Fire in Blackyiiip.

BLAcKvILLE, Feb. 16.-Fire totally con-
sumed the handsome new dwelling house
owned and occupied by Mr. c. J. Martin
on Lartigue street this morning at l
O'clock The origin of the fire is unknown,
the flames having almost covered the
building before the fire was discovered or
the alarm given.
The fire department, consisting of two
chemical engines and hook and ladder
company responded promptly to the alarm
but, owing to the rapid progress of the
ire, they could do nothing. Mr.. Martin
and his family barely escaped with their
lives, and saved nothing OF the contents
except two trunks and rocking chair
The building was new one, had been
occupied by Mr. Martin about one month
and was worth about $3,5U000. 1nsur-
ance on building is $2,0c00O and on furni,
ture, household and kitchen $4,000.

Terrible Teddy.

DENVER Coll, Feb. 9.-Game Warden
johnson returned yesterday from Meeker
There he received from W. G. Purdy and
others the latest report from the Roosevelt,
camp.
Mr.. Roosevelt must be one of the
most daring sportSmen in the world,
said Mr.. johnson today. Il talked to the
men who were with him when he killed
a Eon with knifc-thrust, and in doing
so exposed himself to danger the average
man would not face for L million. He
does not wait for the dogs to scratch the
animal out, but rushes in while the lion
is fighting the dogs.
In the paticular instance related by
the guide who was with him, the animal
was large lionesS. She fought tiercely
and while several of the dogs had hel
about the hind legs and launches and
were dragging her backward she had a
vicious hold on another dog.
"Mr. Roosevelt sprang to the rescue
of the dog which the savage animal
seemed about to get the best of, and she
quickly let loose of the dog and sprane
at the arm of the hunter. He held his
gun in his left hand, and, quick as light
ming, thrust the stock into the wide open
Jaws while he found her heart with his
hunting-knife. The stock of the gun was
partly chewed and broken off, and he can
keep it as memento Of the closest cal
he ever had.
II would not think of taking such
chances as he did," added the warden
retlectively, "and he ought to feel lucky
that he did not lose the side of his face.
"Of bobcats, wildcats and other game
the Roosevelt record is far ahead of that
for lions, and Coyote Basin is devastate,
of wild game. Settlers have reported the
dcpredationS of lions on domestic animals
ut ranches along White river, and Guide
Golf thinks he has seven lions more
located which will fall under the gun OF
knife of the vice-president- elect.
Three of Gotf'S best dogs have been
killed in the hunts. One of them went
into den after lion and never came
out again. The others were killed in
fights with lions"

dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
cattarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the

fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treat

Governor McSweeney has fine oppor-
tunity to show himself governor Of
nerve and convictions if he will use it.
He should veto the bill repeating the
anti free pass law. He may not think so,
but, our word for it, he will make friends
among the masses of the people by such
a course Certain it is that no person
having charge of legislation which affects
railroads should be indebted to those
roads for courtesies. 1t is also certain
that railroad officials do not work for
sentiment They are out for the "stuff,"

Messrs Crum and Bostick, from this

Members of the legislature have nothing

Laurin is wrong, he can answer to the
