Her death was hastened by the excite ment consequent on her nasty removal to a place of safety Scores of persons were hurt and burned but the loss of life is not thought to be great There are many per sons supposed to be missing but in the excitement and fright most of these are supposed to be separated from their fami- lies and friends.

He was driving an engine for Passaic when the horses bolted and before Fitzmaurice could get them under control they brought the ap- paratus against an electric pole and Fitz- maurice, who had not waited to strap himself in, was hurled out upon his head.

GETS OUT AN EXTRA
 AND IS THEN BURNED.

The Sunday Chronicle issued an extra al o'clock this morning giving the story of the first two hours of the fire At 1 o'clock the fire spread down Ellison street, attacked the Chronicle, and com pletely destroyed 1t
 What started the fire is not certain, but 1t is thought that one of the feed wires running into the car barns was re- sponsible. From the carsheds the flames leaped to other buildings close by, and these were burned before the first car firemen reached the scene Inside of two hours the fire reached Main street. This was the critical point of the fire. The firemen sought to hold the blaze con- fined there and failed. The First Baptist church was one of the first to go after this. The destruction of the church was spectacular. The tower burned before the body. A big blazing splinter was carried through the air and lodged on a window sill. From this the flames spread up to the top of the tower and while all around it was still intact, the tower blazed up and presented a beautiful sight From the tower the flames descended into the church, and from then on the fight was seemingly hopeless.

 The full rehearsal last Tuesday night was better attended than any of the season. Out of the 150 members nearly ninety were present.
 The festival rehearsal will be changed this week from Tuesday night to Thurs day night so as not to run counter to the Burmeister concert.
