 Work by Fire Department

Fire of unknown origin, which broke cut in the basement of the Old Domiu- len Commercial company s store, at o'clock yesterday morning, resulted in damage to the extent of $35,000 to the stock and fixtures of the store.
 So rapidly did the flames spread that volumes of suffocating smoke prevented the fire department froio extinguishing ,he fire until it had spread from the easement to the main floor. Here the hfe loss was slight, but the water used In ext'nguishing it damaged nearly all 0fthe stock on this floor, besides injur-

ing the fixtures. The basement was flooded, running large amount of goods.
 The loss is estimated at $32,000 on the stock with probably an additional damage of 5000 on the building and fixtures.
 The loss win probably be entirely cov- cred by insurance.
 Something like hundred pounds of giant powder, temporarily stored in the basement, together with a quantity of caps, was carried out by nervy fire fighter. The box containing the caps was charred and blaekened. An explo-

1 1t IS supposed that heavy iron post, running from the basement to the top of the main floor became overloaded and set fire to quantity of silks and other light fabrics hanging in close proximity with this post.
 1 Three lines of hose were soon pouring water on the flames, in both the base ment and the main floor. While one detachment fought the lower fire from the rear, another company tore loose 8 ventilator on the main floor near the front entrance and through this open ing fought the blaze from the front.
 Smoke from the basement fire filled the whole store and was suffocating at times. So quickly did the smoke fill the main store that several customers escaped with difficulty.
 | No Sign of Panic. In spite of the sudden outbreak of the fire, there was no panic among the employees.
 A quantity of ammunition in the hardware department was at once car ried out and a few cans of coal oil and gasoline, stored temporarily in the base ment were similarly disposed of.
 The identity of the nervy fire fight CT who carried out the g ant powder and dynamite caps has not been learned. He certainly deserves credit for his bravery. &s
 Remove Debris at Once.
 Hardly had the flames been ex- tinguished until force of men was at work carrying out the debris. By even ing the store presented fairly orderly appearance, although piles of damaged goods, broken show cases and water soaked fixtures were to be seen, evidence of the damage caused by fire and water.
 Loss Is We'll Covered.
 ''I figure that the damage on the stock will run to $30,000 or more, with probably $3,00O damage to the build ing and fixtures" said Cashier A. T. Hammons to the Silver Belt yesterday, after partial investigation had been made.
 There was large quantity of gro- ceries and other perishable articles in the basement, which were badly dam aged. Some of the goods which were unpacked are probably uninjured, but the majority of the stock is damaged and good portion of it ruined.
 "Water did most of the damage on the main floor. The stock of wearing apparel, furnishings, shoes and the like is practically ruined. The fixtures, are damaged by water and will have to be refnished throughout the store.
 ''The bank will be open for business Monday, in fact it has been open all day, many people coming in to make deposits. The grocery department will probably be in running order by Wednesday. It will probably be week before the dry goods department is ready for business again.

PHOENIX, April 3O.--By the end of this week Francis E. Leupp, commis. sioner of Indian affairs, is expected to arrive in Phoen.x from Washington, D. C., for the purpose of making per sonal investigation of the epidemic of trichoma, which prevails among the pupils in the Phoenix Indian school and among the Ind.an children of Arizona generally.
 Between 200 and 300 of the children at the Indian school. are said to be suffering from sore eyes, the majority of whom are victims of trichoma, which, in the opinion of the federal govern ment, is sufficient to prohibit the land ing of foreigners.
 Attention has been called several times to the epidemic of trichoma among the pupils of the Phoenix Indian school especially since it has spread to num- insurance and the loss will not reach this figure.
 "The fire department did very good work in putin gout the fire and we cer. tainly appreciate the masterly manner in which they handled the blaze"
 Two Employees Injured.
 Charles B. Hynes, bookkeeper, was badly cut on the left knee by piece of glass. Several stitches were required to close the wound. Charles A. Garden, assistant cashier, was cut about the hands by glass. His injuries are not serious.
 Fire Boys Win Laurels.
 The fire department did excellent work in checking the flames. A base ment fire is always difficult to cope with and that the entire building was not destroyed is due to the prompt and eff eient action of the Volunteers.

sion of this blasting material would have wrecked the entire building.
 The origin of the fire is as yet un- explained. Crossed electric wires seem to afford the most plausible theory.
 The fire started almost in the center of the basement, in pile of soda crack CTS and tobacco, stacked nearly to the ceiling. Several electric wires were strung along the timbers supporting the main floor and a short circuit might have ignited the inflammable packages.
 Three or four employees of the store had been at work in the basement for ar hour, when the fire started. Man ager M. C.. Kenton had been at almost the exact spot where the fire started, but few minutes before the alarm was sounded

Smoke Delays Firemsn.

As soon as the fire was discovered, Kenton secured hose which was stored in the basement for fire purposes, an dattempted to drown out the blaze. The thick, suffocating smoke prevented him from discovering the exact location of the blaze and before he could do any effective work he wal overcome and had to be carried, half suffocated, to the outside.
 The fire company was on the scene in short order, but before they could use the hose to any advantage, the flames had broken out on the main floor.

weed is known by the right name and
the seed is not known at ALL Some
times the seed is well recognized be-
cause perhaps, millers and elevator
men have refused to buy grain con-

of destructive weed pests, wholly un-
certain as to the possible methods the
weed may have of reproducing itself
One of the commonest questions that
this department has to answer is:
Does this weed grow from the root
year after year or does It grow simply
from the seed?" This Is such a very
simple question that one could sus-
pect anyone might be able to answer
it, should he take the trouble to make

Training Horses to Be Jumpers

Few spectacles arouse more enthu-
siasm than field Of horses flying
over obstacles in competition for a
purse or trophy or in pursuit of a
fox. To all appearances the hedges
and fences add little to the difficulty
Of the task set for the we'll trained
and eager animals. The spectator, in
fact, will at times gain the impression
that the actors delight in performing
their parts. To the onlooker the feat
appears easy-merely a question of
rising and clearing each obstacle as it
is encountered.
Yet training horse for steeple-
chasing, hurdling or hunting presents
serious difficulties. Not all horses are
inclined to exercise their natural abil-
lty to jump, especially when confront
ed with the difficult obstacles that
must be cleared On the race track or
in the hunting field. For work of this
kind the art Of jumping must be cul.
tlvated. The animal must learn to
jump high and far, and it is often a
tedious task before the training is
hnlShed
The men who teach horses to lump
for purposes of steeplechasing and
hunting look for Iize and conforma-
ton along approved lines. Especially
large animals are not desired, because
as rule they are clumsy and lacking
in speed. Neither DO they care for
the small horse, which must naturally
