The Worlds Fair Fire.

Chicago, January 8.-A rough estimate
of last nights fire at the Worlds Fair
grounds places the loss on the build ings
at about $500, 600. No estimate of the
loss on exhibits can be given until cases
containing the stored goods are exam
ined- At II clock the attention of the
fire department was turned toward saw
ing the manufactures building from the
impending danger of total DIES ruction.
Four engines were kept busy playing
on the burning piles, and succeeded in
subduing the flames and also putting the
agricultural building out of danger.
When the piling underneath the PERKS
lyle had burned away, the earth, depriv-
ed of support, gave way and fell into the
lake with crash, leaving a hole $50 feet
in length and 20 feet in width. The sta
tue of the Republic was left unframed
save fer little scorching by the heat.
President Higginbotham says: THE
reports have greatly exaggerated the
value of exhibits stored in the manufac-
lures building. The loss to exhibitors
will not be over 100000. which viii be
an outside figure. The damage was en-
tirely by water and smoke, and none of
the exhibits have been injured by fire."

The stormy cold days may be profit
ably spent by apiarians in overhauling
hives and giving them a coat of paint.
Advice is given by The Prairie Farmer
to make calculation of how many
hives will be needed and make a mem
orandum of it. Be sure that there are
frames for them all. See if there are
sections enough for another season and
cases enough to hold them. Examine
the smoker and see if it will stand
another seasons use. When the mem
orandum is made out, write for cata-
logue of beekeepers' supplies from the
nearest trustworthy apiarian who keeps
these on sale, and order everything
needed at one time. 1t will be cheaper,
and you can bide your time now with
much better grace than If you were
losing honey crop for the want of
them. When the supplies arrive, the
hives should be nailed, painted and
stored IN convenient place, with the
frames in them, ready for use, the
cases nailed and painted. the Sec
tons put together with foundation in
them, and the cases filed, ready to put
on at a moments notice. Care should
be taken in piling up the cases that they
fit closely one upon another, and the
top one covered closely to prevent the
accumulation of dust During the
press of other business it will take but a
moment to slip on one of these prepared
cases; otherwise, if it was not ready,
the honey would go to waste for lack of
time to prepare the case.

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
PORTLAND, MAINE.

At this festive season of the year, a
season at which each man vies with
his neigh Dor in the making of some gift
to the mem bers of his immediate family
and friends. it is peculiarly fitting, that
the UNIQUE advantages of Life Insur-
ance should be kept in view. The ten
dency of the age is to be PRACTICAL,
and it is therefore worthy of note by
those who contemplate making holiday
presents, that nothing can exceed for
beneficence and solidity a Life Policy
which will in the event of the death of
the bread-winner protect the Home and
afford nurture and sustenace to the
bereaved, be they old or young. 1t dose
not require any very vivid flight of
imagination to comprehend the possibili-
ties of ffty-fold return consequent up
on an outlay for the acquisition of Life
Insurance; whereas, similar outlay up
on something more pleasing to the eye
and possibly of perishable or breakable
nature could not afford the solid and
lasting benefit to be obtained by and
through policy in the Union Mutual
possession which NO family should lack
but one which should be treasured in
every home. deesseodtf

From the Experiment stations.

In an experiment continued through
three seasons at the Utah station a COM
parison is made of deep and shallow
tillage and no tillage for potatoes. The
average of duplicate plats for three
years gives the yield of large and small
potatoes on shallow titled plats as
206.3S bushels per acre; on the deeper
titled plats, 204.s7 bushels, and on the
untitled plats, 1867 bushels.
At the Pennsylvania station, in tests
of varieties of oats, the most desirable
sorts were Japan and improved Ameri-
can.
W. Fl. Caldwell of the Pennsylvania
station recommends as of most promise
the following potatoes: Freeman, Green
Mountain, Burpee Superior, Ben Harri-
son and Monroe County Seeding.
L. r. Jones of the Vermont station
advises the hot water method Of treat
ing oats seed, not only for the immedi-
CITE benefit, but for the eradication Of
smut from future crops.
Experiments bearing on the two
methods Of tilling and check rowing
corn were made in 1891 -92 at the Utah
station. Corn checked, titled both ways
and not hilled, yielded SO. "a bushels per
acre; checked and hilled both ways, SO
Bushels; checked, then titled and hilled
one way, 1884 and 43. 5 bushels; drill
ed and titled one way, 43.5.

power For these reasons this govern
ment must refuse to consider the propo-
sltion of Minister Willis. No allusion is
made by President Dole to Mr.. Willis S
appeals to their patriotism and moral
sense nor TO the terms of amnesty
secured from the ex-Queen.
The text of the agreement signed by
Queen Liliuokalani before Mr.. Willis
made his demand on the provisional gov
eminent is as follows:
Il, Liliuokalani, in recognition of the

sonal hatred or revenge, and to do what
is best for all the people of the islands,

myself that if reinstated as the constitu-
tional sovereign of the Hawaiian islands,
| will Immediately proclaim and declare
Internationally and without reservation

