FIRE DEPARTMENT
 IN |D|TAR0D

After two intellectual attempts to inyeigle the business men and prop erty holders of the city into meet ing 10 discuss the organization of some sort of fire department, the board of city trustees becoming des perate. tried tO figure out a little scheme of their own. and have in fact devised provisional chemical and bucket brigade which may be of some slight effect if called upon to exercise it's powers.
 Comment has been made before on this subject and an explanation of the psychological phenomenon which accompanies the almost com plete lethargy of public opinion. The public simply will not wake up to the need of adequate fire protection un- til a fire has caused a heavy loss. Then they will get busy.
 Although the property holders will not attend the meeting to discuss fire protection, each is enthusiastic on the subject when visited by the city trustees, and unhesitatingly en- dOrse anything that the trustees may do, But there is no money forthcoming. Besides, each property holder visited wants d hydrant right ill front of his property.
 The scheme now under consider ation by the trustees Contemplates the installation of a pipe line from the river to First street about the middle of the city, with 200 feet of pipe running along First up and down street With 400 feet of hose at the ends of these lines, it is deemed possible to get effective ac- tiOn within the radius of the nozzle.
 A boiler is available and a three inch pump, but the serious question involves the proposition of keeping up continuous steam, since it must be admitted that the apparatus would be intellectual unless the pump would be immediately available on two or three minutes notice This is con 5idered an expensive luxury, and un- der the present state of public indit- ference. probably cannot be carried through.
 The board of trustees last week appointed F. NJ. Sullivan fire chief and he has been busy organizing his chemical and bucket brigade. Five stations have been established, three on Willow street and two on First, each station having six men and captain. A code of signals is be ing devised whereby the whistle at the mill of the Clark Lumber Co. will give the alarm and by the num- Der of toots lO"ate the fire All sta tions immediately respond with some r. chemicals and buckets. whereupon bucket line will be formed from the river while the chemicals are being trained on the blaze
 It has been suggested that efforts be made to enlarge the chemical brigade, but there are not enough of them in the city at this time Money should be subscribed to pur-

THE SCHEUYEMERE
 MINING CO.

The Scheuymere Mining Company's property lies at the upper end of Cleary creek and adjoins the Tolo. yana Mining Company's ground and also that owned by the Eldorado Min ing Company
 The ground was located by J II. Brown-Scheuyeaulle, who also locat- ed the Tolovana and the Jupiter Mars. Mir. -Scheuyeaulle is president of the company, Ray-Brum- baugh is yice-president, C. S. Sar- gent is treasurer and w. w. Clarke is the secretary.
 The ore on this ground is free mill ing, and the ledge is 20 inches wide on the surface This is expected to increase with the depth, as has been the case with most of the properties in this section. The ore is very similar to that at present being mill ed by Ron Crawford. McCarty and Spaulding
 An assay has been taken of a sample of the Scheuyemere ledge which runs as follows:
 Gold =. =. .. $l750 Silver ., 09
 Total .. .. =. .. .. $17.59
 This is likely to improve with depth. and with better transportation facilities will doubtless develop in to a very good prOnertV

It seems to be the general opin ion among many arrivals from the Iditarod that the town known as Flat, at the mouth of Flat creek will eventually get the major DOT tion of the business At the pres ent moment Iditarod City has the lead, but the site is not considered a good one, and cordwood is very scarce in the ne'ghborhood. This is expected to initiate against the camp.

NEUR NSTHENIA HORROR
OF NAVAL WARFARE

Paris.-Neurasthen as one of the
horrors of modern naval warfare is
seriously discussed by the "Matn''
In describing a series of experiments
made at Toulon, with the disused bat
tleship lena as a target.
After the Russo japanese war nav
al experts discussed the possibility of
death being caused by carbonic acid
after the explosion of shells. The re-
suits obtained by bombarding the
lena show that suffocation is not one
Of the dangers to be feared when a
V arship is subjected to heavy fire,
but that the officers and men would
become neurasthenic owing to the Sc
we're concussion.
Two dogs were placed on board the
lena. They were docile and friendly
hut after the first bombardment they
were found to be morose and terrified
Later they ceased to answer to their
names and tried to conceal them
selves
This condition grew more serious
after each bombardment until at last
the dogs committed suicide by jump
ing overheard and not making any at

Cimmaron. Kan.-The ordinary or

rabbit takes more money out of Gray

John rabbit says not n word but saws
wood. He also saws kaffir corn,
maize. wheat and anything valuable.
The more valuable 1t is. the more he
saws. He has an appetite like that of
an Arctic explorer who has lived on
rubber boots for six months.
Some suggest that coyotes kill jack

MORBID WOMEN ARE
REBUKED BY COURT

Berlin.-Women who display NOR
bid interest in criminals We're sharply
rebuked in the law courts the other
day by the public prosecutor during
his speech against a quintet Of gen
.tlemen burglars" For the past
week the courtroom has been throng-
Ell with fashionably dressed women,
who move in the best circles Or So
ciety.
When the prosecutor was in the
middle of his address to the jury he
observed half a dozen women with
lorgnettes and opera glasses leveled
at the prisoners dock. "I decline to
proceed" he exclaimed TO the pre-
siding judge, until these ladies
sheath their glasses. The criminal
court is not a theater."
The judge ordered the women to de-
sist under penalty of expulsion. The
prosecutor admitted that it was un-
usual for the dock to contain five
burglars of the character of those on
trial-a former military officer. an
actor. a municipal officer, the private
secretary OF a prince, and an ex-dock-
yard uperintendent-but declared
that that did not excuse the antics to
which he objected.

ACCUSED OF NUMBERING
MOTHER BY FRIGHT

London. The unprecedented
charge of numbering his 75-year-old
mother by frightening her to death
was brought at the Birmingham AS
sizes this week against John White,
aged so. a Coventry toolgrinder.
Mrs. White, was found lying dead
in her house. on the table beside her
was a glass which proved to contain
diluted cyanide of potassium.
White was arrested and charged
with numbering his mother by poison
ing her, but when the post-morten
examination was held no trace os poi
son could be discovered The cause
of death could not be ascertained, for
Mrs. White was a healthy woman in
spite of her age, and the medical
men were driven to the conclusion
that she died from some external
cause, such as fright.
The amazing theory put forward by
the prosecution for the first time at
the trial was that White gave the di-
luted poison to his mother and that
she died from fear after smelling and
tasting it.
