A member of the staff of the Baltimore Sun, who-camover with the force from that 1 aper last night, said the fury of the fire wee beyond description. He said: The flames swept down the si recto with the onward iueh and tnry of a tidal wave. Great billows of fire 200 feet high would All the apace between the buildings, and sweeping from aide to aide, would blot out of existence a skyscraper as though it were a box of matches." The Union Trust building und the Atlantic Trust building shared the aame fate. One moment they stood in the stately beauty of stone and marble, a moment later and they were noL Tbe flames would lash against their sides, beat in the massive walla, leap from windows and roofs and then would come the collapse. The Union Trust building, one of tbe handsomest In tbe country, seemed to vanish almost ns It looked. The fire was a mass, of whirling, blinding embers. In theSnq office where we were at work ropy paper would burn as we wrote. In the streets burning embers would fall In sheets and the swift wind carried them along. The burned district of Baltimore la the business section, Including the entire wholesale trade and n great part of the retail trade. In the fin district were nil the Important business and official, the newspaper offices, two hotels, the Central bnlldlng of the Baltimore ft Ohio railroad, the poetofllce building, the courthouse, the Bell Telephone building, Holliday Street theatre and aevtdal of the Important banka. Baltimore street wee the main business street of Baltimore and the dividing line between tbe wholesale aud retail portions, bring lined with establishments of both descriptions. For three or four blocks south from Baltimore street and Howard street weet the flames swept everything. North on Baltimore street came the First Fayette, then Lexington struct. West of Charles street these two streets are devoted to retail establishments. Tbe loss from the fire will Ira so gigantic that it will be' Impossible to estimate at this time. Tbe lues to buildings will be Immense. Persons over from Baltimore familiar with its affaire say the district, destroyed includes all the leading trust companies, all the wholesale houses, many of the retail stores and thousands of emnller business. Many of them carry insurance. and it is doubtful If the many Insurance companies will be able to pay their loeaes dollar for dollar, and those that do will probably require time In which to arrauge for the Moment. The start of the Are was In the basement of Hurst ft Co.'s wholesale diy goods house. After burning for ten minutes or so there was loud explosion In the interior of the bumiing from the gasoline tank, used for the engine in the building. Instantly the Immense structure rollateel. sending destruction to adjacent buildings in all directions and causing the fire to get beyond control. The first attempt at dynamiting was In the large building of Armstrong, Carter ft Co., but it failed to collapse. The force of the explosion tore out the massive granite columns that supported the building and left It with apparently almost no support, lint the walls foiled to collapse and stood until ths flames had crossed Cbat-lcstreet and were eating into th block. The Arc In ths meantime had crossed to the ruw of lbs building im South Charles street, between Go.man and Lombard, and at the places, occupied principally by wholesale produce aud grain dealers, were in flame. Shortly before midnight Hie Carrollton hptel was In flames and the .fire waa sweeping toward Calvert street with trresistable force. The foremen working on the south side had succeeded lu controlling the flames at Tonibard street and as the wind was from the northwest there was no danger of Us spreading farther in that direction. The progress o tbe flames toward the north had. in the meantime. Itecn so rapid, as to tie simply appalling. From structure to structure they flew, licking tip the msslve build iilr-- s as if composed of paper. In the block between Gorman and Baltimore streets they flow along and almost before it could be realized tin? building along Baltimore street were Mazing. For a rims it wa hoped the fire could be kept from crossing the north aide of Baltimore street and tbe firemen made desperate efforts to prevent it. Their efforts, however, were useless. and soon the tall. narow Mullins hotel began to dnrt out tongues of names and the remaining bn. Mings between Sharp and Liberty streets were soon ablaze and the fire began its march to the north. Rapidly Hie flames darted from place to lace, and soon the entire south aide of Kayrlte street was in the grasp of the flames.

