CRIES OF CHILD
 SAVED FAMILY J. c. Simpson and Family Awakened to Find Home
 in Flames.
STORM DOES DAMAGE
Home of Campbell Fox is Struck By
 Lightnimg.-PhOnes Are Out of Commission.

The storm of yesterday morning caused a good deal of damage at diff ferent points in the city, the fire at the residence of J. c. Simpson, No. l12O West Sixth avenue, being the most serious. Mir. and Mrs. Simpson and children were awakened only in time to escape from the burning house with a few articles of wearing apparel and four trunks. the remainder of their personal effects and household goods being either burned or ruined by the water necessary to eXtinguish the blaze The house, which is practically a total loss, was owned by Mrs j. M. Anderson. who carried insurance of 5000. The household goods of Mir Simpson were insured for $500. which is about 90 per cent of their value.
 The fire had spread to such an cx- tent before being discovered that it was impossible to deter mine just at what point it originated but it is believed that it started from a bolt of lightning entering the attic over the electric wires running into the building. The first alarm was given when a small child of MT. and Mrs. Simpson awoke from the intense heat and cried out to it's parents that ho NT~c Simpson hastily donned their cloth ing, but carried the children and their clothing out of the burning house before dressing them. Just at this point Mrs. Simpson recalled that there was SIS in currency and silver under the pillow on her bed and Mr. Simpson rushed into the blazing room just in time to secure the money. as the mattresses were ablaze, one of the bills being turned nearly in half.
 The neighbors experienced great deal of trouble in sending in an alarm, since nearly every telephone in the neighborhood had been put out of commission by the lightning.
 The house of Campbell Fox. No. AT East Twelfth avenue was struck by lightning during the storm and con- siderably damaged. The bolt enter ed near the roof at point near the chimney, nearly destroying the brick work and burning the paper from the wall. In an adjoining room Mr. and Mrs. Fox with their two children, were sleeping. but Mir. Fox says that the bright light from the flash awak- ened him and his wife. When they at- tempted to turn on an electric light they found that the lightning had travelled over the wires and entered the meter, completely demolishing it.
 During the day yesterday trouble shooters" for both the Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone Company and the Pine Bluff Company. were busy taking out disabled telephones and meters, which the lightning had either put out of order or completely demolished. At numerous points along the lines of the Pine Bluff Con- pany, fuse blocks were torn complete ly from the poles and shattered.

should mean oposttion to the railroad because such suggestion carries will 1t the further suggestion that to MT Wickersham belongs the credit oi
 having the railroad bill presented. foi
 how could Mir. Wickersham have ask
 ed us to drop politics 90 that the bill
 might be supported unless he meant that because a paper was opposed to him 1t should necessarily be opposed to q measure which he created. Cut tt out, Mir. wickersham. and get of your foot. The Nugget for one las always expressed the belief that the construction of government rnil- road In Alaska would be the making of Alaska even when the Nugy.t was totally oblivious to the fact that Mr.
 Wtcksrsham had anything to do with 1t.
 Just imagine delegate pre-sup- posing that a paper would be unfair to its own territory without ever hay ing taken the trouble to ascertain the views of that paper and you will con- lure up a pretty fair mental picture of the very unfairness for which the de,egate takes us to task by implica- tion.
 If is again to be hoped that this issue will be sent to the delegate as he has requested So that the views of one Alaska paper at least may be brought to his attention. No doubt many other Alaskan newspapers have received the same gratuitous advice from the man who represents the ter ritory in congress and 1t is to be hoped that they will let MT. Wicker sham know for the first time. delegate and all as he h. that the newspapers of Alaska are as one in aiding to the full extent of their ability the cam- paigh for the construction of O gov ernment railroad, and that they have probably never thought for a moment whether Mir. Wickersham was on the same side or not.
 There is no effort here to belittle any work which MT. wickersham may have done towards the construction of the railroad but it Is decidedly irritat- ing to be told to be fair by n man who admits that he does not know how you stand in a matter and it Is also rather funny to see man placing himself in the position of one who re- Kards himself as the whole shooting match and the main issue. to oppose whom would mean to be unfair in all matters even to the retardinE of the development of the territory.

FOR A GREAT pRYpocK.

