CHICAGO RAILROAD
STATION IS BURNED
Chicago, Dec. 22.—Fire starting a
few minutes before 4 o’clock yester
day afternoon, destroyed the Dear
born Street Railroad station. Former
ly known as ths Polk Street Depot,
and left eight railroads homeless in
Chicago.
The building erected in 1884, was
valued at $300,000 but will cost more
than 1,000,000 to replace, it was said.
Within a little more than an hour
after a traffic policeman saw smoke
issuing from the roof, the flames
swept through the 38-year-old brick
and wood structure, once the prida
of railroad man, and left only
smokeblack brick shell behind.
Hundreds of passengers, and 200
;n and women clerks fled to safety.
Mrs. Hazel Locker, 28, a woman clerk
fainted and was trampled on by tha
wild rush of clerks from the upper
floor. A policeman found her lying
unconscious on tha stairs and carried
her out.
Postal clerks with motor trucks res
cued 160 tons of holiday mail and
railroad employes saved all can la
the train sheds. sf 't'itfii Li'”
The station wai Owned by the Chi
cago and Western Indians Railroad
/as used by trains of that line
and- the Santa, Fe, Monon, Erie,

Crossed wires ire believed to have
started ths fire. Within fifteen
minutes after the fire was discover
ed and while apparatus was still arriv
ing In response to a series of general
alarms, the roof of the north wing
fell in.
As the swirling columns of fire
wrapped around the tall clock tower,
nearly 260 feet above the street, hun
dreds of pigeons deserted their nest.

The firemen were hampered by
poor water pressure and the crowds
of Christmas shoppers. Their streams
barely reached the base of the tower,
and at times the crowd became so
dense they were forced to abandon
thfeir work to assist police in driving
the onlookers out of the danger zone.

The Tlmes-Enterprise is receiving
Christmas stockings for the poor chil
dren of the city. Have you sent
yours? It will help you to gladden
the heart of some child who otherwise
would not get one.
Many Christmas Stockings
Are Brought In—
'Thomasville always comes up all
right,” was the remark of a gentle-
thls morning, as he brought in a
lot of Christmas stockings to the
Tlmes-Enterprise. It was thought a
few days ago that the stockings were
coming in so slowly that there might
not be as many as there was last
but anybody who sees the number of
them in now will be sure that there
could not have been more of them, or
better ones at any previous time.
They are of all sorts and kinds, but
all have articles that any child will ap
preciate and be delighted to get. They
will be distributed tomorrow and will
doubtless cause much happiness to the
poor little recipients.
Carol Singing Sunday
Evtning at Court House—
Don't forget the carol singing Christ-
as eve st the court house. The In
dications sre now that there will be
pleasant weather for It and the singing
will .be out of doors. It will begin at
/clock and will be through with In
time for everyone who wants to attend
the evening services at the various
churches. The children have all been
taught these carols at school and so
will be able to Join In them.
