Boston, Mass, November 25-At
least six persons are missing and two
others are dying in the Metcalf hos
pital as the result of fire which
broke out early today at Winthrop
Beach, a shore resort in the surlburbs
of Boston. Young's hotel, a $50, 600
building, and several cottages were
destroyed.
The fire was not yet under control
at late hour today.
Several summer cottages on the
boulevard adjoining the hotel are in
flames. So suddenly did the Ire break
out that the few guests still in the
hotel had little chance to escape. One,
a boy, John C. Boggs, jumped from a
third story window, and was injured.
Others also jumped.
The Boggs boy is thought to have
been the only person on the third
floor to escape.
The hotel is destroyed There were
twenty-five guests in the building.
The Boggs boy is probably fatally
injured. His skull was fractured and
be suffered serious burns. His mother
who also jumped from a window. is
at the Metcalf hospital, and probably
will live. She fractured both legs in
her fall.

College.
BapiSiS Of Georgia Are Lined Up for
Battle Over the Removal PROPOSE
ton. The Atlanta Brethren Are
After the Prize.
Especial to Times-Recorder. }

Atlanta, GA, November 25.-The pro-
posal to remove Mercer University
from Macon to Atlanta, if persisted in,
as it appears now it will be, is going
to bring on one of the hardest fights
ever witnessed between two Georgia
cities. There is no special love lost
between them as cities now and this
contest will only make things worse
The fact that it is a fight in which
the Baptist preachers of each city are
aligned against each other is not IN
any wise calculated to soften it's bit
terness.
The arguments for removal seems
to be that the institution is cramped
in Macon and there is no room for il
to spread; that there is plenty OF
room in Atlanta and this city could
prove a better vantage point conduc-
ing to larger attendance and greater
growth.
Macon disputes all these points and
shows where Mercer will have to re-
linquish property wor tn a quarter oi
million dollars if it is taken away
from the Central City.
The ministers all know that and
have informed Atlanta in a gener il
way that this city will have to furnish
a spacious site and $25OOO0 in cash
if the Institution is to come here
But if the Atlanta Chamber of Com
merce should decide that the game wa:
worth a quarter of a million candle
it would go into the fight and get the
cash all right
1t is not often that two sister cities
engage in a fight of this kind. 1t no
infrequently happens that two or more
of them will go out after some new
institution that is proposed, but it
seldom happens that one of them tries
to take away a thing that another al
ready has.
When that sort of an effort is made
there is sure to be a howl. Of course
Atlanta will put it off on the ministers;
they are doing it but that the city itself
will lend a strenuous helping hand
there is no question.

Three 'possums and a coon were

nesday next in the selection of mayor,

primary in recent years.
And it would seem to reflect the in

now pending.
Municipal ownership is the slogan
and the two tickets favoring and op-
posing same, will be supported blythe
respective sides
The registration for this election is
heavier than anticipated by either OF
the opposing political factions here

Under the order of the City Demo
cratic Executive Committee, the regis
tration list is finally and officially
closed, and only those whose names
appear thel con can vote.
There will be no issuing of certif
Gates On election day
The voters of Americus have had
due and full notice of registration, and
if there are any Indifferent ones, or
laggards, whose names are left off the
list the fault is wholly their own and
none other is to blame
The very unsatisfactory and unbuq-
iness-like plan of permitting mum
bers of delinquents to come in ana
register, even up to the hour of clos
ing the polls on election day is no
longer countenanced. All have had
abundant opportunity to register, and
thus qualify themselves to vote.
Both the political factions here are
now canvassing the voters list, and
the supporters of the two opposing
city tickets will put forth every eff
fort to secure the majority of citizens
entitled to vote.
