alarm was sent in. Before the Uni
versity boys could bs aroused and get
their band pulled chemical engines to
the scene Of the fire. the roof OF the
large building had fallen IN and the
others were masses of flames, so their
efforts we're directed to saving the
property on either side. BY hard work
on their part and some aid from q
bucket brigade, the buildings OF the
Sewanee Hardware Company to the
west of the others were kept from
burning The Brooks store was on
the main street of the village, just
next to the N /, G & St. l. railway
freight station. but this building is of
stone with tin roof, and was never In
great danger. Mr.. Brooks said that
the three bdGldings were valued about
$40, 600 and the stock Of goods at about
$i5, 900, and as far as he knew there
was only about $4,000 insurance.
There was no wind to aid the spread
of the flames, but the people living at
the other end of the block were terri
fed by the closeness of the fire, and
many of them started to move their
belongings. This is probably the
worst fire Sc vance has suffered In sew
eral years. It Is not known what the
plans fol rebuilding are.

DEMOCRATIC
CONVENTION
SIDEL|GHTs

One of the most interesting fea-
lures Of the recent Democratic con-
yention at st. Louis is the fact that 1t
took lovely woman to force the only
roll call demanded on the national
platform, as well as to inspire the
only real excitement that marked the
convention.
"Votes for Women" was the issue
that stirred up things. The Mexican
plank, nailed in at the last minute by
the platform builders, did not create
a ripple. "Americanism" and pre-
paredness" received polite ovations,
but it remained for the woman suf-
frage plank to start real fracas.
Headed by Gov. Ferguson of Texas,
the ants endeaYored to wrench the
suffrage plank from the platform. But
President Wilson's feelings on the
subject, as presented to the eonven-
ton by Senator Walsh of Montana,
were not to be ignored. And so, after
three-hour battle in which the term
political expediency" was used with
telling effect, the ants were routed
by vote of 1854 to 1914.
The vote, however, does not tell the
real story OF the battle. which was
one of the most vigorous and pic
turesque ever staged at national
Democratic convention. Fifteen wom-
en- delegates fought from the floor on
the side of the pro-suffragists, while
hundreds of their sisters waved yell
low pennants and. cheered them on
from the balconies. A thunderstorm
that almost drowned out the voices
of the delegates as they answered the
ron call brought both the suffrage
battle and the convention to most
melodramatic finish.
