1t ought not to be necessary for Mr..
Windmuller, or for any other infuen-
tial business man, to reassure foreign
investors that we shall continue to pay
our honest debts in honest money.
The fact that it is so keeps hundreds
OF millions of dollars from seeking in
vestment in this country, makes the
rate of interest unnecessarily high and
adds millions to our interest account.
This simple fact should be clear to our

An Honest Division.

The Detroit Free Press says that there
is to be no lodging on the financial
question by the democratic presidential
candidate. 'The aspirant who now
talks of straddle might as well draw
in his boom and devote himself to his
private business. Though there is
division in the ranks on this subject,
it is an honest one, and the element that
controls in the Chicago convention is
going to know the views of the man
placed in nomination"

foreign capital seeking investment in

because of renewed confidence abroad
that the United States is in no danger of
adopting free silver at sixteen to one,

1t is recognized abroad that the strange
deIusion concerning silver has passed its
threatening stage, and that the major

against it. Hence the general feeling

FIRE IN FRESNO.
The First Baptist Church Burned by
an Incendiary.

FRESNO, Aug. 2.-The First Baptist
Church, one of the finest edifices of it's
kind in this State, located at the corner
of Merced and streets, was destroyed
by an incendiary fire tonight. When the
fire department arrived all that could
be seen was little blaze in the base
ment. A hole was chopped in the base
ment wall and the hose turned in. The
nozzle broke and the stream had to be
turned off for five minutes. The delay
proved disastrous, and the whole roof
of the church was soon in flames. A
strong breeze was blowing at the time
and sent clouds of embers directly upon
the business portion Of the city. Chief
Hart was fearful that disastrous con-
hagration would result, and sent fire.
men to assist the owners of buildings
in wetting the roofs, and by hard work
the flames were confined to the church.
The First Baptist Church was built in
1884 at cost of 50, 800. In 1892 it was
enlarged at an additional cost of 81, 800.
The furniture of the church was valued
at $1,000.
Late tonight it was learned that the
fire was Of incendiary origin. M. ".
butcher, clerk at the Hughes Hotel,
was attending service at the Presbyte-
rian Church, which is in the same
block as the Baptist Church. At the
first cry of fire he ran out, and as he
neared the Baptist Church he saw a
man running away with bundle un-
der his arm. butcher did not recognize
him. The fire started in the ante-room
under the north stairway of the church.
and it was this place that the man was

AVALON (Cal), August 2.-There was

ENCOUNTER WITH 4 BEAR.
AN OREGON HEROINE WHO KEPT
UP HER NERVE
And Finally Succeeded In Saving
Herself by Killing Her
ASSailant.

MARSHFIELD (Or.), Aug. 2-Miss
Jeanette Rose, Of Randolph, IL years
old, is the heroine of that locality be-
cause of her brave encounter with a big
black bear Friday afternoon. She was
strolling in an unfrequented place in
the woods near home carrying a rifle
with which she was shooting rabbits
and birds, when she came upon a bear
cub. Without counting upon the con-
sequences, Miss Rose shot at the little
fellow. The crack of her rifle brought
the cub to the ground, wounded and
squealing, and then, to the astonish-
ment Of the huntress, mother bruin ap-
peared on the scene and took a hand in
the affair.
The bear made a savage rush at Miss
Rose, who retreated with her face to
the beast, at the same time firing several
shot at her assailant The infuriated
bear reached Miss Rose with one of it's
paws, striking her to the ground. For
tunately she was accompanied by a
small pet dog, which, instinctfvely real
izing its mistress danger, began snap
ping at the bear.
This distracted the enraged animals
attention before it had done more harm
than to berak the girls collar bone, and
bruising her face.
While the bear was making sad havoc
OF the brave little dog Miss Rose arose
and fired again and the bullet pierced
bruins heart. Exhausted and bleeding
she succeeded in reaching home and re-
lated her adventure. Relatives went to
the scene of the encounter and there
found the carcasses Of the bear, the dog
and the cub, which had died from its
wound.
1t is proposed to send Miss Rose and
the hides of her game to the Portland
Exposition next month, where the heroic
girl will prove a great attraction.

MARSHFIELD (Or.), Aug. 1.-Two
children, aged s and 10 years respect
lively, of Lighthousekeeper Sheldo at
Cape Arago, had a narrow escape from
being drowned in midocean on Friday
afternoon. Mr.. Sheldon has a small
slliff which he uses in fair weather,
and the little children play in it when
The sea is smooth. The children took
possession of the frail shell on Friday
and started off for Empire for some
candy. They were unequal to the task
of managing the craft, and about half
mile distant they lost one Of their
paddles. The water was quite rough,
and the wonder is that their craft was
not overturned. Being born on the
ocean, SO to speak, they did not real
ize their danger, and with fearless lit
tie hearts proceeded toward Empire
with as much speed as one paddle
would propel them.
Instead of making any headway in
the direction of Empire they were un-
consciously drifting out to sea. 1t was
an hour after their departure from the
lighthouse station before the children
were missed, and a half hour later be-
fore Mr.. Sheldon discovered the skiff
TO be missing. He has a powerful ma
rine glass. With this he scanned the
ocean and discovered his little ones in
the boat struggling with a choppy sea
about four miles from shore.
Almost frantic with fear for the
safety of his children, Sheldon has
tened to Big Ben, where he secured a
large boat, and with the assistance of
another man roWed to the rescue of the
helpless children. Just as he trans
ferred them from the skiff to his boat
large ocean steamer passed within
Z0O feet of them. The steamer created
tremendous swell, submerging the
skiff and placing the larger boat with
its human freight in imminent danger,
but all hands reached the shore in
safety
