ON EARTH
CAN TALK To MARS
1T WOULD COST SIO,OOO,OOO
HOWEVER, To ARRANGE SIG
NAL STATION THAT WOULD BE
ABLE TO FLASH MESSAGES.

BOSTON. Mass, April 1s.-h mankind
cares enough about it to put about $lo'-
900 900 into it. there is no good reason
why the human race should not be able
to talk with Mars-and that so soon as
next July-according to Professor VII
liam Henry Pickering, Harvard universe
tvs celebrated astronomer. Communica-
ton with the Martians will be made pos
sible. Professor Pickering declares, by
adopting his method of flashing messages
when Mars approaches the earth to with
in $4,000. coo miles; or about 100000 miles
nearer than ever before.
Professor chickering's plan contemplates
the use of a series of mirrors presenting
a single rejecting surface turned toward
Mars and occupying more than quarter
of a mile of surface.
Surprising" he says, with SUCH
signal in operation we began series OF
flashes. cutting off the suns rays for an
instant and then throwing on the rehec-
ton again, repeating this at irregular in
tervals, forwarding. say the telegraph
code of dots and dashes. 1 have no doubt
that, providing there were intelligent peo-
pie on Mars the light would at once
attract attention and would lead even
tually to an answering sigma. If we
received such an answer it would be
comparatively easy matter to establish
a code and transmit messages"

CONSTANTINOPLE
FROM GALATEA
500 HOTEL GUESTS
FLEE FROM DEATH

SAN FRANCISCO. April 16.-Five
bodies recovered and probably eight or
ten others buried in the ruins; six injur-
ed, one fatally, and property loss of $125,-
900 are the results of an early morning
fire that destroyed the St. George hotel
a lodging house for laborers, at Howard
and Eighth streets, and eight other small
buildings.
The bodies taken to the morgue were
so charred that identification was impossi-
BILE. d. S. Cartwright, a carpenter, for
merly of Salem, Ore, was fatally burned
The hotel was a three-story frame
building and burned so rapidly that none
of the $50 guests had time to dress, and
many escaped by jumping to the roof Of
an adjoining workshop. Scores clamored
down the ladders of the firemen and the
fire escapes, and at least four jumped
to safety into the net held by the fire
fighters.
When the fire was discovered shortly
after 8 o'clock, Night Clerk Gronhk,
three or four other employees, and Police
man w. F. Kruger, ran through the
house arouslng the sleepers. In smoke
filled halls they directed the half crazed
men to the exits.
Great confusion prevailed so that it was
with great difficulty that men were able
to find hreir way through the labyrinth
of the halls, which threaded the 400 small
rooms.
Firemen and police worked heroically.
and but for their efforts the loss of life
would have been much greater. Before
the ruins had cooled, firemen began the
search for bodies. Within two hours
five charred bodies had been found and
only a small portion of the burned area
hos heen exnlored
The ST. George hotel was flimsy struc-
ture, built as an emergency lodging
house after the great fire of 1906.
Later another body was recovered,
bringing the total known dead up to six.
One body has been partially Identified
as that OF - johnson, recently from
San Antonio, Tex.
Two hundred people were in the hotel
when the fire broke out One hundred
and thirty-seven of these were regular
boarders and the rest transients. OF the
regular boarders thirty are unaccounted
for, but 1t is believed that many of them
escaped in the confusion and have neg
lected to report their safety.

TURNER'S CITIZENS DON'T
WANT THE STATE FARM

Turner county's citizens don't want the
state to buy the Greer place for a con-
Wet farm. Fifty of them have signed a
petition and presented it to the prison
commission, where it was received Satur-
day morning, begging that the state take
her white convicts elsewhere. Among
those fifty were the county commission
ers and other officials of the county.
An individual protest along the same
line from d. II. Davis, chairman of the
Turner county board of commissioners,
was already on file.
"Our county is new and small and poor
and in debt" says the petitioners in eff
feet. Put your farm here, and you re-
duce our taxable properties. Don't cut
our revenue by buying" And the petit
