So F|REMEN
ARE OVERCOME
BY SMOKE IN n Y.

New York. May 15.-Sixty firemen, prac-
tically every man in seven fire companies.
were overcome with smoke in lghting a
fire in the Remington Typewriter building
on Broadway yesterday. More than a
score OF the men were taken to hospitals,
where 16 OF them remained last night.
1t was one OF the hardest fights New
York firemen have had and never was
there more bravery shown among the
fire fighters. The fire was in the sub-base-
ment OF the building and never got above
that level. yet for more than two hours
the men fought desperately. and but for
the heroism shown many would have lost
their lives
Splendid service was rendered by the
scores OF young women employed In the
building where the fire was and in nearby
offices These girls, directed by the am
bulance surgeons, knelt on the sidewalks
and assisted I'm bringing the unconscious
firemen back to life. Janitors' wives in
nearby buildings dragged the bedding
and mattresses from their beds down to
the street TO make resting places for the
men who were overcome. Priests from
nearby churches and fire department
chaplains aided materially in the work OF
assistance
The money loss was only $4,000.

Commencement
EXERCISES
At The Lindsay.WiIsOn College
Covering a Period Of Sew.
eral Days.

The closing of the Lindsay Wilson,
extending through period of several
days, and embracing entertainments,
debate and graduating exercises closing
out last Monday, scored the most pros
porous school year in the history of
Columbia. The school opened last Fall,
with an increased enrolment, and kept
up good ratio of gain over any pre-
ceding year. Not only has advance
ment been made in increased numbers
of students, but in good solid work and
finish, it has recorded its best period.
The Recital last Friday evening, by
the pupils of Miss Penland assisted by
the pupils of Miss Meek, drew a good
audience, who enjoyed the rendition of
the entire programme, showing marked
improvement over the the preceding
year. The programme was short, we'll
selected and perfectly rendered.
On Saturday evening the pupils of
Miss Meek's class were assisted by the
pupils of Miss Penland. On that occa-
sion the large hall was crowded, and
many could not get standing room and
returned to their homes somewhat dis
appointed. The readings by the young
ladies proved that they not only
possess rare talent, but that they have
had efficient training. This was as true
in the music as well as in the elocution
department. On Sunday the Bacca-
laureate sermon was preached by Rev.
A. R. Kasey, and it was masterful
address, appropriate and stimulating.
On Monday the graduating exercises
began at o'clock. The class consisted
of eight five young ladies and three
young gentlemen, the ladies reading
essays, and the young men delivering
orations, all acquitting themselves in a
highly satisfactory manner to the fac
ulty and the audience. After a short
recess, Rev. A R. Kasey delivered the
commencement address, the subject
being Increase of nowledge and Ev.
olution of Mind" A short address was
made by Prof. Nelson, after which he
presented the diplomas. Not eulogizing,
but speaking the plain truth, we can
state that this community takes pride
in the good work done by the instruct
ors in every department. There is
not doubt that the school is much
stronger to-day. and more thoroughly
appreciated than at any other time.
The graduating class is composed of
Misses Mary Cartwright, Nina Marcum,
Lura Smith, Mary Williams, Mabel
Willingham. Messrs. Raymond Evans,
Arnie Glasgow and Robert Todd.

CONCRETE WALK.
Progressive Action by the City
Council Agreed Upon Last
Thursday Night.

The Council passed an ordinance at
its last regular meeting on Thursday
night, that uniform concrete walk
should be made in front of all property
on the public square. For many
months this has been considered, but
now it is the law AS we understand IT.,
four months time will be given in which
this must be done. So far as we have
heard, every person is willing to obey,
and within the time given, the walk
will be made. The Council has under
consideration, the making of a walk
along the edge of the cemetery on the
Campbellsville pike. In justice to that
part of town this should be done. The
walk would also add to the appearance
of the cemetery. More than likely at
the next meeting of the Council an or
der will be made for the building Of
side walks on several of the streets
leading out from the public square.
There will be something done in Column
bia this year.

ERECTED.
Simms and Hall, of Columbia, We're
Successful BidderS-=WOrk to
Be Finished in October.

