Manassas, Va, December l5,-In the
burning OF the Prince William Hotci.
Manassas. this morning, suffered an
other distinct loss by fire What on
yesterday was one of the most modern
and best equipped country obstetrics
in the State Is to-day but a mass OF
smouldering ruins.
Fire was discovered issuing from the
roof OF the hotel building about $3.50
o'clock this morning, and although the
volunteer fire department of the town
had several streams Of water playing
on the structure within fourteen
minutes after the first alarm was
given, so rapid was the progress of the
blaze and so intense the heat that 1t
was but short while before the en-
tire building was a seething mass OF
flames.
AS soon as the fire was discovered,
w. r. Lucas. proprietor Of the hotel,
aroused the guests, fifteen in number.
and succeeded in getting them all out
of the building in safety. Some of
them, however, lid not have time to
secure their personal effects. Among
this number was the Rev. Mr.. Hatcher.
of Richmond, who was on his way to
Upperville, Fauquier county to be with
Rev. l. b. Lake. D. D., in the celebra-
ton of the latter's golden wedding.
Dr.. Hatcher escaped, partly, clad. from
the doomed building, and was COM
PEELED to purchase wearing apparel
before he could resume his journey
this morning. He lost his suit case.

other garments.
The Prince William was built about
six years ago by Robert Portner, at a
cost of $4,000 1t was conducted as
hotel by the Portners until liquor
was voted out of the town, wnen they
closed the building. Last year the
property was purchased from the Port
ner estate by Eastern College and was
used by that institution as girls

After the completion OF Eastern's Vor.
hees Hall, the hotel property was
rented to w. r. Lucas, former pro-
prietor of the Warren Green Hotel,
/ Warrenton. Mr.. Lucas opened the
| place again as a hotel October 10 last,
and was doing a successful business.
| Manassas had one other hotel. thd
| Victor. but this was closed shortly
after the Prince William was opened

sas to-day has no hotel. There is some
! talk OF stock company being formed
/ TO erect another modern hotel building
on the Prince William site.
Eastern College has s22.5Oo insur-
ance, 100000 on the building and S2,250
on the furniture and hotel fixtures
! Mr.. Lucas's loss will be about $1,000
partly covered by $500 insurance.

ORPHAN HOUSE BURNED.
4. Most Pathetic Sight Witnessed by
Baptist Convention.

The cause Of Connie Maxwell Or
phanage was presented to the Bap-
tIst State Convention at Laurens
Thursday In a most striking manner,
end the response was most hearty
and sincere. That morning twenty
four little girls came from the Or
phanage at Greenwood and were pre-
sented to the Convention, while Su-
pcrintendent Jamison was speaking
VI the work at that splendid instltu-
tion, and many eyes were wet with
tears when he concluded.
Within an hour afterwards, DR..
.ramdson again took the platform
and announced that he had just
learned by phone that the Conven-
ton building at the Orphanage was
totally destroyed by fire Thursday
morning, but that no n of the in
mates was injured.
DR.. Jamison left at once for
Greenwood, but Thursday afternoon,
the Convention took up the matter
and in q few minutes subscriptions
aggregating more than $4,000 were
secured to replace the burned build
ing. Work will begin at once. The
Turned building was erected with
funds raised at the Convention OF
1902, and was valued at $4,000, with
insurance for half the amount.

HELD UP BY A BEAR.
Strange Hishap That BefeH an Au-
tomobile Party.

A W~eaverville, N. c., letter says as
". A. Goetz was automobiling with
some women friend 8 on Sunday
night the party was held up by a
monster black bear on the road from
that place to Douglas City. AS they
founded a point the headlights re-
vealed a startling bruin, who reared
up on his hind feet and snarled de-
Glance.
Goetz, at the wheel. attempted to
turn aside and drive around the
beast. AS he turned of the beast
road a forewheel dropped into a hole
and the axle snapped. It was i'm
and the axle snapped. 1t was i'm
7 cssible to move the car forward or
backward. The women screamed.
After the bear had gazed in wonder
ment at the strange spectacle for a
few minutes he ambled off into the
bushes on the mountain-side.
A second auto party on the way
from Douglas City to Weaverville
Kicked up Goetz and his friends a
lew minutes later and conveyed
them out Of the bear zone. .

Speedy Cure.
DR.. ]. ]. Lindsay, of Spartanburs.
has aroused much interest ameng
the medical fraternity Of that city
by telling of excellent results obtain
ed in q typhoid fever cass through
q new treatment. Serum was in
iected after the fever had reached
a very serious stage and It caused
almost immediate improvement.
II this treatment proves as enec-
tual in future cases it will prove It.
self to be one Of the great discov-
cries of modern medicine. The SER
I'M treatment has been used in cases
cf erysipelas and possibly one or
two other diseases, but so far as
n known has lever been used In a
typhoid fever case before.
The patient was a boy of Is years
whose sister had recovered from ty-
ptoid fever early in summer and
whose younger brother had succumb-
cd to the disease about q week be-
fore DR.. Lindsay took hold Of the
case. At this time the patients
temperature was 103 and was rap
idly rising. By constant use of ice
baths the temperature was prevent
ed from exceeding 104 on the three
following days.
At seven o'clock on the afternoon
OF the third day 300,000,000 dead
typhoid germs were injected into the
system. Three hours later there
was an evidence of reaction and the
patient began to complain Of a pain
near the heart and one-eight Of a
grain Of morphine was injected, az
ter which the patient said that he
felt much better.
AT 10 o'clock in the morning Of
the following day the temperature
was 104, and by evening had fallen
to 101 IL. The next morning the
temperature was 100, and two days
later was normal. There is no doubt,
Dr. Lindsay said, but that the serum
treatment has a scientific effect. He
said that next time, however, he
would not use as many dead typhoid
germs as 300, 100000.
