
position. The committee has arrived at
conclusions Which have received the ap-
prevail OF the executive committee and
which VIII be recommended 70 the
board. The report Of the committee is
concurred in by John schroers and Isaac
A Hedges, tie only members OF II no~,
in the city. The conclusion in which the
public is most interested. probably, is
that which defines the policy TO govern
the music to be supplied during the ex-
position This policy. in the words Of
Mr.. Markham. Is as follows:
A worlds fair is not the place 70
have high-gTade orchestral or vocal mu-
sic IN advanced forms The better the
musician the more unwilling he is 20
suppress the holiday spirit and 70 strain
his attention listening TO such pro-
grams"
The committee did not reach d deei-
sion in favor OF the policy Of popular
music until the members conferred with
people in various parts OF the country
whose information seemed complete and
whose judgment was deemed reliable.
