TWO SCORE HURT IN
ORANGEBURG FIRE
Burning OF DOrmitOry at State C0lGrcd
College Inflicts Very
Serious Blow.

The State.
Orangeburg, March 20.-TWo teach
ers and A students were injured in
jumping from the burning building
when Badham hall, girls dormitory
at the State Colored college, was de-
stroyed by fire early this morning. The
fire was the greatest in the history OF
Orangeburg. All the physicians Of
Orangeburg and many trained nurses
hurried to the scene and the home Of
President Wilkinson was converted
into temporary hospital.
Matte J. Beattiste, Charleston, a
teacher, suffered injuries that result
ed in both legs being broken and ribs
fractured. She is probably the most
most seriously injured, but her
chances for recovery are good. Julia
Mae Williams was the other teacher
injured. The injuries Of the students
consisted o. broken legs, broken arms,
fractured ans and legs, broken ankles
and sprained ankles, wrenched backs,
cuts, bruises and broken ribs. All
the injured will recover.
In the buildings were 800 girl STU
dents and several teachers. Besides
as dormitory, a portion OF this build
ing, being the arst floor OF one wing
Of the dosmitorY, vas used for ad-
ministration purposes. It was in these
Offices that the fire originated.
The origin Of the FIRE is unknown.
The night watchman had passed this
dormitory and registered at the clocA
five. minutes before the fire was dis
covered. From the great headway i'm
mediately gained by the fire, work OF
incendaries may be expected. The
president states that he has been un-
able to discover the origin Of the Ere.
The first girl awakened saw flames
eating away the door to her room.
She gave the alarm. In that portion
of the dormitory stairway escape was
impossible, as the first floor was a
mass of flames. The only escape for
the many girls in that section O: the
building was to jump. The result
was appalling. Forty-six we're badly
injured, a of whom were seriously
hurt.
The building destroyed, with the
furnishings was worth about $4,000,
over which there was insurance
amo.'nring t5 $4,000. Just as soon
as the al..vpl was given, all Of the
doors we're opened, except those in
the midst OF The fames. The students
came out orderly and safely except in
tie quarter tha; vas cut OF and
jumping was Te3olted to. The build.
ing was a modern brick structure,
steam heated throughout. The work
Of ". S. Wilkinson, president OF the
college, was highly commendable. He
has managed the institution since the
fire in an admirable manner.
College work will go on uninter-
rupted, just as soon as rearrange-
ment can be perfected this week. The
girls of the college will be quartered
in the dormitor:es 6: C,afin univer-
sity, which adjoins the State colored
college. There are ample class
rooms, and the dining room and kitc1-
en- were not destroyed, although in
close proximity to the destroyed
building. Nearly all the girl students
are destitute of clothes, but this ne
cessity is being met with assistance
from Orangeburg people and parents
o. the students.

The Down. and Cutters.

Frank L. Copeland, forger of
Summit county, Ohio, will be re-
leased Christmas eve from Ohio
penitentiary and Christmas day
will enter Moody Bible institute,
Chicago, for training as an evan
gelist. IN carry my message

the rest of my life reforming
down-and-outers. Four terms be-
hind prison walls have taught me

wants less sympathy and a fight
ing chance-a square deal-and
I'm going to try to have society
give it to him. The saloon is the
cause of sin and poverty, and I'll
fight the dirty cesspool until it is
driven back to hell, where it be-
longs.
Asquare deal for the down and
cutters! Being bounded by min
ions Of the law isn't a square deal;
refusing work to a man because
of something that has happened
in the past and which should be
wiped from the slate when hepaid
for it with his liberty that isn't
a square deal. A new treatment
of down-and-outers and ex-con-
victs is one of the needs of today.
Let US not forget the sfflictions
which oppressed the little Babe
born in the manger at Bethlehem
nineteen centuries ago. Copeland

A Woman's Suggestion.

I have suggestion for the married
man who cannot get along without
Intoxicating liquor. Let him start n
saloon in his own home. He'll have
no license to pay, Tell him to give
his wife 81 to buy gallon of whisk-
ey, There are SO in a gallon. Let
him buy drinks from no one except
his wife, and by the time the first
gallon Is gone she will have IS to put
in the bank and 80 to start in bust
ness with again. Should he live 10
years, continuing to buy his liquor
from her, at bis death she will have
enough money to provide good bur
ial for him, educate her children, buy
house and lot and marry a decent
