Another Fire.

Wednesday, the 9TH inst, the
alarm of fire sounded to call the
department to the north side of
the square, where a fierce blaze
had broken out in W. w. Nor
gans produce establishment.
Those who saw it first say the
fire started in the top OF a barrel
full of some infamable matter.
1t burned rapidly in the old frame
building, and it looked for a while
like the whole row OF buildings
would go. 1t was confined, how
ever, to the middle building, al
though it crept along between
the floor and ceilings Of the two
buildings on either side. The
west half of the place is owned by
flames Slim, the lower floor oc-
cupied by him as a shoe shop,
and the upper floor by Ed Hotch-
kiss as living rooms. The east
half is owned by E. j. Dodge, oc-
cupied down stairs by Mrs. Will
liams as a dressmaking and mil
! linery establishment, with living
rooms in the rear. The upstairs
of the Dodge building was occu-
pied by l.. B. Eaton as living
rooms.
j Most of the contents of all the
buildings except the Morgan
roOm-Were removed. Consider
able damage was done by water.
$3.50 insurance on the Slim build
ing was all the insurance carried.
The water pressure was good
and prompt, and the fremen are
complimented on their efficient
work.

A Sun Motor.

A recent issue of the Scientific
American contained a long des-
criptive article on the recent in
vention of a Colorado man, which
is a motor run by concentrating
the rays of the sun by means OF
an arrangement of mirrors. The
motor has been run successful y,
and promises to revolutionize
the matter of cheap power.
Mr.. 0. W. Dawson is in receipt
of letters from E. B. Cowgirl of
the Kansas Farmer, at Topeka,
in which Mr.. Cowgirl says that
he has arranged to have one OF
these Sun Motors set up, on his
farm a few miles east OF Great
Bend, and it's workings demon
strated as a pumping power.
His plan is to thoroughly ad-
vertise the dates Of it's operation,
and to run excursions in from
the surrounding territory.
The Great Bend Commercial
Club should cooperate with Mr..
Cowgirl in this matter. We have
more spare sunshine going to
waste each year than any. other
part of Kansas, and if this power
full element can be harnessed to
a series of pumps and lift the
water that is underneath us to
the surface great good can be
accomplished.

Burned to Death.

Some time during Tuesday
night of this week, an old man,
a cripple, whose name we could
not learn, was burned to death
in his home about six miles south
of Ellinwood. 1t seems he has
been living alone, with a neigh
Dor farm house quite near, the
neighbor sort of looking after
him. Wednesday morning it
was discovered that the house
was burned down, and only a
part Of the remains were not
consumed. The old man was a
great smoker, and it is supposed
he in some manner set fire to
the house accidentally.

NOT GENERALLY PRAISED.
The Squatty Little Building in Which
the President Will Work.

President Roosevelt's executive force Is
installed in the new presidential office
building just west of the White House, and
the force will be in working order by the
time the President enters his office next
Thursday morning. The quarters OF the
President and the cabinet one large room,
are at the eastern end of the building,
which is one story in height, with cellar,
containing vaults for the storage of papers.
The room for the clerical force is at the
west end of the building. A small waiting
room and a large room for Secretary
Cortelyou. lie between the two. So far as
space is concerned there is little more than
was available In the old White House, ex-
cept in the additional space for documents
in the cellar.
The building has not received the ap
proval of many persons. Congress APP
propriated $50, 600 for it's construction au!
for furnishing. About all of that amou- t
has been expended, it is said, and tn.
building is positive reflection on the gov
eminent.
The interior is somewhat better-looking
than the outside, and the furniture is up
to date and attractive. These present about
the only features that are worthy OF no.
tice. The new office furniture of the Presi-
dent is handsome and substantial and in
keeping with his office. Outside of this the
furnishings are simple AMI lacking In dis
play. If the object of the architects in de-
signing the puiiuihS was W uiSSuSl Soh-
gress with it, and thereby-bfing about an
appropriation for Large .officsz building
for the President it is likely that the pur-
pose in view will be successful. How the
squatty little affair could have rpost sum
anywhere near the amount said to have
been spent Is marvel to all who chave seen
1t and looked through It, 'jc~ go -
The President will enter his office through
a private door opening Into the terrace
building that connects the White House
and the executive office. @The President S
movements will not be known TO anybody,
and he can receive as mary visitors as he
desires from that direction without their
presence being known. - Iii
The work on the White House proper still
continues. The entire first, foori is in an
unfinished state. The contractors are push
ing the work right alongtoE isTsaid they
would have ended the work long ago, or by
this time, 81 any rate, but fox frequent
changes by the architects an over the build
ing. fo@ -
