SAN ANTONIO is GOOD.
Not Single Arrest For Drunkenness
There Last Sunday.

San Antonio, Texas, Dec. 29-With
aftidavits pending against two saloon
keepers for violating the Baskin-Mc-
Gregor law in keeping open their
places of business on Sunday, it is
expected that affidavits against others
will follow. Quite d number of sa-
looms were open on Sunday, but all of
these did not sell intoxicating liquors.
Some sold only soft drinks. and the
question has come up if the proprie-
tors of these would be guilty of vio-
lating the law AS the result of the
of the law Sunday is an
quiet and orderly day in
San Antonio, as the police records
show. Last Sunday passed without
single arrest on Il charge of drunken
ness. the first on record, and the po-
lice had an unusually easy time of it.

seats in the house had been emptied
by the panic-stricken spectators. and
they were crowding through the exits
as fast as they could
When the smoke and flames poured
into the auditorium, sweeping the
whole interior, hundreds were over
come. They fell in heaps right at the
exits and were suffocated by the
heat and smoke. Those on top of the
pile We're scorched beyond recogni-
ton. The situation was greatly ag-
gravated by the fact that the ushers
fled for safety without stopping long
enough to unlock and unbolt the fire
exits provided for on every floor.
The spectators. finding the safety
exits bolted and locked, were COM
PEELED to seek release from the fiery
furnace behind them through the
main exits on the Randolph street
side. While crowded around these
exits during the jam they were over
powered by the smoke and flames and
persisted. Only few saved their
lives over the fire escape which they
reached from the balcony. The fire
was soon under control At first it
was not thought that the loss of life
had been great and the full extent of
the disaster was not realized until the
firemen reached the upper floors of
the house, where they found the dead
piled six or eight high, all headed for
the exits and those on top terribly |
burned. The scenes which followed

IMPRESSIVE CEREMONY
Marked the Dedication of Monu-
ment Erected In Honor of the
Iroquois Theatre Victims.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Chicago, H., Dec. 30.-The fifth
anniversary of the Iroquois Theatre
fire in this city was observed today
by the dedication of monument
erected in Montrose Cemetery by the
Iroquois Memorial Association in
memory of the six hundred victims
of the terrible catastrophe The mon
ument, which is handsome shaft of
granite, marks the burial place of the
one unknown woman who persisted in
the fire. The dedication was accom-
panied by impressive ceremonies. To-
night the annual memorial service for
the victims takes place in Willard
Hall, with addresses by Rev. Jenkin
Lloyd Jones and others.
The Iroquois Theatre holocaust was
the most appalling disaster of its kind
: in the worlds history. The fire orig
mated on the stage of the theatre dur
ing the matinee performance of De-
cember 80, 1903, at a time when ev
cry part of the house was crowded
with the usual holiday audience of
women and children. The theatre was
practically new, having been opened
only a few weeks previous to the
fire. The attraction was a .spectacu-
lar piece entitled "Bluebeard," which
had been running there since the
opening night. 1t is believed that
sparks from one of the spotlights ig-
nited some of the flimsy pieces of
scenery in the wings. and in a few
moments the blaze spread upward to-
ward the flies. Some of the actors
and stage employees tried to beat out
the flames, but did not succeed and
the signal was given to drop the fire
proof curtain
Owing to the fact that a rope, with
which the aerial ballot was manipu-
lated, had been SO fastened that it OBJ |
structed the movements of the cur
tain the latter could not be lowered |
for some time. When it was finally |
released, the fire had made such pro-
gress on the stage that the employees
became panic-stricken and opened the |
large double-door in the rear of the
stage, and leading to the court be-
hind the theater, through which the
scenery was brought into and out of
the theatre.
The terrific draft caused the as
bestos curtain to bulge out into the
auditorium. In a few minutes it tore

SUDDEN DEATH OF
W. CULLEN COOK

Word was received here yesterday
of the death of W. Cullum Cook, Super
intendent of the public schools of Mt.
Holly. The news comes as a great
shock to very many friends and rela-
tives here. Last night Mrs A j.
Ogden, a sister of Mr. Cook received
word that Mr.. Cook was seriously ill
and asked some of the relatives to
come at once. Mrs. Ogden left this
morning Word was received by tele-
phone that Mr.. Cook had died last
night at 10 O'Clock. There were no
particulars. Two weeks since Mr..
and Mrs. Cook went to Washington,
D. c., on tour. Letters received
here since their return indicated no
illness.
1t was learned later that Mr. Cook
had suffered from an attack of ap-
poplexy. This is probably the final
result of a fall upon an icy pavement
some three years ago. He has not been
robust since He leaves widow and
three children, Misses Edith and
Marion, and son, William.
Mr.. Cook is well known here. He is
brother of U. B. Cook and j. Fidel
Cook, and married Zella, a daughter
of the late Sheppard Marts, of Dividing
Creek, she being sister of Mrs. A. j.
Ogden and Mrs. W. Frank Tyler, of
this city.
For time Mr.. Cook taught in Cedar
vile. He was recognized as one of the
most successful and best equipped in
structors in the state. In Mt. Holly
where he has been for some time, he
has been highly esteemed and greatly
beloved
