Chicago, Ill.-Search of the wreck.
age for the remaining bodies of those
who lost their lives in the Fish Furni-
ture company fire here, was discon.
tinued from danger of tottering walls,
but not until IL dead had been recov-
cred and II of these identified.
While earlier estimates placed the
number of victims trapped on the
fourth and fifth floors of the builulns
as being 20, later and more thorough
investigation indicates there were but
16 Two of these escaped with their
lives, which leaves but two more I'M
accounted for.
The search was abandoned for the
day on the report of Chief Building
Inspector Short, who declared that
three of the walls were in a danger
GUS condition. A coroner's jury which
was empaneled this afternoon viewed
the bodies at the morgue, but the in
quest was postponed until April z.
Lee Stocked, clerk of the Fish
company, who is said to have started
the fire, told his story to Fire Attor-
ney Frank Hogan. Although Stockei,
who is but 20 years of age, is ad-
mittedly more unfortunate than Gull
pable, Attorney Hogan says he will
bring some charge against the young
man to insure his attendance at the
inquest.
Stoeckel was brought before the fire

appeared heart broken and told his
story with difficulty

said, "Mr. Mitchell, who is member
of the firm, gave me three pocket CT

fourth floor and fill them with ben

ANY WOMAN CAN HAVE BEAUTl.
Full HAIR.
(From French Beauty Monthly

(From French Beauty Monthly
mo woman should use water upon
her hair oftener than once in two
months" says M. Fourier, the noted
French scientist. DRY powder only
should be used. Moisture causes the
hair to lose its color and in time be-
come thin.
ANY woman desiring abundant, lus-
trous hair should use dry shampoo
every two or three days. MIX Tour
ounces of powdered orris root with tour
ounces of therox. Sprinkle about a
tablespoonful of this mixture upon the
head; then brush the powder thor.
oughly through the hair. This Will
keep it light and fluffy, and beautifully
lustrous. You will soon see new hair
starting to grow. This treatment is the
only thing that am sure will produce
a growth of hair.
while plain orris root is used as
dry shampoo by many women, still, no
such results can be obtained as by
using the formula | have given"

Saving became a passion with the
man and the woman. No privation
was too great, if so be by 1t they
might add to their accumulations.
And they labored jointly. The wom-
ans sacrifice was in every respect
equal to that of the man.
But when they had amassed $4,000
the man, because he had the power,
took the money and purchased with
it, not the automobile which he had
led his faithful wife to expect, but a
home.
"Brute!" she cried, and when next
a mob of suffragettes came that way
she joined them. Who could blame
her?-Puck

The Riuht Spirit.

Apropos of Valentine day a passen-
ger on the Bermudian said:
Mark Twain once told us, In a little
Valentine day speech on this boat, of
an Irish wooer who had the right val
entine spirit. Acceptance or rejection
he could take with equal grace.
"'Will we be my valentines? he said
on February IA to the girl he loved.
"'No,' she replied. I am another's.'
He heaved a sigh and said:
Shure, thin, darlin', l wish we
was twins, so that l could have at

Undesirable Acquisition.

A scientist who lost his pet dog
put little notice in the paper head
ed, Warning" which charitably de-
scribed the animal as having
"strayed," and added:
1T is of no value, not even to the
owner; but, having been experimental
upon for scientific purposes with
many virulent poisons, lick from its
tongue-and it is very affectionate-
would probably prove fatal"
The dog came back next day.

! The fact that Canada has decided
to make a start toward building a
navy is not pleasing to all Cana
dams. On Friday a delegation rep
resenting several thousand Canadian
,workmen asked Premier Laurier and
the government mot to create the
spirit of militarfsm throughout Can
ada" They came on behalf of the
Canadian Trades congress, and their
mission did credit to the body that
sent them.
Premier Laurier was not able to
give much comfort to the delegation.
He said that the time has not come
for the world to see the futility of
expenditures upon armies and ma
vies, and that it is impossible yet
to to without soldiers and blue
jackets as without policemen 1t was
decided as long ago as 1907, he went
on to say, that Canada should do
something in the way of assistance
to the scheme of defense of the mo-
therland and the empire.
1t will be noticed how much en-
phasis the premier lays upon the
idea Of assistance to the British en-
pire. 1t is the empire, rather than
purely Canadian needs, that is call
ing the Canadian navy into being.
For that we can be thankful to the
good sense that exists upon this con-
tinent. If the Canadians wish to
build navy for imperial purposes
that is their aaffir. 1t is to be ex-
pected that the navy will be a credit
able one, and it should not be 80 big
as to be a burden. There is no in
dication, in fact, that burdensome
navy Is planned.-Buffalo Express.

