CANDLEMAs DAY-The feast Of the Puri-
fication of the Virgin Mary, or otherwise
called Candlemas Day, was celebrated in ell
the Catholic churches of this city to-day.
This feast dates back to the early ages, aud

candles were blessed, in recognition of the
purity Of the Virgin, and distributed among
the faithful The day ia also known as
in the old tradition the winter will continue
for six weeks longer, for the hog certainly
saw his shadow if he came from his hole to-
day.

COULD HAVE BEEN RICH,
But Didn't Embrace His Opportunities.

Harvey Brace resides in Lincoln
county, and is interested with his
brother IN sawmil in Idaho. He
went to Spokane Falls in 1879, and
worked for A. M. Cannon, at the saw
mill in that city. Mr.. Cannon was at
that time also running small store
and times we're hard and money
scarce. Hon. James N. Glover, who
had come In advance of all the others,
and who had stood his ground through
many a dark hour prior to the arrival
of many of the present residents, was
making a manly struggle to build up
and maintain the little town by the
falls, but all were poor, for money was
scarce and the prospect not as bright
and certain as it is to-day by any
means.
After Harvey Brace had worked for
Mr.. Cannon for some time he drew his
pay one day and was told by Mr.. Can
non that although his services were
valuable he guessed he would have to
let him go unless he would take half
his future compensation in town lots.
As the sale for lumber at the mill was
limited Mr.. Cannon explained that he
could not see his way clear to pay him
SIS day in cash, and that was the
pay he was getting. The town lots
Mr.. Cannon desired to let him have
were along Riverside avenue, where
the principal business is now trans
acted upon that street. Corner lots
were $50 and inside lots were placed
at S25. Mr.. Brace thought this was
pretty high for these lots, and did not
feel that he could afford to work on
such terms He thought it would
pay him better to go out into the
farming country and get him a piece
of land, and this is, perhaps, what
most men would have thought at that
time.
The lots which Mr.. Brace could
have bought at $25 each in 1879, and
which he refused at that price, are
now worth about $4,000 each. If he
had concluded to "blow in" half his
salary on these lots, he would have
earned at least three or four of them
each month. And if he had held onto
them until now, this would have made
his half salary realize him about $780,
| 600 each month.

LOOK GUT FOR FIRE.

To Theater Owners. Managers and Whom it
May Concern
This is to certify that have equipped the
Windsor theater in this city with the Lind
gren stationary chemical fire engines. After
examining all other systems of fire protection,
and after repeated tests of the Lindgren sta
tiOnary chemical fire engine, and upon the re-
commendatiOn of the insurance under-writ-
ers, 1 have no hesitation in pronouncing it
the cheapest and most powerful, as well as
perfect, fire protection for theaters ever in
vented. In my opinion every theater ard
opera house in the United States, as well as
Europe, should be equipped with these chem
ical fire engines, and thus save the loss of life
and thousands of dollars in property,
Respectfully.

Tacoma, Wash, Sept. 19, 1899,
To Whom it May Concern;
This is to certify that |. George A. urbank,
witnessed the exhibition of the Lindgren
chemical engine test to-day, and as l have
witnessed great many such chemical tests
in New York City, Boston, Mass, and other
large cities in the East, l hereby state that it
was the quickest and most satisfactory test.
and was also pronounced so by two of our
councilmen and all the citizens present, and |
will also state that the time of applying the
chemical was left entirely to me and l did not
give the word until the fire was well started,
for in other tests l have witnessed they have
always put the chemical on the minute the
fire was started and water would answer just
as well, as there was nothing but the fame
started and the wood not eharred, and take
great pleasure in recommending the Lind
gren" as far superior to any other "Chemical'
engine on the market.

A TRAIN
Race Between a Passenger Train and
n CabOose.

A Green River special of April 25 says:
As the east bound passenger which left
Ogden at 10 o'clock this morning was
pulling into this place the caboose of a
freight train ahead broke loose and met
the regular passenger IN a curve. The
engeneer noticed it coming when about
200 yards distant and Immediately re-
versed and ran backward for many miles
to avoid a collision. The race was ex-
citing. All the passengers were in fright
lest the train in backing should come in
contact with any engine following. The
grade being remarkably steep it was i'm
possible to stop the caboose by means OF
breaks and the passenger engineer was
continually blowing the whistle to warn
any train in the rear. At a point about
twelve miles below this place the caboose
was stopped on a comparatively level
grade. There were twelve cars on the
passenger train, drawn by two loeomo-
tives, and the carefulness and nerve of the
two engineers avoided an accident. The
passenger train was 50 heavy that one en-
CINE could not hold it on the steep grade.
The engineers were heroes. There were
about 400 people on the train. Some
frightened people jumped from the train
at different points when it was thought
the car would strike the engine and they
were picked up at various places on the
way back. The train was delayed one
