AUDIENCE SAVED FROM HURT
COOL FoRETHOUGHT PREVENTS
A PANIC.
Herald Square Theater in New York
Emptied Before Building Breaks
Into Flames.

NEW YORK. December 23.-The Herald
Square Theater was virtually destroyed
last night by fire that started from de-
fective insulation in the electric sign in
the front of the theater. just as Bessie
Mccoy had started to sing the last verse
of the wanna Yama" song, near the end
of the show.
On account of the admirable GOODNESS
of one employee in directing the work of
the chorus and the members of the COM
pany when the theater was found to be
ablaze. every one in the audience and on
the stage got out before most of them
knew the place was burning.
The fire was first seen at 1876 o'clock.
The offices Of the theater are even with
the balcony floor, and just behind the big
electric sign Manager Hyams noticed a
Wisp of smoke curling into the Office, and
told Treasurer Roy Long to run down and
take charge Of things.
Orchestra Leader Notified.
Long got down to the orchestra pit in a
jiffy and told the orchestra leader that
there was small fire in the front of the
place. but that no one was in danger If
each person connected with the manage
ment of the house did his share. The
leader was told to keep on playing and
take his cue from the stage.
Manager Hyams had hustled back to
the stage and told the members of the
company who were not on that it was
necessary for them to go out the stage
door as soon as they could do so with
out exciting the audience. AS soon as
Miss Mccoy had finished the verse the
curtain went down and the orchestra
kept on playing as if the show were over.
When the lights went up all over the
house the audience, consisting of 1,SOO
persons. commenced to file out, without
| knowing the conditions.
No Confusion or Crowding.
When the audience was about half out
| of the theater the smell of smoke had
begun to be So strong that persons in the
| balcony surmised the trouble. There was
no confusion on account of crowding from
above. When the persons not yet out
| found that there was a fire they merely
asked the persons ahead of them to move
| as fast as they could. Every one ap-
peared to be looking out for the safety OF
| every one else.
BY the time the crowd was all out and
| the tiremen had arrived. the theater was
| so filled with flames and smoke that i,
seemed impossible for the firemen to save
| the building.
The members of the Three Twins
company were quickly taken into the
Herald Square Hotel. On account of the
severity Of the weather the members OF
the company who were in tights suffered
greatly from the cold. The Shuberts con-
troll the theater.
