JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May 4.
JaeksonviIle's great fire has burned it
self out. One hundred and forty-eight
blocks of a beautiful city have been
laid waste. The loss will not be known,
even approximately, for week, but it
is believed it will amount to $4,000, 600.
There are many rumors af1oat of loss
of life, but as every undertaken in the
city was burned out it is impossible to
obtain an official report. One story
which is persistently reiterated. is to
the effect that a party of men and wo-
men driven to the docks by the fire
were compelled to jump into the water,
and that several of them were drowned
Mrs. Hogan, negro woman, was burn
ed in her house, and her charred re-
mains were buried by friends this af-
ternoon.
The burned district is thirteen blocks
wide and two miles long. and extends
from the st. Johns river. where it
burned ten blocks to the waters edge,
to Catherine street on the east Orange
on the north and Davis on the west.
This immense area was swept as clean
as floor
The city is under martial law. and
all of the available State Militia is on
duty in the streets of Jacksonville. Or
der is being brought out of the confu-
sion. Jacksonville is facing the emer-
gency clamly, and has organized for
relief work. Ten thousand people are
homeless, and many of them left on af-
ternoon and night trains for st. Angus
tine and other coast cities and nearby
towns. while numerous river craft took
many to places on the st. Johns river
Supply stations have been established
in different parts of the city, and all
day they have been thronged by the
hungry. The prompt action of Secre-
tary of War Root in rendering the
use of the barracks near st. Augustine
was received with gratitude on every
side. The East Coast trains leaving
here at o'clock this afternoon carried
to ST. Augustine over 1900 people who
hope to receive temporary shelter from
the Government.
committee was appointed at a
meeting of citizens this afternoon to
telegraph the governors of the various
States to send all the tents they can
spare to Jacksonville. It VIII be weeks
before anything like permanent shelter
sands. and Jacksonville for some time
to come will be a city Of tents.
The relief fund raised by citizens of
Jacksonville at a meeting this even
ing, amounts to $4,000 This was aug
mented tonight by telegram from the
Armour Company of Chicago instruct
ing Mayor Bowden to draw for $1,000.

FLORIDA PLEASURE RESORT
NEARLY RUINED BY FIRE

Other subscriptions are being received
from many places. Jacksonville will
not yet make any official appeal for
aid. There seems to be some objection
to this, but it is based on the belief
by many leading citizens that Jackson
vile and Florida can meet the emer-
gency and care for their own.
The following telegram was received
from the Governor today:

Wv. S. JENNINGS. Governor
At o'clock this morning Governor
Jennings declared the city under mar
tial law Colonel Lowell, or the First
Regiment, is coming with troops. The
following troops. in addition to local
companies, arrived during the day and
are on duty: Governors Guards, ITALIA
hassee; Columbia Rifles, Lake City;
Suwanee Rifles. Live Oak. and Gem
City Guards, Palatka. Major Bird
shaw. under Colonel Lowell, is in i'm
mediate command of the troops. The
city is patrolled and the entrances to
the burned districts guarded by senti-
nels. Military headquarters have been
established on the vacant lot behind
essary to enter the lines in any part
of the city
The suburbs of Jacksonville stood out
today like GASES in the desert of desc
lation. From Bridge street to Laurel
thin fringe three blocks deep stands
uninjured along the river front, but to
the eastward, northward and west
ward Of Hemming Park, an unbroken
bed of ashes meets the eye in which
gaunt chimneys rear themselves like
monuments in a forgotten cemetery.
On every vacant lot in the territory
surrounding the burned district fam
lilies are camped. Some had piled fur
niture about them, spreading over
them a blanket. making tent In
many instances this covering was only
enough for the baby Some had
brought a frying pan, some a coffee
pot, some had money to get bread; all
were shared in turn.
During the progress of the fire hun
dreds of people moved their goods into
the streets, but it was impossible to
get drays to carry the goods away
and furniture, books and bric-a-brac
were burned.
DR.. Stout saved lhis library by dig
ging a hole in hfs yard. in which he
buried his books, wrapped up In
blanket. This plan was followed by
several persons. Some buried their
trunks in the same manner.
Drays loaded with furniture and
trunks filed the streets all day. Home
less people slept on inprovised beds
near their furniture in quarters away
from the burned district. In the early
hours of the fire many people moved
their property distances of half mile
or a mile, only to find 1t necessary to
move it again as the flames approach

