Fourche Has a s7o,ooo Fire Loss.

Fire completely destroyed three business houses, one of which was a large structure with three business rooms, and also two small houses at Fourche at an early hour Saturday morning, resulting in loss of about S70000. The fire practically wiped out the business section of the town. It started in the rear of the Forte store and it's origin is unknown. There is said to be but little insurance.
 When discovered the rear door of the Forte store was open and the theory has been advanced that the store was burglarized and then set on fire to hide the theft.
 The fire spread rapidly to two ad- joining business houses and to the two cottages, one of which was oc- cupied by T. A. Reichardt, railroad agent there, and the other by W. Il. Riley. MT. Reichardt lost about $50 in cash and a gold watch in his hurry to move his household goods out. The household goods in both houses were saved The postoffice and local telephone exchange were destroyed.
 The principal loss was on the build ing and stock of the Forte store. The stock was owned by H. w. Forte and J. NJ. Swilling. The building was owned by Mir Forte. The loss on the building and stock is estimated at about $60,00O The remainder of the loss is estimated at between 5000 and s10000.
 All of the buildings were of wood and burned rapidly, but a bucket brig ade was formed and other adjoining buildings were saved.

Street Car Collision.

Six persons were badly shaken up and bruised in a rear-end collision be- tween two cars on the Pulaski Heights line shortly after go o'clock Sunday night. The injured are:
 Mrs. w. A. Walker, 5t4 Main street, Argenta; Mrs. King. 513 Main street, Argenta; J. II. Sangston, 515 Main street, Argenta; O. R Hurt. 1922 See ond street; two children of Mir. Hurt.
 All of the injured were removed to their homes. The wreck took place about 300 yards east of the fifth sta tion One of the cars was standing on the track awaiting the signal to go ahead, when, suddenly, the other car dashed into it. The platforms of both cars was split into kindling wood According to persons on the car struck, the other car was coming down the hill at slow rate of speed, when suddenly 1t shot forward at a high rate, and struck the other car. While the real cause of the wreck could not be learned Sunday night, owing to the fact that the railroad officials had not completed their in vestigation, it was stated by some, who witnessed the accident. that the air brakes on the car going down hill failed to work This, however, could not be confirmed.
 Immediately after the news of the wreck was received at the car barns, word was sent to Superintendent C. J.. Griffith That official in company with several other officers of the street car company, went at once 10 the scene of the wreck. and rendered every as sistance possible in removing the in jured to their homes.

The West in the Lead.

The west as whole is far beyond the east in it's abatement of the smoke nuisance In St. Paul some four years ago, the work was given over to the department of health, whose first act was to lay the following question be- fore the local and national unions of steam engineers and fremen: Can the smoke nuisance as it exists today be reasonably prevented without tn- jury to trade and manufacturing inter ests?" This question was unanimous ly answered in the affirmative by the members of both unions. Notices were were imposed when necessary, a mini mum fine of $25 for the first ofense, doubled for each succeeding one. The work has been most successful. and besides an abatemement of smoke, a saving of fuel is reported. In MilWau- kee an ordinance which has gone through periods of relaxation and others of strict enforcement. has been successful when properly managed, continues Hollis Godfrey in the Allan. tic. About half the city al the time of a recent report used smokc-con, suming devices, about one-fourth used hard coal or smokeless fuel. The gen eral condition of the city was admir- able. So admirable indeed, that the title of the ordinance passed by the common council is worth quoting in full as an epitome of what such an ordinance should be-

 The police were in possession Of no information that would aid her and at the orphans home it was impossible to find out the present whereabouts of the boy The matron at the home stated that eight years ago two boys by the name of Hensley were placed in the hands of the Home Finding So ciety and were placed at the home to board while homes were being found for them. In a few weeks both boys were placed with families in the county. but did not long remain and were passed about from home to home until all trace of them was lost by those in charge of the home.

State Capital Notes
Old Pension List All Checked Up.

