Lake Crystal Union: Fire destroy
ed the household effects on the
ground floor of the William Thomas
home last Thursday evening about six
o'clock. Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas had
and left the house in charge of their
oldest daughter, Lillian. While light
ing kerosene stove, to prepare sup
per for the others, she dropped a
match on the floor where some kerr
osene had leaked out which ignited.
A gasoline can stood near and the
other girl Margaret endeavored to
get il away from the proximity of
the fire, and in her hurry dropped
the can, which took fire and explod-
ed, sending flames through the en-
tire lower floor.
The children made heroic efforts
with water and -four to extinguish
the blaze receiving quite severe
burns on the arms. The alarm was
given and the fire company quickly
subdued the fire upon their arrival,
but not until the furniture and wood
work was charred and burned. The
upstairs portion of the house was
not injured. Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
were located by telephone and 1t
was with a great feeling of relief to
find the children alive and not seri-
ously hurt. II was close call and
very fortunate that they were not
killed by the explosion.

er and the feeling and personality
which he. puts into what he has to
say is even more convincing and
compelling than his logic. He has al
ways been ready TO respond to calls
to speak, and the people of every
part OF the state have had OPP
portunity to hear and see him.
His home. like his Office door, has
always been open to anyone wanting
his help or advice, and no one with
just cause ever appealed to him in
vain. Hundreds of students will al
ways bless him for some special con-
sideration of their particular needs

or late years his interest in inter
national peace has been paramount,
and he is the president of the Mime

caused him great sorrow.
One OF the finest tributes ever paid
any man is contained in the follow
ing poem. published in the Gopher
Cthe junior class year book of the
class OF 1901. The poem was written
by n committee OF the class and rep-
resents, with wonderful fidelity, the
feelings OF thousands OF those who
have heard "Prexy Pray"
When Prexy prays
Our heads all bow.
A sense of peace
SmOoths every brow,
Our hearts deep stirred
No whispers raise,
At chapel time
When Prexy prays.
When Prexy prays
All hearts unite,
And closer draws
The Infinite;
No thoughtless wit
Himself displays,
At chapel time
When Prexy prays.
When PreXy prays,
Our better self
Is raised above
All thoughts of pelf;
To nobler lives
Incline our ways,
At chapel time,
When Prexy prays.

BALD JACK ROSE ON STAND IN
BECKER, CASE-TELLS' STORY
New York, May 12.-Bald Jack
Rose, star witness~for the state, in
its efforts to send Charles Becker,
former police lieutenant to the cleo
trio chair for plotting the murder of
gambler Herman RosenthaI, took the
stand today shortly before noon.
Bald as an egg, Rose presented a
peculiar picture. Heavy rings cir
cled his dark eyes as he leaned for
ward in the witness chair answering
in low voice the questions prelim-
mary to the whole disclosure of what
he alleges was Becker's murder plot.
Becker leaned forward in his chair
when Rose took the stand and show
ed as the lines deepened in his face
that he realized the climax of his case
was near.
Led by District Attorney Whitman,
Rose began the original story of the
negotiations with Becker. He said
the then Gear of the Tenderloin'
wanted RosenthaI killed because his
"squeals" to Whitman Iessened
Becker's safety.
Immediately before Rose took the
stand, William Shapiro, driver of the
gray murder car" from which the
TOUR gunner leaped to kill RosenthaI,
told his story. Briefly he went over
the facts of the tragedy. His most
important testimony, however, relat-
ed to a conversation between the
four gunner in his car as they near
ed the scene of the murder.
Shapiro testified:

Whitley Lewis, say these words:

FoRclBLE DISARMAMENT IN
COLORADO BEGINS TOMORROW
Trinidad, COL, May 12.-Forcible
disarmament of civilians in the
Southern Colorado strike zone who
are not entitled to bear arms will
begin at 5 p. m. tomorrow, according
to a proclamation by Colonel James
Lockett, of the Eleventh United
United States Cavalry, posted
throughout the zone today. Coal
strikers, mine guards or others who
have not voluntarily surrendered
their weapons at that hour may be
searched,
Lockett also issued a proclamation
defining the governments policy with
respect to reopening of mines. 1t
held that mines closed when the
strike commenced must remain clos
ed during the occupancy of the strike
zone by federal troops.
Mines which were closed by. the
violence of April 20 and the four
days of fighting which followed, may
reopen with the forces of men en-
ployed when the fighting commenced.
The coroner's jury which investi-
gated the battle of Forbes April %,
when IL mine guards and strike
breakers were slain, has returned a
verdict finding the men "came to
their deaths from gunshOt wounds
inflicted by weapons in the hands of
striking coal miners"
Washington, May 12.-Reopening
any mines now closed at Canon City
or Walsenburg or in Boulder coun-
ty, Colorado, would inject into the
strike situation a new and danger
Gus element, according to Sec'y of
War Garrison, who declared that
conditions might easily be made Sc
rious if any change is made before
