DEAD IN HOTEL FIRE.
Many Guests Lose Lives by Burning
of Fort Wayne Hosiery.

Fort Wayne, Ind, May 5.-Ten
/ known dead, many missing and 10
seriously injured is the result Of a
fire that destroyed the new Avelina
hotel, Fort Wayne's principal hosiery
at an early hour Sunday. Chief Of
Police Anckenbruck said Sunday af-
ternoon he believed 20 bodies were
still in the ruins.
The entire interior of the building
is a smoldering heap of ruins and how
many dead are concealed by the debris
can only be conjectured.
The fire department rescued many
by means Of ladders, but some, fFen-
zied by the onward rush of the flames,
leaped from high windows to the
paved street.
At II o'clock Monday no other
bodies had been found in the ruins,
but much debris remained to be
cleared away. Coroner A. J. Kester
began an inquiry into the fire Monday
All persons connected with the hotel
and all guests remaining in the city or
confined by their illness to hospitals
were summoned to appear at the in
quest, Coroner Kester says he will
make a most searching investigation.
1t has been disclosed with practical
certainty that the fire had its origin
from the furnace of the hotels heating
plant and not from defective electric
wiring in the elevator shaft.

He Didn't Care.

81 like simplicity" said Senator
Beverage to Washington reporter
Simplicity saves us lot of trouble,
too. Two men met In front of hotel
one day and fell into a political argu
ment. They were ordinary, everyday
sort Of men, but one of them had an
extraordinary flow of polysyllabic Ian
guage. He talked half an hour, and
his companion listened in doze.
Gan now the speaker pompously
concluded, perhaps you will coincide
with me?'
"The others face frightened up.
why, yes, thanks, old man, he de-
clared heartily, moving toward the
barroom door, I don't care If | do"

Somebody rather pertinently sug'
gests that people should have tele-
phone hours as we'll as hours when
they receive callers. The telephone
breaks in on everybody's time in a
way that would not be tolerated II the
people who use it came in person.
This is true in the home, in business
establishments and in Offices. A pa
tient is in a doctors Office, for exam
pie, keeping special engagement and
with his own time limited, or he Ia in
q dentists chair, when the telephone
bell rings and the doctor or dentist
leaves him and engages in long con-
versation over the wire. Everyone,
comments the Indianapolis Star, has
been irritated by the tyranny of this
instrument and the manner in which
It penetrates privacy and trespasses on
time. A system of telephone etiquette
ought to be established.

Congressman Olmstead asked the
agricultural committee Of the house to
tell him how much it costs to keep a
hen year. Whether he wants to keep
q hen and does not wish to go at 1t
blindly, or whether he desires to en-
gage In a statistical calculation in re-
gard to the poultry industry is not
known, nor is it important. The sig
nificant thing is that not member Of
the committee could tell him what he
wanted to know. One ventured the
opinion that the keep Of hen costs
next to nothing" while another fixed
the expense at s1.75 year. What is
an agricultural committee for, asks the
indianapolis Star, if it is not primed
on subjects like this; and what does it
cost to keep hen, anyway?

80 BUSHELS OF OATS
TO THE ACRE.
WHAT Mr.. KALTENBRUNNER HAS
TO SAY ABOUT HIS GRAIN
CROPS IN CENTRAL
CANADA.

Writing from Regina, Saskatche
van, Central Canada, Mr.. A. Kalten-
Drummer writes:-
Some years ago / took up home.
stead for myself, and also one for my
son. The half section which we own
adjoins the Moose Jaw Creek; is a
low, level and heavy land. We put
N 70 acres of wheat in stubble which
went 20 bushels to the acre, and 30
acres of summer fallow, which went
rs bushels to the acre. All the wheat
we harvested this year is No. 1 Hard
That means the best wheat that can
be raised on the earth. We did not
sell any wheat yet, as we intend to
keep one part for our own seed, and
sell the other part to people who want
first class seed, for there is no doubt
II you SOW good wheat you will har
vest good wheat. We also threshed
1000 bushels Of first class oats out Of
100 acres. 80 acres has been fall
blowing, which yielded 80 bushels
per acre, and so acres stubble, which
went 30 bushels to the acre. These
oats are the best kind that can be
raised. We have shipped three car
loads of them, and got SO cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
On the last week of the month OF
August before any frost could touch it
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had late spring, and that the
weather conditions this year were
very adverse and unfavorable, we will
make more money out of our crop
this year than last.
For myself ! feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked, even by unusual conditions

Is profanity on the streets and in
other public places getting to be more
prevalent in this community than
elsewhere? asks the Boston Herald.
An intelligent and observant visitor
here says it is. He has travelled far
and wide and he testifies that one
hears the name of the Almighty taken
in vain more frequently by men and
boys in our eastern cities, and particu-
larly in Boston, than in any Of the less
boosted or boastful centers Of culture
and civilization. This is rather seri.
GUS indictment Of our manners and
morals. II it is warranted by the facts
1t might be well to call for the more
rigid and vigorous enforcement Of the
ancient law on the subject. 1t covers
the offence.

ENGLISH and American Abuses.

English and American Abuses.
There is one form of the abuse Of
wealth in politics from which England
at present is comparatively free. She
does not suffer from the problems OF
corporations in politics. 1t is rare
thing for statutory company, such,
for instance, as a railway company, or
for joint stock company of any kind,
to contribute from its funds to the
campaign chests of political parties.
The thing is not unknown-there was
q case about a year ago In which the
directors of one of the great railway
companies were found to have sub
scribed to the moderate party In the
London county council elections. But
on the whole the practice is frowned
upon both by public opinion and by
the general sense Of the commercial
community. Nor does the political ne

The alliance between corporations and
politics in the United States. the
first is that in an expanding, half-de-
veloped country the number OF good
things to be picked up in the way OF
concessions is beyond comparison
greater than in such land as Eng
land. The second reason why the
trusts cannot leave politics alone IN
America is that politics cannot leave
the trusts alone, and their action and
reaction seem to be enormously inten'
sified and complicated by the Ameri'
can system Of government in self-con'
tanned compartments.
