NOME HAS BIG BLAZE.
Alaska City's Temporary Setback
Amounts to S120,OOO.

AAaska C1ty's Temporary Setback
Amounts to $125,OOO.
Recently Nome was subjected to most
disastrous fire. The blaze started in
building at the corner of Stedman ave
nue. and First street and soon leaped
across to the old court building. Later
the Washington Trading Company's
building and the lieCampbell building
caught. The fire department encounter
ed the greatest difficulty in fighting the
flames owing to the hose being filled
with ice. Judge e. P. Ryan aud his
wife barely escaped with their lives, los
ing all their possessions in the way of
furniture and clothing. The total losses
are placed at $125,000. Business has
been resumed and the effects Of the fire
are not expected to result in more than a
temporary blow to the prosperity of the
town. The results of the winters work
prove emphaticaly that Nome is win
ter camp. Within radius of eight miles
about the city dumps have been piled up
which, on conservative estimates, will
yield 100000 and this in spite of the
lack of proper appliances and high price
of fuel. With an ample coal supply at
reasonable prices for thawing winter
work can be prosecuted on large scale.

resentatives of several downtown stores
called and identified the goods. Com
plants had been lodged with the detec-
tive bureau against a mysterious gang
Of shoplifters and four sleuths from the
central station were detailed ON the case.
After a weeks work they arrested Grace
Allen, or Ryan, and James Ryan, and
charged them with the thefts. When their
clothing was searched pawn tickets rep
resenting $500 were discovered.

Increasing distribution of merchan-
disc, particularly in the territory beyond
the Ohio river, including the far North
west, is Il feature of the general bust
ness situation, and tells of widespread
prosperity and confidence. The railroads
are carrying more goods that may be
classed as luXuries than before, and in
spite Of Wall streets slightly higher
money market there is no fear on this
score IN any line of legitimate trade.
Crop news continues good, there is less
trouble from disagreements with labor
and the long laggard cotton goods market
has recovered slightly with the reduction
Of unsold stocks of print cloths" The
foregoing is from the weekly trade re-
view of r. G. Dun & Co Failures for
the week numbered 1913 in the United
States, against 40 last year, and Il in
Canada, against 10 last year"

Battieship oregon's Peril.

The battleship Oregon had narrow
escape from serious damage if not fron.
complete destruction at San Francisco.
All hands were at work transferring am
munition to lighters, preparatory to the
ship going to Bremerton, Wash, for
docking when one of the big 13-inch
shells fell from the deck into the bottom
of one of the lighters. The men who
dropped the shell held their breaths, as
they expected the huge projectile to ex-
plode when it hit the lighter, but nothing
happened.

Iiceman Stays Him.
A. G. Peterson of Chicago was killed
at Rockford, H., by Policeman Sully
after the former had terrorized every
person in the Illinois Central station and
had narrowly missed shooting a number
of waiting passengers. Sully's act is be-
lieyed to have saved the lives Of several
persons. Peterson entered the station
with bag of doughnuts and revolver
in his hands. He placed the doughnuts
in the center of the floor and began to
fire at them. AS the passengers ran out
of the room he shot at them, too, the bull
lets just missing some of them. After
Peterson had driven baggagemen, ticket
agents and operators into the station
tower he shot at Policeman Sully, who
returned the fire with fatal effect.

DEAD AT HIS FIANcEE's DOOR.

Daniel Richards, aged 20 years, Of
Green Ridge, was found dead on the
porch of the home of his intended bride
at Mount Carmel, Pa, with bullet hole
in his right temple. Young Richards
was to have been married the same day
to Miss Elizabeth Walters, daughter Of
Harry Walters. The young man called
at the Walters house the previous night
and shortly after 10 o'clock started for
his home in Green Ridge, distance of
three miles. That was the last seen of
him by any member of the family until
his body was found on the porch the
next morning. The weapon from which
the fatal shot had been fired has not
been found and the police officials are
working on the theory that Richards was
murdered and his body carried to the
Walters home. Miss Walters said there
had been no quarrel between them and
that Richards appeared to be in unusual
ly good spirits.

ALIMoNY is NOT A DEBT.
Can't Be Discharged by Order in Bank

Can't Be Discharged by Order in Bank
ruptcy Proceedings.
Among the opinions handed down by
the Supreme Court of Illinois recently
was one of particular interest in alimony
judgments. The case was that of Alta
l. Deen VS.. Charles Boomer. Contempt
of court proceedings were brought against
Bloomer in the Circuit Court of Mercer
County for refusing its mandate to pay
alimony to his divorced wife. The pro-
ceeding was sustained and an appear
taken to the Appellate Court of the sec
ond district, which reversed the finding
of the lower court The Supreme Court
reverses the opinion of the Appellate
Court and afTirms that of the Circuit
Court Among the many reasons set up
by Bloomer for nonpayment OF the
judgment was the fact that he had been
discharged in bankruptcy proceedings
from the payment of alimony. Upon this
point the court says: "Alimony cannot
be regarded as d debt owing from the
husband to the wife, which may be dis
charged by an order in bankruptcy,
whether the alimony accrues before OF
after the bankruptcy proceedings. The
duty which the law imposes upon hus-
band and father to support his wife and
children is not such a debt as is contem-
plated by the bankruptcy act 1t is a
social obligation as we'll as pecuniary
liability; it is founded upon public pol
icy and is for the good of society,"

$4,000 in gold.
