THEORIES ABOUT CATARRH.
Peculiar Ideas Regarding a Common

Mark Twain cure for a cold in the
head was simple. but he claims very ef-

to eat nothing whatever for twenty
four hours or presumably until the
trouble had disappeared=
Although not able to speak from per
sOnal experience as to the effectiveness
of this treatment 1T certainly has the
merit of extreme economy, but 1t oc-

but that errors in diet particularly
over eating is a very common cause.

helped to elevate to places Of power,
for a leadership that is above petty
personalities for kindness in party
for decency in politics, for everything
that gives permanency to parties and
makes membership in them thing of
honor instead of a mere passport to
preferment-these things are OF vital
importance. If it shall ever become

cruel crushing of the minority, we trena-

The library has on hand over one
thousand books, the most of them of
standard authorship. By adding to
this selection the Bodley Club library
of 100 volumes will, the privilege OF

Fire at Querida.

Yesterday morning at about S
O'Clock considerable excitement and
no little alarm was caused by fire
in the Eddy hotel at Querida. 1t
seems that one of the miners board
ing at that place stuck a candle stick
containing lighted candle into a
wooden partition in the wash room,
and left it burning earlier in the
morning. The candle in some way
communicated with some infiammable
material and was only discovered
when the smoke throuhgout the house
warned the inmates of their danger.
The exodus that followed, especially
of those who came off shift at II
o'clock and who were awakened to
find their rooms full of smoke, Was
general and gathering their wearing
apparel and most portable and
valuable possessions. they made sheir
escape by the most convenient exit.

snapshot of the scene at this interest

for the truth of the story.

MILLINERY STORE BURNED.
Explosion of Oil Stove Thought to
Have Started Flames.

The fire whistle last evening few
minutes after 6 o'clock startled peo,
pie and caused many to leave then
supper tables and ascertain where the
fire came from. which resulted in il
being located in the millinery store
of Mrs. Mary Lloyd in the north room
of the State Bank block. The fire
department. responded promptly and
soon had the fire extinguished, not
however. until everything in the store
was completely destroyed
Mrs. Lloyd left the store at 6 clock
locking the door, and leaving every
thing apparently in good order. In.
side Of 10 minutes after she left the
building an explosion occurred, blow
ing the thick glass front into thou
sand fragments.
Passersby who saw the flash and
heard the crash state that there were
two distinct explosions. At any rate
the entire stock was In flames at the
moment the explosion occurred. The
telephone exchange which is upstairs
just over the room where the explo-
sion occurred was in charge of Miss
Richards and Miss Wallace. They
felt the shock and heard a loud report
of the explosion. They ran to the
window ana saw the flames But they
remained at their post of duty until
advised by spectators to vacate. For
ing would be consumed.
Several theories are advanced for
the cause of the explosion. gaso.
line stove and an empty gasoline five
gallon can were found in the wreck.
The tank on the stove had been blown
or melted off. as also was the tops of
the oil can. Mrs. Lloyd says that
the stove had not been lighted since
l O'Clock in the afternoon.
The loss to Mrs. Lloyd means sew
eral hundred dollars, while the bank
building is damaged about $500. Mrs.
Lloyd's stock was insured for $500,
but that will not cover the loss.
