The silver blade. (Rathdrum, Idaho) 1895-1903, 1899-04-29


Works yesterday two men were killed,
two others are unaccounted for and one
woman was fatally injured. A score OF
persons were more or less seriously in
jured.
Two Explosions.
There were two explosions. The first
occurred at 1855 and the second few
minutes later. The factory is total
wreck and the buildings for the distance
of half the square on both sides of Cal
lowhill street were partially demolished.
So far as can be learned there were but
six men in the chemical works when the
catastrophe occurred. One of these was
blown high in the air and his body struck
the ground at distance of 25 yards from
the mill, another was burned almost to a
crisp.
Adjoining the Fleers establishment was
a grocery store owned by Arthur Dona-
hue. Two boarders are said to have been
asleep in the upper part of the house and
they have not been accounted for. Mrs
Donahue, the grocer's mother, was so bad
ly injured that her death is momentarily
expected.
On the opposite side Of the street, in the
dwelling of Mrs. Glideson, burning benzine
ignited the clothing of Mrs. Glideson and
that Of her child. With the infant in her
arms she ran screaming into the street
enveloped in flames. Firemen and hospital
surgeons FASTENED to her assistance and
she was conveyed to the hospital in an
ambulance.
1t is impossible to estimate the loss
Fully one hundred houses are more OF
less damaged.

@. A. II. Annual Report.

The annual report of Gen. c. V. r..
Pond for the year ending Dec. 81, 1898,
places the present membership of the
q. A. Il. in this state at 1851, rs
against 1881 at the close of the pre-
ceding year, showing net loss for the
year of 800. AS matter of fact there
was loss of 34S by death during the
year, and therefore there has really
been a gain in membership of As.
There were received during the year
by muster, 534; by transfer, 252; by re-
instatement, 553 -Four posts have been
organized and three have surrendered
their charters The losses in member
ship during the year have been by
suspension, 954; by tranfer, 2l0; death,
a4S; honorable discharge, 60; by dis
banded posts, SO. Over 81, 900 has been
expended from post funds for the re-
lief OF over 200 families of soldiers, and
this amount does not include n large
relief given by individual members of
the order and by the Woman's Relief
Corps, which will probably amount to
1000 additional.

STATE LEGISLATURE.

The following bills have been signed
by the governor: Muskegon school

ing those four Crawford county town
ships, over which there was so much
trouble; relief of the treasurer of
Home, Montcalm county; detaching
certain territory from West Bay City
and attaching it to Bangor, Bay county.
Collingwood's bill for a state print
ing office and for the use of the allied
trades printing label on all state print
ing has been reported out favorable in
the senate and placed on the general
order. Aside from this little business
was transacted as the members wanted
to attend the discussion of the Atkin-
son bill in the house.
The Atkinson bill got a body blow
in the house by the adoption of a reso-
luton to refer all taxation measures
TO three of the regular house commit
tees, who in turn should bring in q
compromise tax bill to cover all kinds
of property. The committees to whom
the bill goes are almost solidly against
the present bill.
The house judiciary committee made
a favorable report on Pop" Goodell's
bill proposing an amendment to the
constitution which would hold the
salaries of Wayne circuit judges down
to $1,000. The bill got a unanimous
vote on third reading and was given
immediate effect. 1t then went to the

Three Great .sTraitors. !"

There must be something wrong
with the American people when
they openly express their admira-
ton for such traitors to the Stars
and Stripes as Dewey, Funston and
Lawton are.
Dewey declares that "the only
way to settle the instruction and
assure prosperity to the archipelago
is to oonoede self-government to
the inhabitants" And the other
day he reiterated his opinion twice
officially given to the Navy De-
partment, that "the Filipinos are
moro capable of self-goyernment
than the Cubans."
Gen. Funston said: 81 believe a
little diplomacy would go long
way toward settling the trouble"
Gen. Lawton, the Indian fighter
and hero of the Santiago CAM
paign, says: what we want is to
stop this accursed war, 1t is time
for diplomaoy-time for mutual
understandings"
Really it is getting to be ser
ious matter.
These TRAITORS" who somehow
seem to have gotten so close to the
hearts of the whole American ma
ton must be unprecedented
