cities, and insurance companies would
go out of business for lack Of patron
age But many fires begin when no
one is near and are not discovered
until the Roadway is too great for one
man to fight. Consequently, it is GUS
tomary to equip buildings liable to
fires with automatic sprinklers, provid-
ing an arrangement which will empty
the contents of large tank of water
through a series Of pipes to drench
the vicinity of the blaze. The water
is turned on by the fusing of a soft
metal plug under the action Of the
heat from the blaze, or by means of
a thermostat, which works automatic
ally when the temperature rises to q
predetermined degree, regardless of
proximity to the blaze itself.

George Renskers of Westfeld, re-
turned last Friday from Ada, Mimi,
where he had been on business. Upon
his arrival here he learned of the sad
death of his twoyear old daughter,
who was drowned in a water tank, dur
ing his absence. It seems that the lit
tie one had strayed from the house,
where she had been playing, and her
absence was not noticed until about
fifteen minutes later when one of the
boys went in search of her. He found
her in the water tank and after pull
ing her out it was found that she was
still alive. Dr. Shockey was hastily
summoned, but before his arrival the
little one expired.
I. Honstain, son of Capt. Honstain,
was in town last Friday from Mime
apolis, closing deal with Herman
Backhaus for the erection of a 21, 900
bushel grain elevator to be located
here. The building will be completed
sometime in September.
The amount of grain that will be
harvested in Emmons county this year
will exceed that of any previous year
by an enormous amount. Our dealers
in farm implements are selling ma
chimes as fast as they can be put to-
gether, and nearly every farmer when
leaving town these days, take with
them some sort of farm machinery.
The board of county commissioners

Killed BY Lightning.

Bisbee Gazette: BENJAMIN Long,
son Of Daniel Long, was killed by
lightning during the thunder storm
week ago yesterday evening at the
home Of his father six miles south
east of Bisbee.
When the storm approached all the
members of the family that are at
home now, were in the house except
Dan Long who had gone to the barn
to do some chores. When the rain
began falling he noticed his son Ben
was preparing to come to the barn to
help him, Mr.. Long beckoned him to
go back as he was ready to go to the
house himself. The young man re-
entered the house While Mr.. Long de-
layed at the barn few moments long
er. Just as he turned to hurry to the
house there came a binding flash of
lightning, accompanied by a crashing
peal Of thunder. The conclusion was
terrific and it appeared to Mr.. Long
that their house was being lifted off
its foundation, he ran to- the house and
on entering was Mortified to find the
entire family scattered around on the
floor apparently dead, and the house
on fire. Just what Mr.. Long first did
in the extremity of the horrible mo-
ment he can not exactly recall. He
remembers dashing pail of water and
a pail of milk, which stood handy onto
to fire drowning it out. His wife was
the first to regain her senses and both
Of them did what they could to help
their stricken children.
Their three daughters, Cora, Ada
and Tracy soon revived but their son,

clusively for railroad purposes" etc.

GERONIMO AT WORLDS FAIR.
Old Apache Chief, Who Was Subdue,
by General Miles, Part Of India,

Old Apache Chief, Who Was Subdued
by General Miles, Part Of Indian
Display.
ST. Louis, July s. Geronimo, the
once bloodthirsty Apache chief, who
spread terror throughout the South
west until he was finally captured by
General Nelson A. Miles, is one of the
striking features of the Indian exhibit
at the Worlds Fair.
Geronimo regards himself as still
great chief because he resisted the
American government longer than any
other Indian. He is seventy years old
and, while revered by all Apaches, is
not considered as a ruling chieftain on
account of his extreme age.
When General Miles first made
Geronimo captive, the old Indian was
sent to Florida, but in a short while
he was returned to the prison at Fort
Sill. Geronimo is nominally free at
the Worlds Fair, but practically a
prisoner of war. He was accompanied
to the exposition by Captain Sayre of
the u S. A., under whose charge the
old Indian has been since his stay at
Fort Sill.
Geronimo spends the days in the
Indian building at the Worlds Fair,
and as a pastime writes his autograph
for visitors. He has special tepee
in the Apache village and makes his
home with his tribe at night.
OF all the tribes that roamed
Americas forests, the Apaches were
the most cruel and treacherous. And
of all the Apaches, Geronimo was the
most vicious. He fought desperately
when escape was possible by no other
means. But slaughter from ambush
and the Staying of the defenseless was
the more to his choosing. Long years
of captivity has broken his spirit but
he is still warllke, proud and erect,
the true representative of once
powerful race.
