They were more Intent on stopping ths' spread of the flames than on taking out tha joss, and had it not been for three cf the priests, who carried the Imago to a place of safety, a part of the Chinese popula tion would this mornlng.be hunting a new god. "....' Much of the temple was . badly dam aged, ths costly draperies and trappings being destroyed by the nre, aa welt as many of ths gifts regularly offered to the divinity. ...''-. This fir, the same one which nearly caused a stampede at the Baker the atre on the Third street side of the same block, was as ugly a ons as the firemen have been- called upon to com bat for some time. Jack Bird, a hoseman on Engine No. 4, owes his life to ths persistency of his comrades in smashing down a door, behind which he was a prisoner. Under Doctor's Care. -. Last night Bird was under ths csrs of a doctor, slowly recovering from tha effects of tha dense smoke which had poured into his lungs for several min utes. Otherwise he was not Injured. When the firemen found the flre-they were forced to crawl ou( over . .wire covered skylights. . Ths smoke was pouring upon them, which was reeking with a concentration of all the odors of Chinatown. Every man who had ' to Inhale It had a headache last evening. Bird entered ons room alone. Mean while the Ore was burning brightly. It burned .through a beam almost directly over his head and this - in falling se curely closed the door against him. He knew that his disappearance would soon be discovered, and it was useless - to work In the thick smoke againat such odds. Finally several of the other mem bers of; his company cut their way through the door. Bird was sitting on the floor, his' head between his knees, almost unconscious. He was carried out and laid upon- a chemical' engine, which took him to the engine house. The loss by. the Ore, whose origin Is hard to Jenrn. will amount to several hundred . dollars. v It was almost 1 en tirely confined to . buildings occupied by Chinese, and - facing Second . streets The Blng (Jboong company, root med icine dealers, occupies 193 Second street, whero the firo started, . that he the effect of tho heat quite aiblt.

Ths stolen animals are said to be the property of ranch men of southern portionsJfJtho county. 8tockmen say that the horse thieves have been operating on the Montana Idaho divide, from which plaoe these horses were stolen for years on a whole sale scale. - They estimate that thou sands of horses have been driven from this rsnge Into Idaho and shipped from points on ths Short Line to eastern mar kets. , The stockmen have made ' continued organised efforts to apprehend and pun ish the ruatlera, but with little success.
