CAUSES A LOSS
j OF ON E :: million | ! Q
All Night Fire Sweeps City
of Kalamazoo, Mich.
HOTEL GUESTSROUTED OUT

Three Hundred Half Clad People
Driven Into the Icy Streets, Many
to Remain Several Hours Without
s sheIter-FIames Finally Brought
Under Control by the Assistance of
Outside Fire Departments.
Kalamazoo, Mich, Dec. 1L-One life
was lost, many firemen were over
come by smoke, 300 hotel guests were
driven, half clad, into the icy streets
and property valued at approximately
M.000,000 was destroyed by a fire here
which was extinguished only after an
adj night struggle by the combined
DIRE fighting forces of Kalamazoo, Bat
lie Creek and Grand Rapids.
starting in the basement of the Star
Bargain House the flames, famed by
. strong southwest wind, spread east
ward along the north side of Main
street, totally destroying the Burdick
House, four-story hotel and store
building, covering more than half a
city block.
On an arcade running north through
the Burdick building to Water street
were half dozen small commercial
establishments and these were burned
out.
Sweeping eastward on Main street
from the Burdick the flames ate their
way through the Postal Telegraph
End American Express Offices, Chase's
shoe store, Bowldeck's mems furnish
other business places.
AS it became apparent that the To-
cal fire department would be unable
to cope with the situation aid was
summoned from Battle Creek, twenty
Ave miles east, and Grand Rapids,
dRty miles north.
Refugees Suffered In the Cold.
Guests in the Burdick House, warned
Of their danger, fed hastily to the
street, many of them scantily clothed,
and some were compelled to remain
in the biting cold several hours be-
fore finding shelter.
While the flames we're raging in the
hotel man suddenly appeared at an
upper window and cried for help. Be-
fore a ladder could be put in position
he disappeared and, it is believed, per-
zshed in the fire.
The extent of the fire is attributed
to the fact that the city depends on
artesian wells for a water supply and
because the amount available was en-
tirely inadequate. A large standpipe
at an asylum was connected with the
city mains, but afforded only tenn
porary relief
So great was the shortage of water
that at one time only two streams
could be directed upon the fire and
these barely reached TO the third
floors.
At $50 a. m. city main was con-
nected with nearby creek and with
the aid of the Battle Creek and Grand
Rapids fremen the flames at last were
brought under control.

Women Who Wear Wen.

II is astonishing how great change
few years OF married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from II
peach which is rudely handled. Tho
matron Is only dim shadow, faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
tho shock to the system through tho
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often como with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

FORESTRY IN THE
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES

On the 9TH of November a brief ac-
count was given in News Notes. pub
lished by the Colorado Agricultural
College, of a measure before both the
houses Of congress proposing to assist
the agricultural colleges of the country
% take up the subject of forestry by
study and experimentation.
Very naturally, everyone interested
would like to know how the matter is
progressing. The answer, in brief, is,
finely. OF the forty-eight states and
territories tbirty-seven colleges have ex-
pressed n hearty approval and readiness
to assist For the most part this has
been done by the president or some of
ficial to whom the matter was referred.
Only one has questioned it and the
chief criticism is not aimed at the
wisdom and necessity of forestry in ag-
ricultural colleges, per Sc, but is mere
ly academic.
Colleges from ten states have not yet
responded Int it j safe to presume that
mos if not all of them, would be just
as desirohs to have such measure be
come a law as the thipsyseven which
have said so. 80
The measure may not get through the
present short session, bus doubtless it
would if it were not for the peculiar
conditions that have arisen to distract
attention and absorb the interest of
congress in other directions. 1t is one
OF many hundreds of bills before con
gres5 at this time but few of which
can have Il hearing. The mass must
die. This may be one of the number:
but, if it should, the propaganda will
be continued, a new bill presented, and
the effort prolonged until it becomes a
law.
