Fires That Put Themselves Out.

There are numerous instances on
record in which fire has been the
means of extinguishing itself. These
examples of spontaneous incombustion
are not infrequent, even apart from
those cases in which it occurs through
the agency Of automatic sprinkless.
A fire in church in Boston, caused
by Spontaneous ignition" in store
room, melted the lead water pipes, and
the water issuing from them extin-
guished the fire.
Not very long ago some waste left
upon the top Of a steam pump at
Watertown, N. Y, blaZed from "spon-
taneOus ignition" and this in turn set
fire to the tagging round the sSeam
cylinders and the feed pipe, where it
melted the soldered attachments of a
continuous automatic oiler The
steam from the feed pipe was dis
charged through the small tubes lead

Innocent Bystanders,

Innocent bystanders probably work
for living like other honest people,
but they spend lots of time hanging
around street riots and gun fights.
An innocent bystander will very of
ten take two hours off Mt lunch time
hunting up a fight or fire to hang
around. Every innocent bystander
knows that some day his turn will come
and he is never able to kiss his wife
and children goodbye as he marches
away. Innocent bystanders are the
real heroes of daily life and a day of
the year should be set aside for their
celebration. SchoOlchildren should be
made to march through the streets in
parade escorting barge whereon is
depicted in tableau an innocent by
stander's death by q stray brick. The
boys in the fifth reader could do the
riot scene with spirit. An innocent
bystander not long ago, painfully
though not seriously injured by mis-,
directed club, howled with hideous
curses. Which shows that innocent
bystanders are not always so innocent.

the three remaining asSail&nts of Cruz,
who swore in the preliminary inquiry
that the killing was entirely unpro.
voked and deliberate, the chances
were strong that Cruz would expiate
the crime with his life. Commissions
Abbott's telegram effectively muzzled
Johnson.
But there were plenty of others anx.
ious to come forward in behalf of
Cruz. The Women's Christian Tenn
perance union at once flung itself into
the battle. They formed a Juan
Cruz defense committee, composed of
Mrs. H. H. Byrd, Mrs. Katherine B.
Patterson, Miss Clara True, Miss Mary
T. Bryan, and vowed Cruz should not
hang. A public appeal for funds was
sent out. The newspapers took up
the matter. Mr.. ]. B. Crist, one of
the most brilliant criminal lawyers in
New Mexico, was employed to de-
fend the young Indian.
The widespread interest in the de-
tense of Cruz attracted the notice of
Commissioner Robert G. Valentine,
head of the Indian department, who
was, as has been said, a stanch friend
of Pussyfoot, and who had been away
on sick leave. Valentine had once
received communication from John
son when the sleuth was in prison
upon some trumped-up charge or 9TH
er, and had wired back:
"As you know, am with you to
the limit, in prison or out"
Mr.. Valentine now interested him.

diately reversing the order of Assist

ing Johnson instructions to do every
thing in his power to help the boy.
Johnson had done that already. He
had written to the defense commit
teo to the following effect:
Referring to our conversation of
the other day in the.matter of Jean
Cruz, must repeat that, under in.
structions from Assistant Commits
sioner Abbott, cannot take part in
his defense. This of course does not
bar me from contributing personally
to the fund raised for employment of
counsel for his defense. therefore
enclose my personal check for $50
toward the fund.
THE thing lies heavily upon my
heart. For six month Juan gave
splendid aid to my officers in SUD-
pressing the Eqror traffic among the
P,:eblos, of whom he is one. And
when our appropriation ran low this
boy became one of band of the finest
