MISSOURI CAPITOL BURNS.
Lightning Strikes CupoIa and Starts a
Blaze with Which Fireman Cannot Cope.

jefferson City, Feb. 5.-The
Missouri Capitol building was de.
stroyed by fire tonight. Many of
the records of the Governors and
other State officers are lost.
Lightning, which struck the Gu
pola of the dome shortly after 7
o'clock, spread the flames to the
roof of the House of Representa-.
tives on the north side of the
structure and in less than half an
hour it was apparent that the
building was doomed
Because of the inadequacy of
the water pressure the fire could
not be reached and no aid could
be given for some time by the
local fire company.
Governor Hardley directed the
fight against the flame, which be-
cause of the building rapidly
gained great Roadway. rhe peni-

lcally, scaling walls and taking

The local military company was
cailed out and formed a Gordon
around the building, driving spec.
tators from dangerous positions
and removing records from the
different State departments.
The fire soon spread to the ROOT
of the Senate chamber, where
the efforts of the fireman proved
unavailing to check it.
The records of the House OF
Representatives were destroyed.
while those of the Senate were
saved. In the State treasurer'a

The Capitol was erected il
1888 at a cost of $780, 900, and in
1887 remodeled at a cost Of s25,.

the root was covered with much
iunamable material.
The Legislature will determine
tomorrow whether to continue its
session here or elsewhere in the
State. The loss of the House rec.
ords practically necessitates the
work of the present session being
done over.

POSTAL BANKS POPULAR.
Deposits First Month Greater Than Most
Successful Year Of The British System,

Washington, Feb. 5.-"lf the
nee 7ssary appropriations we're
available, 1 would Establish pos
tai savings banks tomorrow lin
five hundred additional cities aud
TWINS of the United States"
This statement was made to-
night by Postmaster General
Hitchcock in view of rep 1rts thus
far received concerning the first
months operation of the postal
savings system. The reports are
most gratifying to Mr.. Hitchcock
and to the other officers of the
postal savings service. They are
regarded as demonstrating that
the new system already has passed
the experimental stage.
The certificate of deposit plan,
which is an innovation in the
transaction Of postal savings
business, is shown to be admira.
bly, adapted to its purpose. It is
found to be readily understood by
depositors and easily handled by
postmasters.
The total deposits in the forty
eight existing postal banks foF
the month of January will amount
to approximately $50 00O. This
is an average of about $1,000.
Assuming that this average will
be maintained throughout the
year, the aggregate of annual de-
posits will be close to three-quar-
ters of a million dollars. This,
too, Will be the situation in the
small offices, where the banks now
are in operation. It is assumed
by tho officers Of the system that
the deposits will be correspond
ingly greater whan the service ls
extended to first class offices.
The average amount of deposits
being received at each Office as in
dicated by the January returns,
ls larger than the corresponding
average fer the British system of
postal savings repositories III
1908, the most successful year il
the history of that system.
A large majority of the deposi-
tors in January were foreign born
Americans, many of whom have
been / n the habit of sending their
savings to their native countries
for deposit. All important re-
suit of the system, therefore, is to
diminish the outflow from the
United States of such funds.
In view of the successful opera
ton of the new system during Its
first mouth. Postmaster General
Hitchcock has recommended to
the Congress the appropriation of
ST OOO, 900 to be Immediately
available for the extension Of the
postal savings sYssem to a con.
siderable numb9r Of postoffices,
the patrons Of which are clumor~
ing for the new banks.

THE WORLD is GROWING Better.
Speaker-E Elect Delivers an Address Of
Hope and Courage" to Yousg Men.

Springfield, Mass, Feb. 5.-De-
claring that he is an o%ptimist, and
that he believes the world is
growing better, Representative
Champ Clark Of Missouri, Speak
er-elect of the next House of
Representatives st Washington,
delivered a message of "'hope and
courage" in an address today be-
fore the Young Mems Christian
Association here.
If the world were not growing
better Mr.. CLARK said, then the
school system, about which
America boasts and which costs 80
much, was Oil ignominious failure
and all religion was a failure, and
he did not believe either to te
true. Why SO many good people
believe the world is growing worse
was explained by Mr.. Clark as a
matter of evolution of communl-
cation that nowadays any place
on earth is in reach Of the .tele.
phone and telegraI b and a man
may do a thousand good things
aud lever get his name in the
newspapers, but the first time he
does a bad thing ''in it goes"
Mr.. Clark said that when he
went to Missouri thirty-five years
ago, the average number of homl.
cides III Pike county was between
four and five a year and now they
average less than one. That, he
believed, was measureably true
of every other county in the coun-
try.
Up to ten or fifteen years age,
a prize fight could be pulled off
in any State with absolute i'm
puoity. Now there is not q
single State in which 1t is not a
~penitentiary offence. Up to
comparatively recent years, a
duel could be fought in any State
without any fear of serious ccn
sequences. Now there is no State
in which it is not u felony.
In conclusion Mr.. Clark said:
Thanks be to Almighty God,
wars are becoming rare and rar-
er. One thing which the flying
machine will accomplish will be
to put an end forever and forever
to all wars. Lotteries haye been
stopped. Institutions for pre-.
servation of morals, relief of
human sufferings, for perpetual.
ity of our institutions are spring.
ing up Oh every hand. The idea
of reformation of criminals rath-
er than their punishment is TAX
ing deep hold Q. the minds of
men. There is more money today
devoted to charity per capita
than ever before. Controversial
religion has passed and practical
religion is at hand. The masses
of the people are working up to
the fact that politics should be
purified, demanding primary re-.
forms"
