Cause Of So, 500 Fire
In Deserted Building
Here Today Mystifies

Wool waste, burlap, SackS anu
automobile trailers went up in
smoke and fire, and a building
was burned to state of worth
lessness when a blaze broke out
shortly before noon today in n
store house located on State street
between Front and Commercial,
in which goods owned by H. Stein
book and Watt Shipp were stored.
That the building is a total
wreck, but that he cannot say at
the present time whether or not
he will rebuild, were statements
of Frank Meredith, owner of the
wooden structure. Mr.. Meredith
purchased the building about
three weeks ago from the Jory es-
tate.
Origin is Mystery
What caused the fire to break
ont in the building, said to have
been unoccupied when the blaze
was first discovered by G. w. Day
is the puzzle confronting. the fire

control shortly after it had arrlN.

blaze had been reported. Two win

Crowd Gets Thrill

Young steinbock estimated tn
contents of the storehouse to b'
worth $500, and stated that tn

almost a total loss. Some msur

Ten or twelve automobile tran

The Story of London School Boy Who Stumbled
Upon the Secret of Making Dyes
from Coal Tar
(Told In Eight Sketches)
BY JOHN RAYMOND

from Coal Tar
POETS OF SCIENCE

William Henry Perkin. was an odd
sort OF youngster. When he was Is
years old and 4 student i'll the City OF
London School he heard OF a series OF
lectures on chemistry during the noon
recess, Young William Henry de-
cided that the lectures would be OF
more value to him than his lunches. so
he took in the lectures.
Apparently the lectures made a de-
cided impression upon the boy Two
years later he entered the laboratory
OF chemist named Holman in the
Royal College OF London and by the
time he was Il, had started upoa his
career as a researcher. Perkiu decided
that his mission in life was to isolate
phenenthrene from coal tar and pre-
pare artificial Quinine In order to
speed the day when his task would be
done he set up private laboratory and
worked overtime While at work in
this laboratory IN the spring OF 1880.
he found in his test tube, while oxi-
dizing some anilinc oil, a black. sticky
mass instead OF clear crystals. He at
tempted to wash il out with alcohol
when, TO his surprise. he produced a
wonderful purple Solutlon-mauve, the
FIRST OF the aniline dyes
Ten years later Perkin achieved his
greatest triumph when he produced
alizarin. or Turkey red. formerly
made only from the root OF the mad
der. Years later the British govern
ment knigh,ed the man who first dis
covered the vast possibilities contained
with coal tar but gave him little imam
cial support or encouragement. II

truth, however. until the World War
offered convincing proof by opening

eyes, but unfortunately, Germany had
fifty year start and took the trouble
to protect the advantage.
On January l. 1916, seven leading
