BIG FIRE AT SCHOOL BUILDING
CAUSES MUCH EXCITEMENT.
Thursday night about 10 o’clock
the big fire bell was heard do
clang vigorously, and people in
the neighborhood of the depart
ment headquarters on Candler St
(for purpose of identification calf
it Engine House No. Pi saw the
brave fire laddies hurl tihems dv< s
into their hariness, grab the hose
reels, the book and ladder truck,
the chemical engine and beat it
for the conflagration.
But the conflagration refused
to conflag. Wh n the hose tmck,
the hook and ladder reels, and
the concentrated essence of tire
ext'ingu’sher and the firemen ar
rived at the school house, there,
was nothing burning except a
few examination papers and es
says in a stove.
“Who sent in th : s alarm?” de
manded the chief, of the crowd
that had gathered. Silence rent
the air.
* “And for what reason?” eontic
ued the Chief—-who is also an un
dertaker when he is not work
wi nu iwi!,
ing.
Not a sound vras heard except
the deep sighing of a beautiful
young girl, clinging to the arm
of her bean.
Dissatisfied tvifh the r suit of
his cross-exatninatkm, the child
put his men at it and after about
two hours’ hard wrk, during
which time only one fireman was
injured, not counting the one that
swallowed his tobacco, tin* tire
was extinguished, or put out.and
the heroic efforts of the chief
and his men had saved lor the
city’ and future posterity the
handsome school building that
stands on an eminence at the
junction of Athens fund Church
srteets. 1

Brigade Post for Atlanta
Atlanta, Ga., April 10—Every
n 1
indication seems to point to the
permanenoe and increased size of
the army post here. The officers
themselves .are expcting that a
brigade post, will be established
at Fort McPherson, and it is prao
tie ally taken for granted that this
is to become tone of the big army
centers of the country.
Illustrative of this feeling is
the fact that Major W. K. Da
shjell of the United States Infan
try has bought a ten-acre tract of
I dud on the East Lake road, three
blocks from the club house in the
game neighborhood as the W. T.
Gentry purcfiose and will erect a
handsome home there.
This Am ir'gtration is m re tliar
