Mrs. julie Macht and little daugh-

they were called by death of her faith

one of the land marks in the south

until about two years ago when he
was stricken with cancer. The wond-
erful vigor of his constitution stood
him well for few months, but the
last year the terrible physical afflic-
ton so completely overpowered him
the end has been expected for many

Mr.. and Mrs. A. j. Foster, who
were guests at the Hotel Savoy for
couple of days, left for California
yesterday morning. Mr.. Foster is
president of the Peoples bank of Bos-
ton and is reported to be one of the
wealthiest men in America. He is q
man who figuratively doffs his hat to
the memory of j. Pierpont Morgan
as the greatest person our country
has ever produced. His mission to
the San Juan basin was an education
al one-to teach the wool growers to
sell their produce through commits
sion men and eliminate the middle
man. Both he and his wife appear to
be estimable people, and especially
genial. If one felt at times the fl
nancial abyss that yawns between
them and person without bank ac-
count, it was surely not the fault of
those to whom fortune has been SO
kind.

Durango had an epidemic of fires
Saturday. The first occurred about
a o'clock in the afternoon, when the
fire department was called out to ex-
tinguish a blaze in the o. p. Frary
house, corner Of Sixth avenue and
Ninth street. The building caught
from sparks that set on fire leaves
and rubbish that had accumulated in
the roof gutter. 1t had made consid-
cradle headway when discovered. The
loss is estimated as being several hun
dred dollars, which is fully covered
by insurance. The furnishings were
jointly owned by Mrs. Fred Tompkins
and her brother, Oren Frary. This
was not insured, and the loss is con-
siderable, the principal injury being
done by the water. About 10 in the
evening, the department was called to
the j. I. Brewer dry goods store
which had been set on fire by an
overheated stove. While the flames
were leaping to the ceiling when the
department responded, they succeeded
in extinguishing the fire before a
great amount of damage was done.
The principal loss was caused by the
water. The stock is valued at $4,000
1t is insured for $3,400. The damage
to the stock is estimated at $4,000. Mr..
Brewer left the store about an hour
and half before the fire trcke out
The fire in the stove seemed at that
time to be the usual amount that he
had been accustomed TO leaving.
