SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.

Notwithstanding the advent of the
midsummer season, general merchan-
disc distribution is of full normal vol
ume. The general business condition
of the country appears to be in ex-
cellent shape, except for the depress-
ing effect of unsettled political poll
cies. Crops everywhere, and espe-
cially in the Pacific Northwest sec
ton, promise more than normal re-
turns and business men anticipate a
good fall business.
Wheat harvesting is getting under
way in the Inland Empire section I'M
der very favorable conditions and in
dications are for crop some 10 to
Is per cent better than in any pre-
vious year. The lumber business con-
tinues moderately active with pros
poets of an increased movement in
the fall. Mining and other industries
are generally seasonably active.
In dry goods there is considerable
advance fall business reported with
markets steady to firm. Hardware
trade is satisfactory for this season of
the year, with markets fairly steady.
In grocery lines trade continues ac-
tive with advances in sugar and some
canned meats and milk. Early fruits
and vegetables are moving rapidly
now, with more plentiful supplies,
lower prices and active demand. In
produce lines there have been ad-
vances in hogs, pork, local lard and
local hams and bacon, with declines
in dressed meats and livestock, logan
berries, apricots, peaches, plums

mace In a Flash.

Binghamton, N. Y.-Fifty persons
were killed and as many injured, a
dozen of them MORALLY, In fire which
swept the four-story factory building
Of the Binghamton Clothing company
Tuesday afternoon. The victims
chiefly were women and girls.
Some two score persons are known
to have escaped as by a miracle from
the building, which burst into flame
like a tinderbox and became a roaring
furnace almost Immediately after the
first alarm was sounded.
About 1876 persons were in the fac
tory when the fire broke out. Those
unaccounted for, or most of them, are
believed still to be in the ruins of the
structure.
Watch for Bodies.
Around the scene of the fire district,
the greatest the city has ever known,
thousands watched the workers In the
glare of three big searchlights, many
in the great throng being restrained
only by the closely drawn police from
rushing into the ruins to seek the bod
les of relatives or friends.
Fire Drills Were Frequent.
In the tragedy the killing burst of
flame followed quickly upon the heels
of the alarm. There was small oppor-
tunity for any one to use the ordinary
or even the emergency, means of es-
cape Fire drills had been carried on
regularly, so frequently, in fact, that
the employees had found them monoto-
nous
The building was equipped with fire
escapes and an automatic alarm sys-
TEN.
Firemen of Little Use.
When the firemen arrived they were
unable to get within 200 feet of the
burning building and the ends Of the
streams from their hose were turned
into steam without effect on the fire.
The life nets and extension ladders OF
the firemen were equally useless
There was no chance for those caught
on the upper floors except last resort
to jump and this many took, while
others shriveled and crumpled with
the heat.

Oatmeal Men Win.

The Underwood bill, as passed by
the house of representatives, put
rolled oats, oatmeal and oat feed on
the free list. The oatmeal millers
went to Washington to secure equal
izing duties on oats and oat products
and won their fight by securing a duty
of 33c per 100 pounds on oatmeal and
rolled oats, and &C per 100 pounds on
oat feed. The senate committee made
this change and this clause of the bill
so amended, will go before the confer
ence committee.

MINES AND MINERS

Manufacturers of mining machinery,
rescue and first-aid apparatus and safe
ty appliances are to be given an op-
portunity to display their wares before
the mining men of the country at a
great industrial exposition to be held
under the auspices of the American
Mining Congress, in Philadelphia, Pa,
the week of October goth.
This exposition, the first of its kind
in this country, will be held in con-
junction with the annual convention
of the mining congress and the double
attraction is expected to attract thou
sands of interested men. 1t will be
entirely national in scope, the metal
mining interests of the West to be as
fully represented as the coal mining
of the East.
A number of the big coal companies
that have developed the Safety First
movement at their mines are now ne
gotiating for large amounts of space
to show the mining men and the pub
lie what they are doing in behalf OF
their men.
The exposition and the convention
promise to bring together the greatest
gathering of mining men in the coun
try and much good is expected from
it's deliberations.

