finally a black gowned woman

Holland Tells of the
Great lroquois Fire

the girl next to me tainted and
then pandemonium broke loose.
The asbestos curtain descended
half way and fouled, and in al
most the twinkling of an eye the
flames swept under it and the the
alter was a living hell. My first
thought was to run down stairs,
warn the chorus girls and if pos
sible secure my personal effects.
I ran down the stairway under
the stage, and I heard the awful
commotion upstairs-the last eff
forts of hundreds Of souls-and
suddenly all became quiet save
the cracking Of the flames and
falling timbers. My escape was
neither thrilling nor dramatic,
nor do I wear a hero's laurels,
vet had I not retained my pres
ence of mind all might have been
different"
Mr. Holland will tell the audi
ence of his escape and also the
escape of the other members OF
the Blue Beard company at the
Auditorium Friday night.

Chauncey Holland, one Of the
members of the Myrkle-Harder
company, which is playing at the
Auditorium this week, was play
ing at the Iroquois theater at Chi
cago when the awful fire occurred
which resulted in the loss of over
600 lives. Mr.. Holland says:
eve were just going on in the
Pale Moonlight speciality, COM
posed of eight gentlemen and
eight ladies, which was consid-
cred the handsomest and costliest
speciality in the production. AS
we danced lightly down to the
footlights I noticed small tongue
of flame to my right in the first
right entrance. Having seen such
emergencies, we continued dane
ing and singing in order to at
tract the attention of the audi
ence from the blaze. Despite our
efforts and the blaring OF the
brass instruments, the audience
began moving uneasily, a few in
front stood up-a woman S
scream came firm the balcony,

The food of March, 1905, is all
over now but the cleaning out OF
houses, moving furniture and get
ting things into shape again for
living and business. The water
did not reach the height predict
ed. 1t was expected and predict
ed there would be over 80 feet
of water at Pittsburg, but % feet
was the highest point reached. AS
late as yesterday the Wheeling
papers were predicting Is feet ut

was general, but it dill not cause
the side streams to raise as much
as was expected, and then the AL

nongahela commenced to. raise,

Flood All Over But
the Cleaning Up

and we can all be thankful it was
no worse than it is.
Last night from 6 o'clock in the
evening until Z this morning the
river raised 51a inches by a mark
that was set inside of the Oil Re-
view office. By the way, it is very
handy to have the river in your
office you can keep record of
the rise and fall with hardly any
effort at all. It's great. The flood
did not do very much damage
here. Sistersville is located so
high that those who do live on
low ground can be taken care OF
and it's not much trouble to move
to high places to store goods.
Since the last food many houses
have been raised in the low
grounds, and the houses escaped
the annual wetting this time.
While a flood here is not pleasant
compared with other towns we
have but little to complain of.
The water was well up on the Of
flee food of the Oil Review, but
did not reach the floor on which
our bindery and machinery is To-
Gated, so we have no complaints
to make.
