on the deputies. He was finally cor
nered and in attempting 10 escape was
shot six times. He then surrendered,
md after his wounds had been dressed
{ vas locked up in jail.
/ Meanwhile the riot was raging in the
J street AS soon as the first shots had
: been fired the whistle of the electric
light Plant was blown as Il signal for
the citizens, the majority of whom
had long ago been sworn as deputies to
turn out armed and ready to fight Al
the same time the miners Of the Pana
and renwcll mines, which are located
about four blocks distant from the
renwe!l store, which is in the center
Of the town. rushed into the tlpples

N merchant OF New York, whose
place Of business was recently burned
out. has signified his appreciation of
the good work done on that occasion
by the firemen and the police by con-
tributing to their pension and relief
funds. In doing this he was actuated
by an honorable impulse, but it is ex-
tremely doubtful II the effect OF such
gifts IL salutary. Private rewards for
public servants who have done moth
Ing more than their duty may conceiv-
ably have tendency to betray them
into doing less than their duty under
circumstances which do not suggest
the expectation of reward.

The charge that college professors
are impractical is sometimes very
practically disproved. A Western
professor tried the effect of electric
lty In an endeavor to thaw out a
gozen water-pipe. To his delight. in
exactly twenty minutes full head OF
water was flowing in the house. The
pipe was heated to about sixty de-
yrees Fahrenheit The success of the
professors experiment induced gen.
erai use OF his method In the city
where he lived. A press dispatch de-
flares that speedy relief was afforded
without the tearing UP of q foot of
pavement, and his fellow-citizens no
doubt have concluded that the pro-
lessor is something more and better
than mere theorist.