A similar measure heralded the outbreak of tbe Tui klebGroek war. Rev. Mr. Wright preached os Nearer, My God, to Thee," at the Baptist church last evening. Mra. Sarah Flower Adams, the author of this hymn, wa the younger of two daughters of educated, religious, highly refined parent. Her slater devoted herself to music, while Barak chose religious poetry. Their companionship was Ideal, giving expression to deep-seatlove and refinement. In 1834 our author was married to William Bridges Adams. In 1841 she published a dramatic poem in five acts entitled "Vlvla Perpetua, which portrays the religious life, sufferings, strong faith and endurance of the early mar-tyr- e. ed The hymn, Thee, waa Nearer, My God, to a record of her own expe- rience and was published among thli-tee- n other hymns in London In 1841. Six yean after its publication her ouly slater died of consumption, and the loss was ao great to the sensitive and loving nature of Mrs. Adams that two years after ahe followed her sister to be nearer God." The hymn la an' universal favorite, having been translated Into many languages. and follows the gospel everywhere In heathen lands. The Incidents connected with its singing would fill n volume. One of the most touching Is connected with n little drummer boy, who was wounded during the battle of Fort Donaldson. Some of the hospital corps found him after the battle with one arm tarried away by a cannon ball. He died before they could carry him off the battle field, but he comforted himaelf by singing this hymn. Up from the blood of battle, the cloud of 'powder emoke, the chlldlah voice rang aa he sang: There let the way appear steps unto heaven; All that thou aendeat me in mercy given; Angela to beckon ma Nearer, my God. to Thee, Nearer to Thee! God be praised for the woman who gave to the world thla hymn. The song takes It imagery from Jacobs vision at Lux, and beautifully seta forth the dream In Immortal story. This song la Immortal, because It give expression to tbe soul's highest activity, namely, to he near God. It expresses the true aspiration ot the soul. Oh, that 1 had tbe eloquence of angel and tbe votes of mighty thunder ao that I might make thla world hear tbe Gublimity of this thought. 8o that instead of political aspiration, financial aspiration, social aspiration, to fine tha aspirations that move the most of mankind today, humanity might have ode great soul Impulse, anxiety, hope, determination! aspiration to be 'Nearer, My God, to Thee. That thla great soul should be willing, as thw hymn suggests, to be "raised by a cross, by woes, through wandering, darkness, dreaty unrest'' Then might the way appear, steps unto heaven, with angels beckoning. And out of the strong griefs Bethel would rise. While st length "Oh, joyful wing, cleaving the sky, Bun, moon and stars forgot, nward we would fly, to be ' Nearer, O God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee." It will be a glorious day when the great soul of humanity sings In llio and aspiration this Immoral hymn." 8U11 more glorious will be the day when we shall Veslixe the aspiration as we sing the song of Moses and the Lamb with the Innumerable host about the throne of God. hand qf compulsion la laid upon us and guides ua into pa Mis we would to abun, paths (bat we feel are lead, ing ua. away from channels and nei, ita of thought, toward a ayraiiatMie relationship with man and id- -a have never before appealed to u, f.,r sympathy and support.

Mr. Talbot had not heard from at a late hour and the It, v. , Mr. Blair continued tha ,x parting that Rev. Talbot would make an appearance.

Ernmnii In the Episcopal church Rev. Alfred Brown preached from the tollowing text: Thou ehalt not make to thyself any graven image." Exodus xx:4. The second commandment forbids a different sin from the first. Tho find secures the worship of the true Gud by excluding nil other the second goes n aiep furl her andgods; fop bids the worship of Jobovah under auy Image or symbol. The first commandment blda to worship the ono God exclusively, the second blda ua to won ship Him spiritually. The subsequent history cf Israel shows that this commandment was very necessary for them. In the wilderness they began to worshiirikxi the image of & calf they dishonored Jehovah In the fashion described Thus they turned by the Psalmist : their glory into the similitude of a calf that eateth hay." This worship of Jehovah under the form of a caff was a perpetual trouble in Isan.'l. When Jeroboam wished to prevent the ua-d- people from going up to Jerusalem, lia npt set up nnr strange gjd. but hn Instituted a feast at Dan and Bethel in honor of God who brought them out of Egypt, and he introduced tbe calf did, aa the symbol of Jehovah. A grievous offense thla, which led every subsequent historian of the Old Testament to speak of him as Jeroboam, the aon of fcebat, who made Israel to sin. The second commandment has a till a meaning: it lie tbe safeguard pf the Imagination. It kids tin, brat of all think of God ns He has revealed Himaelf is the .Father; It forbids the misuse of the imaginative faculty.
