PERISH IN THE FLAMES.
Connagration at Spokane, Wash, Re
auIta In q Number of Deaths

COnfagratfon at Spokane, Wash, He
suits in q Number of Deaths.
Spokane, Wash, Jan. 2e.-The Great
street and Riverside avenue, six stories
in height and constructed Of brick,
caught fire at 11:45 p. m. Monday and
in three hours was totally destroyed.
Eightlives, and probably nine, were lost.
The dead are Miss Alice Wilson, aged is,
employed as a hat trimmer; Maud Will
son, sister of Alice, aged five years;
Miss Rose Smith, aged 20; Mrs. n. G.
Davies, an elderly lady from Nebraska
City, Neb., who fell In descending from
the fifth story and died at the hospitaly
w. b. Gordan, a mining engineer and
expert; Mrs. Cora Peters and daughters
Ethel and Alma, aged nine and seven
years respectively. 1t is also thought
that her son Charles, aged IL years,
persisted, but there are reports that he
was saved and taken into the country
by relatives.
Mrs. Davies was living at her daugh-
ter's, Mrs. j. T. Pronger. They had
rooms on the fourth floor and were cut
off from the stairway and fire escape.
The firemen failed in their efforts to lift
ladders to the fifth story owing to
tangle of electric light and telephone
wires. Mr.. Pronger caught two large
wires running up the outer wall of the
building. He crawled down these to
the fourth story and managed to catch
the top of the swaying ladder, He de-
scended to the ground and was followed
back up the ladder by fireman carry
ing light ladder on his shoulder. This
was connected to the large ladder. Mrs.
Pronger caught it and made it fast to
the other end, and then descended In
safety. Meanwhile Mrs. Davies had
tried to follow Mr.. Ponger, but in the
dense smoke she missed the ladder.
She came on down hand under hand I'M
til she reached the second story. There
she lost her hold and fell to the stone
pavement. She was 72 years old. One
son, Charles 7. Davies, is a merchant
at Nebraska City; another, Rev. F. C.
Davies, is pastor of the First Baptist
church at Ottumwa, Ia.
None Of the remains of those lost have
been recovered. The four walls of the
big building remain intact and fire is
still burning In the basement. In that
appalling mass Of blackened debris lie
the bodies of the victims. The local
board OF insurance agents estimate the
total property loss at 1925, 900; insur.
ance, $136, 900.

Especial correspondence.l

biennial Elections.
The movement to secure biennial cleo.
tons has been started by Senator Titus,
Of Muscntine. He has introduced q res
olution providing for change in the
constitution, to have the legislature and
other state officers elected in the even
numbered years, the same time that
congressman and president are elect
ed, and have the sessions of the legisla-
ture in the odd numbered years. It
would be necessary to extend the terms
of members of the legislature elected
in 1901 one year in order to make this
plan work. Part of the state officers
would also have their terms extended.
The senate committee on constitu-
tional amendments has decided in favor
OF the principle, and will prepare a
carefully adjusted resolution to this
effect. AS only II of the 46 states now
have annual elections, some plan Of
this kind is pretty sure to be adopted
The time of electing congressman can,
not be changed, SO if the change IL
made it must be as proposed.
Woman Suffrage.
The advocates of woman suffrage are
making very strong showing. Their
campaign of the past year has resulted
in making many converts to their
cause, and they are represented in the
legislature by some very bright and at
tractive women, who have had expert
ence in politics and know how to com.
mand both admiration and respect.

Mr.. Harry Whiting and MR. O. H.
Logan have been here during the past
few dayb conducting = white lead test
which has been Of great interest TO the
painters and users of paint. The leads
tested were the Carter White Lead
made at Omaha and Chicago and tbO
Collier, one OF the "TruBG" brands
at 50. LOuiS. All materials used were
purchased from local dealers and the
measuring Of surfaces and weighing Of
lead and oil were conducted by the
home painters, M. ArdOry keeping the
record. The result shows that Carter
White Lead covered 13i square feet Of
surface with 14ioz. Of lead, while 1t took
15oz of Collier lead to cover 100 square
feet. The Garter surface was much
better covered and whittier. This proves
the Carter White Lead Co.'S. claim to
cover one-fourth more surface, and dc
1t better The test board has been
permanently placed at the southeast
corner Of Sherman and Walnut street.
It is q good object lesson to zee 1t.

nhazNew Salt Plant.

The new Morton salt plant expects
to start up this week. While every
thing is not yet exactly complete it is
nearly so and without doubt it is the
most complete and scientific plant in
its appointments and arrangements in
the city.
1t is operated on a different plan
from any other. From the wells the
brine is pumped into large settling vats
on the second story. Instead Of being
heated by a furnace from beneath, they
are heated,by steam pipes. From the
settling vats the brine is drawn off into
a long vat with the bottom shaped like
a V with trough the full length of
the bottom. Through this trough an
endless chain with scoops, rakes the
salt to the end and dumps it into an
other trough where it is taken up In
similar process and dumped into the
carts which carry it to the drying room
The system is an improvement over
the johnson rsker because there is nc
lost motion.
OF course this machinery supplants
human labor. Flesh, blood and nervous
system, is replaced with wood, iron
and black oil and thus another section
Of men are left without a vocation.
