SHOCKING HOLOCAUST
Congressman D'Armond And
Grendson The VIC
Tins.
Tragedy Carries Heart-ThrObs of SOr.
row Throughout the Entire Re-
public and Brings Messages
of Coincidence.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov 23-In a
vain effort to save the life of his little
grandson, Congressman David A.
D'Armond, of the Sixth Missouri dis
Crict, perished in a fire that destroyed
mis- home in Butler, Mo-, early today
His act of heroism became known
late this afternoon, when his body was
found, his arms locked around the
Dlackened and burned body of the
little boy. He had caught up the, six
year-old lad, David A. C'Waddie")
D'Armond, Jr., and rushed with him
through the flames that filled his
room. He fell with his unconscious
burden and both sank through the
door to death.
What makes the tragedy unusually
pathetic is the fact that the boy was
mis- grandfather's idol. The two were
inseparable and often slept together
Last night the boy went to his grand.
fathers house as usual, and after a
nappy evening the two retired.
The next the family heard of them
was today when, from behind the
smoke and flames that enveloped the
mouse the boy screamed:
"Oh, grandpa, get me out of here
quick. I'm burning to death"
Yes, son, don't be afraid Grand
pa will take you OUT was the reply.
Then both went down to their death.
The others of the family sleeping
in the house at the time of the fire,
Mrs. DArmond, her daughter, Mrs.
Clark, and a maid, Nettie Boles, es-
capped.
Messages of coincidence from all
parts of the country were received by
the Diamonds this afternoon.
James A. DArmond, editor of the
Bates County Democrat, son of the
congressman and father of the boy
who was burned to death, tried to
rush into the burning house to save
them, but was saved by others who
knew his sacrifice would be in vain.
The DArmond home was a large
two-story frame structure. set well
back from the street. On two sides OF
| the house equal with the second floor
rooms or outdoor sleeping apartments
had been constructed, and at the time
the fire broke out the occupants of the
house occupied these rooms.
The financial loss is placed at $2O.-
600, and included one of the best libra
ries in the state. L Il
i Besides James A. D'Armond, the
sons of the dead congressman are
Edwin H., an instructor at West Point,
and Lieut.. George w. Diamond, now
serving with the army in the Philip
pines. Mrs. Clark is daughter.
i Congressman Diamond and his lit.
tie grandson will have a double fun.
eral on Friday. The burial will be in
Oakhill Cemetery at Butler.
Messages of coincidence were re
ceived today from Speaker Joseph G
Cannon and from President Taft TIL,
latter sent the following message Il
!. Mrs. D,Armond:
Mrs. Taft and I are shocked t
hear the dread news. We sympathiz
most deeply with you in your sorrow
Your husband and / were very init
mate. I valued his friendship mos
: highly. He was an honest, able sci
want of the public and patriot. M
heart goes out to you in your loss"

very much, and we fear has perma-

there are some laborers who come to
work for him whose heads are hollow
but they soon get them full of saw
dust while working near the sawdust
elevator, and it was one of this kind
who cut the tree down on the mule.
Mr.. Will r. Hines was cutting a
string with sharp-pointed knife and
In some way the knife came in contact
with his leg, making very deep and
painful cut, which has given him con-
siderable inconvenience for several
days. His many friends regret his
misfortune, and trust he may soon be
restored to his former health and ac-
tivity.
There are two more cases of small

Sylvester Williams, a smart, and
worthy darkey, who lives on Mr.. Luby
Edwards farm, lost his house and en-
tire contents by fire one night last
week. He and his wife went to "a
neighbor's to stay till bedtime, and
when he started home saw his house
burning. 1t is thought to have been
fired by rats, as the back end was
burning, and was falling in when dis
covered. The darkey lost everything
he had, which falls heavily upon him
The people of the community contrib
uted literally toward helping him,
which is evidence of their good will
and popularity of the unfortunate
darkey.

not clear. Generally Gov. Brady is
blamed. 1t is recalled that at the open
ing of the big exposition Gov. Brady
and staff chartered a special train and
made such appearance in Seattle as to
give the state the best representation.
But that show was not permanent,
and when the governor and his retinue
returned home there remained only
beautiful but empty building as an at
traction to the many thousands of per-
sons who have since visited the big
show and the many more who will visit
it before the gates close in the fall.
This paper is not informed on the
manner in which the money was to be
used that was appropriated by Idaho
for the exhibit, but it seems there has
been lack of harmony, to say the least,
in carrying out the program. 1t was a
duty of the state to furnish the building,
and it was right that the state should
be officially represented at the opening
and the representation be as creditable
as it was possible to make it. The
several counties are better able to sup
ply the exhibits of the grains, fruits,
minerals, ETC., in which each excels,
and if the program had been carried
out along such line harmony would
have prevailed and the fair visitors
could have Toasted their eyes upon the
many good things produced by Idaho
farms, Idaho mines, Idaho forests and
streams, by Idaho people. Whose is to
blame that it is not 50?

S. p. Jellun.

The death Of S. P. Jellum was 2 hard
blow to central Idaho interests, be cause
it took away one Of its strongest, best
informed friends, one who was just
getting into position where he could
do great deal in the development Of
the central Idaho mining region. Mr.
Jellum was a man well up in his pro-
fession Of mining engineer. There was
nothing false in him. His manner and
bearing established confidence in him,
and mining men were drawn TO him be-
cause Of the truth they could gather
through companionship with him.
Mr.. Jellum probably was better in
formed on central Idaho, from an engi-
neer's standpoint, than any other man
that ever visited the districts. In his
Office in Spokane he was in a position
TO know something Of the relative value
Of all the mining districts in the north
west. So when he was urged by a
publication year ago 10 come into
central Idaho and write it up, the inyi-
tation found willing acceptance. Mr.
Jellum was here several months. What
he saw convinced him that this region
as q mining region holds wonderful pos
sibilities, and i was with the aim Ia

The Meadows Eagle, after reporting

makes the boast: "Never, in the

has it been necessary for a visitor to

said of the hospitality of Meadows, and

clined to believe the good reports to be
