FIRE CONTROLLED
QUICKLY BY DEPT.

AS a result of the explosion of a
gasoline water heater in the Gem
barber shop. Bridge and Second
streets. about 1880 o'clock yesterday
morning, the fire truck was called to
extinguish what threatened to be a
serious fire. AS it was a great deal
of damage was done, one partition
being almost completely demolished.
The flames reached the ceiling and
broke through to the flooring of the
second floor. One of the large plate
glass windows was broken and large
mirror shattered. A great deal of
equipment was ruined and the whole
place would probably have gone up in
smoke had it not been for the prompt
response of the fire boys. Chemicals
were used in extinguishing the
flames and only few minutes were
required to check what might have
caused great deal of damage to ad-
joining buildings as we'll.

of this paper. the dates became sadly
mixed, and instead of reading July 25
to 81, inclusive. as they should have
done, they set the date up to June 25
to 81. AS one of the Legion boys
pointed out, they wouldn't mind going
a month earlier, but as there are only
thirty days in June the time would be
cut short, and as this expedition is
planned to be long remembered af-
fair, every day is sure to count.

CHAMBER PROTESTS
UNFAIR R.R. RATES

On account of not enough members
being present at the regular meeting
of the Chamber of Commerce last
night, only an informal meeting was
held. The matter of roads was dis
cussed at length and it was decided
to discuss proposed Improvements
with the board of county commits
sioners at their next session.
Tickets for the Fourth of July
dance were distributed among the
members present and anyone desiring
to purchase one may do so from men,
bers or Secretary Grady.
The secretary announced receipt of
letters from Senators Oddie and Pitt
man. and Representative Arentz, en-
dorsing the action taken by the local
chamber in protesting against ex-
cessiye interstate rates, and pledging
support in every possible way. The
letters were In response to the fol-
lowing telegram. sent several days
ago:
This Chamber of Commerce most
vigorously protests against proposed
modification In transcontinental
freight rates on ground that same are
discriminatory against industries in
this section and throughout the inter
mountain country and will utterly de
moralize business here. We urge that
you exert every possible influence to
prevent approval of this schedule BY

less proportionate rates are applied
to intermediate points. We have re-
quested thorough investigation and
hearings in intermountain country BY

A similar telegram was sent to the
Interstate Commerce Commission. II
has been announced since. however
that the matter of rates has not yet
been laid before the commission by
the railroads.

SNOW DID DAMAGE
TO PARADISE CROPS

A letter received here from Thomas
Dooley, written at his ranch near
Paradise Valley, informs that there
were nine inches of snow at his ranch
house Thursday morning and at a
camp where Dooley has a fence gang
of ten men working, five miles north
of the ranch, eleven inches of snow
covered the ground before the storm
ended. The storm, Dooley said, was
as severe as any during midwinter.
The storm will result in a big loss
to ranchers in his section, Dooley
says, as hay was so nearly ready to
be cut. The heavy, wet snow fiat
tened it to the ground. In addition
to the loss of hay, Dooley says, big
damage has resulted to early grain,
1t being so late In the season 1t will
not start up again.
Such heavy snowstorm has never
before been seen in his section of the
country. he said. The Dooley ranch Is
six miles north of Paradise, in the
upper end of the valley.
Dooley believes that in addition to
fattening the hay to the ground, pro-
hibiting cutting. the wet snow will
be very likely to make a great rush
of high water and perhaps cause
food.

CUTS THROAT WHILE
PLAYING IN SNOW

One of the most terrible accidents
which have occurred In this section
OF the country for many years took
place at Paradise last Thursday morn
ing, when Miss Eva Laud, reported to
have been a school teacher at that
place, while playing in the snow with
friends, slipped and fell, cutting her
throat In falling through glass door.
As near as can be learned, Miss
Laud had not been in Paradise long,
having recently arrived from Lyons,
Kansas. The snow storm, which was
quite heavy in that district, was a
matter of great interest to her, and
she had gone to get films for a camera
with which to take pictures of the un-
usual storm.
The accident occurred at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. N. A. Gillian, in
Main street. where Miss Laud and
friends engaged in snow battle. In
running away from someone trying
to wash her face with snow, the girl
slipped, thrusting her hand through a
glass door, and fell with her head in
the hole thus made.
Her jugular vein and the carotid
artery were severed and on account of
the great stream of blood flowing from
the wound thus made she lived only
a few hours, in spite of the efforts
made by DIR. Webster. who was called
Immediately. and OF friends, to re-
vie her. 1t is reported that after re-
ceiying the wound she attempted to
walk. thus weakening her system all
the more.
Help was sent for from this city,
and Rudolph Schwartz and b. f. Stan
ley made the trip here in rec
ord time. taking Dr. Pope back with
them, arriving in Paradise about 5
O'Clock Thursday evening. But the
young lady had passed away before
they got there. The telephone wires

disc. thus making 1t impossible to
summon help by phone. The wires
are still down today. making II i'm
possible to secure first-hand informa-
tion concerning the accident 1t was
necessary for c. p Hoslins OF this
city TO drive to Paradise today with
kilograms from relatives advising as
to the disposition of the body.
AS nearly as can be learned, Miss
Laud was about twenty years Of age.
and was staying in the valley with
Mr.. and Mrs. A. c. Burge.
The remains were brought to this
city yesterday by Undertaken Perry
Carlson. and prepared for burial. So
far as can be learned relatives reside
In Massachusetts and Kansas. Word
was received here this morning re-
questing that the body be shipped TO
Lyons. Kansas, where the funeral will
probably be held.

COMMUNITY SINGING

Citizens who happened to be around
the Southern Pacific depot about nine
o'clock this morning enjoyed a con-
cert put on by bunch of about fifteen
hoboes who were congregated there
waiting for the first convenient freight
to take them out of town. One man
said that there was nothing on the
Chautauqua program here which came
up to it in both volume and music.
