A SoLoN in the Kansas Legislature
has presented bill providing that
bachelors must either marry or go TO
the penitentiary. The average man
would rather go to prison than marry
the average Kansas woman, and If the
bill becomes law, a penitentiary will
have to be built in every county.

PREPARING TO USE WOOD.

DAVENPORT, Ia, Aug. NO Daven-
port factories have yet shut down for
want of coal, but they are beginning to
contract for supplies of sawdust, slabs.
ratings and saw mill refuse, to be be-
forehand if the Iowa miners should
strike. About all the coal being used
here m from the Iowa mines, and a
shortage would be inevitable if they shut
down for any length of time. Nearly
all the steamers plying the Mississippi
at present are burning wood and there
has been a scurry Of dealers to the hard
wood districts along the river to con
tract for the cord wood that is available
there. The Diamond 10 boats seem to
be getting coal in places, although they
are understood to be using some wood
also. The Coal Valley Mining company
is reserving all its coal on hand for the
Rock Island waterworks and sources of
supply are gradually lessening.

Explosion at an Elevator Fire in Chicago
Does Terrible Execution.
CHICAGO, Aug. Five lives were
lost and scores Of people injured in an
explosion which took place during a
fire in the Northwestern grain elevator
at Cook and West Water streets. -Four
Of the dead are firemen and the body
Of another fireman is thought to be
buried in the ruins Of the elevator. OF
the injured 81 were firemen. Besides
these dozens Of passersby were more or
less cut and bruised by glass and flying
debris. 1t was the bursting of
a boiler or the explosion of mill dust
that caused the awful havoc. The dead
are Jacob ]. Schnur, John j. Soogan.
John Strukman and Jacob Stramer, all
fireman, and an unknown man. OF
the injured several are expected to die.
Explosion Was Terrific.
The origin Of the blaze is believed to
have been in the vicinity Of the boiler
house. Just as the firemen were get.
ting into position for advantageous
work and nearly all the members Of
Engine Company No. 3 were mounting
the ladders and bringing lines Of hose
to play on the interior from the upper
windows there came a roar that could
be heard for half a mile and the roof
was torn into many fragments and the
walls came down with a crash. The
force Of the explosion was SO great that
the eastern wall tumbled down upon
the unfortunate men below and the
fragments of the roof were distributed
for blocks around.
Many Struck by Flying Debris.
Every window in the vicinity of the
elevator was shattered by the concus-
sion, dozens Of persons were struck by
flying debris and several small fires re-
suited from falling timbers that were
still in flames. At Jefferson street and
Carroll avenue, many blocks distant,
great burning masses Of wreckage fell
upon four wagons loaded with hay and
set them in flames. The explosion
stunned for a moment the police and
firemen, but they quickly rallied to help
those who had been hurt. Dozens of
men lay injured in the whitening heat,
some not seriously harmed and others
in the throes of death. It was danger
GUS work to get them out, but it was
iallantly and quickly done and all Of
the slightly injured were removed. The
dead We're, for the time, left where they
lay. The total loss. is estimated at $780,

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2l.-rhe
steamship Umatlln, which arrived TO-
day from Puget Sound ports brought
down almost 100000 worth OF Alaskan
gold, OF which slS6,7OO was in gold dust
from Seattle, consigned to Wells Fargo
Company. There was several other
shipments OF gold In sacks, some was
shipped direct from Juneau and advlces
from TINT place are to the effect that Mt
least $75O.O00 worth OF dust was await
ing shipment at various Alaskan sta
tons.
Among the sensational advices was
one from st. Michaels TO the effect that
over four millions In gold dust which
had not been included with the fortunes
brought mere by miners, would be ship
ped through the Wells Fargo Company,
other lucky miners having reached the
island since the departure Of the Excel
slor and Portland, who have secured
greater fortunes individually than those
whose stories have already been told.
Although the capacity OF the steam
ers Portland, which sails tomorrow Tor
ST. Michaels, and the Excelsior, which
sails on the 2Sth, is limited to about
eleven passengers, over 1000 appllca-
lions have been made for berths. Most
OF the disappointed ones are making ar
engagements to travel hence to Tacoma

week, but many must inevitably wait
until next spring and their d~isappolnt-
