DRASTIC FIRE BILL
State Marshal Supports Ger
man Measure in House.
Owner of Property Where Fire
Originates Is Responsible.

Where fire is communicated from
one building to another, the owner Of
the property in which the fire origin
ated would be responsible for the
financial loss Of other property own
ers, under terms of a bill in the house
today by Frank L. Travis of Allen
county. The Travis measure, propos-
ed by Harrison Parkman, state fire
marshal, has real teeth in it; and
places the burden of proof in any case
on the property owner.
A law similar to the one proposed
by Travis is in force in several foreign
countries and has been a law in Ger
many for a number of years. The
Kansas act is drafted along the lines
of the German law. 1t is the most
drastic and far reaching fire preven-
ton law ever proposed in Kansas and
Will probably start a real fight in the
legislature.
In event fire spreads from one
building to another and results in loss
or injury to an adjoining property
owner. the person, firm or corporation
in whose property the fire originated
must establish to the satisfaction of
the court the fact that they were not
responsible. Prevention Of careless
ness. erection of safe fire walls, and
a material reduction in fire losses is
the hope of State Marshal Parkman
if the measure Is enacted by the leg
iSlature.

Guests in the Saddle Rock hotel in this

escaped in their night clothes when a
fire, originating in the dining room
completely destroyed the building.

to get out Of the building. he was
overcome by smoke in the hall on the
second floor, but was rescued by
Charles Reeves, a brakeman from
Osawatomie, who dragged him out to
the porch balcony. There he succeed
ed in reviving King and the two
climbed down tree to safety in their
night clothes just as the wall of the
building gave way.
The fire was started by an oil burn

covered until the whole room was

burned rapidly. There were about
twenty guests in the hotel at the time.
most Of them being railroad men. All
of the men lost their watches. clothes
and valuables of every description.
The hotel was run by c. E. Lewis:
Total loss this morning was estimated
at $1,000, partially covered by insur-
ance. It is thought that the building
will be replaced by modern struc-
ture. as it was a popular hotel with
all railroad men and was used extern
sively by them.

PUT STOMACH
IN FINE
CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results from an Elk
cess Of Hydrochl0ric Acid.

Undigested food delayed in the
stomach decays, or rather, fermentS
the same as food left in the open air,
says q noted authority. He also tells
us that indigestion is caused by hyper
acidity, meaning. there is an excess of
hydro-chrolic acid In the stomach
which prevents complete digestion and
starts food fermentation. Thus every
thing eaten sours in the stomach
much like garbage sours in can,
forming acrid fluids and gases which
initiate the stomach like q toy balloon.
Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery
in the chest, we belch up gas, we
eructate sour food or have heartburn,
fatulence, water-brash or nausea
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter before breakfast and drink while
it is effervescing and furthermore, to
continue this for week. While re-
lief follows the first dose, it is i'm
portant to neutra1ize the acidity, re-
move the gas-making mass, and thus
promote a free flow of pure digestive
juices.
Jads Salts is inexpensive and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice. combined with lithia and
sodium phosphate. This harmless
salts IL used by thousands of people
for stomach trouble with excellent re-
sults.-zAdv.

The senate in committee of the
whole has approved two bills making
it a felony to draw check on a bank
in which the writer has no funds, with
intention to defraud. The bad check
nuisance has become prevalent in
Kansas and all the senate agreed to
the desirability of correction. Bills
149 by Price Of Greenwood and 2O4
by Klein have the same object and one
OF them Is morally certain to be pass
ed. The only objection offered was
on the ground that it might involve

this.

ton on the period which a mortgage
