FIRE DESTROYS
CENSUS RECORDS

Washington, Jan. 1O.--Priceless CEN
sus records, dating back to 1890,
when the first enumeration of the
United States was taken, were de-
stroyed tonight in fire of unknown
origin at the Department of Com
merce. The records also include fig
ures from every census up to the
present one and officials said that
1t would be days before even an es-
innate OF the damage could be given.
The blaze originated in the base
ment of the Commerce building and
five alarms quickly brought every
piece of apparatus in downtown
Washington to the scene and more
than twenty lines Of hoes completed
the damage done to the records by
pouring tons Of water through win
dows into vaults where the records
were kept.
During the two and a half hours
which fircmen fought the blaze three
firemen were overcome by smoke and
taken to the hospital. Among then

was Frank Newman, recipient Of the
1920 bravery medal.
L. j. Fitzgerald, chief clerk Of the
census bureau, said that the actual
fire loss was very slight, but "the
records destroyed could not be re-
placed If we had the entire wealth
of the United States at our disposal.
Officials said that it was probably
the most disastrous loss of records
the government has ever sustained,

Miners Shampoo Good for $1O in Dust, While Cyanide Bath Was Mint-Prospector Returns to College
 Town With Suit Case of Gold.

Chicago, Sept. 21-Max Be1ke Evanston barber. who a decade ago held forth opposite the campus of the Northwestern University, returned home yesterday a wealthy man. He carried a suitcase loaded with gold and his raiment radiated wealth. His story of how he set forth to invade Alaska after selling his barber shop reads like a romance.
 'tIt was thirteen years ago that I left Evanston for the Klondike,' said Be1ke- "I traded my razor for pick and pan and started on my search for gold. It was hard work. I got a little mine and washed the gravel in the creek for three years. Once I thought I had found a nugget, but it turned out to be a Bryan button of the 1896 campaign. I banned enough dirt to fill Lake Michigan, but never got a spot of color.
 At the end of the third year I was flat A bunch of the boys were whoop- ing it up in the Malemute saloon when the great idea occurred me. If I had failed to mine in the mines there might be a chance left in the mining of the miners. I started a shampoo parlor, and my success dates from that moment.

 The sp1endor of the millinery does not surpass the fine line of coats and suits and dresses which is carried. The larger part of the early fall styles are divided into two classes, the strictly tailored models and the heavily embroidered and trimmed clothes. Most of the garments are made with straight line effect. A full line of furs is one of the innovations in the stock for the fall showing
