SERIOIJSFIREAI/ERTED
BY BOY WHO GAVE ALARM
UPON SMELLING SMOKE
The family of Samuel Stokes, mem
ber of the firm of Thomas and. Stokes,
Main street merchants, narrowly es
caped leing trapped by fire in their
home at Spa View Heights at 2 o’clock
this morning. But for the fact that
Mr. Stokes’ young son, Samuel, was
aroused ly the smell qf smoke, the
rest of the family consisting of his
wife and young daughter, probably
would have leen confronted by a ser
ious situation.
It developed following an investi
gation after the lad had aroused his
parents, tolling that he smelled smoke,
that a blaze had started in the kitchen
which is in the basement of the dwel
ling. due to an ironing board catching
fire from an electric iron, the cur
rent of which had been left turned
, on when the family retired for the
night. The overheated instrument
I had burned through the covering of
the board, and the board itself had
burned in half, and the iron fell upon
the cement flooring. This latter cir
-1 cumstance. alone prevented more seri
ous damage. As it was many rough
dry pieces of wearing apparel of the
family were destroyed, the burning
1 garments causing a dense cloud of
' smoke through which Mr. Stokes had
• to battle his way before discovering
the cause of the firo. Meanwhile,
• neighbors who had been aroused, came
5 to the assistance of Mr. and Mr 3.
Stokes and aided in extinguishing the

NORRIS ANOTHER STAR
Football stock at St. John's, already
greatly in the ascendency with one of
. the largest squads in the history of
the institution, and George Hoban,
formerly coach of Friends School, as
the new mentor, is expected to receive
another big boost today, as announce
ment is made that George Darley, All-
Maryland quarterback last year, has
I decided to enter college and will d m
the moleskins and engage in practice
with the squad.
Played Here Two Tears Ago
Darley was the star of the Johns
Hopkins eleven last season, his bril
liant individual work being a big fac
tor in Hopkins’ triumph over the
I cadets in the big State gridiron
j classic. Though not much in avoirdu
pois, he is a brilliant offensive player
being particularly clever in broken
field running and circling the ends:
i handles kicks in excellent style, and
!is a punter of ability. He also is a
strong man on the defensive, being a
. sure tackier. Darley played on the
| local eleven two years ago prior to
going to Hopkins.
Another Star From Friends

other valuable acquisition during the

LONDON. Sept. 27. Greece
is in the throes of a revolution
which has already caused the
overthrow of the government and
once again has forced the un
happy Constantine to abdicate in
favor of the crown prince, thus
losing his throne for the second
time in five years. The revolu
tionary movement, which is said
to be led by General Gonatas, is
making headway in all directions,
hut thus far without reports of
bloodshed.
Insurrection Come Quickly
The insurrection which came as a
swift storm from a cloudless sky had
its inception among the vanquished
troops brought from Smyrna to the
islands of Mytilene and Chios and
unong the soldiers at Saloniki.
strangely enough, however, these two
revolts seem to have had different ob
jects—the former aiming at the over
throw of the government and King
! Constantine and the latter at the de
fense of Thraco against the Turks.
