Mrs. Ethel Trip came near meeting
with q serious accident one morning last
veek. when she snatched from the stove
small can containing kerosene which
had been used in starting the fire and
had been sitting on the stove. When
she lifted the can the bottom, which
had unsoldered, dropped out and the
oil instantly took FIRE, the flames envel-
opipp her. Her husband who was 10

succeeded in fearing off the burning
clothes and smothering out the flames,

RATES TO BE CONTINUED.

Western and Southwestern lines at
a conference held at Chicago decided
to continue the usual home-seekers'
rates after Nov. l., the date when the
present rates will expire. There was
a strong disposition on the part of
some of the roads to discontinue these
rates and compel home seekers to pay
the regular 2-cent rate, but the South
western roads, anxious to settle up
their territory, said this was more i'm
portant than all the passenger traffic
put together, and they prevailed in the
conference. 1t is likely, however. that
greater restrictions will be thrown
about the rates and they will not be
made in seasons when home seekers
are not likely to travel All the roads
agreed that it was highly important to
populate as speedily as possible the
entire territory west of the Mississ-
ippi river.

ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

The Commercial club is on the right
track when it prepares statistical re-
ports about Richmond and Richmond s
industries for circulation about the
proper attention to ones claims IS to
back them up with facts. Richmond
In this case is going to back it's claims
to being one of the best cities in the
country by the facts in the case. Sec
is preparing among other things a
report showing the total amount ex-
pended yearly in wages by Rich
mond's industries. To the trained
manufacturer considering a change OF
location for his plant the sum annual
ly expended in Richmond for wages
will cause him to give us more con-
sideration because it will show him
that we are already one of the leading
manufacturing cities CT the state. The
industries already will cause him to
have more confidence in our claims
and to give more attention to our rea-
sons for the location of his plant in
Richmond. In preparing such statis-
tical reports Richmond is but follow
ing in the footsteps of other and equ-
ally successful cities. This Is the age
of the "show me" man and when a
manufacturer wants Richmonds
claims substantiated in the future he
will have it done to his complete sat
isfaction. This progressiveness on
the part of the Commercial club au-
gurs we'll for Richmonds future
growth.
