BLAZE CUTS
WHEREFORE
DORMITORY
OHIO SCHOOL SADDENED
AS MOST HISTORICAL
BUILDING GOES UP
IN SMOKE.

WILBERFORCE. O.. Dee u
Shorter Hall at Wilberforcc GniverS-
it. was completely destroyed by fire,
Wednesday night December 9TH
From an investigation on the part of
the authorities at the University, and
also on the part OF the State Fire Mar
shalTs Office, it appears that the fire
must have started from defective wir-
ing in the attic OF the north wing OF
the building. The fire was discovered
by students who were returning to- the
building from the weekly prayer serv-
ice which was conducted at Galloway
Hall, at the other side of the campus.
President ]. A. Gregg, who con-
Quoted the prayer meeting, and Secre-
tary Jenkins who lives directly across
from the building, were the first off
cials in the building after the alarm
was sounded They directed the few
boys who were already striving to put
out the FIRE. They were soon Joined
by Superintendent Berry, Bishop !.
II. Jones, Dean Jones. w. A. Ander-
son and other members OF the faculty
and friends from the neighborhood.
Had there been adequate fire fighting
apparatus at hand the building might
have been saved. Appeals for help
were sent to nearby towns but none
would respond, and the authorities at
Xenia, the nearest town when called
upon, refused to come.
Everything possible was done to
save the building, and when it finally
became certain it was doomed, the
boys were directed to save whatever
they could. Very little was salvaged,
however, which left a total loss OF sew
eral thousand dollars, and two hundred
boys without homes, and many OF
them without clothing.
Superintendent Berry and Dean
Woodson very generously threw open
the doors of their departments, and a
committee called by President Gregg,
including Bishop Jones and the heads
of departments, was able to plan on
the housing of students and the care
of the College Department, whose class
rooms were on the first floor of Short
er.
Mr.. II. E. Schmidt of Xenia was in-
strumental in getting Governor Davis
to send one hundred cots and two
hundred blankets to President Gregg,
to be distributed to the young men
whose bedding was lost in tn confa-
grafton. The local Red Cross unit
under Miss Schaeffer has offered aid,
and the people generally are doing all
possible to care for the wants of the
students.

MuTdere' Mans Kin
DisSua Mob Members
Murdered Man Kin Dissuade Mob
Members

DYERSBCRG. Tenn, Dec. 10
Sheriff H. p Bryant prevented a
lynching here OF five men alleged to
be concerned in the murder OF r. L.
Burkctt, white farmer, About 500
people comprised the mob. Ono Of
the men, VIII Niggins, was reported
to have confessed the killing. but the
sheriff in addressing the mob said he
had evidence that Wiggins was eight
miles from the scene OF the crime the
night it occurred The sheriff also
took five oi the apparent leaders OF the
mob in an automobile to the home of
relatives OF the murdered man. The
relatives assured the mobbists that the
murdered mans family did not approve
OF mob action. The sheriff's action
was effective in preventing the lynch
ing, but it is noticeable that he did
not arrest the FIVE men whom he had
in his automobile. If the Dyer Anti
Lynching bill were law, this sheriff
would be subject to imprisonment for
not more than years, and fined not
more than $4,000 or both, for failing
to prosecute persons participating i'll
a mob or riotous assemblage.
