Ore., July 21 Tirgii Fuwence, 7-year-old son of Ernest Purvance, wa burned to death t Bonita postoffiee last night Bonita post office i better known as : warehouse, and the building that burned was an old log house, which ha for years been used as a stopping place and roadhouse for travelers going to the Bohemia mine. The postoffiee building, which was a more recent addition to the old building was also burned, but by hard work the stable, warehouses and scale were saved. The electrical generating plant of the Oregon Securities Company, of which Mr. Purvance has charge, are sit uated at this point. As nearly as can be learned, every-one had gone to the power-house to watch the men putting on the big belt that transmit power from the water wheel to a big dynamo. About 10 o'clock their grandmother took two little boys over to the house, and put Virgil, the older to bed upstairs in the log building, and the younger to bed in the postoflice building. When the fire was discovered it was already too late to save Virgil but his brother wis taken safely from the adjoining building. About one year ago Virgil was visit ing with his aunt, when bis little cousin was burned to death in a brush fire.

SAX FRANCISCO, July 21 (SpeeiaU4cpta!n v Jame Bir mingham, supervising inspector, has revoked the decision of the local inspectors at Portland. Ore, who suspended for one year the mariner's license of Captain Samuel BoninVld of the steamer B. J. Stetson in collision with the barkentine Jane L. Stanford off the Columbia River, June 12th. Captain Bermingham says Cap tain Bonifield was not on deck at the time of the collision, and therefore could not be suspended for lack of skill or negligence in handling bis vessel. Ilowever, he blames Boiufleld for not slowing up after the collision and ascer taining how badly the Jane L. Stanford was damaged. At the end of her up trip Friday night the big 0. R. 4 X. steamer. T. J. Potter, met with an accident that will compel her to stay in the boneyard for the balance of the season. She blew out her port cylinder head at the Ash-street dock while making her landing there. There were many reservation on her passenger list for the bjg Saturday ex cursion to the northshore beaches; and the money paid therefore was turned to rail transportation via the "A. 4 C." as (aivas Astoria, from whence her pas sengers were transferred to Hwaco by the steamers Xahcotta and Melville. Xo definite arrangements have been made yet for a substitute steamer; and the beach travel will present a hard puzzle for the 0. R. 4'X. people to solve. It is said she was duly inspected the day before the accident occurred, but this cannot be verified.
