the carpenter shop was several hun
dred dollars worth of tools but no at
tempt was made to save them.
The board of charities arrived at the
institution about 1890 O'Clock. P. H.
Dolan, of the board said: I have no
idea what the loss is. The building
will be rebuilt and equipped but L do
not know where the money will come
from. That is the question
The regular appropriation for the
fiscal year, ending July l was exhaust
ed on June l and the deficiency appro
priation of $4,000 passed by the last leg
islature is needed for improvements
under way. The board has no available
funds with which to rebuild.
Superintendent Hancock said: Il
place the loss at 1000 and think that
the building can be rebuilt and RENTED
for that amount" Captain Perkins
places the loss at from $4,000 to $12-
600 and Chief Engineer John Higgins,
of the school, agrees with him.
There was no one who seemed to be in
charge" said Capt. Perkins, land when
we arrived there an hour after the fire
started everyone was standing around
watching it burn. No attempt was
made to save anything and when we
asked them to lay line of hose from
the water tank we were told we could
not use the water because it was needed
for drinking purposes. 1t is a wonder
the other buildings did not catch fire
and If there had been httle VINO the
entire place would have gone. If there
had been anyone who was acquainted
with the place who would have directed
things the fire could undoubtedly have
been put out in the first place with
bucket of water or at any rate If the
fire hose had been in shape it could
have easily been extinguished. No one
seemed to know what 10 do and no one
seemed to know where anything was.
No one knew where any buckets We're
and not one was used until we ar
rived"
Supt Hancock gives no explanation
of the origin of the fire but the en-
ployes of the institution are of the opin-
ion that some one was smoking in the
dry room or that -a-s b-<ildin@5 was set
on fire.
Supt Hancock and the present force
We're employed by the present board of
charities and took charge June L None
of them are at all familiar with the in
stitution and there was no one COM
petent to give order with intelligence
until ex-Superintendent James Butler,
who lives at Shorey and who was Han
cocks predecessor, arrived. He assist
ed the firemen in finding buckets and
hose and in directing the operations.
SUPERINTENDENT Hancock endeavored to
give orders but he has only been at the
institution about three weeks and is
totally unacquainted with the place.

sented on the cure of consumption by
Francis Que Crotte, the eminent and

port of his statement he has offered TO
treat and cure gratis 500 consumptives

He comes to America with the highest
credentials from the most eminent ply
sicians and the press in Europe who
aver the truth of his statements.
The treatment is very scientific and
consists of inhalations of formaldehyde
Vapor, transported directly through the
tissues by the aid of light tension sta
tic electricity. He is establishing n
sanitarium at Pekin, Ill, and clinics at
New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.
Much interest was manifested in the
report and many of the physicians I'M
mediately took pains to interview Dr.
Crotte more closely on his discovery A
number of eminent physicians expressed
the opinion that an absolute cure for
tuberculosis had at last been found.
The sectional meetings continued af-
ter the adjournment of the regular
body and in the evening the Shriners en-
