AID FROM ST. PAUL.
Meantime kilograms to St Paul and
minneapolis had been flying thick and
fast appealing for help. As stated in yes
terday's DISPATCH, on receipt of this ap-
peal, Mayor Maxfeld promptly sent the
steamer AIinnehaha on special train,
accompanied by Thomas Cochran, .Jr. and
L. E. Reed, Esq, who had large
interests at stake in the endangered prop
erty. In just 81 minutes from the time of
leaving st. Paul, the IS miles to Anoka
had been traversed, and in two minutes
more the gallant Minnehaha chad a stream
on,'' and from that moment victory began
to perch upon the banners of the fire
lighters.
THE FLAMES SUBDUED.
The Minnehaha arrived at 4:3j and by
half past seven the ire had been nearly ex-
tinguished But the smouldering flames
burst forth in spots all the evening and
required constant diligence to prevent adj
ditional damage. until late in the night
the welcome rain came down and stopped
further progress Fortunately the main
portion Of the town lay to the rear of the
flames in the direction from which the
wind came and it was thus saved from a
wide spread disaster.
THE LOSSES.
The loss by the fire, SO far as it can be
estimated at this writing is three million
feet of lumber belonging to the Wash
burn mill, q little over two million feet be-
longing to the Anoka mill, fifteen Or six
teen small dwelling houses, numerous
sheds. Offices, out houses, etc. Also
about 500 feet Of the main track of the ST.
Paul and Pacific railroad was destroyed by
the burning Of ties Fortunately no cars
were burned and the large railroad brid &c
as we'll as the mills of the Anoka Lumber
Co., the St. Paul Lumber Co., etc., es-
capped.

Is notorious fact. 1t is therefore of vital
Importance to check maladies in their
birth, ere they have chance to develop
other and more dangerous disorders. AS
a means of checking complaints which,
if allowed to proceed, finally disorder
the entire system, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is medicine the use of which
cannot be too strongly urged upon the
sick and feeble. The functions are regu.
lated by it, it insures the acquisition Of
yigor to the debilitated, audit substitutes
a cheerful condition of mind for gloom
and dependency. Dyspepsia, constipa'
ton, liver complaint, and kidney and
bladder troubles yield to its remedial In
fuence; it counteracts tendency to govt
and rheumatism, and 'invigorates the
nervous. Moreover, it is derived from
purely botanical sources, and in this, as
in every other respect, is superior to the
mineral remedies of the pharmacop@ia.

MAYOR WINTERS PICNIC.
It Will Take Place on Thursday Next
Without Fail.

Mayor Winter desires Us to say to the
citizens of Cairo aud to the public along
the river points that was DESTROYS of join,
ing him in his trip to Lawton's Bluff, up
Tennessee river, that unavoidable accl,
dents caused the postponement OF the
same. At last the river has become so
low it is impossible for the Eckert or
any other comeatable boat large
enough to carry such large excursion
over the grand chain ofroCks in the Ohio
river above Caledonia. Hence he Will,
on account of the lateness OF the season,
be compelled 10 abandon the above
named excursion till next season, for
which he is sorry.
In place OF the above named excursion
he will, under the same management,
give one on Sept. 20, from Mound City,
to Hickman, Ky, to which he invites all
his friends and those wishing to unite
with him, promising them just as pleas
ant a trip as the previous one advertised.
For particulars see small bills.
To the citizens of Paducah he desires
to say that, although having been com
PEELED to abandon his Tennessee river
excursion that if the water will permit
during the Paducah fair, he will get VI
an excursion that will amount to fully
1000 people, which will make up fol
their previous disappointment. IL
