HOPKINS RESIDENCE DESTROYED BY FIRE
 EARLY LAST NIGHT

Fire, from an undetermined cause, completed gutted the inf terior of the home of Mr. and Mrs Leonard Hopkins, on Third Ave- nue, shortly after o'clock last evening. The exterior suffered considers hle damage, also.
 Boys first turned the alarm in when they noticed what was at first chimney blaze, two others were sent in to the fire depart ment which turned to and were at the scene within a few mo- ments; L. V. Ray, Martin Lanning and other citizens were already on the job and had water turned on through the hose dragged from the auxiliary hose house which has stood for years to one side of the dwelling.
 { The fire was a roaring inferno so quickly had it spread and it required the hardest kind of eff fort, on the part of the firemen, to bring it under control; an hour passed before the last vistage of spark disappeared and proba- bly, two hours before wisps of smoke were subdued. The fire- men. most of whom were dressed for the social at the S. Al C. hall where a throng had just begun to gather, were sopping wet from their feet to the top of their heads and without a doubt most of their garments must have been ruined
 1 The hundreds of gallons of water poured into the rooms was absolutely necessary in order to save the house; little chance pre- sented itself for the use of chem icals. And, as a result of the wat CT, practically everything in the once lovely little home, was des- troyed. A few clothes and an item or two of house-furnishings such as silver-ware and disher were sav- ed.
 MT. and Mrs Hopkins were both at the s. A. C card party when they were informed of the fire. Strange as it may appear, there was no fire in either of the two stoves upon their departure which bears out the most often { expressed opinion that defective electric wiring was responsible { for the fire; and in addition, the smoke-stack is of brick. !, It is estimated that the insur- ance on the house, $1,5O0, will just about cover the repair charge with the contents a total loss
 The Hopkins remained over- night at the home of friends and today moved into an apartment in the Arcade Apartments

Furnish As You Go

Another advantage Of this plan
of furnishing is that which con-
Germs the pocketbook. You can
start your room with "a bed, a
mirror and a chest Of drawers
and after every succeeding birth
day and Christmas you can apply
those jolly little checks that you
find under your plate in acquir-
ing additional lovely pieces.
This also makes the fun of
furnishing last longer and trains
ones taste. After having lived
with the bed and one or two other
bits one knows SO much better
just the things one wants to 20
with them.
For this gradual furnishing of
the bedroom, beds by Simmons are
particularly well adapted. For
Simmons makes a great many
models-scores of designs and
color combinations-as adapt
able as the dandelion.
You can fit them in with Colo
NAL furniture, Jacobean, Queen

charming effects.

the Mutual Orange Distributors Of
California.
This week they addressed the fol-
lowing letter to their agents in
Texas. who in turn passed the mes
sage along TO their customers:
With reference 10 the Texas Cit
rus law which provides for the reg
istration OF all distributors and
jobbing houses that handel citrus
fruits and provides also that all
citrus fruits offered for sale be-
tween the dates of September / and
December IS. both dates being in
elusive. shall be accompanied by a
stamp ~evidcncing the maturity OF
the fruit and payment OF a box tax
of 2l-2c. please be advised that the
citrus fruit shipped by the Mutual
Orange Distributors to Texas. is to
be considered interstate commerce
until ownership OF the fruit passes
to the customer. The responsibility
Cor seeing that the stamp Is affixed
shall rest with the iobber or pur-
chaser and must be at his expense.
1t Is up to the purchaser 10 assure
himself that the fruit viii pass state
inspection and meet the require
ments OF the Texas Law. IL Is not
our policy 10 ship TO Texas any
thing that In our Judgment will not
meet Texas requirements. never.h-
less the responsibility rests with the
Texas authorities and you as our
agents will therefore caution pros
pective purchasers that they must
assure themselves that the fruit
meets the Texas requirements. In
other words. we cannot assume any
responsibility for fruit failing TO
meet the Texas requlreme Is and
since any car becomes the property
OF the purchaser as soon as lie
bulk Is broken we will not assume
any responsibility whatever for
for trouble that may arise after
sales have been consummatec."
The intent Of the law as designed
was that the shipper would be re-
Quired 10 pay the tax. which viii
average TO around $40 per car. or
21-2c per box. The sugar content
under the Texas law Is said "a be 2
