The fire started in quantity of cot

12-pounders are kept
The crew were called to the fire sta

were directed to preventing the fire
from reaching the magazine. At one
time the steel partitions were red-hot,
and the crew were ordered to stand by
to flood the magazine
The fire was subdued, however, after
about half an hours hard work. The
extent Of the damage Is not yet known.
Details have Just leaked out concern

The doctor gravely stepped out and

The friend stepped back into the

The doctor merely laughed and the
incident closed. But next week there
came a very large check from Mr.. Ar

the deal was squared.
Dozens of stories such as these are
told of the doctor In Kansas City. They
are all true-and he tells many of them

H0N0RS THE GUNNERS
Lord Charles Beresford overturns
Rule Of Precedence In the
Navv
Special Cable TO The Herald.

Special Cable TO The Herald.
LONDON, Nov. 23.-Lord Charles
Beresford, commander of the Britlsn
Mediterranean squadron, fully realizes
that good Workmanship is one or the
most essential requisites to naval VIC
tory. He has always exhibited the
liveliest interest in all questions re-
lating to gunnery, and he has just
created a precedent for the encourage
ment of gunners. On the centenary OF
the battle of Trafalgar he held a land
review of 5000 seamen and marines at
Malta. The procession, by his orders,
was led by a company of selected gun
LAYERS. both seamen and marines;
next came a company of engtne-room
artificers; then a company of artisans,
and then company of signalmen. Fol
lowing these four companies marched
the four battalions of seamen, stokers,
and marines.
This is the first time in the history
of the British navy that the gunlayers
have been recognized as the most i'm
portant body of men in the fleet; and it
is expected that the example set in the
Mediterranean will be followed else
where. In giving them the post of
honor, irrespective of their rank of
grade, Lord Beresford furnished an
object lesson which Is not likely to be
misunderstood. Since he has been in
command the ship flying his flag has
always been at the top of the shooting
list, and this year his flagship made
a record with twelve-inch guns which
has never been approached by any 9TH
er British man of war.

NEW MINISTER, WITH MODERN
IDEAS, WILL BE WELCOMED
DR.. S. A. N0RTHR0P A FRIEND
OF HoB0S
Known In Kansas City ss the Pastor
Who Sought Out the Down.
trodden and Helped Them
to a Better Life

The coming to Los Angeles Of the
Rev. DR.. s. A. Northrop of Kansas
City, as now seems assured, will bring
here not only a most delightful
preacher, after dinner talker, recoun-
teur and all-around good fellow-a
rarity In a minister, in fine-but man
who is unique in his ministry and his
Interpretation of his calling; man
who literally obeys the Masters injunc-
tion to "go out into the highways and
byways." In his nine years In Kansas
City the reverend doctor has been
known as the especial friend Of the
publicans and sinners-the preacher for
the great mass of the people who sell
dom enter a church and whose use
for a minister is often confined to the
times of marriage and burial.
In Kansas City DR.. Northrop took
hold of a moribund downtown church,
which was eking out q precarious ex-
istence, and put 1t into the very first
rank. He popularized It's services; he
made especial appeal to the transient,
the travelling man and the drifter; the
man without church home was the
man he was after and he did not re-
flain from the methods which reach
such people, however spectacular and
even trivial they may have seemed.
Aided by Wife
His church Is on one of the most
prominent downtown corners, and his
parsonage is next door. With a wife
thoroughly In accord with his ideas,
who possesses the Christian virtues In
abundance, as well as a fine voice and
decided musical ability, and daugh-
ter the echo of her mother, the doctor
has been available at any hour of day
or night for spiritual consolation or
need.
Often he has been called out Of bed
in the early hours to attend the bed
side of some dying tramp, and fire.
quently he has been aroused to wed
some belated eloping couple. But al
ways he is ready and so are his good
wife and daughter. if music is desired.
In their one family they can furnish
a complete wedding or funeral party,
even to the music and the bridesmaids.
Hence he has unbounded popularity
there as the peoples preacher" and
he is the best known and beloved pas
tor in the Kaw city.
But also DR.. Northrop has taken upon
himself the care of the submerged
tenth-the lowest down element of that
city. he is the noDoS fflend, ana
none is so poor that he fails to heed
the call. Almost always he says the
final words over the ashes of the de-
graded bum at the potter's field, and
many a drunken reprobate has
breathed his last to the inspiring Cos
pei read to him by the prayerful min
lister of the Master. 1t is to this class
that he has been an ever present friend,
and no one in Kansas City loves him
more than do hundreds of these dis
couraged and downtrodden, to whom

