The dancers rushed from the build |
ing the sounding of the first alarm,
as 1t was discovered the hotel was
afire. The flames were first discov-
cred in the second story of the build
ing in the back wing by G. l.. Logue
of the Western Ore Purchasing COM
pany Shortly before the alarm was
sounded, several of the dancers de-
tected the smell of smoke, but
thought nothing serious of it. A
crowd of men Immediately started
through the building to awake the
sleepers and several had narrow es-
capes owing to the rapidity with
which the flames spread. 1t was sew
eral minutes before the fire came
through the roof, and in this time the
second story was nearly mass of
flames. A hose was connected with
the hydrant in front of the building
and even the high pressure of the wa
ter was unable to extinguish the
confiagration.
Within short time the fire spread
to the building near, which was oc-
cupied by the cooks and mattresses of
the hotel and this was burned to the
ground. Within an hour from the
time the alarm was sounded the
Linsay was nothing but a pile of
smouldering ashes from which hard
ly anything of value had been saved.
The crowd that started to awake
the roomers succeeded in saving sew
eral from a burning death. Ike Pi-
SEX, who is employed as crusherman
in the Belmont mill, was sleeping
when the fire started, and when he
awoke his room was mass of flames.
He ran through the burning hallway
and was so badly burned that he fell
before the outside was reached. Will
ing hands carried him to safe spot
where it was discovered that he was
frightfully burned. The flesh fel
from his body in pieces and he suf
fered untold agony. He was made al
comfortable as possible to await the
coming of the doctors from Tonopah
who were summoned when it be
came known that medical help wa
needed.
Henry Koppen, baker employed
at the hotel, was also badly burned
He was also asleep at the time tn
fire started and received his burn
while making his escape.

but women. so far, have net been
given the means with which to util-
iZe. said Mrs. Ellen II. Richards, of
the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, Boston, in her address today.
To whom shall we turn for expert
ence and knowledge? The man in
the industrial world?
The management of American in
dustries. the methods of the Amer
lean business world stand at the very
front. brought there by using the
lessons of experience to form a def
mite science of business methods. The
home cannot be maintained without
labor-how much labor depends upon
the perfection of machinery and then,
woman's greater flexibility of thought
and adaptability of manipulation.
She must feel the sense of power over
things.
The girl needs as much -manUal
training as the boy; the means may
be different but the goal is the same
TO train workmen to do better work
For the well-being of her family, she
should be taught to know the ma
chinery of the home and how to care
for it, as well as the boy who is train
ed as an engineer or for some indus
trial enterprise knows his plant.
The family. the house, its fur
nishings. its management, its daily
care. its needs in mechanical appli-
ances. its ethical standards, and the
share of the income it needs to carry
1t on successfully under twentieth
century conditions. must be determ-
ined, and we must fully realize the
bearing of mechanical and economic
changes upon he material surround
ings of the home life. This prepara-
ton cannot be TOO closely interviewer
with all school work"
Education. unity and its preser-
vation while meeting the demands
for Industrial training" was the sub
ject of She address of Eugene Daven-
port. Dean of the University of nli-
nois. AT the session today.
The demand for industrial train
ing is demand coming from ninety
per cent of the people" said Dean
Davenport. They are disposed to
insist that the schools shall fit them
for their calling as they fit people of
other professions for theirs. This
demand being natural and funda-
mental will be abiding. 1t has been
met already by the colleges: it has
not been met by the secondary
schools. Two solutions are open: To
add industrial courses to existing
schools or to establish separate in
dustrial schools
The objections TO the separate
school are, briefly that it can never
be so good school; it is not well to
educate people of different profess
sions separately: TO establish sep
arte schools will injure If not destroy
existing high schools.
THE fatal defect of the separate
school is that it sacrifices education
to training and narrows the man in
stead of broadening him. The gem
eral purpose of education should be
twofold: efficiency in some profess
sion and breadth of view regarding
all other professions"

ARE ASSIGNED TO
WORK IN COLORADO
Especial to The Sentinel. ]

Denver. July S.-Of the forty-seven
young graduates of nine American
forest schools who have Just received
appointments as forest assistants in
the administrative districts of the
forest service. six have been assigned
to positions in this district. The
names of these appointees and the
schools from which they are grad
uated in forestry are as follows:
George DeS Canavarro and Percy J.
Paxton, of Yale: George A. Duthie
and George w Hendry, of Michigan;
A. c. Hamel, of Nebraska, and Ran
dolph H. Thompson. of Pennsylvania
Stale College. These men have Sc
cured their appointments as a result
Of passing the regular civil service
examination. which is the only ave
nue. of employment as forester un-
der the government.
Forest assistants are men who have
completed their preliminary training
for the profession of forestry. as the
graduates of law or medicine have
completed theirs. and are ready to en-
ter upon practical work. Until they
have gained experience, however
their positions are necessarily sub
ordinate. They are at the foot of the
ladder and must prove their fitness
to mount higher. The government
pays them S 900 a year al the start
OF the national forests the forest
assistant often acts as technical ad-
wiser to the supervisors in charge.
who are western men experienced in
all practical matters, but usually
without school training in the science
of forestry. Or they may be assigned
TO the study of some particular prob
lem which needs to be Investigated
in the interest of good forest manage
ment AS forestry means knowing
how to get the most out of any given
piece of forest land, 1t calls for stud
les and experiments, both scientific
and practical, much like those which
have to be made in the interests of
good farm management. and the for
est assistant is prepared TO do valu-
able work along this line.
There is growing interest in the
profession of forestry now, and many
young men are asking how to get into
it, and what ii promises. Clifford
Pinchot, United States Forester, in
an address TO the graduating class H.
forestry at Harvard University this
year, said:
it 1pNtl anu iuF
need more men trained in the knowl-
edge of forestry, and II offers oppor-
tunity to make Il mans life loom large
and to count for much among the
many phases of human endeavor. TO
be good forester man should
combine something of the naturalist
with a good deal of the business man.
To know how to use the forest he
must be able TO study 1t. He must
have, therefore, the power of OBJ
seryation. fondness for nature. and
the ability to penetrate her secrets.
He must be resourceful. able to stand
by himself, willing to undergo the
privations of rough life, and capable
OF commanding the respect of rough
men, who quickly recognize virility
and senuineness of character, but
will not tolerate pretense or the as
sumption of superiority. A forester
should be sound in mind and body,
and should make the fullest college
preparation for the service. This
service means free. vigorous life in
the open air. and clear, straight.
fine. wholesome manly condition of
life
