FIRE DEMON.
IS AGAIN
FELT
Scheble Building on Corner
of Mission and Orondo
Badly Scorched.

The building located at the corner
of Orondo and Mission, owned by F.
NJ Scheble and Floyd Lane, was
burned last night. Although not en-
tirely destroyed, the damage done
will prevent repairs or rebuilding.
The store was occupied by the We
natchee Plumbing company, of which
Joe Edwards is proprietor and man
ager. He carried insurance amount
ing to $4,000 on the stock, whose
total value was about $4,000. The
goods were damaged to the extent of
$1,000 to $1,000, and he will prob
ably be reimbursed to the amount of
the actual loss.
Frank NJ Scheble is taking a va
cation this week at Lake Wenatchee.
Inquiries indicate that no insurance
was carried. He made the remark
recently to an insurance man that
the loss would not amount to much
even if the building should burn. The
rates were almost prohibitive.
An alarm was turned in at 10 p.
M, the fire being discovered by Sam
Campbell at the fire station. Flames
being already far advanced, the de-
partment performed very creditable
work by securing control in a few
minutes. A large part of the stock
was recovered and saved.
The fire started in the rear, where
little lean-to shed was used for a
stable during the day. The stock
room, containing much valuable por-
celain ware, was the first to go. BY
hard work the department prevented
extensive damage to the stock in the
workshop and office.
During the early part of the con-
flagration an explosion occurred in
the stock room. 1t was probably one
of the firepots filled with gasoline
In the workshop several cans of oil,
one of them containing gasoline.
were unframed, although the flames
were playing all around them.
Oldest Building in City.
This is one of the oldest buildings
in the city, constructed in 1892 and
used by the Scheble-Lane Hardware
company for many years. The opin-
ion prevails that the fire will hasten
the construction of modern build
ing on this valuable corner The
owners have been planning for some
time to remove the shack AMI erect
a creditable edifice thereon.
Sparks from the flames were car
ried over the dwellings to the south
and several fires started on the roofs.
BY the continual use of garden hose
and vigilance, the fire was prevented
from developing into a general and
disastrous conflagration.

LIBRARY NOTES.

We are indebted to the state library
for reports of the state veterinarian,
state entomologist and the state board
of forestry of Indiana. The first report
contains long discussion on tuberbu-
losis among cattle and will therefore be
interesting to farmers and stock rails
ers The report of the state entomoI-
ogist is valuable for its articles on
plant diseases and insect pests and
methods for their eradication. The re-
port is we'll illustrated and gives re-
suits of the Investigations made along
this line. The forestry report will be
helpful in the study of conservation of
natural resources.
The following magazine articles will
help to pass the summer afternoons:

The following are some of the rea-

industrial center
Tangent 10 a score OF belt and

1t is only a matter of time until Wolf
lakes advantages are realized. Chi
cago is growing too rapidly and it will
naturally have to come to 1t. Gary's
harbor is more suited for steel and ore
traffic and it will have to look to Wolf
lake or Dune park to handle it's other
lake traffic. z
If the prediction is made that Wolf
lake will some day be the site of the
greatest harbor Oh Lake Michigan it
will turn out to be true. The Calumet
region and all OF Chicago will some day
depend upon 1t. 1t is the natural gate
way to the northwest and when it does
become Indiana will have the dis
tinction of having the biggest harbor,
on the great lakes.

Nav Not Make Trip.

Attorney H. E. Corbett. president of
the Dalton Coal company, $40 Broad
way, Gary. may postpone his western
trip which he intended to leave on this
week. 1t was the intention of the coal
magnate to go for a months rest on
his ranch which he purchased several
years ago. However, pressing bust
ness coupled with the fact that Mr..
Corbett wants to look after his politi-
cal affairs. will probably detain him.
Mr.. Corbett is a candidate for the

tor from Lake and Porter counties, and
he wants to be on hand to watch any

Henry NJ. McGregor was quite bad
~, though not seriously. injured at
the H. l.. Brown quarry yesterday

heavy timber which was lying across
a rock. one end resting on the ground.
A heavy stone was being swung by
a derrick when the "shackles" gave
way. The force of the huge rock fall
ing on the elevated end of the timber
threw Mr.. McGregor about Is feet in
the air. When he came down he fell
into the pile of rocks below, receiving
al severe shock and badly bruising his
spine. DR.. James D. Nutting, Jr.,
was called and after examination de-
clded that no bones We're broken. The
young man was brought to his home
