etc, together with all Of his househol0
and kitchen furniture.
n. G. Sisson, proprietor of a large Tncr-
chandise store, lost buildings, househoIu

everything in the store.

The residences on Highland avenue
owned by T. F. Roby, Conductor Quinn
Rev Roth, Fireman Hanson and MISS
French were destroyed with most of their
contents. All of the type, Job press sta
tionery and some of the household goods
in the Examiner office were saved.
The fire is still burning, and in case the
wind shifts from the east to the west the
whole town may be destroyed. Several
houses have been scorched and many men
expect to work all night to save them.
One hundred thousand dollars will not
cover the loss. Giant powder was used
to good advantage in blowing up several
small buildings, thus stopping the ad-
vance of the flames.
Most of the business men will rebuild.
Hotels, lodging houses and restaurants
are doing a rushing business. But few
accidents resulted. A. F. Lindsey had his
collar bone broken.

There is merit in the proposition
to annex to Utah that portion of
Arizona north of the Grand CANYON

crevasse in the earth's surface forms
an impossible barrier isolating the
northwest portion of Arizona. The
corner of land involved would hardly
be missed from Arizona, and it's in

the lawless because of it's physical
separation from its own seat of

Sweet Potatoes: Culture And Uses.
(Continued)


The amount of manure required
depends on climate, season, char
acter of manure, and to less degree
on some other factors. Experienced
growers in localities where early
sweet potatoes are grown for market
endeavor to use such an amount of
manure as will keep the soil around
the bedded roots at about IS to SO F.;
during the first few days after bedd-
ing the soil is sometimes allowed to
warm up to IS or 90. In the Gulf
States the usual depth of manure is
to S inches, while in New Jersey a
depth of IL inches is not uncommon.
The manure should be rather coarse

eddy heated; when applied it should
be moistened, and then leveled and
packed.
The movable cover of the bed
may be either of litter, boards, cloth,
or glass, depending on climate, sea-
son, and degree of forcing desired.
Glass is most satisfactory when an
early crop is desired, but its expense
is against its use in many cases, and
cloth oiled with linseed oil is sub
stituted, Is After the
sprouts appear above ground they
should be toughened by a process
of gradual exposure to the outside
air, raising or removing the cover in
suitable weather. The bed should
be kept moist but not wet. If
necessary the bed should be watered
before and after the appearance OF
the sets, and should be protected a.
gainst heavy and cold rains.
If the heat from the fermentine
manure becomes excessive it may be
reduced by removing the cover Of
the plant bed, by making small holes
in the soil down to the layer OF

Taylor, Navahoe Co., Arizona,

Editor UNION:
Dear Sir: A copy of your pa
per fell into my hands the other
day, which interested me more,
perhaps, from the fact that St.
George was, for many years,
my home; and it is natural for
anyone to be interested in news
from their old homes-and I think
perhaps a few lines from one of
your old acquaintance would be
OF interest to you. This has been
an unusual spring in this country,
every thing is very late and it is
still freezing nights; nearly all
fruits are killed, and other crops
far back of what they ought to be

manure, or by the application O
water.
The preparation of plant bed il
which artificial heat is used is thu
described by sweet-potato grower
in New Jersey:
"SeleCt location where sufficient
rise can be had, say, foot in 20.
Build furnace of brick to burn
coal or wood; if you wish to use
wood build not less than 2 by feet.
The top of the furnace should be
depressed about 3 feet below the
bed and covered with soil so as to
avoid danger of fire. Take 3 rows
of S or 6-inch tile for fues and run
them about three-fourths the length
of bed; here we have hot-air space
about foot deep running all under
the bed. Cover this space with
boards and put board chimney at
the upper end, with damper to reg
ulate draft. Keep damper we'll
closed to hold the heat. Beds
should be about 12 feet wide and
from 4S to 100 feet long,"
On the plank floor of the bed is
placed under the potatoes layer of
about S inches of sand or soil. The
potatoes are covered with earth as
in a bed warmed by manure. The
tiues may be made of brick instead
of tile. AS an extra precaution
against fire coat of asbestus paint
may be applied to the woodwork of
the bed. The bottom of the bed
may be level, the slope of the ground
giving the necessary grade to the
flue, and the hollow space between
the bottom of the bed and the
ground should be closely boarded
in. BY excavating, the bed may be
brought down to the level of the
ground around.
PERIOD OF GROWTH OF SETS.
The sweet potatoes intended for
seed purposes should be bedded <
or e weeks before the date on which
1t is expected to transplant the first
lot of sets.
The sets are large enough for
transplanting when their length
above ground is q to E inches if they
are sufficiently tough to admit of
handling. If they are ready before
a safe date for setting in the field or
before the ground is ready, Oemler
recommends that they be detached
from the parent roots, and in a pro-
tected situation "heeled in" like
strawberry plants awaiting trans
planting. Their early removal
allows younger sprouts an opportu.
nifty for growth. At least three
crops of sets-three drawings
may be obtained, although growers
desiring an early crop may be able
to utilize only one or two of these
drawings. The sweet-potato plant is
very susceptible to cold, and the sets
can not be transplanted with safety
until danger of frost is past.

high as S93 in gold to the ton.
In order to work this property more

Not Caused by Heart Disease, as Mt
First Reported.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, June s.
The remains of Miss Mayne Worrell,
the young English woman who died
suddenly at the Palace hotel on Satur-
day, are still at the undertaking par
lorS awaiting some word or order from
her family or relatives in England
concerning their disposition. At pres
ent nothing is known of the young
woman aside from her name and adj
dress.
The mystery surrounding the young
woman and the object which prompted
her to make a trip around the world
unattended by any friend or chaperor
has not been explained by any infornra-
ton her acquaintance among the
steamer passengers are able to furnish.
and the autopsy has added no mystery
to the case. The post morten ex-
animation upsets the theory that death
resulted from heart disease.
DR.. Whitney was called in attend
ance upon the young woman, a few
minutes before she died and found her
in a spasm- The symptoms Indicated
heart trouble, and after her death DR..
Whitney expressed the view that heart
trouble was the cause of her demise.
Dr. Nathan found in performing the
autopsy that the heart and all other
organs were in a healthy condition and
the result shows conclusively that
death was not caused by any organic
disease. The stomach was removed
and will be submitted to chemical
examination with a view TO determin-
Ing whether death resulted . from
