Talmagc’s Appeals for Aid. New Tor.K, Oct 10.—The famous Brooklyn Tabernacle, of which Rev. T. DeWitt Talmnge, D.

At 2:15 o'clock Sunday morning a policeman discovered flames issuing from the small windows over the main entrance, and, rushing to fha nearest signal-box, sent in an alarm. THE TABERXAOT.E. BROOKLYN. The firemen found the fire had assumed large proportions, and additional alarms -calling all available apparatus were at once sent in. It become evident that the edifice was doomed to destruction, It burned like a tinder-box, and the fire men, despairing of saving it, directed - fheir efforts to the adjoining property. Talm*;« Watched It Burn. A number of dwellings on each side of the chnroh were destroyed, many oi the inmates escaping in their night clothes. Fortunately there was no loss of life or limb. While the fireman and -police worked for the salvation of prop erty and persons, the doomed church building was being rapidly consumed, end in on hour's time only tottering walls remained. Dr. Talmage was on the scene soon after the first alarm, and did not leave nutil he had seen the edi fice which had been his -ride laid in ashes. Then he returnee, sorrowfully home. All day crowds visited the spot and gazed upon the ruins. Nearly all the members of the Tabernacle congre- S tion received their first intimation oi e file upon rounding the adjacent cor ners and being confronted by the black ened walls and smoldering ruins.
