been particularly annoying. Some

G.. F. Franz, at one time barber

Walla, dropped into town yesterdty.
After proceeding to get load of bad
whiskey aboard he called on his wife
whom he deserted about year ago
and created enough disturbance TO
cause his arrest and confinement iE
the county jail over night. He was
very sorry this morning and promis-
ed to be good. Mrs. Frantz was
about to make complaint to have
him put under bond to keep the

allowed to go this time he would
leave town and not put in an APP

DISASTROUS FOREST
FIRES ARE RAGING
Forest Fire Risk is Greatest in the History
of State-Fears REPETITION of
Fifteen Years Ago

From the present outlook there is
great danger of a conflagration over
the state such as has not been
equalled since 1892 when the great
forest fires swept practically every
thing before them from the Column
bia river to the Lewis river. This is
the statement made by Forest Super
visor d. b. Shelter this morning.
Mr. Shelter yesterday sent two men
into the mountains to look after the
fires there. He will go out himself
to personally superintend the work
as soon as he can get some one to
attend to the Office.
Fires at Index, fires in Skagit and
Whatcom counties, fires in the Olym-
pic mountains-all these Hre now
consuming millions of feet of valu-
able timber.
This is the earliest / have ever
known fires to get started so badly"
said Mr.. Shelter. Speaking of the
big fires of 1892 he said, AT ttat
time the smoke was so thick that for
three days it was necessary to keep
the electric lights running in the city
of Tacoma Only at certain times of
the day could a spot be distinguished
as the SUM- Forty-fve persons lost
their lives. These were surrounded
by the flames and there was no way
for them to escape. Fires got to

bottled every two hours through the test
for analysis of the board.
The Octopus blew out foul air only
twice during the twenty-fOur hours she
was at the bottom of the bay. 1t was
computed that only one fifty-fifth of her
air supply was exhausted and if these
figures are correct they tend to show
that the boat could remain submerged
thirty-five days provided the food and

The Lake also stood the test well. al

But unless two essential conditions are
met there can hardly be a race. These
conditions gre the employment of state
militia to police the course and the find
ing of a suitable course over the public
roads in Nassau or Suffolk county This
was determined at the meeting of the

Governor Hughes and other state Off

men as automobile policemen. jefferson
Demont Thompson, chairman of the

to sSk the government to select the
militia for the race, but simply to gain
his permission to hire National Guards
men to police the course in uniform The
militiamen's authority, Mr. Thomson
said, would not be greater than that of
deputy marshals, but their being in uni
form would exert a strong moral effect
on the crowd. Provided this plan sue

condition is regarded by competent grain
merchants here as being most unfavor-

provinces of Bessarabia, Poitava, Kher-

cultivated, are gravely affected. Seventy
five per cent of the winter crops have

temperature a fortnight ago from four
degrees below freezing TO intense sum-

lost unless rain falls within week.
