Firemen Responded Immediately and
Fought HeroieaIIy to Save Plant and
5uildins-Paper 10 Being Issued

badly burned about the face and body
and severely lacerated in being taken
through one OF the basement windows.
Dullum were painfully burned about
the face and neck, but their injuries
are not serious.
The fremen did heroic work IN risk
ing their lives to prevent further
spreading OF the blaze. They were at
the scene OF the fire within fifteen
seconds after the first appearance OF
the blaze and worked like Trojans.
The fire started at the linotype ma
chine which is lighted by gasoline
burner communicating with gasoline
tank The fire in some way reached
the tank, and the blaze spread rapidly.
Albert Lowe. circulation manager Of
The Minot Optic, who was working at
the books in the Office, reported the
fire and within fifteen seconds the fire
boys were in the building.
The gasoline tank did not catch fire
until after the fire boys appeared
When this burned, the room quickly
filled with smoke and flames. The air
became so heated and the smoke SO
dense. that the boys fell nearly ex-
hausted, and not being acquainted with
the rear exit to the basement tried to

windows being broken and this made
it hard for the boys to be pulled out.

FREE LUMBER
No SAVING
So Says Representative Hamer
Of Idaho
Big Party Scrap Expected
Next Thursday

Washington, March Sl.-Devoting
his remarks largely to a discussion OF
the lead and wool schedules Repre-
sentative Hamer of Idaho, in the house
today discussed the tariff from the
western standpoint. He deplored the
proposed provision to permit the entry
from the Philippines free of duty Of
100000 tons OF sugar as establishing a
dangerous precedent and declared that
the proposed tariff reform may mean
free lumber, which, he said would be
a concession to a colt Of so-called
political philosophers but would not
mean a dollar in reduction to the con-
sumner. In advocacy of continued pro-
lection for lead, Mr. Hamer said:
'The most formidable competitor we
have in the production of lead. be-
cause of accessibility, including cheap
ness of transportation to our markets
the abundance and low cost of labor
and the unusual large values of sill
yer contents in the ore In Mexico.
do not think it an exaggeration to say
that Mexica has within her borders
the richest lead mines now operating
in the world.
"At the present time the lead mines
OF that country, owned and controlled
by single American corporation. are
a production of 10000 tons per annum
in excess OF our own"
That the cost OF production in the
west is steadily increasing each year
and that it would seem absurd to
contend that lead mining can be pro-
fitably prosecuted in this country
without the aid Of protective tariff.
were contended by Mr.. Hamer. He
argued that the claim that the so
called lead trust fixes the price of
lead was untrue; that the American
Smelling and Refining company re-
fined only so per cent OF the total
production OF the lead in the United
States.
Asserting taht the cost OF raising
sheep has increased to sucn an ex-
tent that the present duty on wool
has been completely absorbed. Mr..
Hamer said that the protection afford
ed by the present tariff IL more than
offset.
Mr. Hamer said that the CRY OF a
trust had been raised also bv the
advocates or free lumber. He asserted
that IL he believed in the existence Of
lumber trust or that the feduc-
ton OF the present tariff in lumber
would result in lowering the price to
the consumer he would vote to put
lumber on the free list.

SAYS NO MORE HARD
WORK FOR HARTMAN

Vienna, Austria.-Edward II. Harri-
man, the American railroad wizard,
must not work again so hard or so
continuously as he has done in the
past. This is the edict Of DR.. Adolf
Struempell, the noted Vienna speci-
alist, who has diagnosed Harriman's
ailment as incipient paralysis. In OBJ
edience to this edict is Harriman's
only safety.
For the present, declares Professor
Struempell, Mr.. Hartman must have
complete quiet. To this end his meals
are now being served in his room,
and he only emerges therefrom once
a day to take the mild exercise which
has been prescribed as a part of his
course of treatment.
The course of treatment through
which Mr.. Hartman is now being put
is intended to cure his nervous trouble
and get him into as good physical con-
dition as possible, after which an en-,
tirely new course of treatment will be
inaugurated in an effort to relieve
the paralysis which Is affecting his
limbs. This cannot be cured, Mr.
Hartman has been informed, but its
acute symptoms can be relieved ana
its progress stayed.
Mrs. Hartman is remaining con-
stantly by his side, and her ministra-
tions form an important feature of
the course of treatment being given
him.

effect the long talked Of project OF
joining independent telephone COM
panes into big connected system
which will be able to give a long dis

which at a cost Of about one million
dollars will construct and operate a

to the Ohio state line via Pttsburg.
Another concern, also called the

Doubt Adam and Eve.

New York, July because they
have expressed doubts of the stories
of Adam and Eve. Jonah and the
l'whale and some of the miracles mar
rated in the bible, three young Pres
byteran theological students will
probably have hard shedding when
they appear today before the New
York Presbytery for ordination as
ministers.
Although the Presbytery has al
ready granted licenses to the doubt
ers, the conservative ministers are
much dissatisfied with that action
and will probably attempt TO reopen
the matter at today's ordination cere-
monies The applicants will be ques-
toned at great length as to their
theological views by men opposed to
them, and if the replies are not sat
isfactory and the young men stand
by their heretical opinions, long and
bitter fight may result.
