Magnitude Of the Movies.

Some idea of the extent to which
the motion picture business has grown
in the last few years may be gathered
from the announcement that the
Pennsylvania state board of censors
examined more than six million feet,
or about a hundred and fifteen miles,
of film submitted for approval during
the six months from June l to the
end of November. Each film averages
a thousand feet In length, and runs
fifteen minutes. so their exhibition
alone would occupy over sixty-two
full days of twenty-four hours. or one
hundred and eighty-seven working
days of eight hours each. AS the av-
erage five-cent show includes four
such reels, it a be seen that enough
films have already been inspected to
give at least fifteen hundred such per-
formances without repetition or dupli-
cation. When such facts as these are
brought to light it became clear why
the so-called Legitimate" theatrical
business has struck the worst slump
this season ever known in its his
tory.

FIRE DESTROYS $4,000 WORTH
OF WOOL NEAR EUREKA

Wool to the value of $780, 900 was de-
stroyed by fire last Friday night at a
little siding by the name of Oaks, 80
miles south of Palisade on the Eureka
& Palisade railroad. The wool was
owned by the Eureka Land & Stock
company, and was a part of their
spring clip, that had been piled along
side the track, waiting shipment to the
east, aud consisted of $40 sacks, each
weighing about 300 pounds. To one
side were pileed IS sacks of especially
choice wool, and this was saved, to-
gether with a portion of the charred
wool, amounting altogether TO 50 sacks.
President Kimball, Of the First Ma
tiOnal bank, who is interested in the
company, received a telegram Satur-
dav afternoon. and Immediately left
for Oaks. He returned yesterday and
tells us that from the best information
that they can secure the fire was prob
ably caused by a spark from the en-
CINE of the train that went down Fri
day afternoon. The FIRE was discovered
a short time after the train has pass,
ed, by the Waterman of the mine near
by, who had been at the crossing when
the train passed through. At that time
he had seen no evidence Of fire, and
probably an hour later, on looking out.
saw the wool burning.
He did what he could to save the
wool, but the big sacks were too much
for him. and until help arrived he ac-
complished but little. The smoke and
fire soon attracted the attention of the
people in that vicinity. who foeked 20
the scene and who worked all night
fighting the flames, but in spite Of all
they could do the huge pile of wool
was burned with the exception of three

IL Is reported Mrs. Aston will soon
ask for an increased allowance.
In showing what. II cost to
maintain the baby, ''befitting his
station In life," 1t is set forth
that in addition to such direct ex-
penditures as clothing, toys, fees
for doctors and lawyers, etc., it
is fair to charge up to him at
least one-third of such other ex-
penses as the taxes on the New
York mansion which cost his
mother $4,000 for two years.
Also, 1t is set forth that the up
keep of this place, including serv-
ants hire, supplies, ETC., cost
$4,000. of which baby John
ought to pay 100000.

goes on to state that Mrs. Astor
has not charged to her sons ac-
count any rent for the Bar Har-
Dor home. nor the cost of trips
