" Y ERE you have The Sunday Calls
beautiful novelty art calendar for
1903. 1t Is brand-new idea in call
a ! en6ars, for it gives you three
complete calendars in one.
First, you have the big central
calendar, with its fascinating pic
ture of a perfect cherub of a child
framed with the twelve months of the
year. Cut this out. paste it on piece of
stiff cardboard of any color to suit your
own taste and you have a poster calendar
that makes a splendid mural decora ton.
Next you may have compact and con-
venient calendar for your desk by cutting
out the larger circle and pasting 1t on
cardboard or upon the desk itself. just
examine that~closely and see what an in
genious arrangement it is. You have
every month of the year crowded into
that small space, the only difference, is
that instead of having the days of the
month numbered to fit the days of the
week. the days Of the week have been
arranged TO At the number Of days Of the
month. Then. for your greater conven-
fence, The Sunday Call provides you with
a calendar which you can have with you
always. Just paste the small circle in
your watch. Happy New Year!

School Benefit.

A friend suggests that, inasmuch
as the Tonopah public school, even
with the extensive addition made just
preceding the present term, is over
crowded and inadequate, means must
be provided for one or more school
rooms. A benefit entertainment
might be arranged which the general
public would be glad to- attend with
such object in view. The liberal offer
by Messrs. Davidovich & Plamenaz
to give free use of Miners Exchange
hall for school and charitable pur-
poses affords good starter.

Under date of the 14th instant,
the Acting Second Assistant Post
master General, G.. L. Stone, com
municate ted to Senator Stewart as fol-
lows: Referring again to a petition
of citizens of Nye county, New,
transmitted by you to this Office for
the establishment of mail service di-
rect between Butler and Belmont,
New, / have the honor to inform you
that after careful investiga alton the
department is compelled to decline
to grant the request of your eonstit-
uents. There is a reasonably good
connection now between the points
named, via Junction, and the pro
posed route would only slightly i'm
prove the local exchange of mails.
Very few persons live on the line Of
the route who would be benefited by
box delivery facilities, and the de-
partment is of the opinion that it
would not be warranted in establish
ing the route under existing circum-
stances. Thus it does not appear
that Senator Bells resolution of the
last session in relation to this matter
carried much weight or influence
with it.

about it in her play.
Mrs. Brown had planned to
have a little birthday party for
Betty the next afternoon, and

her mama worked as only a

baked dear little cake which

have the cooking utensils put

mama was busy with something

Next day Mrs. Brown seemed
to be in an unusual hurry to get

SIX PEOPLE ARE BURNED

House Was Saved, and the Sleeping Ia.
mates Awoke to Find the Lower Part Of the
Structure In Blaze.

Elkins, w. Va. (SpeciaD.-In the
burning of a double house at Letter, a
mining town below Elkins, six persons
are known to have lost their lives and
several were badly injured.
1t is believed by some that seven per-
sons in all lost their lives, one other man
being missing.
The house was occupied on one side by
Thomas Coughlan and on the other by
Slas Finley. They kept hotel together.
The fire was first discovered in Miss
Coughlan's room and is believed to have
been caused by the explosion of lamp.
The flames made such Roadway that the
building collapsed a few moments after
the blaze was detected. Those who did
escape barely had time to do SO. There
were ID persons i'll the house.
Mr.. Anderson was foreman of the
Roaring Creek and Bellington railroad
operations. He and his family lived on
the Finley side of the house. The others
who were cremated lived on the Cough
Ian side.
A brisk south wind was blowing at the
time the fire occurred. The house was
built in himsy manner and the weather
boarding was dry. 1t burned like finder,
the flames spreading from one part to
another with astonishing rapidity. :,
The lower part of the house was full
of fire and smoke when the inmates
awoke. Those who were saved were
compelled to leap from the upper-story
window. They were sleeping soundly
when aroused by the cracking flames:
Arising from their beds, they Just had
time to run to the top story and Jump
out of the windows. Clad only in their
night clothes, they saw i'll few moments
the building entirely consumed and knew
that six of their friends had met death
In the blazing structure. Hardly an
article out of all their numerous personal
belongings in the house was saved.
After the ashes had cooled off to sonic
extent the search of the ruins began.
Soon the bodies of the six victims were
recovered. All of them were terribly
burned, being charred beyond all recognl-
ton.
Letter, where this tragedy occurred, is
a small town eight miles south of Elkins:
Almost its entire population is composed
of persons connected with the mines at
that place. There is little apparatus for
fighting fire there, and no matter how
good it might have been the house burned
so rapidly that it would hardly have been
possible to have saved any of those who
were cremated.
