TERRE HAUTE HAS 81 900, 900 FIRE

Big Business Block and a Number of
Small Concerns Destroyed.
TERRE HAUTE. Ind, Dec. 2O.-The
worst fire in the history of Terre Haute
took place last night, causing loss of
$l,000,O00. The blaze started in the big
show windows of the Havens & Geddes
company, wholesale and retail dealers
in dry goods and notions. The cause is
not definitely known, but it is supposed
that live electric wire set fire to the
cotton with which the window was
decorated, and before the blaze could be
extinguished, spread to the decorations
OF evergreens in the store and the build
ing was wrapped in flames in an in
credibly short space of time The fol-
lowing firms are the losers: Ravens 81
Geddes, $500, 1000; Breinig & Milter, fur
niture, $4,000; Pixley & Co.. 500, 900;
Terre Haute Shoe company, wholesale,
$150,000; Albrecht & Co., retail dry
goods, $4,000; United States Banking
company, 100000; Thorman & Schloss,
clothiers, $4,000 A number of small
concerns were literally annihilated in
Iue 1dll VI inc rear wall OF the HavenS
q Geddes wholesale house.
The fire started at $50 D. M, when
half the employees of the establishment
were a. ,neir homes for supper. There
is force Of 300 or more in the estab.
lishment, and had the entire force been
present, the loss of life would have been
frightful. AS it is, Kate Maloney, a
clerk i'll the notion department, is at tn.
point Of death. She sprang from
window in the second story and sus-
tanned injuries from which she will
probably die. Miss Luella Ferguson, Il
clerk in the same department. Jumped
just before Miss Maloney, but was
caught by some men who were watch.
ing for her. She is internally injured
but will recover. Louis Kramer, the
trimmer, who was in the show window
when the fire started, is frightfully
burned about the head and arms. When
rescued from the burning building, he
was insane with pain and wanted to be
killed. Firemen Austerlee, Walsh and
Shay were badly injured in the falling
of the floor in the Albrecht building.

A submerged island has been found
1000 miles due west from Gibraltar
which offers a curious problem for
geographers. 1t was discovered by the
Prince Of Monaco, and will soon be
placed on the charts issued by the Hy
geographic Office at Washington.
The sunken island was discovered
quite by accident by the Prince while
making soundings from his yacht Prin-
cess Alice, and the formation was ac-
cordingly named after the yacht. The
island is supposed to have been at one
time n huge volcano. Its shape. which
has been determined by careful sound
ings, Is much the same as that Of a
huge cooked hat. The island is in no
danger Of interfering in the least with
navigation, since its highest point is
some fourteen fathoms below the sur.
face Of the sea.-New York World.

cation they are taken out with an old

Little Roswell and Ruth Field seem to
to have inherited some Of their fathers
originality, for they are quaint little
beings, always inventing new games
and stories. Not long ago little Roswell

old sister Ruth had to follow. They

three miles from home.
One of the pranks of the Field chill.
dren took place some time ago when
the older members Of the family hap
pened to be all away from home. Ros.
well wanted to play soldier. so all the
silver knives and forks were tied to
broomsticks to make bayonets. All the
little boys Of the neighborhood hunted
up the broom handles and ROSY" fur
nished the silver. When the regiment
tlisbanded they carried their bayonets
away with them, and 1t was several
days before the silverware was all
hunted I'D and brought home.

The Russian dogs are chiefly trained
to assist the medical corps in their
work and to help In the humane task
Of bringing aid as rapidly as possible
to the wounded soldier. Big. strong
dogs are selected for this purpose. St.

most intelligent when left to their own
devices, and also the most faithful.
Attached to the collar around their
necks Is small flask containing
brandy or sometimes a strong, nour
ishing broth. A little roll Of band
ages, Of which the wounded may avail
themselves, is also tied around their
necks. The dogs are especially trained
to seek out wounded men lying in out
of the way places. where 1t is possible
they may be overlooked by the regular
staff attached to the medical branch
Of the Russian army.
If they discover wounded men lying
in bitches or behind bushes they allow
them to help themselves to the brandy,
and bark necessarily to attract atten-
ton and bring help. They are some
times used to pull small cart on
which couple of wounded men car
be carried off the field Of battle.
