On Friday , night what might easily have proved a serious fire occurred in the laboratory in Me morial HalL About sunset Presi dent Hobbs was going over the building with a. former pupil of the institution, A. M. Hackett, of Randolph, and what seemed to be the flame of a small lamp appeared among the collection of chemicals. Upon investigation it was clear that it was a case of spontaneous combustion arising on the expos ure, through evaporation, perhaps, of some phosphorous to the air. It was necessary to break through the glass door, and upon doing so the inflow of air made a fine flame, the bottle tumbling onto the floor and the whole bursting into a most brilliant and alarming blaze. For tunately and with thanks to Dr. Benbowbe it said water in abund ance was within a hand's reach. The floor was soon flooded, and as phosphorous will not burn under water the flames were extinguished after the filling of several rooms most - densely with phosphorous fumes. Nq serious damage was done; but had not the discovery of the firq been made at the time of the visit of Mr. Hackett there is Ferason to believe the building Would have been destroyed. Mrs. Tamar Hill, of Richmond, Indiana, left by will to the college thousand dollars for the educa tion of girls. The college is grate ful for this valuable aid in educa tion of, girls at Guilford. Since the college has been open alike to young men and women since 1837 the entire endowment of the insti tution is as much for girls as for young men, and this donation is a special gift in their favor.. One is made hopeful of the future by the good spirit of liberality towards institutions of learning which is so manifest in these closing days of the nineteenth century. Many members of the Society of Friends left North Carolina before and af ter the civil war, and it is a cause of much thankfulness to receive in this way such marked evidences of attachment to their native state. We hope' more of them will do likewise. . These donations to Guil ford will be wisely applied for the purpose intended and will do great good.
