HERO SAVED THE TOWN.
J. D. Adams at Hatton, WASH, Does a
Daring Piece Of WorIc-erabbed
Giant Powder From Fire.

Hatton, Wash, July 22.-At the risk
of his own life, J. D. Adams rushed
among kegs and boxes of black and
giant powder to extinguish burning
hay which had ignited from sparks
from passing locomotive
During the morning hours a crew Of
teamsters from the railroad camps of
the st. Paul road started in to unload
car of powder which had been
spotted" on the siding next to the
depot, and just down the hill from
the town.
The car stood on what is known as
the rear house track, placing the de-
pot between it and the main line,
where 1t is also necessary for teams
to come to unload, bringing them
within a few feet Of passing trains
from either direction. Both teamster
and helper had been carrying the
giant powder from the car onto the
wagon, and had almost the entire
body of the wagon filed when train
was heard approaching, making it nee
essary that the driver get upon the
seat to give attention to his team,
which was becoming frightened at
the approaching cars.
1t was while in this position and
during the time the helper was in the
car shifting boxes for hauling that
sparks from the passing locomotive
fell among the hay, which was in the
bottom Of the wagon to lessen the
jar of the load in hauling, igniting it
among the boxes of dynamite which
were piled high in front, causing a
large blaze, which was discovered by
Mr.. Adams when he came out of the
car carrying key Of powder to COM
plete the load.
Having had experience in handling
freight Of this class, Mr.. Adams at
once recognized the danger in which
himself and the whole town were
placed should the explosion occur.
Without saying word to the driv-
er, Adams threw the can he was car
rying to the ground, and with bare
hands dived into the fire, throwing
boxes in every direction and scatter
ing fire as best he could, but which by
this time had broken out all over the
wagon, with boxes and cans in its
midst.
The teamster, by this time being
able to hear the commotion in the
rear, realized, too, the Importance of
quick work and rendered what assist
ance was possible aside from caring
for his team, which had by this time
become almost uncomfortable, and
which later broke into run, scatter
ing boxes and cans right and left.
There is no doubt that had it not
been for the prompt action of Mr..
Adams the entire car of explosives
would have gone OF, completely de-
molishing the entire town. Mr.. Adams
is receiving congratulations from all
sides for his heroic and timely efforts,
but seems to take it as a matter Of
course, that what he did saving 9TH
ers was because he found it neces-
sary to do so for his own protection.

1t appears that last year the Iowa SUI
pretne court decided this ancient rule
was applicable in Iowa under the COM
mon law, but that it ought not to be
the law in Iowa. The lawyers fixed up
this bill and when Senator Durham
explained it he virtually showed that
the best lawyers really do not know
what "the rule in Shelley's case" is
and what it does. While they have
great reverence for the antique even
in laws and court rules they had de-
cided this law should be repealed in

the rule had come down from ancient
days in Merrie England and nobody
knows who originated it.

Several Measures of Some I'm

SHORT HOUR BILL AMONG THEM

Substitute for the Demurrase Bill =
Other Railroad Legislation in Doubt
-"RuIe in sheIIey's Case" Killed -
Municipalities Bill Passed.
Special I'd Times-Republican.


Des Moines, March 26.-Just as a
number of persons were reaching the
conclusion that the senate is indisposed
to do anything on bills that relate to
common carriers the senate took a
move and on Monday passed on big
bunch OF these bills. The most i'm
portant, perhaps, Is the one which linn
it's the hours of continuous labor OF
railroad employees SO that they may not
be kept at work for long hours without
a chance to rest. The bill is in line
with the recommendations Of Governor
Cummins and is very much desired by
the tratnmen as well as by the travel
ing public. The next most important
bill is one which puts express COM
panies under the control and direction
of the railroad commission so that
in the matter of rates and joint rates
and other regulations the express COM
panies will be ON par with other
common carriers. The governor also
recommended this and the state rail-
road commission, altho quite ready to
assume jurisdiction, is DESTROYS the bill
should pass. The bill by Whiting to
require track scales at junction points,
etc, passed, bill much desired by
shippers. The bill by Whiting to put
upon railroad companies the burden of
proof in the matter of furnishing cars
when desired may be in part substi-
tute for the demurrage bills. If it be-
comes law it will undoubtedly make
the railroad companies liable for dam
age in case they fail to furnish cars
and are unable to make a good showing
of excuse. Bills to require reporting
of serious accidents and to compel cut
ting OF weeds and to fix it so that wires
may not be strung over tracks to the
danger of trainmen, all passed without
comment. Today the senate committee
on railroads will undertake to secure
action on the demurrage bill, the train
speed bill, the anti-pass bill and some
others, tho this may not be done for
a few days.
The senate the other day repealed a
law 500 years old. Some of them
thought this was going back too far,
but as nobody could explain it, the bill
was passed. 1t was a bill to repeal
what the lawyers know as 1.-THE rule
