THE RANGE EXPLODED.
Close Call for the Family of A. Cross
at Pierce.

at Pierce.
The range in the kitchen of A.
Cross blew up last Wednesday morn
ing and nearly wrecked the interior Of
the room, besides injuring Mrs. Cross.
Celia and the baby. The former was
quite badly cut, while Celia was struck
over the right eye by piece of the
stove and her forehead and face
bruised and cut badly. She was pre-
pairing breakfast over the stove at the
time of the explosion. The baby was
also near the stove and its little hands
and arms were badly burned. DR.. l..
r. Pheasant was called at once to at
tend the injuries. 1t is thought that
the explosion was caused by frozen
water pipes running to the tank in the
bath room above. The kitchen is not
furnished with a radiator from the
heating plant that warns the other
rooms of the house and consequently
the severe cold Of that night froze up
the pipes in the pantry and kitchen.
The range was complete wreck and
the ceiling and walls of the room badly
damaged from the flying iron and SCOT.
1t seems miraculous that the members
of the family were not seriously in
jured.-Pierce Call, Dec. 7.

and now the people of that place are
asking for union station. Every per-

in their power to help 1t along. The
old system of having separate depot
for each railroad is too inconvenient
for the present time. The Junction at

unnecessary delays to the travelling
public, but it could easily be aban-

NoRWECIANS IN AMERICA.
Are Numerous and Prosperous and
Rank High as Workmen
and Citizens.

At a meeting Of the Norwegian syn
cd in this country a few days ago a
prominent member Of the Pacific dis
trict declared that the Norwegian pop
; ulation of the Ulited States had three
times as much wealth as all inhabitants
of Norway This looks like an ex-
trayagant estimate, says the st. louis
/ Globe-Democrat The inhabitants Of
Of the United States of Norwegian
birth in 1900 numbered $4,000. At
the present time they probably num-
Der 100000 The Norwegians in Nor
way number nearly five times as many,
or about 100000.
Like most of the United States
adopted citizens, the Norwegians in
this country are prospering The per
capita wealth Of this country is several
times as great as that of Norway. IN
doubtedly the Norwegians here have
amassed their share Of the country's
holdings Of property. None Of the
country's foreign-born citizens are
more intelligent or industrious than
the natives Of the northland They
are sturdy, economical and ambitious.
To all the learned professions they
have furnished their quota In every
one OF the higher salaried employments
they have many representatives. It is
doubtful, however, If the estimate of
this American citizen Of Norwegian
birth is strictly correct The figures
Of comparative afluence in this coun-
try are placed too high.
Yet the improvement in conditions
among all the foreign ingredients OF
the American population is striking
enough to be impressive It is one
of the things which is swelling the
rolls Of the immigrants. In the neigh
borhood Of 100000 immigrants have
come to the United States in the pres
ent fiscal year. A still larger thrush
will be scored in the calendar year, for
the number Of arrivals in the first half
Of the year was not as great as it has
been, on the average, in recent months.
Far greater attractiveness is offered |
by the United States than by any 9TH
er country. The inpour Of 100000 /
a year from the rest OF the world tells
the story. There is no need for any
body to indulge in hyperbole in de- |
scribing the advantages which this /
country offers. as the Norwegian re-
ferred 10 probably did. The facts are
enough without any extrinsic /
establishment.

sEQUOYAH's WONDERFUL FEAT.
"The syllabary was finished in 1921.
1t was the only alphabet in the whole
world to be finished by one man, and
was so complete that any one under
standing the Cherokee language could
upon learning the eighty-six characters
OF the sylla barry read and write cor
rectly. AS witness to its perfection
may be adduced the fact that no
change either by addition or elimin-
alton has ever been found necessary.
He then established a school at his
home, having for scholars aged grand
parents, their children and grand
children, grave missionaries painted
warriors, white traders cunning med

They finished their education gen
