new YORK CAPITOL
WRECKED BY FIRE
DAMAGE TO BUILDING EXCLUSIVE
OF RECORDS $5.ooo,ooo.
Building Erected at Cost of $27, 10000 0
Militiamen Pressed Into Service
to Fight Fire.

Albany, N. Y.-Five million dollars
probably could repair the damage done
by fire in the state capitol Wednesday,
but money can not restore the historical
records which were the pride of its state
library. After examining the exterior
walls with a transit, State Architect
Ware declared that the massive pile OF
granite was as plumb and true as ever.
The flames licked up the state library,
the court of claims, the assembly libra
ry and document rooms, most OF the
offices of the excise and the quarters
Of the senate finance committee and
water and smoke took up the work
that the flames laid down and the dam
age from this cause extends to every
part Of the building.
The state library, containing 100000
volumes, among them the most valu-
able genealogical works in the United
States, together with relics, priceless
documents, some of them dating back to
l776 and ~irreplacable.
The capitol, a gigantic structure Of
white granite with red capped towers,
which cost s27, ooO, 900, stands perched
upon the highest of the several hills
upon which the city of Albany is built
It is 800 feet north and south by 40C
feet east and west and covers three
acres.
The first stone in the foundation was
laid July 2, 1869. 1t was first occupied
by the legislature on Jan. z, 1879.
Writers upon architecture say that thu
white building with its towers reminds
them of the famous Tai Mahal in In
dia. Others call it a superb reflection
of French architecture.
Militia men were pressed into servic
to remove the records, relics and flag
from the adjutant-general's office AM
in policing the fire lines.

CITY IS BLAMED
FOR FIRE DEATHS
MASS MEETING IN NEW YORK
ADOPTS RESOLUTION.
Meeting Receives With Applause Con-
domination of City Government by
Prof. Seligman.

New York. - Administrative ineffi-
cheney" as the direct cause of the Tri-
angle Shirtwaist Company fire, where the
lives of more than 14O women, girls and
men were sacrificed, was charged at the
citizens mass meeting by Prof. E. A. +.
Seligman, of Columbia University. The
tremendous throng which filled every
seat in the house interrupted this fear
less statement with braves and cheers
and continued applause. When Comp
troller William A. Prendergast, a few
minutes later, spoke in support OF Prof.
Seligman's remarks, there was a second
demonstration.
This public meeting, which was called
by a citizens committee, at the instiga-
ton of the Women's Trade Union League
and Miss Anne Morgan, daughter OF }.
p. Morgan, was for the announced pur-
pose of devising future security Tor
workers and to prevent similar disasters.
With almost unanimous accord the
speakers evaded any attempt to place
the direct responsibility, but when Prof.
Seligman suddenly branched out in his
discussion of the economic side of the
matter to declare that this city admin
~istration sis now weltering in chaos
and a moment later termed the condi-
ton that of administrative impotence"
| the large audience was aroused to a re-
markable demonstration OF approval
These were the first statements that had
brought, them out of their seats.

its own liquor laws, said Justice Harlan
of the federal supreme court, in sub
stance, when he handed down an opinion
in which the court declined to enjoin all
the railroads entering the portion of the
state which formerly was Indian Ter
ritory from introducing or conveying in
toxicating liquors i'll any form into that
section.
The state had asked the injunction on
til, ground that congress had required
that an anti-liquor provision affecting
the old Indian Territory be incorporated
in the Oklahoma constitution, which was
done.
Justice Harlan held that relief under
the provision must be produced in the
state courts.

Boston.-The fact that thirty churches

that several have been permanently
closed and turned into moving picture

sponsible for the small congregations,
at least affect the supply of the pulpits.

THE ROUNDUP.
(Pilot Rock Record.O

The Roundup which takes place
in Pendleton on September IA. 10 and
16 is destined to prove red-letter day
in the history of Eastern Oregon. on
the very best of authority it is stated
that every young man and woman be-
tween Pilot Rock and the John Day
RIVER is making preparations to attend
the Roundup, some saying that they
will be there if they have to sell
horse. There is no use in trying to
oeny the interest that is manifest and
as the time draws near for the three
days of extravaganza and perilous
stunts the more intense the interest
Only q few weeks ago a Pilot Rock
boy not yet 13 years of age, narrowly
escaped losing his life in an effort to
bulldog a young steer in his faith
Crs pasture In an effort to make a
speedy dismount he was thrown to
the ground, calf and pony passing
over his hody, but he was not yet sat
isfed. In his second attempt to imi-
tate Vernon, he fell over the calf's
neck ana was jumped upon without
serious injury.
Such incidents are by no means iso-
lated. one cowboy in Grant county,
spends nearly all his spare time in
becoming expert with a rope. and is
said to be able on this account, to
have ths pick of the good-looking
girls of the county.

Der of daring riders be found among

element of danger connected with
the exploits of the performers that
makes the Roundup a drawing card
and yet what appears to the layman
to be fraught with danger, is only
child's play to the experienced cow
