Fifteen Burned To Death at
 Klamath Falls
Mother Throws Two Day Old Baby From Window

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore.,- - Nine bodies have been taken from the ruins of the Houston opera house and other buildings which were destroyed by fire Monday morning.
 Police and fire department off, cials are certain that at least 15 persons were burned to death. Some say that the list will be greater than that, owing to the large number of strangers who are in the city for the Labor Day celebration.
 The origin of the fire is un- known. Two entire city blocks were destroyed.
 The bodies recovered were talk en from the ruins of a hotel.
 Mrs. Mary Campora, to whom a baby girl was born two days be- fore the fire, threw the infant from a window into the arms of spectators while the building which she was in was burning. She then jumped herself. The baby was uninjured, but the mother is in serious condition.

American Arctic Argosy Brings Back
 Romantic Era

General Ashton of Tacoma re- gently outftted a schooner and financed an expedition into the interior of Siberia to vast region far above the arctic circle which has not been visited by fur trad. CTS since the opening of the war in 1914. It is the belief of Gen. eral Ashton that there must be a very large accumulation of furs, ivory and other valuables by this time. The schooner Iskum which was purchased for this expedition is the ship in which Peary dis covered the north pole. Four of the crew selected were with Stef- fanson in 1913. All of the crew speak the language of the Siber- ian Eskimos and have lived 10 to 20 years north of the Arctic circle. Every member of the crew is bonded, although that was not believed to be really necessary. The Iskum is now on it's way to Kolyma bay, Siberia.
 General Ashton, whose title was acquired in the National Guard several years ago, says that the Iskum is sailing with a motion picture man and a con- plete outfit aboard and that as soon as the ship returns some amazing pictures will be shown on the screens throughout the country. General Ashton believes that Tacoma will some day be the great fur exchange of the world.
 The Iskum is carrying a cargo worth approximately $50, 900. Its makeup may be interesting. There are huge stacks of hard candies, as we'll as the finest of rifles and steel traps. There are 400 mouth orgrns, 200 Jews harps and a host of other instruments of similar nature. There are 50 alarm clocks and 36 watches not all cheap ones by any means, and in addition to all this there is gaudy wearing apparel for the women folks, mirrors for Arctic beauties, and all kinds of little articles calculated to bring joy to Eskimo minds during long win ters and perpetual snow.
 Although a schooner, the Iskum is equipped with a our-cylinder Standard engine and carries 5000 gallons of gasoline. That should be enough to take her 17OO miles up the Siberian coastal rivers.

The history of the public's awaken
ing in the United States to the need
of providing special facilities for
child play Is comparatively brief
but most happy one. Children have al
ways played wherever they found
themselves and with whatever mater
ials were at hand, but 1t was not un-
til the latter part Of the nineteenth
century that it was recognized that
backyards, alleys and crowded city
streets, railroad tracks, fire escapes
and roofs were not adequate centers
for child activity. New England gen.
orally, and Massachusetts, particular
ly, has taken the leading part In this
movement.
