Fire Alarm Almost Caused
Stampede
AT SECOND BAPTIST
Congregation Hid Gathered for Even
ing Service When Cry of “Fira!"
Caused Ruth and Women md Chil
dren Narrowly Escaped Serious In-
jury—Exoitomont Caused by Fire In
Furnace — No Injury and Slight
| Damage.
Ju«t aa the services were about to
begin In the Second Baptlat church
laat night aome one In the large con
gregation who had been giving atten
tion to the peculiar antic* of the ra
diator neareat the furnace cried out
"Fire!” In a moment the large con
gregation aroae and before the excite
ment could be aupr»r«o**d ft general
ruah waa made for the doora of the
edifice. Aa a reault many of the ladl-a
and children of the congregation were
unnerved and aome fainted before It
could be announced that there waa
little danger.
When the fire waa discovered the
alarm waa turned In and the depart
ment responded. Before the companlea
arrived at the church the blaze had
been extinguished and little damage
to the building waa done. The fire
started In some trash which had lodged
near the pipe* closely connected with
the furnace, and the party who gave
the alarm supported that the building
waa on fire. The trash flared up for
only a moment. The blaze waa never
very threatening and waa easily con-,
trolled by members of tho congrega
tion. ,
Large numbers of I he visitors at the
church services made a dash for the
entrance deanlte the effort to assure
them that there waa no danger. The
united ruah resulted tn the highest ex
cltement for a few momenta and it
looked ns If It woull develop Into a
stampede with serious loss of life.
The excitement Inated until the fire
department arrived on the scene. Only
a few momenta after the fire companlea
were on the grounds It waa announced
that there wan absolute safety. The
services were soon under way and the
firemen returned.
The church auditorium waa filled
largely with women and children and
the danger of fatality was very great
at the moment when the rush was
made for the doors. Children were
knocked down nnd trampled on In tho
excitement, while the ladles narrowly
oacaped like treatment. Those who
witnessed the accident stated that It
ended moat miraculously In no serious
Injury.

ROBERT 8. SAUL8BURY.
Death of Ona of the Prominent Citizens
of Macon.
A funernl notice uppeura elsewhere
of the death of Itohtrt 8. Huulshury,
which occurred yesterday afternoon at
the city hospital after nn Illness of two
weeks. While Mr. Huulsbury’s Illness
waa brief, he hnd not been In vigorous
health for a year past. He was born
In Macon November 2G, 1854. the son
of the lute Edwin Huulshury and Mel
vine Chnlres. Ilia father was a nativ
of Maryland und belonged to the cele
brated Delaware family of the same
name. His mother was n native of
Leon county, Florida. He graduated
front Emory College In 1873, after
which he took a post graduate course
at the University of Virginia. Hla
first business connection was the cot
ton warehouse firm of Haulshury, Ues

COOQty in the Florida legislature,
brilliant polltlcnl career seemed
open to hint In Florida, but was
short by a defect n h*a hearing, which
Increased as he grew older. This lUro
caused hi* retirement from society,
which In hla younger days he was
brilliant member, being of a genial and
toclhble disposition, with engaging
manners and nil the advantages of

of George Ketcnam by the American trot
ting association \vcr» doubtless pleased
hen the report nf Ida complete exonera
tion was mads known- The case that led
to the trial of the wealthy hot sc owner
and racer came up Just after the great
feat of Cresceus on the track at Wichita,
Kana. It waa claimed then tnat Ketchnm
had been guilty of establishing s fraudu
lent record for Ills trotting stallion but
after the reclmt hearing of tho ess* be
fore the Board of 'pjv*«:s of the Trotting
Association the charges were thrown out
on the ground* that the evidence fell
short of sufficiency in establishing crimi
nal participation. ;;o far as Mr. Ketchom
was conccrm-d..
The story detail ».t by Flatter Wharton
of the Wichita track, who declared io
the board that Mr • ••U'lrirt bad mrangc-l
with him to iix the iim* for •"’rtsceua so
that "the world's record would l»e brok

viewed from the •'vld* , n» in hand. “Ac

determine that th# urvld^nre to eMshllsh

While 'rising Mr,. K**t;h.inj from the

Upon the battlefields and in the camp
life of the Japanese soldiers the Young
Men's Christian Association Is work
ing world* of good.
After months of delay the association
has Ijeen finally authorized by the
Japanese war department to go for
ward with the troops with tents, read
ing matter, stationery, gramophones,
music, games and popular and Chris
tlan literature, magazines and all the
paraphernalia that the Y. M. C. A.T
have used In this country and the Phil-
Ipplnes for their soldier associations.
The secretaries put up their tents first
at Antung, Manchuria, and within
week had J, 600 of the Japanese sold
iers about them. In one day they serv
ed ten buckets of tea, and 375 letters
and postals were written home. The
most popular thing the secretaries do
is to give gramophone concerts and on
tertalnments at the hospitals, as the
poor fellows are glad of any break In
the monotony. Even an American is
an Interesting curiosity In himself to
the average Japanese soldier, who is
from the country. He wonders what
the man is there for, and appreciates
every little attention and help In the
relief of the suffering and tedium of
the day and night.
C. V. Hibbard, secretary In charge,
was first taken for a Russian spy. and
saved only by hla passport from the
war department. He soon got to be
well known, and Instead of the call of
suspicion, “Russian spy,” It was of ap
preciation, "See the American.” The
acting governor of the city, the mili
tary governor and chancellor have call
ed at the association tent repeatedly.
The Tokkaldo Railway and Osaka
Bhosen Kwalsha, & leading Japanese
steamship line, have given transporta
tion for the supplies. Count Kataura,
Prime Minister of Japan, said to W. B.
Millar, army secretary of the interna
tional committee, in a recent Interview
at Tokyo: "Two years ago. when
was In command of a division during
the Japan-China war, I waa Impressed
with the fact\that one of the Important
problems was how the men might ho
asnlted in spending their leisure pro
fitably and the need of some plan of
effort that would help solve the pro
blem. I have heard somewhat before
and have been much interested In your
acocunt this morning of the work done
In that direction by your organization
In the armies nnd navies of America
and Europe, nnd of the plans already
on foot to begin a similar wdrk among
the soldiers of Japan. The result of
the experiment will be watched with
deep Interest.”

Although a negro, the color line In

Whenever the members of the R. A.

whatever else that waa requested.
Never did King ask for payment for

feringa of the veterana When aaked
If he wished to receive a stipulated
amount for the work rendered he re
nted In the negative, stating that he
desired to do the work for the pleasure
it afforded him rather than for pay.
But ■ a few days beforo hla death