Last week Messrs Simms and Hall, of
this city, contracted to do the brick
work for the Russell Springs Banking
Company, D. Wilson and Son and F. L..
Wilson, all of Russell Springs. All the
buildings will be two story high, and
all join in partition walls. The bank
building will be Is by 60 feet, while the
others will be rs by 80 feet, and will be
used for general merchandise. The
work is to be completed by the
first of October. 1907. When this
block of business houses are erected it
will add materially to the business ap-
pearance of that thrifty little city, and
will lead to other similar structures.
Already others have under consideration
similar buildings, and it is highly prob
able that the above contractors will
contract for one or more good buildings
within a short time.

INTELLECTUAL FEASi FOR STUDENTS.

| term it fortunate indeed to have
had the opportunity of listening to such
an excellent sermon as the one deliver
ed by the Rev A. R. Kasey at the
Methodist church last Sunday forenoon.
1t was the commencement sermon of
tn Lindsay Wilson Training School and
was especially appropriate to the occa-
sion, and suited to the minds of the
large number of students present.
The subject chosen for text by Rev.
Kasey as the basis of his remarks was,
"What is man that God should be mind
full of him." according to the scriptures
man is little lower than the angels, or
as the revised version has it little lower
than God. The speaker brought out
many beautiful instances .iwhere - God

FACTORY SITE ACQUIRED
Manner, Dunbar & Co., Purchase
Tract on Harrison Street.

Manner, Dunbar & Co., have pur-
chased from M. Quinn for $1,000 cash,
tract of land fronting on Tenth Ave-
nue. and Harrison street. The sale was
effected by w. w. Scovel and the. Da-
Wis., ockrill- Finegan Real Estate Co.
The plans of Manner, Dunbay & Co.,
are not yet in shape for announcement,
but the site is admirably adapted to
manufacturing purposes, and it is not
improbable that shoe factory will be
erected. Manner, Dunbar & Co., are
now located in the Shelton block on the
public square, and do large jobbing
business in shoes.
The tract acquired fronts 318 feet on
Tenth Avenue, and 234 feet on Harrison
street. A side track or spur from the
Nashville Terminal Co.'S, belt line
runs through the tract to Harrison
street.
]. S. Dunbar, of the firm, stated
Wednesday that his firm was not yet in
position to make definite announce
ment of the company's plans, but that
within the next thirty days the plans
would be in shape for presentation to
the public Nashville paper.
Mr.. Dunbar, of the above firm, was
born and reared in Russell county, and
enjoys large acquaintance in this part
of the State, and his many friends will
be glad to hear of the thrift and enter
drise of his firm.

made its first effort to cheer the
cause of temperance, by furnishing
some stirring music for the temper
ance rally in Edmonton. ED. 2. T.
Williams and Gov. j. R. Hindman. of
Columbia, were both there, and made
speecher that showed their zeal and
earnestness for 70 hi bi tion. There
were other speakers, and one in partic-
ular, we are told, that measured the
depth of horror caused by the sale and
use of whiskey, and whose logic was
almost overwhelming. 1t was a great
meeting and intense earnestness was
manifested, but all seemed to enjoy the
day. The band bows were delighted
with the treatment they received, and
overjoyed at the reports made in favor
of prohibition at that time.

JACOB MILLER DEAD.

The death of Mr.. Jacob Miller, at
his home near Columbia, last Tuesday
the 18th, removed one of our honest,
upright citizens. For several months
Mr.. Miller had been in feeble health.
Mr.. Miller came from Russell count I
a few years ago and bought farm
three miles west of Columbia on the
Glasgow road. By his industry and
uprightness of living he soon had the
confidence and esteem of the people
who knew him. Mr.. Miller was a I'm
ion soldier, but regardless Of the way
ne fought, he held to his original polit-
ical views being strong believer in
Democratic principles. To his wife and
children who survive, The News ex-
tends sympathy believing as above
stated that good upright, honest citi-
zens has been laid to rest.

killed an old mink and brought two of
the young ones to town They fell into
the hands of Mr.. George Rosenield who
took them home and gave them to his
cat. Instead of devouring them she took
one at time and carried them to the
box where her kittens were and imme-
diately adopted them. She is taking
the same care of the little minks as she
gives to her two kittens. When they
were received their eyes had
not opened but now they see and romp
and fare on equal terms with the young
felines.
