The Heroic Death
of Benjamin krieger

boy Benjamin Krieger, the whole crew might
have been lost. I call him the hero of the
cident"-Report of Captain McCrea of the
Georgia." ... ....
An heroic death, indeed, was that Of
the Jewish boy, Benjamin Krieger, at
the explosion on board the battleship
Georgia" July 18th last.
The boys duty was to fill the breech
Of the first gun with powder. While
making preparations to inject charge
he noticed a flare few feet from him,
and, closing the breech of the gun,
shouted to the rest of the crew to fall
back, but in his endeavor to save the
others he was himself too late to escape
death, and he was killed with nine Of
his fellow-seamen. IS
Although he could have easily saved
himself, that noble boy thought more Of
the safety of his comrades than of his
own life. In the history Of brave deeds
by members Of our Jewish race his self
sacrificing act will shine forth as one Of
the very greatest.
The parents of Benjamin, Nathan
and Mrs. Krieger have been in our city
for some years They lost all in the late
fire and took their abode in the Rich
mond refugee camp, where they now
reside Their 15-year-old son, Benja-
min, who had aided his parents by work
ing wherever he had chance, joined the
navy in May of last year He was as
signed to the training ship Hancock, F."
and later to the battleship Georgia., -
where he remained until the day he
gave up his life to save his fellow com
rades.
His body, encased in metallic coffin,
arrived here, sent by the government
Tuesday last, and his funeral took place
Thursday following from an undertak-
ing parlor on Fillmore street. Although
not in the best of health we thought it
our duty tc attend, and found at the
time designated squad of U. S. sailors
drawn up in front of the place. They
were under command of an officer, flag

rapid growth of the mall order bust,

firms are daily reaching out for new
sections of trade. What will be the
result along this line? With the
growth of the catalogue house comes
the death of the rural mercantile
trade. Let them once destroy the
country merchant and the markets
OF the world will be in the hands OF a
few wealthy capitalists. Their branch
houses will appear In all the country
towns and the farmer will no longer
be independent. His friend, the coun-
try dealer. who through competition
was forced to pay the value Of the
butter. eggs, etc., will be thing of
the past. and In his place will appear
the fat. gloating face Of the capitalist,
in whose benumbed conscience there
is no thought of pity. whose breast
contains instead Of heart great
lump of cold stony gold, whose one
ambition is to build up greater for

Again, the dollar spent with the

"My baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face

her most, especially nights. They
would cause her to be broken in her

LAToN BILL KILLED.
Newspaper Protests Defeat Radical
Libel Law.

Denver-The Laton libel bill
against which the State Editorial AS
sociation and practically all the news
paper men In the state were arrayed
was killed In the Senate Thursday by
a vote on third reading of 25 to 6. 1t
had passed the House and been favor
ably recommended by the committee
of the whole in the Senate, SO that It
appeared almost certain OF becoming
law. But at the last there came a
storm of protests that proved to be
effective.
When the bill was reached on the
Senate calendar an effort was made to
adjourn In order that some step be
taken to amend 1t SO as not to be such
jeopardy to reputable publications,
but majority demanded its slaughter
then and there and out 1t went.
Senator Harris opened against 1t
first and said 1t was liberty-destroy-
ing bill.
Senator Sapp pointed out that the
libel law of this state was strong
enough already and stated that with
the bill a law newspapers would be
afraid to publish news until the news
was more than stale. 1t was a bill to
encourage blackmail.
Senator De Long said the intent of
the bill was all right but as worded It
would drive country newspapers to the
wall.
IF the bill drew the line between
liberty and license Of the press would
vote fer it," said the senator. II wish
we could do something to cut out the
yellow business In journalism; but this
bill would do far more harm than good
! would rather suffer from the abuse
OF the sensational newspaper than pro-
tect criminals, therefore I will vote
against It."
Senator Barela believed that some
relief was needed from the irresponsi-
BILE and sensational sheets and he ia
vored the bill.
The vote was a surprise to some, as
when the bill was up on second read.
Ing 1t had seventeen votes.
Senators Bardwell. Barela, Booth,

voted for the bill because they had

LAND ORDER AMENDED.
Order suspendins Issue Of Land Pat.
ents Practically Revoked.

Western memberes OF
the Senate have received from Presi-
dent Roosevelt copy of an order just
issued which virtually revokes Secre-
tary Hitchcock's order suspending Is
suance OF land patents until entries
can be examined on the ground by spe-
cial agents.
The President has so amended the
secretary's order that homestead and
timber land entries may now be pat
ented, when cntrymen have compiled
with the law and permitted proof
thereof, no field examination being
necessary.
In fact, under the modified order. ex-
animation by a special agent is only
required where fraud is indicated, or
when the homesteader Is endeavoring
to commute.
The modification is In line with the
recommendations which have recently
been made to the President by several
western senators.
The Presidents order states that no
examination In the field by a special
agent shall be required in the follow
ing classes of entries:
First-Final five-year homestead en-
tries heretofore made where the proof
Is satisfactory and complete.
Second-Final certificates and re-
ceipts in final iive-year proofs hereto
fore made when the proof is satisfac-
tory and complete.
Third-Homestea entries COM
muted On ceded Indian lands In which
annual payments are required.
Fourth-Entries where claimants
compliance with the law has been es-
tablished by contest or other regular
| adverse proceedings.
Fifth-Entries confirmed by virtue
of any act OF Congress.
Sixth-Selections and entries In
which no residence or Improvement Is
required by law. when the lands en-
braced are situated in non-mineral To-
calities, as shown by records OF the
Geological Survey. or when their char
acter has been fixed by investigation
and classification In accordance with
law.
Seventh-Reissuanc OF patents be
