FIRE MENACES
POULTRY
STOCK
Firemen Garry to Safety
Dozens of Crates Of
Live Fowl.

A bedlam Of cackling and crow
ing greeted firemen who last night
were c allied to fight a blaze in the
store OF John H. Kiester, 20S Tenth
street northwest, and the Manassas
Produce Company, 207 Tenth street.
Deviating from their usual task
of life saving. firemen carried to
safety dozens of crates of gobblers
and chickens, stored in the produce
house. The dozen calves, fenced
off for a time from the firefighters
by wall of smoke. stampeded in
their pen until the flames were ex-
tinguished.
Fire in the store was caused by
an overheated oil stove, it was said.
Eating its way to a partition, the
fire enveloped the first floor and
the Manassas Produce Company.
John Everett, night Waterman,
turned in an alarm. When Deputy
Chief Sullivan arrived he pulled a
second.
Considerable damage was done in
Kiester's store. No official esti-
mate could be obtained. Fire
Marshall Sieb said the loss would
not exceed $4,000 probably.

QUARREL OVER
WIFE CAUSE
Of Staying
Common Law Spouse Held
as Accessory Says shockey
Refused to Wed, Her.

HAGERSTOWN, Md, March &c.
That Jacob Shockey, the thirty-two-
year-old world war veteran, who was
shot and killed by his brother. Sam
uel Shockey, after a fight, near
Beartown. last week. over Miss Iva
Wills, the common-law wife Of the
slain man, had promised repeatedly
to marry the woman and failed each
time, was the burden of complaint of
Miss Wills from behind the bars Of
her cell in the Jail at Chambersburg,
where she and her paramour are
being held for trial.
Miss Wills said she first met
Shockey when he was an orderly for
the commandant of the Tenth United
States Cavalry at Columbus, Ohio,
and that she lived with him as his
wife although they were not mar
ried. After being discharged from
the army, Shockey joined the State
constabulary force Of Michigan I'M
der an assumed name. He sent for
her, she said, saying he would marry
her. She Joined Shockey in Michi-
gan but he again failed to keep his
promise. Wnen Shockey returned
to his home at Beartown in the
mountains she came with him.
No formal petition has been made
to the court for the appointment of
counsel to defend Samuel Shockey,
who is charged with murder, and
Miss Wills, as an accessory. A re-
quest for the appointment Of former
State Senator John w. Hoke to
serve as counsel for Shockey and the
woman will probably be acted upon
by Judge Rush Gillian, who will hear
the case. The couple, it is expected,
will be given a preliminary hearing
this week.
The entire community Of Bear.
town attended the funeral of the
victim Of the tragedy which was
held at the little mountain church
at Beartown Sunday afternoon. Rev.
F. A. Cook, who officiated, preached
on 1.-THE Wages of Sin Is Death"

NEW ARMS CONFERENCE
USELESS, SAYS COOLIDGE

President Coolidge has no intention
of complying with the request Con.
gress inserted in the Navy bill that
a new international conference he
called to limit armament, it was
stated at the White House today.
Conditions in Europe are such, in
the Presidents belief, as to make
such Il conference hopeless 1T the

This government, however, stands
willing to initiate conference when
the time is "propitious."

CANNOT ACCOUNT FOR HONOR
and Platinum cross From Rumanian Legation.

To be the possessor of a war cross from a foreign government and yet unable to determine why he should be the recipient of the honor, Is the pe- culiar plight of Ira H. Burke, Kansas Legionnaire. Recently Burke received a package from the Rumanian legation at Washington containing the insignia cross of the Star of Rumania, caJt in white gold and platinum, and a royal brevet on heavy parchment, bear Ing the signature and seal of the Ru- manian king. An accompanying let ter explained that he had been made a knight of the order by King Ferdi- nand. Burke served as captain in the Forty-fifth infantry overseas, but can not remember when he ever came in contact with any Rumanian nor of anything he has done to deserve the decoration. Having been 50 far un- able to find anyone who can read the Rumanian language, he is still at sea sbout the matter

MORE OR LESS TRUE

Every man needs wife-to blame his mistakes on.
 Women don't think less of clothes they only wear less of 'em.
 You can't make the fellow who Is busted believe there Is no such thing as he'll
 A fellow falls in love with a girl and after he marries her he falls out with her.
 Everything Is high these days, ex- cept skirts and necks, and they have come down.
 No man can be so good that he cant have enemies, but at least he can be so mean that he can escape having friends.
 We can't think of anybody whom we think could be in more need of double pay than the bird who lives a double life.
 The reason a gossip never believes in sticking to facts is because It will spoil her choice bit of scandal.-Sam Hill in Cincinnati Enquirer.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1924-04-03
FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW

Whatever is popular deserves atten-
 Envious ambition never slakes her thirst.
 Test the Ice before you venture upon it.
 In the entire universe, the least Is 6 part of all.
 Simplicity enters largely into the beauty of holiness.
 Compel the world to value you at what you are worth.
 Nothing Is pleasant that Is not spiced with variety.
 Never seek to know your friends secrets and never reveal your own.
 Truth needs not many words. but a false tale requires large preamble. Two things a man should never be angry at-what he can help and what he cannot help.
 Unpopularity or popularity Is utter ly worthless as test of manhood's worth.
 The tallest trees are most In the power of the winds. and ambitious men. of the blasts of fortune.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1924-04-03
WISELY SAID

From people who are fond of us. fattery is sweet.
 People who live in glass houses learn to pose all the time.
 To make both ends meet, do a good deal of stretching in between.
 Take care of this world properly and the next world will take care of 1t, self.
 In mems fashions everything has to ask, Is 1t comfortablef before It asks. Is 1t stylish?
 Does the old-fashioned woman who sang at her washtub now turn on the graphophone?
 Did you have bad luck yesterday? Perhaps finishing 1t alive was your good luck. Be thankful.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1924-04-03
A FEW THOUGHTS
By Buck Camphell.

By Buck Campbell.
 Many man has to die to
 , have bouquets thrown at him. The fish that gets away al
 ways looks larger than the ones that you land. Boosters will never replace
 out and turn off a rooster and go back to sleep. Factionalism is not alone con
 fined to political parties; they , have Ii In the church and school
 and town affairs as well.
 The busy man doesn't figure much in the police court news. 4 spit ball is said to be m
 sanitary because 1t knocks the
 batter out. Majorities may not always do right, but they get the benefit of the doubt.
 The quickest and surest way to make an enemy of some men is to outdo them in anything.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1924-04-03
CRUMBS FROM A CYMlC

Goodness is the only investment that never fails.
 Hurt no others with that which pains yourself.
 The serpent in ourselves Is the snake that stings us.
 Pluck is always trying to forget thai 1t was beaten yesterday.

21.-The gypsy tribes throughout
Bulgaria held their annual con-
vention here the other day. To
the question: "What is the le-
lgion of the gipsies,' they replied
by holding memorial services for
their soldiers fallend during the
wars according TO the Mohamme-
dan rite, under the ministration of
Dervish Afud Bada a gypsy priest
who came from Constantinople for
the occasion.
There was swarm of trousered
women and girls, dressed in bright
colors, and the men wore embroid-
cred wooden clothes made of home
spun. Most of the gipsies are tin
smiths, blacksmiths or horse deal
ers. One of the tribal ceremonies
carried out was the taking of the
oath of fealty by the numerous an
prentices, who kissed their masters
hand in token of obedience.
