and NOW THE
HOOD IS ON.

Caney Kans., March 3O.-The
greatest gas we'll fire in the world
was squelched by human effort at
$50 last evening.
The hood was again placed and
firmly anchored and all fire was
put out except the torrent that
extended 200 feet from the top
opening of the hood. A great
amount of wet earth had been
built about the hood until only the
top could be seen. A force of
men then seized the cable wrapped
around a pulley on the stem of the
valve on this top opening. A
rapid run was made. The valve
was closed and the fire was out.
1t was close call. As the valve
closed the gas belched from be-
meath the hood, throwing mounds
of earth in all directions. The
entire hood was again enveloped
IN gas in five seconds after the fire
was out.
There was a frantic exhibition
of JOY among the workmen and
managers when they realized that
the fire was out. 1t seemed almost
too good to be true. The fire last
ed thirty -four days. The gas con-
sumed at 20 cents per thousand
feet would have been worth $500,
600. Over $4,000 we're spent in
fighting the fire.

Lens, France, March 30
Fourteen miners who we're en-
tombed in the Couryers mine on
March 10th, were taken out alive
from the mine by an exploring
party today.
The men had lived for twenty
days, shut off from the light and
almost deprived of air. With one
exception, all were we'll when
rescued, although they could not
have lived much longer.
The searchers heard noises, and
then received answers to their
calls, and the entombed men we're
finally dug out by the .rescuers.
When these miners we're cut off
from escape by the explosion and
fire they took refuge in the mule
stable in the mines. They sub
sisted first upon their lunches and
those of their comrads who had
been killed, then ate the mules
and the wheat and oats that we're
kept for the animals in the mine.
A boy of fourteen years was
among the rescued party, and he
endured the hardships with the
courage of his grown companions.
There was a statement in the
Kansas City papers the other day
that the bulk of the money in the

BOLD HOLD-UP FATALLY
WOUNDS HIS VICTIM
Saloon Keeper Who Would Not
Open His Safe Is Shot
by Robber.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 4.-Follow-
ing close upon the bold daylight robbery
of the japanese hank at O'Farrell and
Webster streets of $500 yesterday noon,
resulting in the death of a clerk and
probably fatal injuries TO the cashier,
the police were startled tonight by an
other daring hold-up.
Shortly before S clock three men en-
tered the saloon of Karl Boell at Eighth
and Bryant streets and, at the point of
revolvers, robbed the proprietor of $40
in the cash register and a gold watch,
which they took from his vest pocket.
Threatening TO kill him if he dis
obeyed, Boell was then ordered to open
the safe Refusing to do so, one Of the
robbers struck him vicious blow on
the head with q dubbed revolver and
felled him to the floor. Partially
stunned and bleeding, the saloonkeeper
still doggedly refused to open the safe,
whereuLon the robbers began shooting
at the PROSTATE man. One bullet struck
Boell in the nose aud two took effect
IN the left arm.
Attracted by the shooting, three po-
licemen were on the scene in a few mir"
utes, but the robbers had disappeared.
Boell was taken to the Central Emer-
pency hospital, where it is said that his
wounds will not prove fatal. The police
have obtained good description or
the trio from Boel, and many officers
and detectives have been detailed TO
search for them. The scene OF the rob
berry is in lonely section OF the
burned district.

TO PRESERVE WATER SUPPLY
Creation of Wasatch Reserve VIII Aid
IN Preserving Range.
Speria1 10 The Tribune.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 4.-The
Wasatch forest reserve has been
created IN Utah by Presid ential pro-
clamation, signed August 16. This re-
serve, comprising S5,440 acres, lies di-
rectly south of and adjacent to the
Salt Lake forest reserve, and west OF
the Uintah forest reserve. The coun'
try il epcloses contains one OF the
most rugged mountain ranges IN Utah
or, in fact, in the whole West. The
Wasatch mountains rise abruptly from
the Salt Lake valley and the agrl-
cultural lands vanish at the same point
The mountains are not heavily tim.
bered. The canyons and the protected
slopes bear. or are capable of bearing
merchantable timber, while the foot,
hills and exposed slopes arc covered
with chapsrral and quak1ne aspen.
The chief purpose IN the creation OF
the reserve is the conservation of the
water supply. a great many streams
in the reserve arc utilized for lrrlga'
tion and for power purposes. There
is little numbering, the use of the tim
Der being confined TO use by rancheFs
and miners. Next to the protection OF
the water supply, the regulation Of the
range is most important The entire
district has been heavily overgra zed
and the sentiment Of the ranchers OF
the region is heartily in favor of the
reserve, because it will protect them
in their grazing rights against the en-.
croachments of outside sheepmen, and
will insure perpetuation of the
range.

Smoot and his gang believe that How.
ell can defeat Powers, despite the howl
that has been raised against the domi-
nation of the Apostle in the politics
of the State. Whitecotton was favored
by Smoot for two reason: First, White
cotton testified strongly for Smoot in
Washington, and, second, it is not be

it was the desire OF Smoot to have
some man named on the Democratic
ticket that was personally satisfactory
to him. That is the answer,
