have been engaged since last spring to
find tunnel route for the Central Pa
cific Road through the Sierra Nevada
Mountains are putting the results of
their work into shape for submission
to President e. H. Hartman. 1t liz
known that the route laid out by the
surveyors provides for a. tunnel 300
feet long, or nearly seven miles. The
estimated cost is $4,000, 600. It win
cut down the summit grade 1900 feet
and enable the Company to get rid of
all but three miles of the forty-two
miles of snqwsheds. The proposed
tunnel will pierce the mountains at an

A DISASTROUS FIRE.
Joseph Manfrina's Residence De-
stroyed Last Night.

Between six AMI seven o'clock last
night, flames burst through the roof of
JOS. Manfrina's house, mile above
Sheridan, and in a short time the large
two-story building was in ashes. Many
articles of furniture were carried into
the yard where they took fire and
burned. The only articles saved were
one iron bedstead and part of cook
stove.
When the fire started Mr.. Manfrina
had a big fire in the kitchen baking
bread and his children were playing in
the second story of the house. The
children are quite small, the Oldest be-
ing about seven years of age. Just be-
fore the flames burst out through the
roof they came down stairs and re-
ported the fire. Whether it was start
ed by the children or had it's origin in
defective flue is not known.
The neighbors arrived on the scene
too late to be of much assistance and
what furniture was carried out of the
house was destroyed.
The saddest part of the affair is the
fact that Mrs. Manfrina has been sick
for months and is still confined to her
bed. She was carried in her bed into
the yard and afterward moved to Dick
Fricke's residence in Sheridan.
The husband, when it was seen that
nothing could be saved, became crazy
with grief, and repeatedly attempted
suicide. 1t required the combined eff
forts of three strong men to keep him
from cutting his throat.
Those who arrived on the premises
first say that Mr.. Manfrina was not
drinking and was sober when the. fire
started, but when the COURIER report
er arrived on the scene, about O'Clock
he and some Indians were drunk.
The loss by the fire cannot be COM
puted at this writing, but it will fall
very heavy on Mr.. and Mrs. Manfrina,
especially as they have been under
heavy expense the past year on ac-
count of the protracted serious illness
of the latter Their house was one of
the largest in the valley, being two
story structure and at least forty
feet square. Not a stick, a scrap
of clothing or piece of furniture is
left, and all the trees and shrubbery in
the vicinity were killed by the fire.
There was no insurance on the build
ing, the policy having expired short
time ago.
| 1t is sad loss and Mr.. and Mrs
Manfrina have the deepest sympathy
of every one in the community.

able that the paper should not regard
his death as worth noticing.

NEW ORDER OF SOLDIERS.
Aims of the Organization Explained
by "Private" Dalzell.

Aims of the Organization Explained
by "Privateo Dalxell.
An old soldiers organization has
been started at Washington, and it is
planned to extend it all over the coun-
try and to take into it all citizens who
ever have fought for the United States,
says the New York Times. Speaking
for the new organization, Private"
DalZell said:
"This organization is intended to en-
brace soldiers of all wars and their
sons in a national political organiZa-
ton. 1t will not interfere with party
politics, religion or any other obliga-
tons of it's members. 1t will not all
tagOnize the Grand Army of the Re-
public or the Union Veterans union or
any other patriotic organization now in
existence, because the members of this
new organization belong to the others.
"The intention of the promoters of
the new combination, If it may be so
called, is to have organizations by
states, congressional districts; counties
and precincts, the same as the political
parties have organizations today. 1t is
the purpose of the organization to con-
troll nominations and elections Of men
who are favorable to the soldier and If
need be to defeat, without regard to
party, any man in the country for office
who has demonstrated hostility or in
difference to the interests Of the old
soldier of any and every war.
$50 broad is this new order that
President Roosevelt, himself an hon
orably discharged soldier of the United
States army, may and likely will be-
come a member, as will also, If they
desire, General Breckenridge and
Fighting joe Wheeler, although they
were fighters against the Union in the
civil war. The single requirement for
eligibility is an honorable discharge
from the military or naval service of
the government. Sons of eligible mem
beYs will also be admitted to the or
der. The Grand Army Of the Republic
Is prohibited by its constitution and
bylaws from interfering in any way
in the nomination or appointment or
election Of any person to civil office"
