BIG APPLE HOUSE
John Miller, Berkeley County Apple
King, Sustains Loss of $4,000
at Noon Today.

The apple house on the John Miller
farm, a mile north OF Ge~rrardstown,
caught fire at noon today and burned
down, together with a shed adjoining
the apple house, entailing a loss

partly covered By Insurance.
Some men working on Mr.. Miller's
place had started a fire in the stove

dinner at Mr.. Miller's, nearby. Some
time afterwards smoke was seen com.
ing out Of the apple house, a large
frame building, and in a few minutes
the whole structure was ablaze, defy.
ing efforts TO extinguish it. The
flames communicated To a shed in
which was about $500 worth OF cooper
stuff, and that. TOO, soon went up in
smoke. In the apple house we're
some 500 barrels OF apples and about
a thousand empty apple barrels, all
Of which We're destroyed with the
two buildings.
Mr.. Miller is known as one OF the
most extensive as well as one OF The
wealthiest apple growers in Berkeley

Getting Low.

Railroad men report that this was

Throughout the mountain region the
Thermometer was three. four and five

do not expect it to be maintained for
any considerable length of time.
While severe cold .yas keenly felt

change, and it vas with difficulty they

With the voting 20 far as not indi-

Progressive party in this state and a
relative of it's founder, Theodore

According to the land officials in
Los Angeles the Iron Chief Company,
after expanding $1,000, 900 in buying
mp the claims of other entrymen in
the Riverside field, asked the govern
ment in 1910 and 1911 for patents on
the property. Helm made an inves-
tigation and filed with the General
Land Office in Washington a report
in which objections to the granting
of patents to the Iron Chief Mining
company We're made on the grounds
that the company had not complied
with the requirements of the govern
ment law, that the as sessment work
had been done by a contractor; that
the contractor had not performed
work TO the stipulated extent of $500
a year on each claim, but had done
this work ON the land as q whole
wherever access was the easiest;
that the ore where the development
work was performed did not justify
the entry to the land under mineral
claim laws. and that a claim filed
upon with the avowed purpose of err

in that manner.
The verdict OF the General Land
Office in Wa ,hington. received here
today, sustained Helms contentious
and he at once prepared 10 file no
