4 PERSONS HURT
SAVING HORSES
FROM FIRE
Three Animals and Automobile
Lost in Incendiary Blaze at
Z
= College Park.

In an exciting fire, declared to have
been incendiary, in College Park early
today j. S. Martin, head of the Martin
Livery Company, and three other men
were badly burned in attempting to
rescue animals kept in his stables.
The city stables, the livery company's
quarters and a blacksmith shop were
destroyed. and three horses. a mule and
COW were burned to death. An amn-
mobile and a buggy were also de-
stroyed.
Marshal Creel today began hunt for
the incendiary tAe authorities feeling
certain that the Stables were set afire.
Fire Had Made Great Headway.
The blaze had made much headway
when the alarm was given, rousine the
residents of College Park from their
beds. When the volunteer fire fighters
arrived it was seen that it would be
hopeless to attempt to save the struc-
lures.
However, heroic effort was made to
save the animals, whose cries Of dis
tress could be heard as the flames
threatened them. One horse and two
mules were rescued. Several of the
animals burned were property of the
city. The COW and buggy lost be-
longed to DR.. c. M. Curtis, and the doc
tor today had to look for a new vehicle
in which to make his calls.
Near Death Trying to Save Animals.
In trying to save the horses which
were lost in the fire, Mr. Martin and
w E. Brewster were seriously burnah
about the hands and face. /. c. and
w. c. Curtis, proprietors Of the garage
which was destroyed, tried to get out
the automobile and came near losing
their lives. They escaped just In time
from the burning structure and have
burns on their hands and faces.
The total loss of the fire is estimated
by DR.. Curtis as $4,000 and he states
that there was no insurance on any of
the property involved. Several band
some residences were threatened, but
were saved by the volunteer fire de-
partment which turned its attentionHto
them when 1t was found impossible to
save the other structures.

J. WYLIE SMITH GIVEN
HIS FREEDOM; WILL
JOIN REBEL FORCES

JUAREz, MEXICO, Aug. ii. Wy
lie Smith, accused Atlanta embezzler,
has been released by General Pascual
Orozco. commander Of the Mexican
rebels, and is preparing to join the
army of Antonio Rojas. His release
was not conditional upon his taking up
arms against the Mexican government.
Smith has a happy faculty of making
friends. When the Mexican Masons
interceded for him the other day and
General Orozco ordered that Smith be
sent to his table for his meals, it did
not take the former Atlanta loan agent
long to make friends with the general,
whom he convinced that he was being
prosecuted.
AS Smith appeared i'll, Orozco or
dered him to be given his liberty, and if
the rebels triumph his extradition to
