BIC HOTELS BURN
st. Augustine Is Visited by q
Disastrous Fire.
Property Loss Is Estimated at
Half Million Dollars.

st. Augustine, Fla, April 2.-Fire
early today destroyed five tourists ho-
tells, the county court house and a num-
ber OF residences here. So far as known
no lives were lost, though many guests
at the Florida, Muson. Clairmont. At
lantic and Central hotels which were
destroyed. escaped scantily clothed and
had no time to save their personal be-
longings. ~sss--- - -
The flames were checked late this
forenoon. Property damage is estima-
ted between $500, 900 and $750.00
Nearly two blocks. near the water
business section of the city was en-
dangered but the flames finally were
checked by local firemen and a Sec
ton of the Jacksonville fire depart
ment which arrived on a special train
shortly before daylight.
The fire originated in the kitchen Of
tho Florida, a wooden structure. and
spread rapidly. The first alarm was
TUNED in at O'Clock. Firemen first
turned their attention to rescuing
guests at the Florida, many OF whom
were carried down ladders. Occu-
pants of the other hotels were warned
of their danger, and many fled into
the streets without any attempt to
save their personal belongings.
The burned section was bounded by
Charlotte. Treasury, Hypolita and st.
George streets.
Two persons were injured. The neck
of an unidentified woman was disloca-
ted and she was probably fatally hurt
when she plunged from the third story
Of a residence. A. Libby, a guest at
the Florida, broke a leg in 1eaping from
the second floor of the hotel. He will
recover.
The Vedder House, a famous land
mark containing valuable curios col
aot1 t11 <h0
society. was among the buildings de-
stroyed. A company of militia today
guarded the burned section to prevent
loOting.

ALAS, FOR Topeka
City Was Proud of Its Social
Survey Distinction.
But Now Wakarusa Township
Has Same Blushing Honors.

Topeka has swelled with pride in the
fact that she had Social Survey. That
the Carnegie society had conferred the
honor Of Permitting our fair city to
pay the surveyors for an estimate OF
crimes, stratgems and spoils, MI
crobes, cussedness and malaria, was a
source Of qualification and appeals for
funds. By reason Of this great distinc-
tion, Topeka was prone to look down
way down-upon the less fortunate VII
lagos and geographical subdivisions in
the immediate vicinity. But vanity
falls like ripe watermelon from the
top Of L shed roof-SQUASH!-ju
like that! Wakarusa township. Doug
las county. is to lave a social survey.
In. fact Walkarusa township HAS a So
cial survey.
This week the department OF sociolo-
gy of Kansas university started q com-
mittee on the work Of social surveying
Wakarusa township. The committee
will ponder Of the matter and then tell
the Wakarusans how to better them
selves. When the surveyors get
through. the agriculturists will know
whether to tie pink ribbon or a blue
one on the horns of the lowing kline;
whether to plant the sweet peas on the
north or west side Of the fence, and a
whole lot about raising pigs. babies and
other fauna.Wakarusa township, Doug
las county, is unfortunate in that it has
no red light district to socially survey,
and no paved streets to beautify with
flower beds. no street car tracks to
be planted in nasturtiums and no
white way. 1t is SO poorly equipped
with microbes and cigarettes that the
most fascinating part Of the report will
be sadly abbreviated. But Wakarusa
township. Douglas county, will have its
survey, Just the same. These things
are not necessary to q survey-they
merely adorn 1t like brindle
fringe on a Christmas card.

PARK CLOSING.

WOrkingmen Both Appear.
Commission Defers Action Tn.
til Next Monday.

With the Rev. J. D. Zimmerman of
North Topeka, active in the movement
for Sabbath observance ordinance
whereby park amusements might be
closed on Sundays. and Otis Hungate
representing petitioners against the
threatened closing, and a number Of
other interested persons present, dis
cussion of the issue involved was post-.
poned until Monday by Mayor Cofran
at meeting Of the city commission
today.
Mr.. Hungate stated that he had q
heavily signed petition with him ready
for presentation to the commission.
But Mayor Cofran told him it was not
the intention of the commission to
take up the ordinance until Monday
morning. Mr.. Hungate then said he
would save his remarks until that
time.
AS yet neither the mayor nor any
member of the commission has mem
toned anything which is now doing
business on Sundays which would be
closed should the ordinance pass, ex-
cept the amusements in the parks.

In counties where local tickets are to

these petitions are filed with the coun-
ty clerk in accordance with the pro-
visions of the law, a separate county
primary ballot will be printed for the
new party.
In order to secure as large a vote
as possible in the August primaries.

haps SO counties looking toward the
nomination of county Progressive
tickets. White and~ U. S. Sar-

Law IS HELD UP.
Referendum Petitions Cause Statute to
Become Invalid.

Jefferson City. April 2.lrhe county
unit local option law passed by the last
legislature is suspended pending a ref
erendum even though the secretary Of
state has made no formal announce
ment OF the suspension of the law, IL
was decided by the supreme court to-
day. The court ruled that the law was
suspended automatically. when refer
endum petitions were filed with the
secretary Of state.
In accordance with this decision the
court held that the recent local option
election in Mexico, Mo-. at which that
city voted dry was legal The cleo
ton was questioned on the ground that
the county unit law was in operation.
and that under that law Audrian coun-
ty should have voted as a whole, and
not the city of Mexico alone.
The supreme court also held consti-
tutional the benefit district road as
sessment law which last year was de-
clared by the same court unc0nstitu-
tional.
The court held unconstitutional the
law which permits the witness fees of
policemen to be paid into fund for
the benefit Of police relief associations.
