Though the Building Was on Fire Not
One Lost His OF. Her Head.

LOS ANGELES, March 3.-When the
fire alarm was sounded this morning
at the San Pedro-street school, near
Seventeenth, by Miss Adella Anderson,
the Principal, the hearts of 400 children
and seven teachers jumped and beat
wildly, but not a child moved. At
word all arose and marched out Of the
building. At times they were almost
blinded by the smoke. 1t was just ten
seconds after the alarm was sounded
that the children were standing in mar
tial array in the pelting rain out in the
schoolyard. Not one little tot lost his
OF her head obeying the commands of
the fire drill to the letter, without con-
fusion. The fire engines subdued the
incipient blaze, and only nominal
damage was sustained.

THOSE DEPRECIATION
CLAIMS

Deming Headlight
The United States Supreme
Court has affirmed the ruling OF
the Court of Claims in regard to
the Indian depreciation claims, and
in this connection. the following
letter, recently received by . resi.
dent and claimant OF this city from
an attorney at Washington, will be
of interest TO great many citizens
OF this section:
Dear Sir. regret to inform
you that, as long since predicted
bv me, the Supreme Court has
affirmed the Court Of Claims rul-
ing to the effect that actual 'amidy,
friendship or peace must oxist,
under the Statute, 10 permit re-
covery in the Indian Depreciation
cases.
The only remedy ia the present
condition of things lies in addi-
tional legislation Whether this
can be gotten depends entirely on
the amount OF pressure that can be
brought to bear by tho claimants
on their various representatives in
Congress. Concert OF action
throughout the west and south
might accomplish IL, but the task
is too great for = few individual
efforts, spasmodically put forth, to
make any progreas."