"LILIUOKALA
Attest u. o. CARTER"
An interesting bit Of news among the
Warrimoo's advices is contained in the
following letter from President Dole to
Minister Willis. No reply to it was
made SO far as the advices show:
"Slr:-l am informed that you are in
communication with Liliuokalani, ex-
Queen, with view of re-esta bljshing
the monarchy in the Hawaiian Islands,
and of supporting her pretensions to the
sovereignty.
"Will you inform me if this report is
true or if you are acting in any way
hostile to this government?
:" fully appreciate the fact that any
such action upon your part. in view of
our official relations with this govern
ment, would seem impossible; but ms
the information has come to me from
such source that I am compelled to
notice it. you will pardon me for press
ing you for an immediate answer.
Accept the assurance of distinguished
consideration with which | have the
honor to be, sir your obedient servant. .

PARAMOUNT IN THE ANTE ROOM.
My Commissioner Has to Wait Like ANY
Ordinary Witness


Washington, January 9.-Commission-
Ell Blount reached the Senate end of the
Capitol little after noon, and went at
once to the rooms of the investigating
committee, where he remained for a
short time. He said that he called mere
ly to pay an official visit to the committee
the inference being that his call was the
result of his summons to appear before
the committee as a witness. He re-
NAMED some time in the ante-room OF
the committee, and left after paying his
respects to Mr.. Morgan.
The committee today examined three
naval officers, Lieutenants Lucien Young
and E. Z. Moore and Paymaster Hobbs.
They were at Honolulu during the revo-
luton in charge of United States naval
forces, and after describing the move
ments Of the troops they denied any
knowledge of conspii acy by which
these trops were to be used to subvert
the monarchy.
The dispatches from Honolulu. by
way of Victoria, created an immediate
and painful sensation at the Capitol, par
ticularly among the friends of the ad-
ministration, who found themselves in a
most embarrassing position.
Il have not heard word of confirma-
ton of the story" was the reply made
by Secretary Gresham to query as to
| whether he had received any news by
the Corwin touching the startling events
in Hawaii.
Despite the fact that, according to
Honolulu advices, the Instructions under
which Mr.. Willis acted were conveyed to
him in cipher by the Corwin and Presi-
dent Dole's peremptory refusal to ac-
cede to the request for surrender was
| brought to the United States by the same
vessel, Mr.. Gresham gave every indica.
ton that the news now published was q
surprise, and seemed disposed to doubt
| its correctness.
The House committee on naval affairs
today ordered favorable report on the
| Boutelle resolution calling on the Score
tary of the Navy to state the authority
| for placing the United States payal forces
in Hawaii under Commissioner Blount' !
| authority. Chairman Cummings. who
will make the report. was instructed to
demand the previous question at once on
its adoption, as soon as reported.

ENTERTAINING TEACHERS

The Reception of Representatives to
 the Institute.
 The teachers of Phoenix are beginning to make preparation for the reception of visiting representatives to the joint county institute and the Territorial Teachers association which will be held here during holiday week. Messrs Fitzgibbon, Wollam, Cole and Misses Dobbs and Edmunds met at the Central school building yesterday afternoon to consider the matter of reception. Esti- mating the number of teachers who would probably be in attendance they further estimated that if the duty of entertaining them should devolve who'll ly upon resident teachers, it would cost them about $50 each.
 They, therefore, resolved to appoint themselves each committee of one to go among the citizens and solicit assist ance in the entertainment and recep- tion of the visitors. Another meeting will be held at 4 o'clock next Friday.

Simms Addition Lots.

A feature of the lots in the Simms addition is their size. They are all 200 feet deep and 100 feet wide. The price of lot in the Simms addition at first glance sometimes seems high, but when it is remembered that an amount of land almost equal to three city lots is meant, it no longer seems great sum. Twenty thousand feet of fertile land is plenty for fine home including garden, stable and all necessary lm- provements. As the deeds for lots in the Simms addition call for certain re- quirements in the way of superior dwellings, none but a high class resi- dence district will be the outcome.

Another Witness Against the Mari

Another witness against Armer and Rogers, the Maricopa train robbers, has been brought to the surface. His name is Liggett and he was found by Detect i've Breckinridge at Wickenberg last Wednesday.
 Liggett says that he was at Maricopa on the night of the robbery and all that Sunday. He met Armer, Rogers and Donovan and put in the day drinking with them.
 This would only prove that they were there and they have already admitted that, so it is supposed that Llggett is in possession of more damaging evidence which is being held for the trial. He is on his way to Tucson where employ ment has been found for him so that he may be on hand at the trial.
