Puts out Fire with 10 Bottles of Beer.

SHosHoNI, WYo., Feb. 9.-The in
habitants Of the town are rejoicing over the
settlement 8 escape from destruction and the
manner in which the misfortune was avoid
ed.
During high wind Frank Gensley, a
clerk, discovered that the floor of the
Dusterhof Brothers store was burning.
The flames were rapidly gaining Roadway,
and no water was available. In the store
was barrel of bottled beer, and this, with
great presence of mind, Gensley utilized for
fire fighting purposes. He threw bottle
after bottle of beer into the flames until the
fire was extinguished. Had the fire pro-
crossed and the store been burned, it is
more than likely that the flames would
been communicated to adjoining buildings,
and the entire town might have been de-
stroyed.
Thirteen bottles of beer were required to
put out the fire.

Collapse of Gov. Little.

Little Rock, Ark. Jan. 21.- Gov. John $. Little suffered a complete collapse from nervous prostration this morning at $50 o'clock. and for time his eondi- ton was extremely serious.
 The governor aud his son, Paul Little, his private secretary, were on their way to the executive office, and when midw of the stairway leading to the office the governor became suddenly seized with an attack of dizziness, com menced to reel and was about to fall but was prevented from do- ing so by his son and Maj. |. B. Jett, who was ascending the stairway at the time and few feet in the rear of tile governor and hlS son.
 The two men assisted Gov. Little to his office, placed him upon lounge and at once sent for pr. l.. K. Dibrill The governor was in very weakened condi- tion. Other physicians were summoned, and all agreed that the governor was in very bad shape. About 10 o'clock he was taken to his home. accompanied 1 by Dr. Dibrell.
 It IS the opinion of the physi- clans that Gov. Little will not be able to attend to official duties for some time, and that 1t IS possible that he will have to leave the state and go to some resort where lie may secure a season of quiet and rest, which they consider absolutely necessary 1 Tor the restoration ot hiS health. Gov. Little is not a physically strong man, and at the same tune Is very hard worker. He is ex- tremely consclentious in the per formance of his official duties. looking so continuously after de- tails as to overburden himself with work, in consequence of which he suffered the attack of nervous prostration this morning, which his friends predicted would come sooner or later.
 In case Gov. Little leaves the state, Hon. John Ike Moore of Phillips county will have to take charge of the governors office during his absence, and a tenn porary president of the senate will have to be elected.

Former Springdale People
 Injured.

Tuesdays Fayetteville News reports accidents to two former Springdale people as follows:
 About one o'clock today as Banker John K. Harris was rid ing astride of his horse, aud go- ing a pretty good gait, the horse Tn making d turn at the corner of East Center street to go north on College avenue, slipped and fellou the concrete crossing, com- ing down on all fours. giving NIT. Harris a terrible jar and quite badly wrenching his back. When the horse fell MT. Harris managed to keep in the saddle, and finding he was unable to walk parties came to his aid and carried him into the court house, when physician was immediate ly called. While he perhaps is not seriously hurt the wrench he sustained in his back will no doubt lay him up for some time.
 The accident which befell Mir. Harris recalls to Springdale peo- pie the time several years ago when he fell on a slippery side walk, breaking his leg which laid him I'D for several weeks.
