Virginia Students on Trail.

The action of these men, each of
whom wore an American flag in his
buttonhole, caused the great audience
to thunder its applause of approval.
In the afternoon meeting, which was
attended by only 5000 people, similar
example of group trail-hitting was
rewarded with just such spontaneous
applause. Then the trail-hitters were
twenty-five young men. the entire
membership of delegation of students
from Richmond College. Richmond Va.
They hardly waited for the evangelist g
invitation before they were on their
feet: and they were piloted to the plat
form by the Rev. DR.. Henry NJ. Whar-
ton, pastor Of Brantly Baptist Church,
Baltimore The total number of trail
hitters in the afternoon was 60; for the
day. 253.
The grand total of attendance for
the campaign is now 615.500 Collections
Thursday. announced yesterday. were
81, 006 TO- bringing the total to $27.399. 81.
1t Is not improbable that last nights col
lections which will be announced to-
day, set a new record.

AUGUSTA, GA, DECLINES
OFFERS OF OUTSIDE AID
City Rapidly Returning to Normal
After Big Fire of Wednes-
day Night.

AUGUSTA. Ca, March 25-Augusta
is rapidly returning to normal after
the big fire of Wednesday night. The
relief work, through a public welfare
committee. has been thoroughly sys-
tematized and more than $4,000 has
been raised to care for those in dis
tress. The forty tents placed in May
Park. with over 200 cots. have not had
a single occupant. the relatives and
friends of homeless people having
taken them in temporarily.
Augusta citizens have decided that If
$4,000 will be sufficient for relief work
the city will take care of the situa-
ton itself and not ask for outside aid.
The relief fund is growing rapidly.
Representative Wilson's offer to en-
deavor to get federal assistance was
declined, Mayor Littleton expressing
the appreciat ton of the city, but stat
ing that he did not think the money
would be necessary

Value Destroyed.

RICHMOND, Va. March 25.-News
was received here this morning from
Gloucester Court House of the destruc-
ton by fire early yesterday morning

Page family. the most noted house in
historic Gloucester county. An open
nre left burning all night in the dining
room is supposed to have caused it.
Judge Fielding Lewis Taylor and his
VIE and daughter. who occupied the
mansion. escaped half dressed. Some
silver. books and portraits were saved,
but much OF value, including Sir Peter
Lely's portrait Of Speaker Augustine
Warner and the ancient Abingdon par
ish register. were lost-a shock to
many families.
Roosevelt was built by Gov. Mann
Page in 1725-l730. Its foundation
walls were three feet thick. and the
building originally was prepared for
defensive purposes. 1t was large
high pitched brick house of three sto-
ries. basement and attic. so large that
Il fish pool formerly was kept in part
of the leaden roof.
The Taylors have gone to their
house, Belle Farm. to live. as Roosevelt
will not be rebuilt.
