WANT A RECEIVER
One of Three PatneTs Asks Superior Cout to Take Charge Of Dusincss.

The application of John or Jean Thibault of Belleview street for the appointment of a receiver for a iit- tie industry he was partner in was heard by Judge Reed in the superior court to-day. Attorney J. J. o'Neill appeared for the applicant and At torney Hayes for Adrian Roux and Joseph Delage, the other alleged partners. Originally Albert Bissett was in the business. but early in its history he withdrew.
 From the story told by Thibault there was the utmost confidence be- tween the quartet. They drew up no papers of partnership. had no agree ment on paper whatsoever, but trust ed to each other to share in the ex- pense and profits. Thibault claims a receiver ought to be appointed be- cause the concern Is not paying and that he never was paid out of it what he paid into it. The defense is that he was paid all he ever invested in it.
 In January. 1904. the four men started In to work In a room fin the applicants house on Belleview street. The house. by the way, is in Mrs Thibault's name. They were to make diamond dies. diamond drills or piercers. and dies of various kinds. They began at the very bottom of the industrial ladder. their power being supplied by a large wheel and a pedal But in time they made enough to rent a motor. and in q little time more they were able 10 buy the motor. ft cost about $50. Things were looking bright for the four pioneers. They did business for the Waterbury Wire Die Co and other prosperous concerns in town and out . of town. They increased their work ing capacity until the total coat vas about $500. Tnibault worked right along. with a bright vision of pros- pertty always ahead of him. and Roux and DeIzge kept the books. bat Bik<ett backed out He had invested about sfeo and when he withdrew he demanded this nonev and De- laze's father promised to pay him in monthly InsfelmeEts-

PROTECT YOUR HORSES.
4 Dozen Pesky Flies Arc worss Than
 a Ten-Mil Drive.

A thing which the humane au- thorities should look after during the warm weather Is the practice of drivers allowing their horses to stand in the boiling sun without any protection from the heat or files, not to mention the many other an. noyances which a horse Is subject to while standing for two or three hours on such a day as this.
 This morning the writer saw a horse that had been standing for a couple of hours under the rays of the sun and to make matters worse tue animal was tied to fence. At it's feet was large amount of iron over which the animal stumbled several times The flies must have chewed couple of pounds of flesh off the poor beast before the owner came round to feed It. It is bad enough to drive horses which are unfit for use, but 1t is more of shame to allow a good healthy one to be treated in d manner described above. Waterbury seems behind the time when 1t comes to giving good care to the horse and there is plenty of work in this city for the humane agent.

San Francisco, April 10. Day dawn
ed on a scene Of death and destruction,
During the night the flames had CON
surned many Of the citys finest struc-
lures and skipped in dozen directions
TO the residence portions.
They had made their way over into
the North beach section and springina.
anew to the south reached out along
the shipping section down the bay shore
over the hills and across toward Third
and Townsend streets.
Warehouses and manufacturers con-
Germs fell in the path.
This completed the destruction Of the
entire district known as south Of Mar
ket street How far they are reaching
to the south across the channel cannot

After darkness thousands Of homeless
were making their way with their blan-

Gate park and to the beach to find shell
ter Those in homes on the hills Just
north Of the Hays valley wrecked sec,
&tion piled their belongings in the streets
and express wagons and automobiles
were hauling things away to the sparse
ly settled regions.
Down town everything IS in ruins.
Not a business house stands
Theatres are crembled into heaps.
Factories and commission houses lie
smouldering on their former sites.
All Of the newspaper plants have been
rendered useless.
1t is estimated that the loss in San
francisco will reach from $I5o, 100000
to $2oo,ooo,ooo.
These figures are rough and nothing
can be told until partial accounting
is taken.
On every side there was death and
suffering.
Hundrsds are injured. either burned,
crushed or struck by falling pieces from
buildings.
The number of dead is not known, but
il is estimated that at least 500 met their
death in the horror.
