golf parks on that side of the river,
which would kill the base ball inter

HALL At
KANSAS CITY BURNED.

The building was erected in 1898 at a
cost of 1926, 900, which was raised en-
tirely by public subscription. 1t occu-
pied piece of ground 314 by 200 feet
in extent, was two stories high and
built of native stone, cream brick and
terra Gotta. The first story was of the
renaissance style of architecture and
the second story in peristyle form,
with groups and columns. The build
ing was of bridge construction without
a column, the roof being supported by
great steel Orders. It's ground seating
arrangement was modelled somewhat
upon the plan of the Metropolitan
Opera House, New York. The floor
space was divided into arena, arena
balcony, balcony and roof garden,
boxes skirting the arena and the arena
balcony The total seating capacity of
the building was nearly twenty thou
sand, and with standing room the
building was capable OF holding more
than $4,000 people. The arena alone
seated 1000. The building had no
stairways, the upper seatings being
reached by means of inclined planes.
Separate exits were used for the bal
cony and roof garden, and it is esti
mated that the hall could be emptied
at the rate of 5000 people a minute.
WILL BE REBUILT.
That Convention Hall will be re-
built, and before July 4, was settled
at the meeting this evening of the
Board of Directors of the Convention
Hall Company. That the necessary
funds will be subscribed, is not even
questioned. Early tomorrow morn
ing a force of men will be sent into
the ruins to begin the work Of clear
ing away tht debris. Tonight the di-
rectors are in Geographic communica-
ton with iron and steel men through
out the country in an e9deavor to Sc
cure the necessary structural iron and
steel. The securing of this material
is the one question that is causing
uneasiness.
d. However, even though the iron men
should prove unequal to the emer-
geacy, it is believed that the hall can
be rebuilt in time for the convention
by putting on temporarily light roof,
supported by wooden columns. This
is being discussed tonight.

The local management announces
that this is positively the last week
for the sale of season books, and it is
desired that patrons will take at least
twenty of them. The management GER
tainly deserves this much at least, in
dependent of the fact that the tickets
are sold at very low rate and are
transferable. The purpose of selling
them at this time is to secure posses
sion of limited sum of money which
is necessary to the opening of the sea-
son.
The efforts to provide a winning
club, which includes the purchase of
players, advance money and transpor-
tation, has already cost several hum
bred dollars, exclusive of the guar
antee fund.- which swells the aggre-
gate to about $1,000. This amount has
been made up almost entirely by the
efforts of Messrs Healy and Lyle, and
they feel that lovers of the game
should be more liberal in purchasing
the books. Thirty season books does
not speak well for the liberality of
the base ball lovers in community
the size of Wheeling. The team is be-
lieved to be winner, and is conceded
TO be the best advertisement a city can
have.
Lovers of the game should take up
the remainder of the season books, and
thereby materially assist the manage
ment. Fans" who have not been
called upon personally, can secure the
books by dropping note to the man
agement.

Kills the Bugs.

A correspondent in Jefferson coun-
ty has been making some experiments
with very caustic compound as an
insecticide and says Of it: Il have
been using potash or concentrated
lye in new way lately, at least to
me. l use the pulverized sort put up
in small tin boxes, by dissolving two
tablespoonfuls in three gallons of
water and spraying the plants thor
oughly with. the solution. 1t does not
injure even the most delicate plant
and for the greater number it could
be used much stronger. For the
mealy bug, aphis, red spider and al
most all insects infesting plants it is
sure death. The use Of the potash
also keeps the leaves bright and clean
and is useful to remove the black
scum which sometimes gathers on the
leaves of greenhouse plants. 1t also
acts as fertilizer, making the plants
more vigorous and fioriferous. AS q
spray or wash for fruit trees it is of
great value. l would also advise
gardners to try it for the cabbage
worm. as it is non-poisonous, unob-
jectionable and sure remedy"
AS we have often said before, to-
bacco dust will kill the woody aphis
about the roots of apple and plum
trees, prevent others from infesting
them and fertilize the trees all at the
same time. The tobacco must be in
the form of dust or powder and
should be placed around the trees in
the spring just as soon as settled
warm weather appears. 1t is to be
applied by removing the earth from
around the tree to the depth of three
or four inches and for space of two
or three feet, filling in from three to
six pounds of tobacco dust evenly
distributed and covering it over with
the earth again SO as to prevent wash
ing or blowing away. This should be
done each spring, but one-half the
amount of tobacco will be proper
after the first application. Irrigation
will not detract from this remedy

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
fleet to Send Delegates to the State
Convention.