MISCELLANY

There is yet much to learn concern
ing the colors of plants and animals.
What is already known has been sum
married by DR.. G.. Bohn, French,
author Who offers the new theory that
pigment granules are elementary bodies
that precede cells and also in some
cases live in them. This theory, how
ever, seems to meet with little favor
A British Medical Journal writer finds
that the native pigments may be classed
under these FIVE heads: % Pigments
of direct physiological Importance
such haemoglobin, that gives color TIC
the blood, and chl6rophyll, the colorins
matter of green plants; ~ derivatives
of such pigments; 60 waste products
such as uric acid. which produces the
white in the garden white butterfly;
(D reserve products, such as are asso-
ciated with fats. including the coloring
matter of carrots, beets, etc.; 90 intro
duced pigments. such as pigment taken
up by a parasite from it's host, chloro-
phyll by larvae, etc. The known facts
are of great interest. The Micrococcus
lprodigiosus growing on moist bread
| produces the miracle of the bleeding
| host; the beautiful pigments of birds
eggs seem to be entirely derived from
the blood shed in the bursting of the
graafian follcle: the colors of fruits and
| flowers and autumn tints seem to be
associated with diminished assimilation
and growth; and so on. A wide fielo
of inquiry is offered in the effects OF
food and light, as animal colors have
been changed by food, and pigmenta-
ton disappears in. darkness and is SCI
up on transference to light.

Mazza, for forcing the fires under

separator, in which the heavier oxygen
molecules are driven to the periphery
while the lighter nitrogen ones escape
at the center of the machine, and the

A striking record is the summary by
Mr.. James McKechnie of the progress
in marine engineering between 1881 and
1901. In ten years the coal consumption
per horsepower hour has been lowered
from about LIS pounds to 1.50 pounds,
and the cost of carrying a ton of cargo
100 miles has been reduced from about
10 pounds of coal to 4 pounds. The rate
of travel has been much accelerated
Ten years ago the highest speed was
twenty knots, but now there are sew
eral vessels that can run at twenty-five
knots or more the German Deutschland
leading with an average of twenty
three to twenty-four knots. Torpedo
destroyers, with turbine motors. have
attained the enormous speed of thirty
six to thirty-seven knots. In size there
has been great development, and while
ten years ago the world mad only two
vessels of more than 10000 tons, there
are now fifty, and the number exceeding
5000 tons has risen from 81 to sos. The
| list is headed by the British Celtic, of
| 2O,SSO tons, and Oceanic, of 1924 tons.

Found Refuge in the County
Infjrm rv.

On the assignment in Judge Ambler's
court room Tuesday was the case of
Ohio on the relation of Miss Doubledee
against William Masters. 1t was Il
paternity charge brought by the girl
in the case. While the assignment
showed that attorneys represented the
case, when it was reached it devel-
oped that the records were in error
and neither the plaintiff nor defend
ant were represented.
Masters was present TO answer to the
charge, but there was nc me to look
after the" rights of the girl, and In
quiry brought to light the fact that in
her extremity she bad taken refuge at
the infirmary, where she had found at
least a temporary home. Her case is
pathetic one. E gsE .re
The hearing was passed in the as
signment and will be taken up later.

Naming the Baby.

We lately came across the extraor-
dlnary Christian names Of Suetonius
and Trinidad Orbegoso, the latter fem
Inine. There must have been some
special reason for bestowing such
queer names; but, even SO, it scarcely
seems 1ustifiable to name children in a
way that must needs make them un-
comfortable, particularly in their
school days. The choice of name,
however, is far more difficult than 1t
seems.
When one hears number Of young
people talking together. all their names
sound pleasing, yet perhaps there is
not one that one would choose for daily
and hourly use. And then when a
fayorlte one has been thought Of care
must be taken that 1t is one which
sounds well In conjunction with the
surname, and also thar the initials do
not form an unsuitable word. Charles
Urquhardt Barnard and Ralph Oliver
Townsend, for instance. are names
which sound very well in full, but to
use the initials would be trying.-Ex-

had been practicing law in the town
Of Lancaster for about four years when
Jnmes Higgins, merchant, was mur-

his wife, they were aroused at mid
night by noise down stairs. and he
went down to Investigate. She heard
angry words, followed by a shot, and.
giving an alarm, It was found that the
husband had been shot through the
heart. It was noted that nothing in the
house had been taken and. no prepara-

which had been left unfastened offered
the means of ingress, and the shooting
had taken place In the sitting room.
Mrs. Higgins was sure that there had
