aRALDwIND MoTEL DESTROYED
World-Famous Building In San Francisco
In Ruin and Two Lives Lost.

At an early hour Wednesday morn
ing the well known Baldwin hot at
San Francisco caught fire and was en-.
tirely destroyed. There were 500 peo-
pie, guests and employees, in the hote'
when the fire broke ont, and at least
two Of these people lost their lives.
For years the hotel, owned by
Lucky" Baldwin aud costing 3d.
600, 900, has been regarded by the fire
department as the most dangerous fire
trap in San Francisco Built Of wood,

"Should Curates Marry2" is a ques-
ton which has been agitating the &C.
clesiastical minds of New South
Wales. At the recent provincial synod
a motion was submitted by Archdeacon
White which recommended to bishops
of the province 'to require as a con-
dition Of admission to the diaconate
that candidates remain unmarried for
five years. The discussion natu-
rally trenched upon interesting facts,
as when reference was made to Rich
ard Bakers marriage with a young
woman who wished to be more close
ly acquainted with such a pious and
eloquent man, and also to n bishop Of
Durham who had married four times
and who gave to the fourth lady of his
choice ring bearing the inscription,
eff I survive I'll make it five" The
motion was rejected.

An extended study OF the phenom-
ena Of insomnia by De Menaceine,
Russian authority in medicine, brings
him to the conclusion that it is
characteristic of persons who blush,
laugh, weep readily aud whose pulse
is apt to quicken upon the slightest
provocation, remarks the New York
Tribune. Loss of sleep, however, he
admits, most frequently results from
overwork of either mind OF body; over
strain Of either kind dilates the blood
vessels Of the brain and eventually
paralyzes them, extreme cold produc-
ing the same results. Experiments
also show that exercise Of the emo
lions causes rush Of blood to the
brain aud sleeplessness, if occurring
near bedtime. THERE'S q common theory
that sleep is required in proportion to
the scarcity Of red corpuscles in the
blood, and thus all persons do not cor
respond in their need Of sleep, aud
many authorities agree that the need
81 sleep depends upon the strength o.
consciousness.

The forest fires which have ragged
in Colorado and Wisconsin enforce the
argument for forest conservation and
the extension Of the fire warden sys-
TEN. Protection would not cost a
fraction of what is lost through indif-
ference. This loss is not alone ia the
destruction of hundreds of thousands
Of dollars worth of timber, but in the
injury to the soil, which can only be
repaired in years, and in the loss of
summer moisture to the lands depend
ing on the slow melting of the snow
on the tree sheltered hills. The
warnings to take precautions come
periodically. The fire in Wisconsin
is the fourth large one in the north
west in the last 80 years. BY the
three preceding ones atleast $500 lives
were lost, and about rs, 900, O)J worth
Of property was destroyed. That
was the immediate material loss. The
greater loss was in the destruction, as
scientists estimate it, Of over Is pei
cent. of the fertilizing nitrogen in the
soil.

An amusing Incident Of DR.. Lyman
Beecher's student days was told in a
sketch of the famous clergyman, writ
ten by John Ross Dix over forty years
ago.
One night he was awakened by a
sound at his window, rs If some one
were drawing cloth through a broken
pane Of glass. Springing up, he dimly
saw his clothes disappearing through
the broken window, q thief having
taken a fancy to them.
Waiting for no ceremonies Of toilet,
young Beecher dashed out after the
burglar, who dropped the clothes at
once, and put himself to his best speed.
But Lyman was not to be easily Outrun,
especially when thus stripped to the
race.
After turning several corners, the
caitiff was seized and marched back
by the eager student. He ushered him
into his room, compelled him to lie
down on the floor by the side Of his
bed, while he, more comfortably en-
sconced in the bed, lay the night long
watching him, the silence being broken
only by an occasional Lie still, sirF'
In the morning the culprit was taken
before a magistrate, who was evidently
a lineal descendant of Justice Shallow.
The magistrate after hearing the par
ticulars, asked Mr.. Beecher whether,
in turning the corners, he lost sight Of
the man at ALL"
He replied that the man was out Of
sight but n second, for he was osose
upon him.
An. We'll" said the magistrate, IF
you lost sight Of him at all, you can
not swear to his IDENTIFY
So the man was discharged. Mr..
Beecher met the fellow several times
afterward, but was never able to catch
his eye"

Keeping MIX Too cold.

A representative of a Maine creamery
has been testing the skim milk of its
patrons, and taking the temperature Of
the tank in which the deep cans were
placed for cooling and raising the
cream. Very much to his surprise, he
found that many of them keep their
milk too cool. He found the skim milk
most free from butter fat when the
temperature was nearest to 45 degrees.
At SO degrees there was from one to
two-tenths Of per cent. more of butter
fat in the skim milk than when it was
kept at 10 degrees, or near that point

Texas Is a Great state.

A great many people want to know
how large Texas is in area. They look
In quite a number of alleged statistical
abstracts and never find the same fig
ures in two Of them. The official fig
ures OF Texas area are 252, 696 square
miles-equal to about $40 per cent OF
the entire area of the United States and
territories. Texas is six times larger
than New York. seven times as large as
Ohio. and 100000 square miles larger
than the eastern and middle states, in
Guiding Delaware and Maryland. Com
pared with the countries Of Europe, she
has "a, 900 square miles more than the
Austrian empire, 10000 more than
the German empire, and nearly 20, ZOO
square miles more than France.

A spring colt ought to be weaned be
fore the pastures have been destroyed
by frost At the same time 1t should
be used to taking little grain twice
day while it is still running at pasture.
The oat Is, of course, the best grain for
colts, as it IS also for the horse. 1t does
not take much oats or meal to keep a
young colt thriftily growing during Its
first winter If oats and corn are
ground together without the cob, and
some wheat bran is added, it will, in
most cases, make a better ration fed
with cut hay than could be got from
feeding oats alone. No corn and cob
meal should be fed to young colts, or, in
fact to any young animal. The cob is
extremely hard to digest and at least
for all young stock has not enough nu-
triton to compensate for the danger
from using 1t.