GENEVA, Nov 25.-A chamois hum
ter named Schultz Of Croire, In the
Canton of Griscom, was saved yester-
day from a terrible death by the brav-
cry of his son, a lad of 10 years.
At break of day the father and son
were stalking a chamois, and arrived
at a spot where they were Obliged to
cross a steep and slippery ice slope.
Schultz roped himself to his son. and
began to cross the slope on all fours,
as the noise made II steps were cut
in the ice would have frightened the
animal.
Suddenly the father slipped and dis
appeared over the side of a precipice
nearly 900 feet in depth.
The boy withstood the shock and,
with the aid of his ice axe, held on
like grim death, although the rope was
cutting his flesh. For nearly two hours
the brave lad supported his father,
who was dangling helpless over the
precipice.
In the end some shepherds heard
their cries for help, and rescued both
from their perilous position.

Trouble With Landlsdy
Parry, a young laborer from Comp

Full OF Good Humor
There is with DR.. Northrop that saw
ing grace of good humor and fun that
makes him popular everywhere. He
sees joke and makes one with the
best of them. One of the funniest is
that he tells on himself.
Down In the dregs of Kansas City
was for years a "bum's hangout," a
saloon run by man named Probasco.
This fellow had become rich selling
vile booze to hoboes and tramps, but
never an outcast went thirsty from his
place, no matter how poor he might be
nor how cold the night. Hence when
he died there was found cause among
the "bums" for funeral service, and
DR.. Northrop was, of course, chosen to
preach the sermon. He did-in the
saloon, and 1t was packed! And when
1t was done he boarded car for up
town and reached for his pocketbook.
1t wasn't there his pocket had been
picked In Probasco's by one of the men
to whom he had been preaching. The
good doctor never murmured. but the
story reached a newspaper man and
the minister has never heard the last
of It,
But probably the poor devil needed
the money more than L did," is his ex-
cuse for the deed.
The doctor is stout, rotunG and jovial.
His study is close to the biggest hotel
in Kansas City. and he frequently
drops across to this hostelry for a chat
and a look around. He usually wears
a short blue coat, and it is rubbed at
the elbows, too.

the Case

Convicted OF the murder of William
Saunders Parry, Miss Margaret II. Will
Hanson former proprietor of the Pied
mont lodging house on East First street,
appeared before Judge Smith In depart
ment / of the superior court yesterday
and was sentenced to twenty years i'm
prisonment in the state penitentlary at
San Quentin.
If the appeal to the supreme court
fails Miss Williamson Will be sent
north to serve her term, which, accord
ing to the state rules regarding the
good behavior of prisoners, will be
about fourteen years.
Miss Williamson was taken before
Judge Smith early yesterday morning
She was greatly agitated and patted the
arms of her chair while she listened 10
the motion of her attorney, Jud Rush,
requesting a new trial.
The claim advanced by Attorney
Rush was that certain evidence regard
ing an alleged assault on Miss Wit
hanson by Parry was not admitted
In this he was opposed by Attorney
McComas of the district attorneys of
flee, who stated that the final plea of
the defense had been accident, and that
If the shooting had been an honest ac-
cident, as Miss Williamson claimed, the
evidence to have been given by the
witness regarding an alleged fight be-
tween Miss Williamson and Parry
would have been immaterial and irrels-
want
Judge Smith sided with McComas
and overruled a motion for a new trial.
Receives Sentence
Stand up, Miss Williamson, and r.
ceive sentence" said Judge Smith, and
us the woman rose it was seen she was
in high temper. She talked to Attor
ney Rush, gesticulating wildly with her
hands, and it took several moments for
him to quiet her.
Then she stood up before the bar, her
small gray eyes swapping detiantly at
the couft and her head erect. Have
you any legal objection to sentence be.
ing pronounced at this time?" queried
the court.
'Yes, SIR came the quick response.
but before the woman could get started
on what promised to be a fiery ora

said mo, your honor, we have no OBJ
jection.''
ut is the order of this court that you
be taken to San quentin prison, there
to serve a term of twenty years i'm

The only trace of emotion on the face
of the little woman was visible har-
