Students Driven From
DormitOry By Flames

Sparks, Dec. 6. -Seventy-five
boys sleeping in the Hale dormi-
tory of the Sparks Collegiate in
stitute were driven from their
beds at 11:30 o'clock last night
by fire. Students from all Of the
buildings organized themselves
into fire companies to fight the
flames.
The dormitory was completely
destroyed. The boys succeeded
in saving most of their wearing
apparel and a portion of furni-
ture. Other buildings were
threatened but not damaged.
The building was a 25-room
frame structure, valued at ST, 900.
The loss is partly covered by in
surance. Origin of the fire is
not known.

tonight:
"All of the boys saved their
trunks. They have been provid-
ed homes and the school work
will go right on without the loss
of a recitation.
THE fire seems to have origi-
mated from a defective fue."
But for the fact that there was
a night Waterman on duty it is
believed that two of the young
men would have persisted in the
flames. as they were hard to
awaken.
