Washington, II. Officials Of the

deaths. This will amount To $4,000 600

And the soldiers march away
To the slow drumbeat Of Time.

requiem sublime:
With the flag wrapped round about
The flag they kept on high
And a memory of the battle shout.
And war CLEAN in the eye.
But the time has not yet come
And the moment is not yet
When with intricately added sum
The land has paid it's debt,
For the land they helped To- save.
With a last and long embrace
Will receive each form to an houored
grave,
To an honored resting place,
When they sleep that last long sleep
II there comes to them dream
1t viii be that we shall forever keep
Their glory in full CLEAN.
As the soldiers march away
As the ranks show gaps, and wanc--
There shall be no one TO arise and say
That the purse Will show it's gain
But the land win count its loss
And the figures shall he great,
And the sum Of il shall reach across
The land from State to State
When at last there comes the end
When we carve the final name
Then our loss and gain shall be boldly
penned

NINE MEN ARE MISSING.
Five Charred Bodies Taken From Ruins OF
Burned Hotel.

Spokane, Jan. PA special from
Morrissey, B. O., says four men were
burned to death in a fire which de,
stroyed the Pioneer hotel there last
night. 1t is believed there are other
bodies to be found, as Eve men who
were known to have been in the hotel
last night have not been accounted for
today.
The hotel was large wooden struct-
ure and had about 20 guests in it when
fire started in the saloon on the ground
floor, through the overturning OF a
lamp, the flames OF which quickly COM
munieated to the wooden partitions and
stairway. The proprietor, A. johnson
seeing that the building was doomed,
ran upstairs and hastily aroused the
sleeping men while the flames were
rapidly eating up the lower floor wood
work and coming up the stairway. In
their Rightclothes, dazed by smoke and
flames, the guests rushed from the
burning fretrap. 1t was impossible to
reach all the rooms and johnson final
ly made his escape after heroic rescue
work. He was assisted by his bar
tender.
There is practically no fire fighting
machinery in the little town and the
horror stricken citizens could only stand
idly Ey and wait for the flames to sub
side. The wind was blowing away from
the town and no other buildings were
endangered.
AS soon as the dying fire permitted,
search of the ruins was made. Four
charred bodies we're taken out but were
so badly burned that identification is
practically impossible. The propriet-
or's loss is 81, 700, half insured.
Morrissey is small town with per-
haps 800 inhabitants. 1t has sprung
into being since the opening of the coal
mines operated by the Great Northern
railway company. 1t is about As miles
north of the international boundary
line. About 800 miners work in the
coal properties. The guests at the
hotels were largely miners, timbermen
and prospectors.

CHINESE TRICKERY.
Exaggerate Reports of Rebellion to Gel
Aid from French Troops.

New York, Jan. 2I.--In reference to
the reported serious rebellion in the
Kwang 81 province, dispatch to the
Times from Shanghai by way Of Lon
don says that the native press states
that the provincial governor, Wang Chi
Chun, purposely permits an increase
of brigandage, magnifying the opera
tions of the local banditti into SER
ious rebellion with the deliberate pur-
pose of afterwsrd invoking the assist
arce of the French troops.
Stress is laid upon the governor e
former record in the Nganwhis pro-
vince and elswehere. and his notorious
capacity for venality. His recent
decoration by the French government
does not escape comment.
The dispatch also announces that in
response to the memorial presented to
the throne by Viceroy Yuan Shih Xxi,
Sheng is permitted to retain control
of the government telegraph system to
allow of his winding up the financial
