.ORIGIN OF The
MYSTERIOUS FIRE
FIRE CHIEFS REPORT SETS
AT REST MALICIOUS
STORIES.

The mystery of the fire on Summit
street on Tuesday night is mystery
no longer. Fire Chief Jack McKen-
zie, after full investigation of the
premises, announced yesterday that
there was no doubt that the fire orig
mated in the part of the house occu-
pied by Mrs. Reynolds.
The other part of the house had
been occupied by Joseph Vucovich,
steward at the Elks headquarters.
and his wife They had paid the rent
for the present month, but were COM
PEELED to leave the premises on ac-
count of the annoyance of some of
the neighbors, and there were yelled
hints that one of them had set fire
to the house by way of reprisal.
These reports were doubtlessly set
afloat by the aforesaid neighbors, out
of sheer malice. Mrs. Reynolds knew
nothing of the origin of the fire, for
she was so frightened that she had
to be assisted out of the house before
the department arrived. The report
of Chief Mckenzie sets at rest all
suspicion which might have attached
to anybody as an incendiary.

GOOD news FOR
The HOUSEHOLDER
NEVADA CALIFORNIA POWER
COMPANY MAKES A BIG
REDUCTION.

There is joy in store for the house
holders, and for all others using cleo
trio lights The Nevada-C California
Power Company has made big cut,
which is effective from January LIST,
and which will make the bills of
everybody much less for the coming
pay day, and every month thereafter.
Service for which we used to pay
thirty cents a kilowatt, will now be
supplied for twenty cents a kilowatt,
and on top of this there is a discount
of 20 per cent on bills paid before
the tenth of the month.
This means reduction, practical
| ly, of 20 per cent to residences and
SO 1-3 per cent to big customers.
Formerly the minimum rate for \
kilowatt was thirty cents, now it is
twenty cents Where over fifty kilo-
watts are used in the month, there is
reduction from twenty-one cents to
eighteen cents.
Where they get into the big es-
! Establishments using a great many
| lights, the reduction will be much
| more noticeable, the rate getting
down as low as nine cents kilo-
watt.

RAW JUSTICE
AT RAWHIDE
MAN ATTACKED AND BEATEN
is FINED BY THE
COURT.

Here is high grade sample of
even-handed justice as it is dealt
out in Rawhide. The dealer is Judge
Armstrong. Frank Boehme is one
of the men who brought his own and
friends capital into the camp. He
bought an interest in the famous
Murray lease, and the squatters be-
gan coming inon top of him so thick
that it began to be a question as to
where he was going to sink his next
shaft.
A husky teamster named Carey
started to put up his tent on the
property, and Mr.. Boehme, taking
time by the forelock, went to him and
demonstrated with him. He told him
that the property belonged to his
company and the teamster wanted to
know what he was going to do about
| it.
Why returned Mr.. Boehme,
softly, I'VE may have to sink shaft
there and a blast might blow up your
| tent"
That was all. Carey swung with
his right on the Boehme optic and
| Mr. Boehme, who is a cripple, went
down and out. Then Carey decided
that he would beat the gentleman to
the justice of the peace, and taking
advantage of his comatose condition,
swore out warrant, charging him
with disturbing the peace Mr..
Boehme gave bail, and he and hrs
friends laughed over the situation,
and thought that although the joke
was tough one, it was on Boehme,
and let it go at that.
On Monday everybody was hailed
into court, and his honor sat with
dignified calm, while Plaintiff Carey
went over the scene of the day be-

Not he"
That is ALL said the attorney.
If your honor please we ask that the
case be dismissed, there having been
no showing made that the defendant
disturbed the peace of anybody, and
least of all that of the plaintiff. There
is absolutely Ad.. evidence here on
which to hang a case"

At the end of the hour everybody
came back to court, and when they
were all seated, his honor laid his
cigar on the table, and looked around
wisely, and said:
We'll, | find the defendant guilty
and fine him $25 and the costs OF
court
Mr.. Boehme lodged the blow, fol-
|
ments in Rawhide, and as soon as
his attorney recovered his composura
he said quietly:
I'VE give notice of appeal"

:. looked at the attorney, then at the
defendant, and again at the assistant
district attorney. Then he picked III
his still lighted cigar, then put /
down again. He saw that the crow,

ally said:

Many Topeka man and woman

weather from Colorado or Niagara
Falls and breathed a sigh of relief to
get back home. and they have de-
clared that they stood the hot weather
right here as well as they did while
away at the springs or the sea shore.
During May, June and October the
Topeka climate is equal to that of any
health resort in the world. During
these months. to use Proctor Knots
famous simile. Topeka sis situated
exactly half way between the ATTITUDES
of Paris and of Venice. Now any per-
son who has breathed the exhilarating
airs of the one and bathed in the
golden sunlight of the other must see
at a glance that this must be a place
of untold delights, terrestrial para

The Publisher and the Subscriber.

Important amendments to the Unit
ed States postal regulations went into
effect January LIST and government in
enforcement.
One rule especially concerns news
paper subscribers. They must hence
forth under the law be genuine. Dead
head or padded publications are de
barred from the pound postal rates ac-
corded 10 regular and legitimate news
papers. More than that: the govern
ment insists upon subscribers paying
up. Publishers cannot extend cred.
to a daily subscriber for more than
three months; to tri-weekly subscrib
ers for more than six months, Or tC
weekly subscribers for more than one
year. Beyond these limitations they
are not classed as subscribers, and
papers addressed to them will not be
accepted at the usual newspaper pos
tage rates.
The government inspectors have &C
cess to the mailing lists of all papers
and when the subscription date indi
scribed in the department regulations
that paper is excluded from the regu
lar pound-rate newspaper mail. 1t can
only be sent by the addition of one
cent stamp as in the case of a transient
publication OF course this would
make an almost prohibitory rate tC
mail subscribers and would almost in
variably make the delivery of the paper
a day later than under the usual plan
The idea of the postal department.
| is that the voluntary cash subscriber
to regular publication is entitled tC
the best and cheapest mail service
there is, and that the cost of deliv
ering gratuitous, advertising, or inter
mittent publications should not in any
way be borne by them.
A great deal of the postal defici
of recent years it is argued by the de
partment has been due to the fact tha
| the government has allowed newspaper
pound rates to many fake publications
put out for purely advertising pur
poses and having enormously swOlleT
but Legitimate subscription lists.
Under the new regulation the vol
untary. paid-in-adyance subscriber ha'
the right of way-and the publishes
has no other alternative
