who Is the son of an eminent London physician,
came to Colorado seventeen years ago for his
health, and finding that the climate agreed with
him he has lived there ever since. He has made
special study OF the effect of the climate upon
diseases-particularly those affecting the lungs
and his writings recognized au-
thority upon the subject. Now he is
president of the Colorado State Medical
Society. He said last night: 81 am a believer
in Colorado, but TO say that the climate there is
good for all persons whose lungs are weak is to
talk nonsense, for some cannot stand the eli
mate. For paper which l recently prepared
secured the records of about 5000 cases of con-
sumption, and divided them into two classes
where the patient had gone to an sltitude of
400 feet over, and where he had STAYED
within $500 feet of the sea Jewel. I found that
averaging all these cases there were three times
as many cures in the high altitude so the aver
age man whose lungs are affected has three
times the chance for life in high altitude like
that of Colorado.
"The cure comes because the bracing noun
tain air puts mans blood into such a good
condition that he is strengthened to throw off
the disease. The weak parts of the lungs which
might soon give way are strengthened TO resist
further iuroads, and the diseased parts are in a
measure eliminated from the system. The
fences which check the decay are built by purer
blood. Yet for some the air is too bracing They
are like horses which cannot stand the spur
81 suppose the great benefit comes about by
the expansion of the lungs in breathing the at
tenuated air. The lungs swell out to take in
this thin atmosphere, and the action makes
them strong. The highlands of Colorado are a
sort of gymnasium for the lungs, giving them
plenty of exercise"

Cordrax,s New Theater.

1t is an acknowledged compliment to the Irish
race, by representatives of all nationaities that
their wit is reader, their humor racier and
their repartee more spontaneous than that OF
any other people. "When fun and merriment
are required, give me the original, unspoilt
lrshman,' says everyone. And the preference
is capable of explanation. There is no effort
and no superfeality about Irish wit. 1t is
pungent, easily apparent, and lucid.
1t calls for no stunning of the
brain convolutions to catch the meaning. II

Cordray's is unique comedy drama OF Irish
life, in which the usual trials and fluctuations
are depicted but obscured by the bright sallies

FIRE In A TINDER BOX

ALARM VERY QUICKLY GIVEN.
Remarkable Work of the Fire Depart

two-story frame building on Third street
near Pine, owned by Lyttie, smith & Co.'S sash,
door and blind factory, caught fire yesterday at
12:45 O'Clock, and only the prompt work of the
fire department. saved the building, and I'M
doubtedly the First Methodist Protestant
church, almost directly adjoining, from total
destruction. As 1t was, the building and stock
suffered 500 damages, with no insurance.
Monday morning workmen put lot OF doors
and some red cedar lumber in the dry kiln over
the boiler to dry out. Yesterday when all the
men but one or two, who had their lunches with
them, had gone to dinner the lumber in the
dry kiln was discovered to be on fire. An alarm
from one OF the Seattle instantaneous Fire
Alarm Company's auxiliary boxes in the Sno-
qualmie hotel was turned in, and though the

very short time the eng.ne-room, which
was dry as finder, was in
flames and the whole building was threatened.

stream of water from fire plug at the corner
OF Third and Pike streets soon put the flames
under control
Chief Kellogg was on hand and though the
injuries met with at Front street fire few
days ago necessitated that he carry his left arm
IN sling, he cast aside the sling and directed
the firemen until the fire was put out.
For time it seemed that the whole block of
wooden buildings were destined to be reduced
to ashes, aud hosters in stable near by began
to get the horses and buggies TO place of safety.
The streets at the hour were thronged with peo-
pie, and the tapping of the fire bell and the
dashing OF engines and hose wagons, together
with the shooting flames, tended to
increase the crowd which conferred
about the fire, while the excitement
was at its height frightened horse broke loose
from a hostler and ran madly about the street,
scattering the crowds right and left. For few
seconds it seemed that surely some one would
be crushed and manned by the Infatuated ami
NAL, but he was soon recaptured and led away
few seconds later the fire engines brought
up on the jump; line of hose laid from a
water plug; the reel on the cable engine gave
out its lengths of hose; dozen firemen rushed
through the smoke into the burning building,
and little later clouds of steam took the place
of the flames and the fire was under control.
The damage was not so great; but it was
quite evident that had the mill burned the adj
joining building with the Methodist Protestant
church would have gone up making very dis
astrous fire. As it was the engine-room was
charred and the machinery and considerable of
the lumber stack was damaged by water The
mill building is old and dry, and being full OF
shavings and other infiammable material it is
liable to catch afire and be destroyed at almost
any time

and Fremont car lines on Pike street delayed
traffic almost an hour.

them of the invalidity of their marriage, advfs-
ing Adkins that if he really loved the woman ne

quested Adkins 70 go to either Judge Lichten-
berg. Judge Humes or Judge Osborn and get
their opinion as to whether his marriage with
Mrs. De Mers was legal. Adkins disregarded the
caution and took counsel of lawyer who ad-
vised him that the marriage was all right, and

The woman. however, saw another attorney,
who told her that a marriage here or elsewhere,
contaminated before judgment decreeing DISCO
luton of o former marriage was taken and en-
tered, was a nullity, and also that there was a
statute prohibiting marriage within six months
after divorce. She accordingly decided to go
home to her father, leaving both husbands
behind. As soon as Adkins learned OF her de-
parture he followed in hot pursuit by the next
train, but lost track of her at Portland. He is
now in that city and has written to friends in
Seattle inquiring for his lost bride Word by
wire reached the city yesterday that the woman
has arrived at Los Angeles.
