A TOTAL LOSS
Nine-Room Two-story House Burns
to the Ground

The nfne-room, two-story house at 527
Ceres avenue, owned by Mrs. Colina
Schneider. was totally destroyed by fire
at 7:45 last night. The blaze, which was
first noticed by the officer on the beat,
burst out from doors and windows and
1T was evident that the building would
be total wreck despite the untiring
efforts of the firemen. No. 62S, belonging
to Mrs. A. Pitkin, seemed at one time to
be in danger OF burning, in which case
over half block would have undoubt-
edly been destroyed. After twenty min
utes' hard work, however, the fire was
under control, although the house was
a total wreck. Mrs. Schneider was
quite prostrated with fright and the
shock, as she loses everything she pos-
sesses with the exception of q few hum
dred dollars insurance. The house,
which was fully furnished, was valued
at $25OO. the loss Of which will fall on
the unfortunate woman. The cause Of
the fire is not definitely known, although
Mrs. Schneider thinks It was probably
started by blasting piece Of firewood
from the stove falling behind the wain-
scot In the kitchen.

Rev. James Lyon Young, OF Poineroy,
WASH, Runs Away to Escape Prosecu-
ticn.
PoMERoY, WASH, Jan. 9.-Rev. p.
James Lyon Young, pastor of the
Christian church at this place, has dis
appeared to escape the clutches of the
law for performing marriage cere-
monies without authority. and avoid
the disgrace of a public dismissal from
his pulpit. He arrived here last Octo-
Der from Ponca, Neb., representing
himself as a single man. He became
active in social circles and very popu-
lar, especially with women. Re-
Gently it developed that Young's
wife, Mary E. Lyons, lived at
Roxbury, Mass His photograph has
just been received, accompanied by af-
fdavits, tracing Young, first under the
name of Lyons as an Episcopal min
lister in Roxbury, Mass. where, it is set
forth, he deserted his wife and ran
away to Canada with Mrs. O'Brien.
Then he is shown to have been in Can
ada as a Catholic priest, then as sim
gle man and pastor OF the Episcopal
,hurch at Egan, s. d., where he is said
to have created scandal

The WORLDS IRON.

Uutil 1920 the greater part OF the iror
manufactured in the American colonies
was produced in Massachusetts,; in
1850 Pennsylvania became the leading
iron producing state and maintained
the supremacy until 1880, after which
time the lead was taken by Michigan.
A striking illustration of the value OF
labor. when bestowed upon a material
like iron, is given by the statement that
n bar of iron worth $5, when maDufac.
tured into needles, is worth S55; into
penknives, about $3.50; into buttons
S30,5O0. and into watch springs, $255,
900.
The amount of iron ore mined by the
leading nations engaged in this indus.
try has not varied greatly since 1889,
In 1893 the amount produced by the
United States was 1852, ,62a tons;
Great Britain, 11.203.476; Germany,
11,457,491; Spain, 5,407,54o, and France,
3.579,2S6.
The world contains at least four
mountains composed almost of solid
iron ore. One is the Iron mountain OF
Missouri, another in Mexico, another in
India and fourth in that region of
Africa explored by Stanley, and there
have been reports of such mountain
existing in Siberia.
Before the days of iron, horses were
frequently shod with straw. as they nre
in many parts of China to the present
day. In some parts of the country dis.
tricts of the Celestial empire many per.
sons make their living gathering the
cast-off straw horseshoes scattered
along the highways.
