BRUSH FIRE SPREADS
TO SERVANTS HOUSE

Fire threatened group of residences
on Hastings street near the lower Ma
noa road yesterday morning when the
servants quarters of Major Cheatham S
home caught fire and were partially
Quilted.
The fire spread at different times to
the main house and to the house of a
ncighbor but never succeeded in doing
more than scOrch few shingles. The
MakiN fire company responded to the
alarm and handled the blaze exclusively
with chemical apparatus although sew
eral lines were laid on the house in
readiness for use.
1t is believed that the fire started
from sparks from brush fire in the
near vicinity. There was only one ser
want at home at the time. The build
ing is the property of General DAVIS.

excused herself and disappeared.
Later black automobile stopped at
the curb and four men emerged, all

took effect. The four men dropped
their revolvers, entered the auto and
disappeared before policemen appeared.
Walters at Jackson s restaurant were
unable to furnish the police with eth

1t is believed the shooting had been
planned for some time
The police suspect that members OF
"Dopey Benny's' gang had something

VOLCANO STABLES is
PREPARING APPEAL

HlLO, August 4.--The Volcano Sta

in the civil case in which the county,
through Attorney Breckons, obtained a
judgment in the district court for S2l0,
collected AS auto hire in connection
with services peri/rmed for former
Chairman Jim Lewis of the board of
supervisors. While the company made
no defense before Judge Wise it will
base its defense in the circuit court
on the contention that the services were
actually performed not by the Volcano
Stables Company itself, but by the Hilo
Mercantile Company, which held title
to the car used, aud which acted as
an agent for the defendant.

sistency, in view Of the fact that he
has saved il the trouble of prosecu-
tion, which, while it could have only
one result would have involved much
time and expense, and also because of
the fact that Purdy had the decency
TO resign from the board of supervisors.
On the other hand, the commission feels
that it cannot depart from what has
become almost an established policy,
namely, TO prosecute each CRATER on
felony charge wherever the facts
warrant it, However, while the com.
mission has given ont nothing in this
respect, II is probably good guess that

charges.

Wan, Weary
and Worn Out
If You Feel Tagged to a Fin
ish and Utterly Used Up
Here is Quick Relief.

Half the people you meet complain Of
weary muscles, stagnant brain, tangled
nerves, and a wonderful desire to lay
down and just quit. Most of these people
have been using nervines that spasmod-
ically flare up the nerves only to die
down again, as die they must. Avoid
nerve stimulants.. Bear in mind that this
worn out feeling is due to poor blood,
to bacteria in the water you drink; to
the multiplying of destructive germs in
the blood faster than they can be over
come by the white corpuscleS; and to
what is known as auto-toxemia, that con-
dition where the venous or impure blood
accumulates faster than it can be re-
placed by the red arterial blood.
If you feel played out go to any drug
store and ask for a bottle of S. S. S.,
Swift's Sure Specific Here is a remedy
that gets at work in a twinkling; it just
naturally PUSHES right into your blood,
scatters germs right and left, up and
down and sideways.
You feel better at once, not from a
stimulant, not from the action of drugs,
but from the rational effect of a natural
medicine just as active and just as time
1y as to a man who has been lost in the
mountains, is about starved and comes
across settler just cooking a savory
meal of good honest beef. Do not neglect
to get a bottle of S. S. S. today. It viii

THOMPSON is BUSY.
Senator From Kansas Studying Cur
rency Reform.

Washington, March 3.-The new SEN
ator from Kansas, William H. Thomp-
son, is busily engaged in a study of
currency reform, and is advocating the
appointment of a new special senate
committee to have charge of this legis-
lation. Senator Thompson has bad con-
siderable correspondence with banking
and business men throughout his state,
and in this regard says:
IT have many letters suggesting vari-
Gus reforms, but their general tenor is
to the effect that the writers do not
know exactly what should be done, but
that something is certainly necessary to
fully protect the depositors and the
bankers and to absolutely prevent
panics. I shall give special study to
this important matter in compliance
with the urgent requests of my consti-
tuents from every section of the state.
I am giving special study to the recent
work written by J. Lawrence Laughlin,
chairman of the National Citizens
league, on banking reform. 1 will also
be glad to hear from anyone with a
knowledge and experience in such mat
ters 1 have received no less than a
dozen letters in today's mail relative
to this important subject. In talking
with various senators, 1 feel quite GER
tain that this special committee will be
formed"

RISES FROM ASHES
New Buildings Replace Burned
Bennington Structures.
Water and Electrical Plants to
Be Installed.

Bennington, Kan, March 3.-The
wind that blows no good at all IS an
ill wind, and the breeze that famed
the flames that destroyed nearly the
entire business section of Bennington
on the night of April rs, 1912, was re-
garded as a very ill wind, indeed. An
other saying is that blessings come in
disguise, and a very trite saying it is,
for while some who viewed the ruins
of the fire the following morning de-
clared that Bennington would be no
more than a cash in the right of way,
wide place in the road, SO to speak,
like the Phoenix of old, the town has
risen from the ashes on q larger and
more substantial scale than even the
most sanguine had dared to hope, thus
convincing all that while the fire was
a bad one, hard on some of the indiYl-
dual losers, it was the best thing that
could have happened for Bennington.
Instead of the irregular line Of old
wooden structures along Main street
and which were, with the exception of
less than half a dozen. destroyed by
the fire, now stand handsome fire
proof business blocks of brick, stone,
concrete and metal, most of them now
occupied, but some on account of be
II recently finished are empty. True,
there are a few lots visited by the fire
which are but blackened holes, but as
soon as spring opens buildings will be
erected on these lots.
OF the new structures erected since
the fire last April mention might be
made of the one built by the Benning-
ton State bank to be used exclusively
as a poStOfflce and office building, a
handsome two-story of pressed brick
and metal. The Masonic and Odd Eel
low block, with store rooms below
and halls and offices above, is a credit
to any town, and to the Masons and
Odd Fellows of this place who lost all,
even their records every scrap of pa
per, furniture and paraphernalia in
the fire. To the ladies' auxiliary of
these orders must be given great cred
it, for they have furnished both the
Masonic and the Odd Fellow halls,
carpeted the floors with carpets with
emblematic designs of their respective
orders, equipped a magnificent and
spacious dining hall back of the main
halls. the common property of both
the Masonic and Odd Fellows orders.
Besides doing all this, these indus
triouS ladies must be given the credit
of buying the paraphernalia for both
orders.
Last fall Bennington had an cleo
ton to vote bonds for waterworks,
the measure carrying by more than
strong & Bertch at Solomon to fur
nish Bennington with electricity for
lighting and power purposes, Mr..
Bertch declaring that in wiring from
Solomon he finds that there will be
many along the route between Solo
mon and Bennington who will be buy
ers of electricity, enough to make the
venture a very paying proposition.
BY the first of July of this year
Bennington will not only have an eff
ficient water and lighting system, but
will be foremost in enterprise and
push of any town in the Solomon val
ley.

the erection of a temple and now have
property valued at over $4,000. The
temple is located in a good business

purposes, all of the Masonic bodies of
town using the rooms for meetings
Today sees the upper part of the build

first meeting of the lodge in the new
temple will be tomorrow evening when
it is expected that all the Masons be-
longing to this lodge will attend. 1t is
probable that the temple will not be
dedicated for month, when it is pro-
posed to have the grand lodge officers
present and all Masons of the county
present, a banquet being served. Clay
Center Masons are particularly proud
of their fine new temple.
