Mr. Massengsi? today, ' is a large va

there is a regular dumping ground by

"I’d like to know what the crema

"This dumping ground is c-ted but

this garbage is a constant menace to

fusion the resolution will create, no
one man is anxious t<> assume the re

that two men from each of the eleven

Whether the resolution be introduced
or not, it Is expected that at least three
new presiding elders will be appointed

In the past 1* has been a frequent
practice to permit n presiding elder to

then transfer him to another district

ments. to be received at the station in
the arms of mothers and friends who
could not feel the girls were actually
sgfe from the flames until they had

accounted for. Not a soul' of the hun
dred was injured in the slightest.

' keepsake from the smoke-filled dorml-
• tory.
| The story of the fire in the dark
! uess before 4 the dawn, the quiet awak
' ening, the unfaltering heroism of the
i asters of St. Joseph and the prayer in
I the little chapel while flames raged
I overhead was told graphically today by
| Miss Lefu Bricken, the 17-year-old
daughter of Mr. end Mrs. W. M. Briek-
i en, of 33 Bedford place, who led the
: march down the stairs in the dark
l.ness and who was first to gain the
■ fresh air of the campus. She told of
■ the bravery of Father McMahan, chap
lain of St. Josephs, who risked his life
to save the sacred chalices from the
altar; of the kindliness of the good peo
ple of the town of Washington, Catho
lic and Protestant alike, who took the
shivering, hysterical girls into their
i homes and clothed them, and of the
! sadness of the good sisters who stood
: In their black robes in the chill dawn
and watched the destruction of the
school which had been their home for
so many years.
No Alarm Bell;
No Cries of Fear.
“We slept in the big dormitory on
the third floor, each girl with a little
room of her own, and the sisters in
their apartments at one end of the hall,”
said Miss Bricken. “The electric lights
had been turned off. and only one big
lamp was left to light the dormitory
dimly. This had been choked out by tlf’
smoke when one of the girls awoke and
, aroused the sisters.
"There was no alarm bell, no shrieks
of tenor. Sister Cecilia, Sister Ra
phael, Sister Vita and Mother Cfabriel,
who, was in charge in the absence of
Mothey Superior Aloysius, arose quiet
, ly, opened the windows to let In the
fresh air. kih! ran through the dormi
tory, touching each girl on the shoul-
: I tier and waking her.
“ 'Get up quickly and quietly,' they
i said. The building is on fire, but there ,
is no danger. Don't stop to save any
thing.'
“When we were all awake and stand
ing in the smoke-filled room, one of the
sisters led the march down the two
flights of stairs, through absolute dark
ness. but with step as steady and un
hurried as in the every-day march to
studies. Down through the darkness
marched the girls, on to the main floor
and into the chapel, which was at the
end Os the building farthest from the
fire, and safe for a time, at least. The
candles were burning on the altar, but
there was no other light.
And there, while the flames were
bursting through the roof at the end of
the building, we knelt and prayed that
St. Josephs might be saved, and ren
dered our thanks that we were safe.
For Mother Gabriel had stood In the
chapel and counted the girls who knelt
before her, and knew that all were
saved.
“The fire was drawing closer, so we
rose and marched out of the chapel into
the fresh air of the campus. I was the
first in the march down the stain, and
first in the open air. We had nothing

CHOIR SINGERS TO DO
‘BLACKFACE’ AT BENEFIT
Choir singfcrs from many of Atlanta’s
; most prominent circles will black their
faces tomorrow afternoon and warble
the ballads and ragtime of the minstrel
show for tb.e benefit of the West End
Bible class.
The minstrel performance will be
given in the parish house of the Church
of the Incarnation in Lee street, near
i Gordon street. It will begin at 8 o’clock,
i
the dormitory was steam-heated and
we needed no heavier robes there. And
there had not been time to save any
thing except what we wore. I did
emerge from the building with one slip
per, Into which I had thrust my foot
instinctively when I arose. But most of
the girls were barefooted and shivering j
with the cold.
"When we were ail safe outside Ea- I

bearing the sacred vestments and the
silver chalices from the altar. Ana I
these were the only relics saved from I
the destroyed St. Josephs.
“The good people of Washington were
aroused by the flames and they came
I hurrying to the campus, many of them
| bearing wraps and clothing caught up
I hastily as they ran. They took us to
; their homes, warmed us at their fires,
dressed us in such clothes as they could
find and did every possible thing to aid
us in our distress. We had to laugh at
the fit of some of the clothes lent us by
friends who didn't have daughters of
our sizes in the family, but even this
was improved afterward and we were
happy and comfortable again.
Merchants All
Offered Girls Aid.
“I was taken into the home of Mrs.
Irone, whose husband is the cashier of
the central bank. His sister, Mrs. Gab
bett, lent me clothes to wear home. And
the merchants of Washington, W. T.
1 Johnson, the dry goods man; Miss Kate
I Dakeman, the milliner, and others told
- us we could have whatever we liked
| and pay after we came home.”
Miss Bricken and the other Atlanta
girls could not say too much in praise
, of the people of Washington, the quaint
old Southern town which, has retained
its ante-bellum character, its peaceful
atmosphere and its hospitality for a
dozen generations.
• "Every door was open to us, every
. purse was at our disposal.” she said.
, "The sisters purchased our tickets home
and we needed nothing but clothing
and food, and these were offered by
’ every family in Washington.
"Father McMahan spent the morning
going from house to house to see that
all the girls were comfortable. He
' hurried to the stores and arranged that
’ every girl should purchase what she
I needed, saying lie personally would be
1 responsible. Some of the Atlanta girls
' did not come home last night, but prob
ably will arrive today. Most of the
- Others are scattering to their homes to
wait until the school can be opened
again.”
Arrange to Keep
Some Classes Intact.
, Arrangements are being made by the
I mother superior to keep the graduate
and subigi-aduate classes intact and
complete their terms In a temporary
home in Washington. The other classes
, probably will be abandoned for the
year. But St. Josephs certainly will be
rebuilt, for the property is valuable and
the school has a long established repu
tation.
Miss Mildred Sault, daughter of Mr
and Mrs. Sidney D. Sault, of 66 St.
('Charles avenue; Miss Cecile McCarty,
Miss Bricken and several other girls
returned last night. Others of the ten
, Atlanta students are expected today.
Immediately on the receipt of news of
the fire. Sister Frances, sister superior
of the Sacred Heart school at Atlanta,
who was the founder of St. Josephs,
went to Washington. She expected to
return to Atlanta this afternoon and
will report on the extent of the damage,
the prospects for reoi>ening the insti
tution or the necessity for its complete
rebuilding. Until her return, the At
lanta authorities were able to give out
no definite infoiznation as to the re
opening of the school, but the senti
ment was expressed that in no cas?
would it be abandoned.
