II Wishes Were Horses

Everyone would ride, and every
one would own home. Everyone
wishes to own home, but wishing
will never secure it for you. After
you have been wishing for home
call and see us, and let us tell you
what the next step in securing a
home is. 1t is an easy step and far
better than paying rent. We have
some nice homes in different parts of
the city. Some of them will be sure
to suit.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 25.-Gover-
nor James N. Gillett in a statement
discussing the local situation says:
"San Francisco does not want to see
the state troops enter the city. 1t is
better for the labor unions, the citizens,
the city and the state that they should
not take charge of affairs, but I will
say, if this violence continues and in
creases, the militia will be brought In
and will take charge of affairs. Moth
ing along that line has been planned
as yet and the state will wait reason
able length of time for conditions to
be adjusted
Something must be done. There
must be a strong governing body to
take charge of affairs, and along this
line I have one suggestion to make.
Let the various civic bodies of San
Francisco get together and appoint a
committee of twenty-five or fifty from
their members, a committee of strong
minded men who will not allow politics
to enter into the question and who will
fight for San Francisco as plain citi-
zens interested in the welfare of the
city.
Such committee could accomplish
much. There are strong men here and
if they set about the matter in the
right way there will be no occasion for
the entrance of the state troops into
the CITY,"

MANY PERISH IN
FIRE At SAN JOSE
FOUR BODIES RECOVERED,
TEN MISSING
Now Believed That Proprietor Of Feed
Store Started Blaze Which De-
stroyed Market Street
Property
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SAN JOSE, May 25.-Two unidenti-
fed bodies were taken from the ruins
of the disastrous morning fire on Mar
ket street this afternoon, and with the
one identified as that of John McDon-
aid, an employe of the San Jose Water
company, and one recovered this fore
noon, brings the death list up to four.
That ten or dozen other bodies are
in the ruins the firemen and search
ing parties have little doubt, judging
from an examination of the burned
premises, which were veritable trap.
and the incoherent statements of the
keeper of the lodging house.
G. w. Laverty was arrested today
on suspicion of having set fire to the
feed store where the blaze started. 1t
Is alleged that Laverty was seen yes
terday by one of his former employees
in the act of cutting up lap robe,
portions of which were found by the
police and firemen and were well
soaked with coal oil. Pieces of the
lap robe were found also in Browns
barn.
1t was after o'clock this morning
when the fire broke out in the rear of
Browns commission store on North
Market street and in few minutes
spread to Laverty's livery stable and
to, the Union lodging house, directly
above it.
Twenty horses in Laverty's stable
were burned, but those in Browns barn
were saved.
A large bucket, in which was a
piece of candle surrounded by guam
tity of rags saturated with coal oil, was
found in the rear of Browns place,
near lot of loose hay, leading to other
bales, indicating that the fire was the
work Of an incendiary.
When the fire was first discovered
there were over forty people asleep in
the Union lodging house, and the
stamping of the terrified horses in the
stable below gave them timely alarm.
Rushing into halls, half clad, cropping
their way through the choking and
binding smoke. many Of the frightened
inmates, guided by the firemen, reached
the street in safety.
The loss will be about $4,000, par
TALLY covered by insurance.

PATROLMAN DIES
OF HEART DISEASE
FALLS DEAD TALKING TO A
FRIEND
Had Been Member of Force Since 1889
and Was FaVorlte with Supe-
rlor Officers and Fell
low Police

Patrolman Archie Mercer of the local
police force dropped dead from heart
disease in front of his new house, 1852
Dewey avenue, at 2:15 yesterday after
noon.
Mercer mad been telling John T.
Buchanan, one of his old friends, how
he wanted alterations made in his
house. They walked out to the side
walk and began joshing about fish
ing trip which they intended taking.
Mercer suddenly reeled and said, "Oh,
joint" and fell dead before his friend.
The body was taken to Pierce Bros
undertaking parlors.
Mercer was Sc years Of age and lived
with his family at 1888 Dewey avenue.
For some time he had been suffering
from pleural asthma, but seemed to
have recovered and expected to return
soon to his old beat on North Spring
and Main streets.
Mercer was one of the oldest men in
service. He was first appointed on
May Is, 1889, when he was given star
No. IL.
Was Popular Officer
In all the years he has been on the
force he made many friends and was
known as a man of the highest integ
rity. He was liked by all his fellow
officers and by his superiors for his
quiet, unassuming manner.
Mercer leaves a wife and two chill
dren, the eldest of which is boy 10
years old and the younger girl 6
years old. His family will receive $1,000
from the police relief fund. This is
supposed to be the only insurance Mer-
Ger carried.
A touching incident occurred when
Captain Auble went to the place to get
the body of his old friend. Mercer's
little daughter, a tot of years, went
into the garden and picked a bunch of
simple flowers. She went up to the
officer and gave them to him, saying:
. please put these on papa, won't
you.'

FINANCIAL
No Sign Of UneaSineSS Mani
tested in Las Vegas

Las Vegas remained serene and I'M
rfllucd through the financial fury that
swept over the mining camps and most
of the commercial centers throughout
the state.
The First State Bank saw no occasion
to take advantage Of thc holidays pro-
claimed by the Governor and was open
for business at all times during usual
business hours. No demands were
made by depositors In fact, there was
nothing to indicate that there was any
thing wrong in the financial world, eX-
cepting the newspaper reports from
other sections. Travellers expressed
surprise upon seeing the bank open.
The First state Bank has the rcputa-
ton Of being one Of the safest III the
southwest and that reputation was sub
stantiated by its action in remaining
omen through the storm that threatened
so many institutions on all sides.
The majority of banks throughout
the state opened for business Monday,
though the Governor extended the hol-
idav proclamation beginning with Thurs
dav of last week To cover all OF the
present week. There were no runs and
deposits were in excess of Withdrawals.
The state Bank and Trust Company :
banks are still closed, but its officers
maintain the institutions are solvent
and will be able to make full settle
Iment if given time.
Business interests are rallying loyalty
to the support of the bankers and 1t IS
believed the crisis in Nevada is over.
