CAUGHT FROM A LAMP.
COnf1agration at Angola, n. ", Which
Resulted i'm Loss of Life.

BUFFALO, n. Y, January 30.--The town
of Angola. twenty -one..miles west of here,
had a narrow escape from destruction
by fire last night. But for the effective
work done by a portion of the Buff
falo Fire Department, the townl'would
have been consumed, and as it was, two
lives were lost as result of the fire.
1t originated in the three-story building,
corner of Main and Lake streets, owned
by the Martin estate and occupied by NJ.
H. Rynock, in the lodge room of the Ju-
venile Templarss. 1t was caused by the ex-
plosion of a lamp. The lodge was in ses-
sion, and many young folks were present.
All escaped, SO far as known now,
except little ten-year-old son of Thomas
third-story windows, and a number were
injured. A daughter of Fred. Bangerts
broke a leg and was otherwise injured, but
probably not fatally. William Thompson,
an old resident sixty five years of age, be-
came SO excited that his death was caused.
He walked two blocks to the fire, remained
few minutes and then went home, land i'm
mediately fell in fit of fapoplexy and died.
Several buildings adjoining were con-
sumed.

The preparations for the cold
weather in the Northwest are sur
prise to visitors. Fur coats and caps
have duplicate sets of windows. with a
few inches of air between; the stoves
are of enormous size, often reaching
nearly to the ceiling; and such diver
sion as sleighing is scarcely known, as
nobody thinks of spending time out of
doors for fun in winter. - Chicago Times.

Postal AHairsy

WASHINGTON, January 29.-The Post-of-
flee appropriation bill has been completed
by the House Appropriation Committee. A
clause in the bill provides for the issuse of
a special stamp of the face valuation, ten

title it to immediate delivery within carrier
limit of any free delivery office, or within
one mile of the post-office of any place con-
tanning population of four thousand, or
over, when designated by the Postmaster
General as special delivery office. To
provide for payment of persons employed
for this special aservice, the Postmaster at
any office designated shall keep record of
the number of the letters received bearing
the special stamp, and at the end of each
month pay to the person thus
employed sum not exceeding
eighty per cent. of the face value
of special stamps. In no case shall this
compensation exceed $50 per month. Esti-
mates, as prepared by the Post -office De-
partment, amounted to $4,000, ,169. The
appropriation for the current year amount
ed to..S49, ,040, 400. Of The total sum appropri-
ated, the following are among the items
For compensation to Postmasters, 81, 800,
600: increase over the present year, 81 800,
600: compensation of clerks in post offices
s., 100 600; free delivery system, S4,100,000,
of which $95, 900 may be used in the discre-
tion of the Postmaster General for the es-
tablishment, under an existing law, of a
free delivery system in cities where not
now established.

mound and spread it before his door.
The rains washed it aud he found
among the gravel a nugget of gold
that weighed an ounce. This opened
his eyes. He scraped up the gravel
and it PANIED out 1926 in rough pick
ings. Then lie took bushel of the
mound, ground it to powder in the
mortar, and it yielded 1925 which show
ed his good sense in not taking $50 a
bushel for it. Then the Oldest inhabi-
tant Of Cabarrus, nigh on to one hun
dred, suddenly recollected a story told
him when boz, by his grandfather,
about an Englishman who lived in
taleigh before revolutionary times,
digging a pit, finding a pile of gold
and going home to coin it. The pit
was on this very Cabarrus farm, and
the mound was made from the dig
giDgs. The lucky Englishman worked
the mine in rough, took out the big
gest yellow chunks and left the small.

a North Carolina tarmer Of Cabar-

rich the other day, when he was offer
ed $50 bushel for two thousand
bushels of a sand and gravel mound
on his farm. The dirt was more prof
liable at that price than any farm pro-
duct he could raise on his land, but he
was as sharp as old Farmer Rogers,
the North Carolina farm of
"Esmeralda." and didn't take it. The

THOSE interested in degrees of pun>
ishment il the hereafter, are pleased
to know that "hell," which has always
rolled up before our imaginatioDs as a
great raging tempest of fire, is known
IN the revised edition as "sheol," the
original Hebrew word, which is said
tC have no equivalent in English
Originally, hell like the Greek
'hades' was the exact equivalent of
'sheol,' both being the designation of
a vast hollow place or cavern
under the earth where the
spirits of the dead were supposed
to dwell, not in torments, but still in
darkness and discomfort. The place
of punishment was called by the He
brews in later days 'gehenna', from the
name of the valley near Jerusalem
where rubbish and ordure were cast,
and where fires were kept burning to
purify the air. The idea of "hell" IS
of place of torture is modification
of the original conception, but it has
become SO firmly established that the
word no longer answers to the Hebrew
'sheol. and has therefore properly been
discarded by the revisers." This will
give readers who have no. by expert
ence familiarize6 themselves with the
difficulty of interpreting exactly one
language by another, an idea of the
extreme care that must be used.
Words, like everything else, change
from age to age. either by be-
ing applied to new objects, or by re-
ceiving derived meanings, or by be-
coming obsolete. Thus, in less than
three centuries, the idea that shell" is
a place of perpetual torture has so
wound itself around the
word that a new word must
be found to express the idea
which shelf originally had of being
the abode of departed spirits who had
not yet reached heaven. So the revis-
ers would puta 1 to the doctrine
of eternal push 1t. They would,
like the ADHERE i Catholicity, als

THERE Is still talk of Mormons
leaving Utah and settling in Mexico
In furtherance of this scheme it is
said a son of Brigham Young by his
first wife has been in New York for
some time attempting to sell the prop
erty of the Mormon Church to syr-
dictate of Capitalists. There is very
little common property held by the
church; the Territory is Distracted,
each district is given over to an apos-
tie. There are upwards Of one hundred
Bishops, chosen for their business
capacity. The Bishops silent partner
is the apostle for his district. The en-
tire scheme is to get up a. monopoly
of trade. No ether Mormon is allow
ed to start store, and the Mormons
are for hidden to t,ade with the Gen
tiles.
