word watch" and see how often Christ
used it in His teaching.
A vessel was caught in a storm on
Lake Erie. and they were trying to
make for the harbor of Cleveland. At
the entrance to that port they had what
are called the upper lights and the
lower lights. Away back on the bluff
were the upper lights bright enough;
but when they came near the harbor
they could not see the lower lights
showing the entrance to it. The pilos
wanted to go back on the lake, but the
captain was sure they would go down
If they went back and urged the pilot
to do what he could to gain the harbor.
Thev made the attempt, only TO find
themselves finally stranded on the
beach. where the vessel was dashed to
pieces. Someone had neglected the
lower lights and they lad gone out
Let us take warning God keeps
the upper lights burning brightly as
ever. but He has left us down here to
keep the lower lights burning. We
are TO represent Him dcwn here. What
kind Of representatives shall we be?

Three little ones met instant death
in attempting to jump to safety from
the third floor of the burning build
ing.
A man named Dorm discovered his
daughter among the mass of the in
iured and crushed He caught the
girl by the hands and in his frantic
efforts to save her pulled her arms
from her body. Four children of the
janitor of the building lost their
lives in the fire.
The greatest loss was caused by
one of the exits, to which scores of
children rushed, being closed. The
door, which opened inwardly. could
not be opened against the crush, and
many lives were lost. Reports as to
the number of dead vary, but from
the best information at least $50
perished.
OF the nine teachers, seven are ac-
counted for. The pupils were mostly
young, from TO IL.
Parents Raved Cursed and Prayed.
The children rushed for the front
and rear doors and as the flames
shot up became terrified beyond
control. The teachers struggled
bravely to marshal their charges out
of the building with something like
order, but they were helpless.
The doors and windows soon be-
came packed with terrified little
ones, whose panic left them helpless
to escape. Many children descended
the fifire escapes, but feared to jump
on reaching the bottom and were
pulled down to make room for
others.
Fearful scenes were enacted
around the burning school house,
Fathers and mothers raved, cdrsed
and prayed Many tried to break
through the crowd and got so far as
to dash toward the flaming doorway

AS soon as the firemen and volun'

LONG CONTEST
Is SETTLED
LITIGATION OF FIVE YEARS
STANDING SETTLED BY DECI-
SION FROM SECRETARY OF IN,
TERROR FOR J. B. McC0MAS.

The local land Office has just re-
ceived the decision of the secretary
of the interior in the case of Ru-
dolph C. Whitman VS.. Jesse b. Nc
Comas. The secretary awards the
land to McComas. The case involves
a valuable tract of land near Harps-
ter. Idaho. The secretary's opinion
finally disposes of what has often
been referred to as the hardest
fought case that ever came before
the local office.
The case was first commenced by
Whitman about five years ago. Since
that time it has been tried twice on
its merits in the district court of
Idaho county and twice considered
and passed upon by the supreme
court.
The local land officials did not sit
in the case. Mr.. Bartlett, the regis
ter, had appeared as counsel in the
suit before the supreme court, and
for that reason was disqualified. Mr..
Barbor, the receiver, had not yet as
sumed the duties of that Office. One
Mr.. Patterson, special agent of the
government, was called in to hear
and decide the case.
In the local Office the case was de-
cided in favor of Whitman. Nc
Comas took an appeal to the COM
missioner of the general land Office
at Washington, where the decision
OF the trial court was reversed.
Whitman then prosecuted an ap-
peal to the secretary of the interior,
which cour sustained the commits
sioners decision. AS the last named
court is the highest tribunal to pass
upon these cases, McComas will gel
the land involved.
Notoriety has been added to the
case by reason of the ill feeling and
gun play which has figured in il
ever since 1t was begun. But few
months ago a criminal case was up
before the courts at Grangeville
wherein the evidence showed that
whitman had passed through the
harn yard of Mr.. McComas, the aged
lather of ]. B. McComas, one night
whitman, as was his custom, hae
Ialled to close the gates behind him
and the old man requested that
hereafter he would close the gates
whenever he passed through them
"hitman's reply came in the form
OF two bullets which whizzed by ths
old mans head in quick succession
Inc old man, who was standing III
the door of his house, immediatel,
reached up for his rifle and fireC
towards Whitman, who was disap
rearing in the dark, the bullet lodg
ing in the saddle of a pack hors,
Which Whitman was leading.
In the case Alex Kasberg has beer
attorney for j. B. McComas and j
., West and Samuel Herrick o
Washington have appeared fo
Whitman.