The state pension board has finish ed the checking up of the old pension CTS on the lists, of whom there were about 5000 last year. There are 700 or 800 new applications to be consid- cred yet, and it will probably be Sep tember l before the work is entireiy completed These new applications are first submitted to the county pen sion boards and by them forwarded to the state board for consideration. The amounts these pensioners draw each year may be anywhere from S25 to $l00. The last legislature made an increase in some of the pensions. notably to those of all widows of Con. federate soldiers who were entitled to a pension The amount allowed 10 such widows is the maximum Of $l00.
 The amount of money available for the payment of pensions has not been sufficient to pay them in full. Last year they received 46 per cent of the amount allowed tn"m by the board. If there was no change in the number of pensioners this year the percent age they would receive would be more, as the levy for this purpose was increased by the last legislature from mill to 1 1-2 mills. But there will be the new names on the list, and some increases on the old roster, while there are some who have died, leaving no widows and whose names will be dropped So no accurate esti- mate of the percentage the pensioners may receive this year can be made Ut this time.
 Under the law no warrants can be drawn for the payment of these pen sions until the first of September.

Now international Affair.

Count z Morani. chief consul for the Italian government in the United States arrived in Van Duren Tuesday morning from New Orleans and spent the greater part of the cay in the of. flee of Superintendent Murphy of the Iron Mountain, gathering facts con. corning the mobbing of the strike breaking Italian laborers brought to Van Buren last June by tha Iron Mountain 10 supplant the striking car. men there.
 It will be remembered that mob of blacks and whites went 10 the yards where the Italians were quarter ed in bunk cars and opened fire upon them, slightly wounding a number of the Italians. The visit of Count Morani at this time was to gather such evidence as his government would need in presenting their claim at Washington for damages The count before leaving secured all the names of the men indicted for participation in the riot.
 It has been feared by the railwa! fficials and many citizens at van Buren that international eomplica tions would arise from the affair ana the visit of a representative of the Italian government at this time shows that their fears are well founded

pr. Bond Defends His Bill.

Dr. J. B. Bond of this city, author of the pure food law, which has been declared faulty by Deputy Commits sioner of Agriculture William Stod- dard on the ground that it is not prac- tical in many respects, Tuesday con ferred with Mir. Stoddard at the state house regarding the law. Dr. Bond declared that he believed the law good one, and defended 1t. The con ference was not held for any specific purpose, the two simply talking the matter over Mir. Stoddard thinks the law is weak and has already an nounced that he will suggest that either a new one be passed or the old one be changed at the next session of the legislature.
 Dr. Bond in the course of the con versation with Mir Stoddard, declared that he did not believe it is right to compel a man who puts out hundreds of bottles of soda, pop or anything else day to label each bottle, talk ing the stand that it is a waste e. time AIr Stoddard merely listened. It is known, however, that he is op- posed to the present law. He declares that 1t is impossible to investigate conditions affected by the law in the state in the first place, and that it is impossible 10 prosecute cases Of vIo- lation of the law afterward No ar engagements have been made for

Woman's Body Found in Cistern.

Jumping or falling into a eistern full of water, Mrs D. x. Dial. wife of Dr. Rial. one of the most prominent women of Pocahontas, came TO her death by drowning Sunday morning. No cause is known for the action, which has created big sensation there owing to the social prominence of the lady
 Mrs. Dial was missed at her home early in the morning Nothing was thought of her absence, al first, but later, becoming uneasy her family instituted a search. About that time it was noticed that the covering of the cistern at the dial residence had been removed and the body of Mrs. Dial was found floating in the water Theories to the effect that it was an accident have been discredited by some because of the allegation that Mrs. Dial could not have fallen into the cistern accidentally, but the top may have been removed by someone else and the lady have fallen in.
 No note of any kind was left and the affair is a complete mystery.
 Mrs. Dial was the wife of a we'll known optician.

No proposition could be more thor oughly in keeping with the eternal fit ness of things than that which has reference to a national Lincoln high. way" from Washington to Gettysburg. The plan in outline is to construct a load between the points mentioned, a distance of 72 miles, to be a memorial to the martyred president. IL is in tended to make the highway as perfect a road as can be devised. In time, if constructed and maintained as in tended, 1t would become one of the most notable sights. Kept in thorough condition a great driveway through a park like border, with residences, statuary and other features. the high way would be a magnificent public road, remarks the Troy tN. " Times. And as a direct connecting link be tween Washington and Gettysburg, with both of which Lincoln's fame is inseparably connected, what could be more appropriate?
