SORROW and Regret
MANY PEOPLE VIEW THE RUINS
OF ST. THOMAS CATHOLIC
CHURCH.

That the burning of the st. Thorn
as Catholic church last night was a
loss keenly felt by all residents of
Madison was evidenced by the num-
Der of citizens who braved the sharp
north wind to view the ruins today.
That it was not idle curiosity that
called them to the scene of the con-
flagration was evident by the many
expressions of sorrow and regret that
were heard on every hand.
The church was, without a doubt,
the most beautiful and costliest in the
city, and is now a mass of charred
timbers and twisted steel. The pipe
organ, the only n in the city,
is a total loss, falling from its loft
long before the great steeple came
crashing to earth and now lies in the
basement, burned beyond recognition
and covered with debris.
The fire was the sole topic of con-
versation in the city today. Little
groups of men could be found in ev-
cry business house, with the fire as
their sole subject of conversation, and
hundreds of people visited the scene
| of the fire during the day.
Many were the conjectures as to
the cause of the fire, any n OF
which may have been right. The
cause will probably never be posi-
lively known. The fire no doubt had
gained great Roadway before being
discovered, for persons who tried to
go in the front door soon after the
alarm had been turned in were forced
TO turn back on account of the dense
smoke which filled the entire build
ing.
The firemen are to be commended
for the fight they made against great
odds and under heavy handicap. They
were forced to take up their hose and
relay 1t, connecting to a hydrant two
blocks further away on account OF
the hydrant at the corne Of VanEpps
avenue and Third street N. w. being
frozen.
The following card of sympathy
was handed in by Rev. L. L. Mann, Of
the First Baptist church, with a re-
quest for publication:
1T is with keen regret that we
hear of the great loss sustained in
the total destruction of the beautiful
house of worship of the Catholic peo'
pie of our city. Such a building is q
credit to any city and its loss is felt
by all. Moreover, a large part Of our
people are thereby left without q
church home. We, the pastor, and
people Of the First Baptist church
og Madison would extend III sincere
sympathy to the priest and people OF
the stricken congregation"

LONDON. March 6.-Ofhcial an

today that the British armed mercantile
cruiser Calgarian was torpedoed ana
sunk on March 1. Two officers and for

The Allan liner Calgarin was YES

Glasgow in 1914.
There are no published records OF

service of the British government me
last report given out concerning the
liner was in April, 1916, when she sailed
from Halifax for England with Cana
dian troops.
A most unusual circumstance in con-
nection with the sinking of the Calgarlan
is the fact that she was struck by rour
torpedoes. SO far as published reports
have shown, in no previous case has
merchantmen been subjected to such
heavy attack by submarines. Evidently
the Germans concentrated U-boats to
insure the sinking of the liner.