That the Pacific coast is to be the location for a new great drydock for naval purposes is understood to be a definite part of the plan of the navy department.
 Where the new drydock shall be built is, of course. as yet an unsettiei question. The influences interested in n northern site have for some months been very actively at work pulling hard for that section.
 The natural and most suitable To- cation for the new drydock is on the shores of San Francisco bay. It !" not necessary to argue that point here. It is obvious. The precise locaI>l cannot be named. but It is not unlikely to be somewhere along the Point Rich , mond shore or in that direction; nut the precise location is not of so mn . terial importance to the whole public as that 1t shall he somewhere on the bay.
 The building of a new drydOck nesd not, will not. and should not interf"re, nor he allowed to interfere. with tie maintenance of the Mare island navy yard in the most thorough manner.

Uffislal Paper
NOME, ALASKA, JULY ii. 1918.

The honorable James wickershani. delegate to congress from Alaska, in a letter published in the Nugget yes terday asked the addressee to see that the newspapers here treated the Alaska railroad matter fairly and he also asked for n copy of the paper which commented on the subject
 It can hardly be possible that MT. Wickersham gave much th G,s1t to that letter. To say that 1t Is offens Y } would surely not be saying too much. By asking any man ito see that the papers treated the matter fairly" Mr
 WIckersham evidently assumes that fair treatment would not be expected and he also assumes that the gentle man to whom the letter came could "see to it."
 The delegate in asking that copies be sent to him in which the railroad subject is dealt with seems to indicate that the delegate from the territory has not been reading the papers of the place he represents. The Nugget Is kept on file in the congressional li- brary and Mir. Wickersham could easily look at 1t if he ever desired to stoop to the persual of the paper which he now admits by implication could be injurious to the campaign of railroad building. and if n newspaper is powerful enough to do harm 1t seems to follow that it could go good and be worthy even of the notice and the respect of congressional dele gate.
 But if Mfr. Wickcrsham has not been reading the Nugget It Is suggested that the gentleman who received the letter would kindly send him this copy 70 that he might read this comment on his letter and matters general to the subject in dealing with which he asks us to forget politics.
 With the pleasing hope that the leg islative eye will scan this column ana % confer a sort of reflected literary dignity 1t will be said that the Nugget did not wait to be bastInadoed Into line by Mir .Wlckersham in favor of the construction of an Alaskan raii- road and 1t really resen's the sugges- ton that because MT. Wickersham is in favor of the building of the road everyone opposed to him in politics must be opposed to the great proposal now before congress. It also resents the suggestion that opposition to MT. Wickersham's political aspirations

Mrs. VI. f.. Robinson Heiress to a
Million

There is in England fabulous
sum of money, reaching we'll up into
the millions, awaiting to be disburs-
ed among the heirs OF John and
Richard Hazard.
On embarking for America, some
time about the 18th century these
two men left moderately large sum
OF money in the Bank of England,
London, which, not being taken out,
formed the nucleus for the present
ed annually to the principal and the
sum has gradually increased and will
continue TO grow until all the heirs
establish their claim.
Mrs. VI. E. Robinson Of this city
is the principal direct heir to Rich
ard Hazard and among the others
are Mrs. Julia White Of Savannah,
Secretary Of the Treasury W. G. Nc
Adoo, Mrs. E. VI. Howard of this
city, and Dr. BIackshear of Citra.
1t is only of recent date that any
decisive steps have been taken to
obtain a complete list of the de-
scendents, numbering into the hun
dreds and if the plan along which
lines the work is now progressing,
is successful, it will be probably
only a year or perhaps little long
er before the money will be divided.
Mrs. Robinson has been active in
the work of locating the heirs, which
in itself represents a vast amount OF
tedious correspondence. She has
searched family history and old,
musty documents and records, trying
to find some clue, if possible, which
Will assist in getting into commun-
icatiOn with heirs who have not been
located. The data obtained thereby
has been taken up by member of
her immediate family who has al
+ ready been in consultation with Mrs.
White, another diligent worker, and
at an early date Secretary McAdoo
will personally supervise the tabula2
ton of all the information, sending
it with a lawyer, accompanied by
one or more Of the heirs, to London,
where final steps will be taken to OBJ
tain the money.
Mrs. Robinson was a Miss Black
shear, daughter of DR.. E. J. Black
shear, of Macon, son OF James
Hamilton Blackshear, who married a
Miss Hazard, a near descendent of
Richard Hazard. One of the two
daughters of Richard Hazard mar
ried Floyd, a kinsman of Mrs.
Howard.
After the lawyers fee and other
expenses have been paid, Mrs Rob-
inson's portion of the immense sum
will amount to a million and a quar-
ter dollars. and probably more.
