FIRE FIGHTERS
Save a Little Colorado Town From
Destruction

DENVER, Sept. PA special to the
Republican from Steamboat Springs,
Col, says:
Hahn's Peak the county seat of Routt
county, has been for several days threat
eped with destruction by fire. The fire
was started by camp fire left by tour
lists in that vicinity. The district court
is now in sessions and the population of
the town Is augme nted from its usual
dozen inha bitants to several hundred
To this fact alone is due the saving OF
the town, and last night not man slept,
but from Judge Rucker to the jury every
man was fighting fire. At one time the
flames came to within few feet of the
court house. With careful watching all
danger is now considered past.

CLOCK THAT LIGHTS THE FIRE.
From The Macon Telegraph.

From The Macon Telegraph.
One Of the most ingenious as we'll as useful
contrivances ever invented is a clock with at
tachments that not only wake person at
night but also strike a light in the room and
kindle fire. The clock is the invention OF
Thomas w. Hunt. of Macon. and is certain to
become a household necessity If a person
wants to get up at $50 o'clock in the morning
all that is necessary is to set the alarm the
clock for that hour and adjust the light and fro
attachments. Promptly at $3.50 the alarm will
awake the sleeper, light a candle that is at
tached and kindle a fire in the CRATE. The
clock works perfectly. and Mr.. Hunt has already

dramatized version OF tho novel. The author
has taken the two principal characters Of the
novel. as well as the motive of their relation te
each other and made an independent drama Of
new incidents and fresh surroundings. just as
ne might have taken two characters from his
tory and constructed thereon play which could
otherwise have no claims 10 historical truth.
The two principal characters Of this drama
represent. the author thinks. types which have
been brought into existence by the latter half OF
the nineteenth century-the educated girl who
has to fight the battle of life in professions
which ere usually controlled by men. and the
young clergyman who makes an effort to realize
in a literal sense the precepts of the Sermon on
the Mount But the social and religious prob
lens which surround the steps of these charac-
ters in the novel are not dwelt upon in the play,
which is simply a story Of love.
"The motto chosen for the play is from a SON
net Of Rossetti on his own drawing Of Mary of
Magdaa at the door Of Simon the Pharisee. In
the drawing Mary has left festal procession
and is seen tearing wreath Of roses from her
hair and ascending. by sudden impulse. the
steps Of the house wherein she sees the face Of
the Christ. Her lover has followed her and is
trying TO draw her back. Though it is not in
tended that there should be any other parallel
with the subjects of the drawing. it is hoped
that the touching and beautiful lines of the
poem express the motive Of the play-the spir-
itual conflict in the heart of a true woman who
stands between the beauty and brightness Of the
world and the sternness of sef-sacrifice, between
the chaple: of flowers and the crown of thorns
and chooses at length the crown of thorns when
the chaplet of flowers looks farest. And this is
in some sort the story of humanity, the human
comedy, the warfare wa6ed in the hearts of all"
No new play and collection of new plays
can make the theatre goers of New York indif-
ferent to the return of Joseph jefferson. He
promises nothing novel. but his visits few
and so short that the demand for the plays in
which he has long been famous is never salts