Baggagemen and commercial trav,

Baggagemen and commercial travel
ers doubtless will read with interest
dispatches from Washington announc-
ing the decision Of the interstate COM
merce commission on the question OF
baggage as applied to size. Under the
ruling made public now a piece OF bag
gage in excess of forty-five inches in
any dimensions. excepting width as ap-
piled to cases." may be charged for
at excess rates by railroads, and if it
measures more than seventy-two
inches the carriers may refuse to ac-
cept it at all. Widths in cases may run
to ninety inches and twelve inches in
diameter. After a years notice a rail-
road may refuse trunks with more
than two bulging sides not opposite
each other. Railroads have long been
seeking a change in baggage regula-
tions. Some of the wholesale houses
having travelling representatives have
devised trunks of various sizes and
shapes until it has been almost impos-
sible to get some of them into Baggage
car doors. The railroads asked for a
forty-inch regulation but foTJy-fve

that with the advanced education
which the youth of today is in a posi-

of the vocations which he might fol-

take a greater fancy to one altogether
different than that which his father

COMMON SENSE.
By JAMES A. EDGERTON


In this age of specialization. fads
theorists, extremists and people run
ming around in circles the saving grace
of common sense Is needed as never be-
fore.
1t is needed especially by public men.
The American people as a whole pos.
sess not only a large fund of common
sense. but also a very healthy sense OF
humor.
The public man who gets too far to
one side in the pursuit of the gro.
tesque and arabesque' is in danger OF
exciting the risibilities of the populace.
There has been more than one man
in our history blown into oblivion on a
gale of laughter.
The moment the antics Of any cult or
school start guffaw across the CONT
nent 1t Is all or with that cult or
school.
The only safety from this real peril IL
common sense.
1t is hard to argue with nation or a
community laughing at you.
We are very tolerant of fads, but
when they get too far from the line OF
common sense we laugh them Off the
stage.
Common sense is the essence Of hu.
man wisdom and experience in all lands
and ages.
It comes from real life, from actua,
contact with things.
It fits Bill Jones down on his little
farm on Possum crick, also Mr.. Will.

and globe trotter. of Pelham Manor
that is, If William Pinckney has not
followed some fad that led him off at q
mental tangent.
A robust supply of common sense Is
the first requisite for success in any
and every calling.
1t is the only safe guide for genius or
clodhopper.
1t is the fundamental requirement.
without which there is nothing-the
starting point for the pursuit Of all spe-
cial knowledge. 1t is as necessary as a
thorough grounding Of "the three RS
Is necessary as a basis of higher educa-
ton.
1t is the foundation on which special

And Also on Overstrono Tea and Even
on Cold Water.
According to a house surgeon in a
London hospital, 1t is not necessary to
take strong drink at all in order to be
drunk. Cases have been Known In
which patients have got drunk on q
beefsteak after having been for many
weeks on a very light diet. The in
toxication in these cases showed IT.
self in a slight dizziness and drowsi-
ness and indistinctness of speech.
Similar cases have been known In
which the only intoxicant has been
strong tea. In fact. there are instances
in medical books Of exceptional people
In whom the constant use Of over
strong. overdrawn tea has brought
about distinct symptoms of delirium
tremens.
Perhaps the most curious sort Of In.
toxication on record is that in which
the only intoxicant is cold water drip
ping from water tap into the ear.
In Germany a few years ago quite a
number Of morbid people had a crav-
ing for this curious way of inducing
drunkenness. but it seems to have been
stamped out
The drip of the water is said to
cause a painful boiling sensation at
first and then to cause pleasant drow-
siness, ending in deep sleep. When
the victim is reused he is dull and stu
pid in manner. like heavy drinker
This craze makes its victim a nervous
