HAD been closed and fastened, and
tnat two horses and number CT
hogs and chickens were locked in
side.
Mr.. White last evening left two
l.cr.es i'll corral adjoining the
5,rn, with the door open that the
animals might go back and forth at
will This door was found to be fast
ened shut as we'll as all the others.
There is not the slightest doubt
that the fire was OF incendiary ORR
50. and that the liends deliberately
drove The horses inside lie barn to
be burned to death. before they
touched the match
Just week aeo, two hay corral,
several hundred yards apart, were
simultaneously set on fire at mid

FIRE DESTROYS
 INSANE ASYLUM

Especial to the Journal. Miner).
 PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. 5.--Of the 37s inmates in the territorial asylum for the insane, 160 are housed in the administration building and its two wings tonight, having had a narrow but safe escape from death by fire which broke out in the central part of the main building between Q and 10 o'clock this morning. The fire is supposed to have resulted from the carelessness of trusty inmate engaged in making repairs.
 The excellent discipline of the in. stitution was demonstrated in the work of the attendants who got every patient to sssplaee of safety, inelud. ing those of the violent ward which was in the east wing, and which wing, together with the central or administration building, was totally destroyed except for charrcd walls. The west wing suffered some damage especially to the roof. There was no damage of the new hospital or either of the two new ward buildings at either end of the old structure.
 Immediately on the removal of the patients all attention was turned Co fighting the fire with the asylum apparatus which, however, was not equal to such an emergency. Calls for help were immediately sent to Phoenix and Tempe. Chief Sullivan, of the Phoenix fire department, sent an engine and hose and Tempe sent a combination chemical and hose cart, but the latter did not arrive until too late to be of much service. As the asylum plugs were too small for the Phoenix hose the engine at once tapped an artificial lake on the premises and though arriving late did much to get the fire under con. trol.
 During the fire two of the at tendants, Williams and Cate. were overcome by their exertions and the heat and for time were in serious conditions but are restored this even. ing. The inmates behaved them. selves better than might have been expected under the circumstances Trustics about their allotted jobs, q ease in point being one fellow cutting grass, refused to be diverted and kept at their tasks as usual unti night.
 Governor Sloan went to the asylum at once in an automobile and as soor as he learned the conditions ordered out company of the Nationa Guard in Phoenix to assist in guard ing the patients.

 Closely related to the question of kind of power employed is that of fuel used in generating this power, or otherwise as material in the man. ufacturing processes. All industries in 1909 used 7s,56l tons of anthracite coal; 60,256 tons of bituminous coal l; f63,233 tons of coke; l4,55s cords of wood; 6o,594 barrels of oil, including gasoline; l,s65.000 feet of gas; and 20 tons of other fuel.

MINING ACTIVE IN
 HAsSAYAMPA DISTRICT
(rrom Wednesdays Daily.)

After several days at his Billy Boy and Christmas mines in the Hassay. ampa district. Ed. Block yesterday stated that there is prevailing at several camps decidedly buoyant feeling, which is supported by the good showing recently made in de- velopment. So favorable are condi. tions that the attention of mining men has been attracted to the dist rict, with the result that negotiations for the purchase of several properties are under way. Mir. Block continues work on his two mines, and is sat. isficd with what has been accom- plished, stating That fine ore bodies are blocked ont in the Billy Boy, while in Tunnel No. 2 of the Christ mas, which has been driven 100 feet, . continuous body of good gold ore is exposed.
 He also visited the Birch and Me. Nnlty property that adjoins the Christmas on the west, and speaks highly of development there. The tunnel has reached l0s feet on the ledge and the showing is among the best in that section for the amount of work performed.
 The Climax mine, also situated in the same belt, is under operation snd the mill was started q few days ago. This property is operated by a small crew, and the results are re marksble. when the amount of bul | lion produced is taken into consider ation.
 MT. Block states, also that there is considerable discussion among mine owners in that field for tho
 immediate extension of road fseili ties. The folly of repairing the old county road to Copper Basin ever, year sitter the summer rains is waste of public money, when a higi water line can be built that will b'
 on a permanent basis, and whiel
 when introduced, will not require
 cent of expense tc maintain.

Power and Fua

The increase in primary power from 1904 to 1909 was in power gem erated by steam engines, both water
 power and power generated by gas engines showing a decrease. How ever, A slight increase in the number of gas engines is shown, there being 3l such engines in 1909, as compared with es in 1904, although the total horsepower developed by them de- creased from 1892 m 1904 to l,2so in 1909. The figures also show that the practice of renting power is on the increase, Q per cent of the total power being rented in 1909, as com pared with l.s per cent in 1904 and o4 per cent in 1899.

Who does not know the value of
sage and sulphur for keeping the

phur is natural element of hair,
and a deficiency of it in the hair is
held by many scalp specialists to be
connected with loss of color and vi

there is no better remedy for hair
and scalp troubles, especially prema-
ture grayness, than sage and sulphur

called Wyeth's Sage and SULPHUR
