OF DUTY ON TRAIN.
Engineer Ray Struck Upon
Forehead.
INJURIES SOON PROVED FATAL.
Alleged that Dynamo of Headlight
Exploded and Parts Struck Engineer
on Head-Body is Carried to South
Carolina Today

Engineer W. L. Ray, of the Seaboard
Airline, met with fatal accident yes
terday morning at Richland, and at a
late hour last night lay at the point of
death at his home on Elm avenue, near
the shops.
From the first moment he was I'M
conscious, and his death was knowo to
be a matter of hours only
The terrible accident caused greatest
sorrow among the hundreds of friends
of Mr., Ray, as he was held in the high
est esteem here.
The accident to the young engineer
was considered peculiar one, brought
about, it was said, by the explosion of
the dynamo attached to the electric
headlight of the engine.
Two heavy bits of the shattered dy-
namo were hurled back into the engine
cab, each one striking Engineer Bay
upon the forehead.
The skull was broken, the brains of
the unfortunate man protru ling.
Engineer Ray left Amerlcus yester-
day morning at o'clock with an extra
engine, going west. e was at Rich
land, while moving slowly around the
Y, that the accident occurred, which
resulted in death
When the fireman sprang to the
rescue the stricke en- engineer still grasE-
ed the thro tile with one nerveless
hand, the other holding the cord attach
ed to the engine whistle
Dr. Cato went out from Americas on
the 8 O'Clock train and rendered surgi-
cal assistance
Death Game Last Night.
Mr. Ray was brought to Americas at
noon and carried to his home on Elm
avenue. He sank slowly during the
afternoon, death coming at 8:48 O'Clock
last night. His demise causes keenest
sorrow here.
The young engineer was 81 years of
age and, it is said, was to have welded
shortly. No one here was held in
greater esteem.
The body will be carried to his for
mer home in South Carolina, an escort
of Masons ard members of the BIZ
accompanying 1t and leaving by the
noon train on the Seaboasd. via Sa-
vannah and Columbia.
Mr., Ray had resided here several
months and was one of the best young
engineers in the service.

BLAZE STARTED IN WAREHOUSE
Narrow Escape From Serious Con-
fiagration-Ten Bales Scorched but
Damage SIight-Fire In Cotton Gin.
merry Yesterday Morning

L i've RIArm5 OF uE0 W1bnlu twenty
four hours was the record of the Amer
icus department up to noon yesterday,
and the fact that the total loss did not
exceed two hundred dollars speaks
volumes for the efficiency of our de-
partment, the best in the state
One residence ablaze, grass field
endangeriEg many residences, cotton
warehouse IRE, and blaze at cotton
giunery made up the four dangerous
situations here.
That was the fire record up to 1890
o'clock, noon.
And in each instance the department
easily whipped the fight.
The fire in the English warehouse
at o'clock yesterday morning was the
most dangerous blaze of the year, but
was we'll handled
Capt. g. P. Hammond arose at 4
O'Clock yesterday morning to take a
train, and saw the blaze in the ware
house yard He quickly telephoned
the alarm, and within three minutes
the department was on the scene, ready
for business with four fine streams
The burning cotton, ten bales, were
extinguished in short order.
Many bales lay in the open yard near
the burning cotton, and but for the
early discovery of the fire and prompt
work q serious confsgration would
have resulted
The fire originated in one of three
bales sen: to the warehouse at dusk
the day before, and perhaps smoldered
all night. The heavy timbers forming
the platform where it lay were burned
away Four bales were partly burned
and six others scorched.
The cotton was probably afire when
brought to the warehouse.
Fortunate it was that Capt. Ham
mond saw the blaze in time, and that
the fire department SCOT there" as it
does always.
The second alarm yesterday morning
came at II o'clock and was sent in from
the Americus OIL Co.'s plant. Fire
started at the ginnery department and
was probably caused by spark in the
cotton. Here, too, good work was
done by the fire fighters.
The blaze was kept out of the press
room and soon extinguished, the loss
being very slight.
Church Fired BY Spark.
Tue fifth fire for the twenty four
hours ending at noon yesterday was at
GuO lI5b OuuECu Vi OuElSbs OCl6uGASb
A stray spark ignited some straw lodg-
ed under the roof and it was soon burn
ing fercely. But the weary fremen
went at it.
The blaze was dangerous one as a
stiff breeze was blowing.
After hard work this fifth fire, like
the others, was extinguished, though a
half hour later it broke out afresb, ne
cessitatins a second trip of the ladder
truck and extinguisherg to the rescue.
The church indeed had a close call
from ruin.
The damage vas principally to the
roof and interior walls. The church
had but recently been greatly i'm
proved, and the damage is reg retted by
the members and their frieUds.
