|Fire originating in a pile of shavings crawled |
|across a 100-yard stretch of dry Bermuda grass at an|
|early hour this morning, destroying the cotton |
|warehouse at 615 Railroad Street, owned by J. O. |
|Hunnicut, president of the First National Bank. The |
|loss is $25,000 with no insurance. |
=212. Lives Lost or Endangered.=--The fire lead may feature any one or
more of a dozen individual incidents. Loss of, or danger to, life,
unless other features are exceptional, should take precedence over every
other particular.
|Six women are dead and ten seriously injured as a |
|result of the destruction by fire, Tuesday morning, |
|of the Gold and Green Club, 1818 Chestnut Street, |
|entailing a loss of $30,000. |
=213. Lists of Killed or Wounded.=--In writing a story where a number of
persons have been killed or injured, the reporter should observe the
following directions:
1. Separate the names of the dead from those of the injured, putting the
list of dead first.
2. Record the names in alphabetical order, placing surnames first.
3. Put each name, with the age, address, occupation or business, nature
and extent of the injury, and any care given, in a separate paragraph.
4. Underscore the names with wave lines so that they shall be printed in
display type.
