London, July pa bill, modify
ing the declaration of religion re-
quired by the king upon his acces-

jects of his majesty, but it also makes
it acceptable to the non-conformists
by striking out the proposed state
ment of adherence to the established

LIGHTNING STRIKES

Denver. July 29.-The Western
Chemical Works was struck by light
ming last night and damage to the
amount of $1,000 was done by fire
Prompt action on the part of the
superintendent saved half a dozen
lives during the progress of the fire.
Several of the employees had the two
inch hose ready to turn a stream in
the rear room where the electrical
generator was working, when the su-
perintendent knocked it from their
hands. Had the stream been turned
in there it is probable that the men
handling the hose would have been
electrocuted on the spot.
