Escape Into Mountains, Following
Example of Outlaw Tracey

Spokane.-Armed with a high-power
repeating rifle and plenty of ammuni-
ton, a dead shot and determined to
kill rather than be captured, VIM. Byrd,
desperate murderer, is at large near
the Idaho line and being pursued by
deputy sheriffs, police officers and
posses, more than a score of men.
The murderer, William Byrd, June 8
near Spokane shot and killed John
Mansker, aged 80, and G. II. Whipple,
aged 2s, both of Spokane, and fatally
wounded c. w. Meisner, justice of the
peace of Dishman, who joined in the
pursuit.
How 1t Happened.
Stepping from a Vera car, which
stopped at Dishman, which he had
boarded at Spokane Byrd walked a few
feet toward building under course of
construction, raised his rifle and fred
two shots, both of which struck, at G..
II. Whipple, who was working on the
front of the structure. The wounds
resulted in Whipple's death about an
hour later.
Byrd Immediately turned his rife to-
ward John Mansker, the contractor
who was working on the inside of the
building, and fred three shots, all
taking effect and killing Mansker i'm
mediately.
The murderer then walked nonchal-
antly toward the east without showing
any undue hurry.
Jealousy of Whipple and unrecip
rocated affection for Mrs. Whipple is
believed to have been the cause fol
the first shooting. Byrd is supposed
to have harbored a grudge against
Mansker because the contractor re

Pancoast Mine Horror.

''The fire in the Pancoast mine
killed seventy-four miners, left forty
five widows and 1877 dependent orphans
This fire is known to have started in
an underground room presumably from
some oil-soaked waste. The fire was not
thought serious until it had been burn
ing two hours. This delay was, in
large measure, responsible for the great
loss of life.

Other Mine Fires.

"Besides the loss of life, fires have
cost much in money. At Deadwood,
S. D., $1,000,000 has been spent in fight
ing a fire in metal mine. Today fires
are raging in coal and metal mines in
various parts of the country. Some of
them have gotten beyond control, and
have been burning for many years, de-
vouring hundreds of thousands of tons
of coal and miles of mine galleries.
One mine fire near Carbonate, Pa, has
burned out such a vast area of anthra-
cite coal in the last ten years as to re-
suit in a subsistence of the surface and
destruction of surface property. Near
Summit Hill, Pa, fire which has been
burning fifty-one years is estimated to
have destroyed $25,OOO,OOO worth of
COAL Near Jobs, Ohio, a tract of coal
valued at several million dollars has
been burning since 1884. In some of
the deeper metal mines at Butte, Mont,
fires have bene burning in the old mine
timbers since 1889. In the Comstock
vein in Nevada, thousands of feet of
tunnels which had been opened and tim
bered at great expense are being burned
out.

Should Analyze Gases.

Chemistry, through the quick analy-
sis of gases at frequent intervals in the
neighborhood of the fire, has proven a
most useful adjunct in fighting fires.
1t seems almost unnecessary to call
attention to the necessity of providing
at each mine ample storage of water
properly conveyed in protected pipes
to possible danger points, the desira-
bility of using larger amounts of fire.
proof material in place of wooden mine
timbering or wooden doors, the proper
disposal of waste, fre-proof man-ways
and air shafts and the use of fre-proof
material as far as possible in all sur
face structures within so to 100 feet of
the main opening of the mine.'

re-Fighting Appliances.

"The mining engineers of the Blu
reau of Mines have made a careful
study of fires in mines, and have
reached the conclusion that the intro
duction of comparatively inexpensive
fre-fghting appliances, the adoption of
proper regulations and the institution
of a reasonable system of fire drills
may minimize fires and confne others
to a brief period of time with little
damage to life and property. The en-
gineers of this bureau have had much
success in combating mine fires through
the use of the oxygen helmet. This is
an apparatus that entirely protects the
head, and through which air is fur
nished artifcially, thus enabling the
wearer to explore the vicinity of a fire
under conditions of smoke and gas that
would render his approach otherwise
impossible. By the use of such an ap-
paratus a number of fires have been
promptly extinguished which would
doubtless have spread and perhaps ex-
tended beyond control.

District To Take Care
Of Soldiers Family

Felipe Guasp. Porto RIcan soldier in
the United States Army, stationed at
Fort Myer, Va, appeared in Juvenile
Court last evening with his wife and
three children and asked that the Dis
trict take charge of them :or him until
he was able to buy his release from the
army. He said that the army paid but
SIS a month to privates, and this was
not enough to take care OF them. The
request was granted by Judge CaIlan,
and the children will be turned over to
the Board of Charities until the father
can raise $125 to buy his way out of
the army.
Guasp came to this country Ave years

the cost of living is very low in his
country, he figured that he could easily
support wife on the money paid en-
listed men. He tried and, failed.
