EIGHTEEN Z LIED
IN CHURCH PANIC
Cry of ''F'ire' Causes Negro COngre-
CATION at Philadelphia. to
Rush to Exit.

Philadelphia, Jan. ga wild panic
following a loud shrek of fire"
brought death to eighteen colored per-
sons and injuries to nearly two score
of others in st. Pauls Baptist church,
on the west side of Eighth street be-
tween Poplar street and Girard ave
nue.. The terrible rush to gain the
street was of brief duration, and that
more were not killed in the stampede
was probably due to the fact that the
church was not crowded.
At the time the disaster occurred not
more than 800 persons were on the
second floor of the building, which,
with the gallery, was capable of ac-
commodating 600 to 700. The fire was
a trif1ing one and was extinguisbed
before the firemen arrived. The smell
of smoke added to the panic and
despite the heroic work the Rev.
r. w. Johnson, the paste of the
church, who tried in vain to allay the
fears of the frightened worshipers,
the terror-stricken people made a des
perate rush to leave the church, only
to be chicken up on the narrow stair
way. Those in the rear leaped over
the PROSTATE forms of those who fell,
and when the rush was over eighteen
lay dead on the first floor and stairs
of the building.

Sources for the Benefit of
Our Readers.

Beloit, Wis, Jan. 23.-The breaking
of the dyke of the old Brooks mill in
the eastern part of the city Sunday
poured great food of water out
against many houses in the neighbor-
hood, and made many families take
hasty retreat for higher ground, or re-
main prisoners in their homes until
relief could be taken to them, and
many houses at the east end Of Broad
street and the tract known as Athletic
park are still inundated. The loss is
greater than was at first supposed, as
many cellars are full of water. running
everything that is in them and putting
out the furnace fires, and the current
is cutting gullies in the street ana
yards in the neighborhood of the
broken dyke.
The city authorities are endeavoring
to stop the flow of water in the race,
which will free the streets from trou-
BILE. The mill race has not been in use
for a long time. and the parties who
own it reside in Chicago. The stage Of
Rock river at this DoiDC is reNeding,
and the threatened trouble appears to
be over.

English Names.

Puzzling enough to an American is
the English fashion Of spelling name
one way and pronouncing it in quite
another, but the cities are even worse
than the individuals, since they deliber
ately adopt some alias. The town of
Hull, for instance, is Kingston-on-H.al
1t has no official recognition as any
thing else, yet as Hull it is known tC
nine out of ten, who would wonder if
KingstOn-onH was near the town of
Hull should they hear it mentioned
Even supposedly respectable cathedral
towns are not above hiding identity,
and to call New Sarum Salisbury is
to give it it's alias. The royal town of
Windsor is really New Windsor, and
the county of Hampshire popularity
shortened to Hants, is in reality the
county OF Southampton. Bradford-by
the-Sea is more correctly Morecambe,
but rightly Poulton lie Sande. while
BridlingtOn, sometimes called Burling-
ton, is more popularity Wakefield-by-the-
Sea.
