BECRETARY OF BTATE ROOT, IN WHOBE HONOR MEXICO IS ; PLANNING MANY DEMONSTRATIONS HYMN QUIETS CHURCH PANIC SMOKE STARTS A RUSH FOR SAFETY "Nearer, My God, to Thee" Brings Calmness to Congregation at the First Methodist Church. Cause a Mystery The odor of smoke threw 1500 people into a panic last night at the First Methodist church. Before a score had reached the doors in a rush for safety tha choir took up "Nearer, My God, to Thee," echoed by the cooler-headed among the congrega tion! As the frightened ones scrambled for the exits the influence of the hymn brought them confidence, and, forgetting their fears, many resumed their seats. A number refused to return. The auditorium was crowded to over flowing. The deaconesses appointed at the Methodist conference during the day had Just been consecrated, and Dr. Ma hood had hardly begun his sermon when the smoke was noticed. It seemed to be discovered in half a dozen places simultaneously. There was a nervous rustle, followed for an inßtant by absolute silence. A figure in the buck of the church darted toward the vestibule, and a moment later the aisles were Jammed. Had there been a cry of flre the result would have been serious. Hindered by their numbers, the safety-seekers hur ried, crowded, pushed. But on« cry of alarm would have turned tlje procession into a stampede. And then the notes of the hymn drowned the noise of the shuffling feet and the whispered inquiries. The stream slacked, hesitated, thinned out. and turned. But a handful. pursued their course. The cause of the smoke is a mystery. It Is believed that it came from the out side. BRIDGE CARPENTER IS SHOT BY ENEMY ROW IN RAILROAD CAMPS HA!
