THAW LOSES PLEA IN COURT
Deportation of Slayer From Canada
Now Rests on Question of Insan-
lty-Lawyers Ask for Writ.

Coaticook, Quebec.-The only
question now to be decided by the
board of inquiry of the Dominion
immigration department in it's hear
ing looking toward the deportation Of
Harry X. Thaw is whether the slayer
of Stanford White is sane or insane.
If adjudged insane, as is confident
ly expected, he will be ordered out
Of the country, but maybe not for
several days. The contention raised
by Thaw that he was tourist trav-
cling through Canada en- route to De-
troit, Mich, was oyerruled by the
board of inquiry.
M. K. Lafamme, X. c., now chief
counsel for Thaw, left Coaticook mys-
teriously, and it is understood he had
gone to Montreal to obtain writ of
habeas corpus to liberate Thaw from
the custody Of the immigration au-
thorities.

SLAYER OF PHYSICIAN HELD
Mrs. Harvey Fields Story of Abuse Is
Denied by Or. Gordon's Partner
at Coroner's Inquest.

Cairo, Ill.-Haryey R. Fields
vas held by the coroner's jury
without hail, charged with the murder
Of DR.. E. E. Gordon, whom he shot
and killed. Mrs. Fields bears out her
husbands story that the doctor
abused her in his office
DR.. G. H. McNemer, DR.. Gordon's
business partner, declares that Fields
story about the visit Of his wife to
DR.. Gordon's office is untrue. He says
that he remembers the visit, about a
month ago, and that Mrs. Fields
asked permission to write letter to
her brother, as she wanted to tell him
about some family affairs.
DR.. McNemer says that he did not
want to be drawn into the trouble by
the use Of their office stationery, and
that he told DR.. Gordon to have her
go to the postoffice and write her
letter. With that she left the Office,
according to DR.. McNemer.

ATHLETE OF scHoLAR1

Recently there has been heard some
little complaint that this is an era Of
loneliness and depression for the
scholar; that the intellectual life is
secondary in college thought; and that
q is the football player who is carried
from the campus on the shoulders OF
his cheering fellows, and not the man
who achieves distinction in academic
studies. But really there is no reason
for resentment here. In the first place
there Is no good reason why the ath.
lete should not be honored, if he is a
good athlete and honest But espe.
cially do the plodding students lose
sight Of one big fact. The athlete has
all the honor today but tomorrow his
name is forgotten, says the St Paul
Pioneer Press. Why deny him his
brief hour Of glory when It is SO tenn
porary and eyanescent? The scholar
may not be carried on the shoulders
Of his admiring friends. But when he
does fix for himself his place In life
he has fixed it there for all time. His
influence will be as large tomorrow as
today. The best sellers for day or
two put all the classics in the shade
But after the day or two is past the
classics are doing business at the old
stand.

Not long ago we read the following
in one Of the southeast papers, says
the Pennington (Mo) Times. Talk
about ideal girls? How goes this one
as a record breaker? "The bride is a
young lady Of wondrous fascination
and remarkable attractiveness, for
with manners as enchanting as the
wand of siren and a disposition as
sweet as the odors Of flowers and
spirits as joyous as the caroling OF
birds and mind as brilliant as those
glittering tresses that adorn the brow
OF winter, and with heart as pure as
dewdrops trembling in yiolets. she
will make the home Of her husband a
paradise of enchantment like the love
ly home of her girlhood, where the
heaven toned harp Of marriage, with
its chords Of love and devotion and
fond endearments sent forth the
sweetest strains that ever thrilled
senses with the rhythmic pulsing OF
ecstatic rapture"

8 FROM BATTLESHIP DROWN
Launch of Nebraska Sunk as HurrI-
cane Sweeps Virginia Coast
OFF Fort Monroe.

Newport News, Va.-Three pet
ty officers and five men of the
crew Of the battleship Nebraska were
drowned when one of the ships
launches went down in Hampton
Roads during a hurricane that swept
over this section. The men were 60
ing ashore to Old Point when their
launch was struck by waterspout,
according to watchers on the pier.
The Nebraska is lying at anchor
off Fort Monroe but owing to the
fact that the wireless at that station
was put out of commission by the
storms, the names of the eight men
could not be obtained. Communica-
tion by means of small boats was cut
OFF by the rough seas.

One Of the great American organi-
cations for the development Of the
farm is circulating a pamphlet in
which the following stirring passage
appears: Fathers and mothers of
the farm, if you would interest the
children in farm life and keep them
with you, take them into a limited
partnership. Why wait until you are
dead before giving them property
interest In what you have? Encour-
age the boy early to study farming;
supply two or three good farm pa
pers; have him send for bulletins,
which are furnished by the govern
ment AS a further stimulus. give
him an interest In the farm income
say 10 per cent. to begin with-and
increase 1t as he shows interest and
efficiency" If the above were follow
ed there is no doubt that children
would take greater interest in the
farm, and 1t would not be so hard to
keep them on 1t.

COURT HOUSE, CITY HALL, JAIL,
AND HIGH SCHOOL AMONG
BUILDINGS DESTROYED.
DYNAMITE STOPPED FLAMES
Fire Starting in Negro Cabin Is
Famed by 4o-Mlle-an-Hour Wind
and Is Soon Beyond Control Of
Firemen and Volunteers.

Hot Springs, Ark.-Fire which
started in the southeastern section Of
Hot Springs swept a path of destruc-
zion seven blocks wide and Is blocks
long, destroying many of the principal
hotels and public buildings.
The loss is estimated at more than
$1O,000,OOO, So far as can be learned
no persons have been sacrificed in
the flames, but many animals were
burned to death.
A gale of 80 to 40 miles velocity
famed the flames and swept them
through the L-shaped valley in which
the city is situated, and all efforts
Of the Hot Springs fire department
and that Of Little Rock, which arrived
by special train, to check the onrush
were unavailing.
The fire, which started in a negro
cabin, slowly died out at the foot of
West Mountain, the southern extrem-
ity OF Hot Springs.
Gov. Hays ordered military patrol
Of the burned district.
Few of those whose homes were
burned saved any of their household
effects and guests Of the hotels gave
little heed to their valuables and lug
gage in their efforts to escape the
flames
The fire fighters attempts were
deemed futile early in the evening
and they left the work and tuSnd
their attention to trying to save build
ings not touched by the flames.
The fire started on Church street,
east of the government reservation
and army and navy hospital. Sweep
ing enthusiastically, it burned fierce
ly, rapidly destroying the frame build
ings and shacks in that district.
When the rising wind shifted and
swept the flames in the direction of
the business and hotel region the city
officials sent hurried and urgent ap.
peals to Little Rock for aid
The fire burned west on Malvern
avenue, destroying the Park hotel
and numerous wholesale houses.
Again the gale shifted and the fire
was swept south, leveling the new
high school, post office, Auditorium
theater and Ozark sanitarium.
Other buildings destroyed were the
Moody and Princess hotels, Garland
county court house, city hall and the
new city Jail.
The inmates of the Ozark SANTA
rum, which was destroyed we're all
safely moved to the st. Joseph in
Urinary.
Although no casualties were report
ed many persons were injured or
slightly burned.
With the destruction of the water
and light plants the city was plunged
in darkness at nightfall but for the
glare of the destructive flames.
A supreme effort of the fire fight
ers to divert the flames away from
tn city's most pretentious residence
district met with success. 1t was the
purpose Of the firemen to sidetrack
the flames toward a suburb Of South
Hot Springs.
When the wind again veered dyna-
mite was used to good effect in keep
ing the flames away from the Central
avenue district, and the fire seized
upon South Hot Springs as its prey
