UeadvilIe Has Bad Fire.

Leadville-Six store buildings and
their contents were almost entirely de-
stroyed by fire October 1st, and several
people were injured.
The fire broke out from a gasoline
explosion over shooting gallery and
spread very rapidly, as all of the build
ings were frame structures, located be
tween Second and Third streets on
Harrison avenue, in the older portion
of the city.
From the shooting gallery the fire
spread to the clothing store of Joseph
Harwitz, and before it could be gotten
under control it attacked two other
small clothing stores, a barber shop
and a saloon The second stories of
these buildings are occupied by lodg-
ers.
May Brown, who occupied front
room. was awakened by the smoke and
finding the access to the stairway was
cut off attempted to make her escape
through the front window Her dress
caught in an awning and she fell heav-
lily to the concrete sidewalk below, sus-
tanning severe injuries.
George White jumped from the sec
and story and broke his leg. The TO-
tai fire loss is probably 100000 Very
little insurance was carried as the in
surance rates in this portion of the city
are almost prohibitive.

Looks Like a Bio Strike,

Denver.-In answer to the demands
of the general grievance committee of
the Order of Railway Telegraphers.
the Denver & Rio Grande railway,
through its general superintendent A.
f. Welby, fatty refused to reinstate
r. H. Skeggs, the telegraph operator
at Grand Junction who was discharged
a week ago for refusing to test West
'ern Union wires. An appeal was at
once taken to the assistant general
manager of the road, W. S. Martin, the
general manager being out of town,
and conference will be held with
that official soon
Should he indorse the decision of
the superintendent it is asserted that
a strike of all the telegraphers in the
Rio Grande service will be ordered.
A. H. Wasson of Creede, general
chairman of the committee. declared
that he was confident there would be
no strike.
Il think the Rio Grande appreciates
what it means" he said, land l don't
think they will let it come to a strike.
Assistant General Manager Martin ad-
mitted yesterday that there was moth
ing against Skeggs other than his re-
fusal to test the wires of the CONNER
cial company, and in taking this stand
the operator was complying with in
structions from the officials of the Or
der of Railway Telegraphers. Martin
gave no indication of what his an
swer would be to the grievance COM
mittee but he seemed optimistic in
the face of the impending trouble"

Found Source of Life-if?

Berkeley. Cal-Professor Jacques
Loeb, the famous biologist. makes the
statement that he believes that the
germ of life can be duplicated. pro
vided the chemical reactions surround
ing the process of fertilization are in
vestigated. The announcement of Pro-
fessor Loeb has been received with
great interest by the students of sci
entific research as a distinct step in
the direction of production of living
matter from the inanimate.
The university savant takes the
stand that all that differentiates living
matter from the machines of mani
mate matter which he has produced in
the Laboratories of the University of
California is the power of the animate
objects of developing and reproducing
themselves automatically. All that is
therefor necessary, he declares, is for
the scientist to discover the chemical
process which causes the development
of the egg into the embryo.

Explosion Of the Earth.

We frequently hear the theory ad-
vanced that the planets and suns ex-
plode and that our own earth might
possibly explode from pent-up forces
within. A high explosive exerts about
the limit Of pressure capable of being
exerted by gases set free and expand
ed by the heat generated by any
chemical reaction. Such a pressure,
great as 1t is is far too insignificant to
explode the earth. Were the whole
great molten interior of our globe to
be replaced by dynamite and detonat-
ed. the explosion would not lift the
earths crust. We have but to calcu.
late the weight Of column of gran
lite OF height equal to the thickness
OF the earth's crust to see that the
pressure Of the crust on the molten in
terror far exceeds the pressure exert
ed by exploding dynamite. We have
seen that the speed of the decorative
wave is about four miles per second
The speed of the earth in it's orbit is
four times as great, declares Hudson
Maxim, in the Independent. If, there
fore. the interplanetary space Of our
solar system were to be filled with an
explosive mixture capable of being de-
tonated and consumed with the speed
of dynamite. and if this were to be set
off just behind the earth in its orbit
the earth would not feel it, but would
rapidly rush away from the wave Of
explosion, pass clear around the sun,
and come back again to meet it more
than six months later. 1t would take
nearly year for such decorative
wave to reach our sun from the earth.
II the earth itself were ball of dyna-
mite. 1t would require half an hour to
explode; and If the sun were a mass
OF dynamite, it would require about
two and half days to explode.

Fire Destroys May Flower.

Telluride, Colo.-The boarding
house, kitchen, bunkhouse and shaft
house of the May Flower mine, in Bri-
dal Vein basin, six miles southeast OF
Telluride, together with all their con-
tents, were totally destroyed by fire,
causing loss of $4,000. The insur-
ance Is $4,000.
The money loss is not the most seri-
ous feature OF the fire, for the open
season is now SO far advanced that re-
building before next spring may be out
OF the question.
The company had been working
steadily all summer getting the mine.

The cottage In East Hampton Long
Island, where John Howard Payne
lived as boy when his father was
principal of Clinton academy in the
village. will be preserved for many
years to come. Its site is needed to
make room for new church, and the
cottage was in danger of destruction
An admirer Of Home, Sweet Home"
has bought the building-it is more
than 200 years old-and will move it
to another site and remodel its in.
terror for use as a summer home. The
outside will be unchanged, SO that
those may be gretified who wish to
see the place which Payne had In

New Customs Regulations.

With view to securing greater
courtesy and dignity in the admins
trauon Of the customs laws, the treas
ury department has issued a series OF
instructions to inspectors, copies of
which will be furnished to each pas
senger on incoming steamers from for
eign countries. For the purpose of
customs administration, passengers
are divided into non-residents of the
United States and residents This
classification has no reference to citi
zenship. Non-residents are of three
classes: actual residents of foreign
countries; persons who have been
abroad with fixed foreign abode for
one year or more, who elect to declare
as non-residents, and persons who
have been abroad for two years, with
or without fixed place of foreign
abode, who elect to declare as non-resi-
dents. Residents include all others.
There is no limit to the value of arti-
cles which non-residents may bring in
free OF duty, explains the Youths Com
panion, provided they are articles ac-
tually accompanying the passenger,
and necessary and appropriate for his
or her use for the purposes of the
journey and present comfort and con.
venience, and not intended for other
persons or for sale. Residents may
bring in all wearing apparel and other
personal effects which they took
abroad with them, if not remodeled
abroad to the value of 500, if the arti.
cles are not for sale. Under the new
regulations passengers are not re.
quired to make oath to their declara.
tions. The offer of bribe or tip
to customs officer will continue to be
held as violation of the law.

Once Prosperous; Now Suicide.

Pueblo.-The dead body of j. b
Johnson, formerly prosperous law
yer. was found in the basement of the
red triangle building at the corner of
Grand and Victoria avenues, where it
probably had laid for several days.
The dead man held in his hand a re-
volver, and wound in his mouth told
how he died. The body was discov-
cred by j. w. Buck, proprietor of a
rooming house in the block, who hap
pened to go to an unused room in the
basement this morning Several days
before he had given Johnson permis-
sion to sleep in this room. Twenty
years ago Johnson had good law
practice and was considered an excel
lent attorney. He allowed drink to get
the best of him and gradually went
down hill. For several years past he
has been spending much time in pros
pecting. So far as known, he has n"

criminal has been discovered.
Brown was the man who arrested

Idaho and for the past six months has
