Fate Of Soldiers Who, Left Their Tent
As Unguarded. e'~
F. H. Bennett and Frank Fall two
young men who were discharged from
the regular army we're stripped OF
nearly all of their belongings in this
city Sunday night. Their tent, Yin
which they had placed their belong
ings, was robbed while they we're
up town to take a look at the city
by artificial light.
Bennett and Fall came here from
San Francisco and were on their way
to Goldfield. They had a fine out
fit, stocked with numerous toilet ar
ticles, several suits Of clothing. an
abundance of bedding. and a large
quantity of other personal effects
which they foolishly left in their tent
unguarded while they came up into
the city.
Their tent was pitched near the cat
in the vicinity, and they had beer
away but a short time until it was
radied, everything except the tent it.
self being taken.
The loss is over three hundred dol
lars, and when the soldier boys leave
for Goldfield they will be shy on many
articles that would have added to
their comfort
Among the things taken were a dia
mond stick pin, a gold watch chain
a X. P lodge emblem, cuff and collar
buttons and other valuable pieces OF

instead of being tried for the crime.
Both Voor and Barber were en-

latter is of weak mind. He also has
a high temper and Voor had made It

Governmental life insurance IL by no
means the only New Zealand institu.
ton from which America might take
pattern probably. One Of the fairest
and most logical remedial measures
ever tried in the colony and ore which
has proved its usefulness from the
very moment Of its adoption Is tho
workman's compensation for acct.
dent" act. The principle upon which
the measure was instituted was based
on the assumption that It Is neither by
the wish nor by the conduct Of either
employer or employe that accidents
happen, but that In spite Of that fact
steady percentage Of accidents occurs.
They arc thus incidental to production.
and the business which yields the prof.
It should bear this part Of tho expense
Of producing. Therefore a sum must
DO paid to every injured worker and,
II the accident proves fatal, to his
family. The only exception to this
rule IL when It can be established to
the satisfaction Of the court Of arbi.
tration. which adjudicates these cases.
that the employee was injured willfully.
BY the act there Is maximum Of S..
coo payable. but the form Of the com.
pensation Is usually that Of half pay
for definite time and the payment OF
q lump sum II the injury IA permanent
OF course corresponding effort had
to be made to minimize the loss to the
employer. To meet tho necessity the
government life insurance department
was empowered to include accident In

the most expedient course to pursue
resign as leader of the administration
This opinion is given weight by the
tone of Ottawa dispatches which ap-
pear today in several French govern
ment newspapers.
1t seems evident that former Minis
ter of the Interior Sifton, who left the
cabinet because of the educational
clause in the autonomy bills, is deter
mined to force the premier to COM
plete surrender. Nothing but the en-
tire elimination of the Objectionable
clause will satisfy him and the other
western members.
1t is rumored that w. S. Fielding
minister of finance, has handed his
resignation to the premier, but the
latter hesitates to accept it. 1t is also
reported that w. r. Scott, secretary
of state, who assisted in drafting the
autonomy bills, will leave the cabinet
if Laurier does not remain firm in the
slant he has taken.

COLLEGE PLACE NEWS.
New Presbyterian Church Organiza-

COLLEGE PLACE, March 14.-Last
week the trustees of the Presbyterian
church purchased two fine lots on
which to erect their church, and are
now planning an active campaign for
funds. The location is in the centra.
part of town and is pleasing to the en-
1ir. church. The plans of the bui 'inS
have not been definitely settled upon,
but there will probably be one or two
Sunday school rooms in connection
with the main auditorium. They ex-
pect to spend about $4,000 on the build
ing. Some of the property owners
think that a neat little church in the
village will add more to the value of
property in the community than the
cost of the building. They hope to
begin building soon and to complete it
before July.

CANNOT EXPLAIN BURNS.
Mutters the Single Word "Gasolene'
When Questioned.

OWATONNA, Mimi, March 14.-E.
G. Porter, manager of the electric light
company, is in such a critical condi-
ton from burns received early this
morning, that he can make no explana-
tons of the accident, except to utter
the single word "gasolene"
He went to his kitchen early, and it
is supposed that a can of gasolene
came in contact with the fire in the
stove. Anyway, there was an explo-
sion and his entire body, except the
soles of his feet, was burned. His ears
are charred and the injuries to the
upper part of mis- bodies are particular
ly serious.
Mr.. Porter was clad only In
his nightshirt which was burned from
his body. He ran through the house
and finding a blanket smotnered the
flames, then walked eight blocks with
out assistance to the hospital.

FINE SPACE FOR WALLA WALLACOUNTY
j. B. Caon Royalty Treated By Lewis and Clark Fair Com
mission at Tacoma Meeting Saturday

by the way of Portland, spending most
of yesterday at the Lewis and Clark
fair grounds. 1.-The Washington build
ing, consider, will occupy one of the
most commanding positions on the
whole ground" Mr.. Catron said. "The
site is the one selected for the Massa-
chusetts building several montsh ago
and Is almost in front of the California
building. The grounds are $50 by 255
feet and the building will be 1874 by
1874 feet. The Washington Fair COM
mission is determined to erect a build
ing that will be a credit to the state.
It will be ali hard finished on the in
side, nicely decorated and painted.
There will be huge balcony running
clear around the building that will be
able to accommodate $500 people, and
will overlook the entire bay and gov
eminent building. The grounds are
large enough to permit of parking
clear around the building, besides
there will be streets On all four sides
which will admit of many entrances to
the building. The name Washington
will be emblazoned on four sides of
the building with letters two feet in
height
Mr.. Catron stated that work at the
fair grounds is being rushed despite
the strike that has been inaugurated
by some of the labor unions. The diff
ferences between the exposition man
agement and unions are being slowly
Strengthened out and there is little fear
that the fair will not be ready for Wis
itors by June 1. The first car of lum-
Der for the Washington building was
delivered on the site Saturday and the
work of erecting the structure will be
commenced Immediately.
