COAL OIL STOVE EXPLODES

The Mason County News says: Just
as we go to press a fire alarm was
sent in from the Kidwell residence on
Market street.
Mrs. Kidwell had lighted her oil
stove and had gone to the butcher
shop to procure meat for dinner. When
she returned the flame was soaring
high above the stove and in her ex-
element threw water on 1t which of
course made the blaze spread more
rapidly. She rushed in the yard
screaming and a Minerva farmer just
passing on wagon was the first to
the firing stove and succeeded in drag
cling 1t into the yard without being
burned.
The woodwork behind where the
stove stood was charred some which
was about the only damage done,
Both gasoline and oil stoves are
dangerous and should be watched at
all times when in operation. Had
Mrs. Kidwell remained away longer a
disastrous fire would undoubtedly
have resulted.

 The French delegation early ad- vanced this claim, which was at first rejected by the supreme coun- cil. The persistent advancing of the claim, leading to close investi- gation, is believed 10 have now proved its feasibility

DRAGL|NE ID BE
 PUT IN SHAPE 10
 COMMENCE WORK

Oscar Sander, drageline operator, and William Arthur, lidgerwood engineer, went out to camp l5 yes terday for the purpose Of putting the finishing touches to the repairs and overhauliHg on the dragline excavator, and to get the big ma chine in shape for an early com mencement of operations.
 The dragline excavator is at pres ent on a very extensive gravel bed hear old camp 15, situated about IS miles from town. Camp 15 is now the headquarters of section No. ?.
 It is expected that a continuance Of the present bright sunshiny will, in all probability, make it possible to undertake the com pletion of the fill along the water front, for which a large quantity of gravel will be required.
 Everything necessary to be done on the dragline excavator will be finished and the machine rendered capable of going into action imme- diately.
 The work to be done consists in babbitting some of the bearings and getting the running gear in work ing shape. It is expected that this work will occupy Oscar Sander and his assistants from ten days to two weeks, at the end of which time it is just barely possible that the gravel bed will have thawed put sufficiently to permit of oper- ating the big machine.
 The chances are in favor of such an occurrence, as the gravel bed is not sheltered in any way by the woods and its whole surface is open to the suns action.

KOREANS APPEAL
 10 CONFERENCE

I PARIS, Apr. 3-Kinsio Kimo, who is representing the Korean Young Mems Society, is in this city now.
 He will ask the Inter-Allied Peace Confernece for Korea's independ- ence, under the self determination clause which was enunciated by President Wilson and accepted by the great nations as the base on which the peace structure is to be built.
 It is understood that Korea's ap- peal to the peace conference will represent the desires of the entire Korean nation, as manifested by the present widespread passive re- sistance movement, inaugurated in Korea some little time ago.
 Kinsio Kimo will recite before the conference the alleged injustice and unpopularity of Japanese rule, and will tell them of the harshness of the measures adopted by Japan to repress the national movement for liberation from the Japanese yoke.
