In these con flagrationa tbe annual loaa of life It 1500, with 6000 Injured. To tbe loaa most be added tbe higher coat In thia cot off wltb J200.00U. Even tbe rich El rUNISnMENT. A great painting.

Tbe aecond wife waa ambltloua so cially and hoped to be a leading fac tor In high life, but Cblcagw society deliberately anubbed and repulsed ber. She persuaded ber husband to move to New York. Yerkea ballt a mansion there.' but tbe social doore would not open to the gxldeo key. Disillusioned, embittered. Mra. Yerkea abut herself np In the Fifth avenue palace. Yerkea sold hit Chicago .boldlnga and went to London, where he made more millions In traction. Hit wife made a third essay to' enter society. bat in London, at In America, the wat turned down by tbe amart set. There wts domestic difficulty, and tbe came back lo New York. Then Yerkea returned to New York, where be died In great agony at a fashionable hotel. Mra. Yerkea.,vialt ed him only once during hit Illness, a few boors before bit death. Tbe atory la told that Yerkea died alone, bit Iwdy being dumped Into a big laundry basket and taken by a freight elevator down to the under taker'a wagon.' ADd tbe widow?

At least four-fifth i. aa compared with fire damages In the leading countries of Europe. Tbe per capita lost In Italy It 12 cents, or only one-twentieth of that In tbe United States.

It needs a trumpet can to wake np the American people on thia subject aaya the St Louis Globe-Democrat If Secretary Fisher can do It tbe achievement will be held In lasting remembrance. There it ttartllng reck lessness in materials of construction and lax metboda of inspection. Frame buildinga are the leading cause of American fires, but defective chim neys, heating, lightning, matches, sparks and explosions figure largely in tbe waste. About one-fourth of the Area are laid to "cautea un known." A new American town, es pecially in the mining regions, It ex pected to burn, and seldom escapee art gallery In tbe Yerkea palace was left to tbe city. And for years tbe widow spent money and energy trying to get ber legal rights. 4 . . Meantime the married "for love" a young man named Mlxner. They lived together only one week.

Baltimore K)R years people hire been inclined to look npon the south as the -poor relation" in the family of states. FEW OP THEM HAVE EVER YET REALLY WAKED UP TO THE REAL TRUTH THAT THE SOUTH IA THE Ml. TIONt BIGGEST ASSET. It is to the south' that the nation is compelled to look for the fire tundred million dollars which southern cotton annually brings ns from Europe. . , - But that is onlj a SMALL FACTOR in the sooth's importance. Sne cotton crop in its raw state, seed included, is worth nearly one trillion dollars s year, while almost as much more is added to this value by that part of the crop manufactured in thia country and the utiliza tion of seed in eight hundred cottonseed oil mills.
