 The only officials who lost nothing were General Passenger Agent c. B. Ryan and Freight Claim Agent o. B. Bidwell. Jr.. whose offices were in an- other building.
 Many river tugs and the Government fire apparatus from the navy yard were called out, but the fire gained great headway as the result. 1t is said, of lack of water pressure. There were 325 men employed in the building. All were away over Sunday. The building 1t is said, will be replaced with a much larger one, although there Is some talk of the general offices being moved to Norfolk, as was planned some time ago. President Barr and other otfi- cials are arranging for temporary of- fees in Portsmouth.

InvestiEafing the Piper ExuIoslou.

Chief State Mine Inspector J. M Gray and his two assistants, James TIillhous and Nj. M. Kuffner, will by the end of this week have made out full report of the explosion in the Piper mines last Tuesday, in which ten men lost their lives. and will have forwarded the same to the Governor for perusal. It Is be- lieved that the accident at Virginia City last year and the accident last week in the Piper Mines will bring about stricter mining laws. and. when the next Legislature meets this will be one of the matters for serious con sideration.. There Is no criticism on the present inspectors, but 1t Is understood that 1t is believed that the laws on mining are too lax for the good of all concerned. ]

 PENSACOLA THURSDAY.
Vessels Now Engaged in Small Arms Practice Awnktfng Repairs to the
 Monitor Arkansas-~Death of Captain Minor,

Pensacola, Fla. March. 4.--Dehnite announcement has been made that the big batrleship Texas flagship of the Coast squadron, together with three monitors and three torpedo boats, will leave Pensacola next Thursday for Key West, where the ships will re-
 main for few days and then depart for Charleston. All of the vessels now here are engaging daily in small arms practice, which does not neces- sitate their leaving the harbor. They -areslying just of the navy yard, where they have been taking on coal and supplies.
 It Is pobable that the squadron would depart at an earlier date, but 1t is waiting for the monitor Arkansas. which cannot reach here before Tues day, and it will then be necessary for her to take on coal and supplies at the navy yard before the fleet can de- part. The announcement of the leave ing of the fleet Is a disappointment to Pensacolians who were under the impression that the vessels would re- main for, several weeks engaging in record target practice,

Deputy Shoots Two Negroes.

Shortly before midnight last night. on an outgoing East Lake electric car, a fight took place between Dputy Sher- if George Cousson and Charley Holmes, a negro. The officer was forced to shoot the negro to save his own life The bullet was fired while the negro was on top of the officer on the floor There was considerable consternation in the car. many people, both white and colored, with women in both com partmenta being enroute to their re- spective homes in +he suburbs between Birmingham and East Lake. It seems that the deputy was on the front end of the car with the motorman when the negro began using bad language and crrsing negroes near him.
 The officer requested him to desist, whereupon the negro took offense and asked the officer what right he had to interfere. The two got together and in the tussle the officer went to the floor with the negro on top. The ne- gro began striking the officer when the latter pulled fls pietol and fired on the negro. The bullet went through his body. inflicting a fatal injury. This morning 1t was disnovered that another, a friend of Holmes, had been shot and dangerously wounded by the same bull let His name is Frank Strong. He was carried to hoSpital and will proh- ably die.

How is the pumpkin crop?
They tell us that the steers are ro-rrd,
The hogs a solid lump.
The mutton healthy firm and sound
The turkeys sleek and plump.

But, really. why don't we enthuse
About the pumpkin crop?
Of course we need the things that make

Nor such coed things despise.

The following article, clipped
from the Mountain Home Herald
Democratic paper, very clearly
expresses the feeling OF the MAORI
ty OF Democratic papers in Idaho
in regard to the attack made on
Governor Gooding by the Capitol

holders OF the Democratic party.
We have read with disgust many
attacks on Governor Gooding pub

obviously not inspired by the lofti-

The Herald man does not like

office, DESERVING Henry Heitfeld, a
democrat above reproach, to do it.
We were against Frank Gooding
then, are now, and expect to be in
the approaching campaign, but it
will be because OF his political
principles.
The people, by a vast majority,
chose Frank Gooding as chief exc
cutive OF Idaho. 1t then became
tie duty OF all decent citizens to
extend to him the respect and sup
port that his official station entitl-

News betrayed its democratic pat.
rons by taking Republican money
rom Chairman Brady-but that
loes not justify it in whipping
Brady because he wants his mon