Spokane to New York in DO Days.
Spokane, Feb. 1S.-"Spokane to
New York in 90 days" is the novel
shibboleth which has been adopted
by E. E. Arnold, Loon Lake, Wash,
latest aspirant for honors in the Ed
ward Payson Weston spotlight.
Arnold has been endeavoring for
several days to interest Spokane capt.
tai in his enterprise, declaring that
he is the only saccharine-coated pas
try in the pedestrian line and can
make New York in the allotted time
with hours to spare.
His course will lie directly east
from Spokane via the Northern Pa
cific tracks through Billings, Mont,
Bismarck and Fargo, N. D., and on
through to the Twin Cities. From
there the course Is clear to Chicago
and on to New York.
Arnold has not announced a date
for weighing anchor, but will I'M
doubtedly get under way within the
next fortnight or two. In the mean
item he is beating the taxicab trust
by hiking over fields and fences in
strenuous preparation.
The distance from Spokane to Har-
lem is 5000 miles, in round figures.
A successful 90-days trip would en-
tail approximately "a miles per day.

thieves and other robbers. They have
been kept busy with different kind
of law yiolators. Their duties, instead
Of being confined to the ranch terri
tory and along the Mexican border,
now take them into the larger towns
and more populouS counties, where
they seek to enforce the law against
gambling and other evils. They are
especially vigorous in breaking up
dives and preventing the sale of liquor
in local option districts.
Out of the hundreds of extraOrdi-
nary deeds of bravery one will give
some idea of what the Texas rangers
have been doing In smoothing the
paths in the southwest for advancing
civilization. In July. 1870. the rangers
were making the last of many cam
paigns against the Comanches. Qua
nah was the new chief then and
great warrior. He was living few
years ago, when he described the last
battle in 1870 with the rangers as fol
lows:
Heap bunch of rangers rode out
on the prairie. tied their horses to
the saddlehorns by their brides and
opened fire on Us. Ny men fell fast.
We fred and tried to kill horses. Then
the rangers lay behind their dead
horses and killed us like grass. We
tried to rush them. Twice we tried
and failed. After mach time they did
not fire so fast. We thought powder
and bullets all gone. Then. as we
were going to charge again, they all
stood up They took off their hats and
yelled. We were much locoed (de-
ceivedl At last we charged, but you
rangers don't fight like palefaces, but
like devils. We killed thirtyfOur, but
you killed us like grass. Comanches
had heap more men in that battle than
rangers had"
OF the latter day rangers none has
a greater reputation for bravery than
Captain John r. Hughes. who entered
the service twenty-five years ago and
is in command of one of the four COM
panies which compose the state force.
In 1884 Captain Hughes made a
chase of more than 5000 miles after
a band of horse thieves. He took up
the trail near Austin and followed it
out through west Texas. up into the
Panhandle and down through New
Mexico to a point near Silver City.
where he captured two OF the outlaws
/ and placed them In jail.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.
FEDERAL INCORPORATION.

Secretary Nage1 of the department
of commerce and labor has made a
clear and forceful argument for the
enactment of a federal incorporation
law. His point that in order to ex-
tend and maintain our international
commerce, a law of this kind is es-
sential, is we'll taken. A diversity
of laws enacted by different states
in an attempt to control corporate
enterprises doing an interstate bust
ness is an anachronism. A central
authority clothed with powers of con-
troll and supervision is the only logi-
cal way by which commercial enter
prise can be carried on smoothly
and without conflict. State jealousy
and state advantage will always
operate to hamper industry.
If the power vests in the national
authority to regulate interstate COM
merce and incidentally corporations,
there is no good reason why it should
not be used. Capitalization of au-
thority may become oppressive, but
at the same time it may be bene-
ficent. It depends on the character
of men who exercise the authority
But past experience has shown
that the standards of official integ-
rity in the general government have
been as high if not higher than in
the state governments. Corporate
influence may make itself felt in ma
tional concerns, but it has made it
self felt in state concerns also. The
logic of events in our dual system of
government has tended to confirm
the view that the only wise course IS
to let the nation control matters of
general concern and leave matters
of local concern to the state au-
thorities.
II the control of corporations is
vested in the general government,
the people will insist that their in
terests be protected and in order to
insure this greater care will be ex-
ercised in tho choice of representa-
tives in our national congress. The
incorporation bill recommended by |
the president should be enacted into
law.

1t is noteworthy that the recent
utterances of Speaker Cannon have
been tempered with moderation. He
does not speak in a defiant tone and
with his customary harshness. The
public DO not entertain vindictive
feelings against Uncle Joe person
ally, but they do not like the sys-
TEN of which he is necessarily the
leading exponent. 1t is difficult for
a man Of the speakers age with
such pronounced convictions to take
up new ideas or to readjust his way
of thinking. But public opinion has
demanded that the house of repre-
sentatives be reorganized so as to
be more responsive to the public
wishes and Mr.. Cannon will have to
gracefully yield.
