House, with an added amendment re
quiring the cultivation of one six

the second year of residence and one
eighth of the area the third year, be
fore making final roof. The essen
tial features of the Senate and House
bills are retained.
The homestead period Is reduced
from five to three years and home
steaders are permitted to be absent
from their land not to exceed five
months In each year after establish
ing a residence.
The three year period will begin
to run from the time of establish
ment of arutal residence upon the

able cause, a settler cannot establish
residence at the time of filing, he
may be allowed 12 months from the

Fire that started from an over
heated stove broke out Saturday
night at 11:40 in the back room at
Mendenhall’! confectionery store on
6th atreet between D and E streets
A Japanese who was passing saw
the blaze and gave an alarm and a
number of revolver shota were Bred
by other persona to aid In spreading
the alarm.
The front plate glass door was
kicked out by an early arrival at the
fire and In a few momenta, with the
aid of a hand chemical fire extin
guisher brought by Mayor Jones the
blaxe waa gotten under control.
Fire Chief Wells and the chemical
apparatus arrived soon after
the
alarm was turned in. and plenty of
chemical was thrown on the smould
ering lire to ensure safety from Us
breaking out again.
The atove from which the fire
caught was situated cloae to a pine
partition, which was covered with
asbestos, but the fire In the atove
was so hot that the partition be
came Ignited where It waa not pro
tected.
Mr. Mendenhall had been scrub
bing and cleaning up the place and
had used the stove to heat water on.
He left a ahort time before the Are
broke out. and stated he had no idea
ther waa much Ore in the stove when
he left. He estimates his loss about
360. fully covered by insurance.
Had the fire broken out half an
hour later, or not been discovered
Just aa It was starting, the chances
are that a serious conflagration
would have started endangering the
whole business section on 6th atreet
for three blocks.
Sisters Herald:
Frank Arnold,
who lives in Cloverdale, while blast*
ing rock on his farm Friday fore
noon , was blown up and badly Injur
ed about the face and head.
Mr. Arnold waa using home made
blasting powder and in loading a
hole used a crowbar to tamp the
powder into the hole. It Is the sup
position that the bar striking against
the rock caused sparks which set off
the charge of powder. Being almost
directly over it it is a miracle he waa
not instantly killed. As it was Mr.
Arnold was badly cut about the
face and eyes besides being cut and
bruised about the body.
He waa
taken to Redmond and placed under
a physician's care, who reports that
he believes he will be able to save
both of Mr. Arnold's eyea, but that
it will be some time before he will
be able to use them.
Pieces of rock were embedded la
the balls of both eyes, and Mr. Ar
nold Is certainly fortunate If he es
capes with his sight.
Mr. Arnold Is a son-in-law o f Mr.
and Mrs. Gist of the Commercial Ho
tel.

The editor of the Herald waa en
gaged in mining for a number o f
years and Is familiar with the use
and dangers of powder.

benefit of those who do not know.