Saturday afternoon the Democrats
of Fremont County met in convention
at the court house. Considering that
it was Democratic gathering it was
a good sized crowd. The committee
on credentials found 33 people entitl-
ed to seats but quite number failed
to appear on the scene, as at no time
were that many seats occupied.
P. T. Mcclure Of Florence, was
elected chairman, and Ed Minor, until
recently of the Populist party, was
chosen secretary. As is customary
in such conventions, the work was
done by committees. The following
delegates were selected to represent
Fremont county in the State Demo
cratic convention: julius McCand-
less, Albert Guillinger. Lee Champion,
c. H. Newkirk, George Columbia, Ed
B. 10y, A. 7. Kinney. 7. H. Morrisssy,
Frank Rubey, W. T. White, M. S.

H. L. Cordsr, ]. W. Chamberlain, H.
T. Beckham, D. c. Champion, W. H.
Trout, Thomas Wells, Charles Pauls,
T. D. Palmer.
A little controversy occurred over
the unit rule proposition. A good
many Fremont County Democrats
have been compelled to do things they
did not want by this ridiculous rule,
and they tried to break away from the
yoke but without success. A motion
to instruct the delegates to vote by a
unit in State conventions, resulted in
tie. Chairman Mcclure decided in
favor of the unit rule.
At this point Mr.. Maupin's resolu-
tion booming himself for governor,
was presented and adopted. 1t reads:
''The Democrats of Fremont coun-
ty send greeting to the Democrats
and silver voters of Colorado, and
present their honored citizen, Joseph
Il. Maupin for governor of Colorado.
He has served his State and party as
attorney general with fidelity and
ability. As governor of Colorado he
would be safe, honest and efficient
executive such as would reflect credit
upon the State at home and abroad.
Firmly believing these things we en-
dorse Mr.. Maupin for the Office of
governor of Colorado"

One Of the most remarkable surgical
operations was performed recently ON

The Ethelwolf was bound from Hong
Kong to Canton, when lurch threw

steps leading to the nre room and
broke his leg. Dawson's mates made
him comfortable. and when port was
reached the leg was set The surgeon
gave orders to have Dawson sent to

man begged SO hard that the order
was not ~heyed. When the Ethelwolf

THE PLAGUE.
Precautions Being Taken By The
Colorado Board of Health.

There is little doubt that some
plague exists in San Francisco. The
Colorado Board of Health is watching
the coast carefully and is determined
that the Black Death shall not reach
Colorado. 1t has placed quarantine
on Chinese and Japanese and all rats
have been condemned to die. DR..
Tyler has issued a circular to all
health officers 1t reads:
Information has been received
from the State Board of Health of
California and from the health sfficer
of San Francisco that nine deaths
from bubonic plague have occurred
between March 6 and May Is.
Owing to this fact, the State
Board Of Health of Colorado has de-
cided to quarantine against the en-
trance of Chinese and Japanese into
the State of Colorado until further
notice, which will be given when said
quarantine is raised. Though not
anticipating any introduction Of the
disease into this State. we desire to
be fully prepared to meet it. The
two predisposing causes given by the
Marine hospital service are:
"First-Unsanitary conditions of
cities, dirty streets, alleys and filthy
quarters.
Second presence Of the or
dinary rat.
You are, therefore, urged by the
State Board of Health to see that all
unsanitary conditions in your juris-
diction are remedied, and so far as
possible you are urged to encourage
the destruction of rats. The greatest
source of danger of the introduction
of this disease is from the ambulant
cases. The Marine hospital service
states that it often occurs that the
first cases are 80 mild that the patient
continues to walk about for . few
days, thereby spreading the infection" "
