EdiM, tho 4-year-old daughter of Mr.
nnd Mis D. 13. Hull, of the Hill block,
on New Yoik street, was fatally buined
yesterday morning by n blaze which
for a time tlueatened tho structure In
which tho boieaved family lesldes.
The giey of ently morning was Just
beginning to dissipate yeslei day 'morn

their sluinbets, leaving In a cilb, dl
lectly In fiont of their beil.the l-yoni-old
dnughtei, Hdna. In the bed was
their voiingei child, a chubby little
lnlto of about 2 yeats.
The father piepaied himself for the
day's labot; he Is n steam flttei, and
the mother busied heiself with the pie
pnintlon of bieakfast, which, being
seived, the husband depaited for the
scene of his day's vvotk.
At a few minutes past 8 o'clock Mrs.
Hull thought she detected the odor of

coitaln smell, which, how ever, soon de
v eloped Into a positive, offensive and
ominous odor. She seal died about the
house in a desultoiy manner, when
piesently she heaid a faint ciy fiom
the loom on the upper lloor, whole her
childt en lay.
SMOKE HEPKLLED HEP..
She hastened up the stalls, pushed
open the door, but was repelled fiom
entering the room by a dense olume
of smoke, which stifled her at flist,
and, as he paused a moment, lendeted
her faint. Overcome by the sense of an
Impending cntastiophe, she could do
nothing but lush to tho front poich of
the Hist floor and call frantically foi
help. Her ciies brought neighbois to
her dooi, who were not long in ascer
taining the cause of the alarm.
Mis. James Monle was the Hist to
anive and with heroism that would
'have done credit to an old volunteer
fliemen, the made her way through the
hallway, up the steps, and groped her
way along the daik passage to the loom
wheie she know the childien lay. The
cut tains of the window weie still diawn
leaving the loom in darkness, save
w here tiny tongues of flame were seen
to eat hungiily at the tabrlcs which
constituted the coveilots of the cilb in
which the gill, Edna, lay. Mis. Monle
(-patched the toot of the cilb and felt
about foi its occupant.
She felt the child's body, nnd her
hands touched the flesh which felt cilsp
und ciaeked under her touch. To all
Indications the child was dead. She
laid it down at the foot of the bed and
turned her attention to the younger
child, which she eairled in safety to the
outer air. At this moment John Whlt
tenioie, a next door neighbor, appealed,
llo went up to the loom and picked up
the ubhoned lemalns of the untoitu
nate Edna.
DIED IN IIIS ARMS.
As ho picked her up she heaved a last
sigh and was dead. He cnined tho le
lnaius to the floor below, giving oiders
that the fi antic mothei was not to see
the lemalns.
An alnim of (lie was sent In and sev
eral companies lesponded Their sei
vlces were not, however, needed.
Late in the day Coioner LoiiRstieet
viewed tho remains and empanelled a
juty composed ol the following: Joseph
Woelkeis, J. T. Flannelly, James Wil
son, Fiedeiick Cavlll, M. Custaid and
T. A. Donohoe. The Jury will meet
Monday evening.
Mr. and Mis. Bull have resided In tho
Hill block but a shoit time. The fum
ilv moved to this city from Wllkes
Barie. The funeinl will occur tomorrow af
tei noon at 2 o'clock from the residence
of the family. Rev. Mr. Dunn, of the
Second Pie.byteilan mission, will con
duct the funeral services and intennent
will be mude In the Dunmoie cemetery.
The most plausable theory of the file
Is that the dead till leached over the
side of the cilb, to the sill of a nearby
window, on which lay some matches.
It is probable that she bcratched a
match which ignited the clothing of her
bed.

Which thu fleeting Is Ileld--It Is in

In accordance with the nppcnl which
has been sent out by the leprcsentn
tlves of twenty-seven of the great mls
slonaiy societies of North America, the
chuiches of Scranton, In nccoi dance
with the action taken at the last meet
ing of the Pastors' union, have decided
to unite on Wednesday evening In nn
immense tnnss meeting which Is to be

D. L. Moodv has been Invited, and
also Rev. Afthur T. Plerson, D. D.,

DESIRE OF COMMITTEE.
It Is deslied by the committee on nr
langements, of which Dt. James Mc
Leod Is chairman, that all the pastors
in the city will unite in giving special
emphasis to the announcements con
cerning this meeting at tomoi low's ser
v Ices.
The circular which has been sent out
by these boards and societies states
that although the twenleth centuiy of
the Christian eia is dawning, yet mil
lions have never heard the name of
Chi 1st, and that the darkness of heath
enism Mill enwraps nenily two-thirds
of the population of the globe.
The statement Is also made that tho
oppoitunlty for world-wide evangelism
was nevw so great as at piesent; that
the Chilstlan chinch has the men and
the money, and that her responsibility
has theiefore pioportlonately inci eased,
and yet, on fields long occupied and
white unto harvest the supply of la
boieis Is utteily inadequate; that es
tablished woik is crippled; that rein
forcements aie needed, and that ad
vnnce is Impossible until lenewed In
tel est Is moused and gifts to mission
ary enterpilses gieatly enlarged.
HELD IN PRINCIPAL CITIES.
This service is one of the many ser
vices which are being held In all tho
principal towns nnd cities In the United
States and Canada, the object being
not only to arouse the Chilstlan, but to
present to the woild the essential unity
of the great Piotestant evangelical de
uomlniJtloiis which, though dlffeilng In
name and In forms of church govern
ment, aie novel theless one In their ob
ject. In their piofcsslon of faith In
Chi 1st and in their loyalty to the Bible
as the wotd ot God and the only lule
of faith and action.
