hy_, _how_, and _how much_. Thus: |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. | =BOYS SMOKE IN HAYLOFT= | | | |Three boys borrowed their father's pipes and took | |their first lesson in smoking yesterday in John | |Cadie's hayloft on the Anton road. | | | | =The Dead= | | | |=Heinie Pindle, 8 years old, charred body found in | |ashes of the barn.= | | | | =The Injured= | | | |=Olin Swendson, 9 years old, burned about face and | |arms while trying to save Heinie Pindle.= | | | |=Ben Adams, 9 years old, leg broken in jump from the| |hayloft.=
