FIRE FIGHTERS
 90 G0OD WORK

Another costly fire visited Flat City last Sunday afternoon, while the wind was blow ing a tolerably pert gale, and had not there been exceptionally effective and vigorous work by volunteer firemen there IS no guessing where the conhagra1ion would have stopped The fire originated in large cabin located at the corner of Second street and the Rue de Lymph, and was under good headway when the fire fighters arrived on the scene and they got there ia quick time. too Early in the game 1t was found that it would be impossible to save the adjoining cabin. so the tlremen armed with long iron hooks attached to poles and steel cable, turned their attention to raging the adjoining frame structure. Twas but few minutes before the power ful men had the building leveled and the danger of the fire spreading was greatly reduced While the house was being torn down regular avalanche of large chunks of snow was heaped on the flames ot the burning cabins and those close by, winch had the good effect of lessening terrors. It was this good work which saved Frank Stanley's ice house from destruction, as 1t stood within the danger zone.
 The sDlendid work of the fire fighters Was the topic of general comment and com mendation by all who witnessed the fire,

WHERE SYMPATHY BELONGS

With whom do we sympathlze in the pending war;" asks a correspondent. We'll answer that. With the German, French, Belgian and English boys who man the .renches. With the German, French, 4,rglish and Belgian boys WOO crowd the hospitals. Nltn the mothers who bore
 hese boys. With the fathers who saw
 hem grow to manhood and loved them as hey grew. With the women who were welded to thoea boys With the children hey left when lney marched 10 the t'o0p With the poor peasant who struggles against the press of war -engendered poverty. With those who in the cities cry out for food, With the men who fight for fatherland, hating war in their hearts. With the great artists like kreisler, who must turn thelr marvellous melody producing fingers to works of destruction. With the people who must live out their days with lives forever blighted by this war. With the innocent whose fields have been trampled under foot by marching armies With all the host ot those who, under the press of mistaken patriotism, must offer up their lives These are the ones with whom we sympathze- Johnstown Democrat.

 HAS PAINFUL ACCIDENT

Harry P Sheppard, who recently took charge of the deputy marshals office at Flat City, met with painful accident last Sun day night while inspecting the ruins of two burnt cabins In some manner he made a false step and was thrown to the ground, striking his left shoulder with sufficient vio- lence to dislocate the same.

MAJOR ZACHARY I. WOOD
 DIES IN NORTH CAROLINA

Word has been received of the death of Major Zachary Taylor Wood, assistant com missioner of the Northwest Mounted Police of Canada, at Asheville, N. C., January 15
 Of all the officers of the Northwest police who were connected with that very impor- tant and exceedingly useful branch of the Canadian government in the early klondike days probably none was so widely known as Major Wood and none more generally respected.
 Major Wood was a grandson of President Zachary Taylor. His father, Captain Wood of the Confederate navy, commanded the Confederate cruiser Mississippi, which prob ably ranked next to the Alabama as com merce destroyer After the war he was one of those of the South who fled to Canada, locating at Halifax with his young South ern wife Their son, named for his distin- guished grandfather, the hero of Bueno Vista, and the twelfth President of the United States was raised in Canada and became an officer in the Canadian North west Mounted Police. He lived an active life in the service in the Northwest terri tories and the Yukon, and died in the South land, where so many of his kinsmen had lived and added to the glory of their states ;aPd country.
 SAt the time of his death Major Woods command was at Regina.
 Major Wood possessed many of the brusque and direct characteristics and man. nerisms that made "Old Rough and Ready a popular hero in the United States during the midway portion of the last century Always honest and honorable, efficient and capable, Major Wood will be sorely missed by many friends and admirers.

TO CARRY IMMENSE SHAFT
 OVER TRAIL TO IDlTAROD
Seward Gateway, Feb. Sl

George Riley who arrived on the Ala meda, has brought in d tumbler shaft which he went out to secure The shaft weighs 1,6OO pounds, and will be drawn in over the snow to be ready for the work in the spring, instead of waiting for the opening of navigation. The task to take 1t over the trail will be a huge one, but MT. Riley believes that the Improvements recently made in the trail which he took some part in having done, will be 3 big help. It is worth mentioning in this respect that thou sands of tons of stuhs are being shipped to the Interior during the summer by the Yukon river which will be taken by rail road when the railroad is an accomplished fact In that way a railroad will have the chief tonnage of the whole country.
