PRAIRIE FIRES,

Since our lust REPORT, business in
Prairie fires has been good. The activ-
ity, III fact, has been phenomenal and
the increase over the corresponding
period last year is fully SO per cent.
Wednesdays fire, which originated
from Il railroad engine, after burning
me valuable trees for r. II. Miller d
some hay for d.. Clippenger and Messrs.
Clark and Newton, swept in over
Worthington township into Elk and
WAS checked 10y Il change of wind.
On Thursday, al engine spark fired
the Prairie OF the east side of the rail-
road west Of town. and burned about
IS tons of hay for NV. Mcdowell.
On Friday, fire started somewhere
near Ochee Ia Lake, west side, and
swept northward, over the country
east Of East Okuhena Lake. About
20 tons of lay were burned belonging
to Peter Thompson and 100 tons
belonging to Mcssrs. Runyon & "
ncr.
Same day a fire in thu vicinity of
len hmore burned 80 to 10 tons CT hay
for n. J.. Seney and a lot of trees for
Mr.. Ludlow Oh the former Churchill
place.
On Monday last another fire broke
out west of town and destroyed Il fine
grove on D. 5. Laws place, on the Sum-
nit, ami also burned about 40 tons of
hay and a quantity Of bhclswheat for
Mr.. Lord.

The fires at Deadwood, D, T., altl at
Carroll, Iowa, which swept the towns
away, have given fair warning to other
towns to be On the alert and prepared
to defend themselves. The Sioux Falls
papers make loud calls upon the citi-
zens of that live town to organize and
be ready for the fray when it comes.
Shakopee, in this State, made a narrow
escape the other day, and other towns
are sure to get smuggling before long.
Worthington has been exceedingly
fortunate SO far. With our efficient
Waterman, Mcmillan, who sleeps the
helpless village while it sleeps,'' and
the lakes nearly surrounding the town,
we are measurably we'll protected, but
fire breaking out on windy day
would be almost certain to lay the town
in ashes. All hay, straw and rubbish
should lie cleaned up and extra care
should he taken in every direction to
prevent fires, now that the dry season
is upon us.

JUSTICES COURT,

On Thursday last Thomas Wilson, of
Dewald, was arrested OH complaint of
his wife, on "a charge of assault and
battery, and brought before Justice
Bennett. A hearing in the case was
deferred until Saturday next. Consid-
cradle interest is felt in this case as Mr..
Wilson had been married to his present
wife only about two months, and as
she is his fourth wife within the last
five or six years.
On Thursday last also, g. K. Thonp-
son, night Waterman ut the Okabena
Mills. was arrested at the instance of
Lowe s. Anderson, on Il charge Of en-
bezzling -four, and brought before JUS
tice Bennett. The evidence was Deem
ed sufficient to warrant his being held
to answer in the District Court and ac-
cordingly he was held in the sum Of
$3.50. Mr. L. being unable to obtain
bail was sent to Jail. 1t is claimed
that there are one or more parties in
volved with Mr.. T. in the taking of
flour and hopes are entertained that
they may be caught. Mr.. 4. claimed
that it was a put up job," but as some
1900 pounds were found i'll his house,
it looks bad for him. Mr.. 4. however,
claimed that he had taken quantity of
flour from Mr.. Sutton on his wages, be-
fore Mr.. 5. left the Mill.
We are sorry for Mr.. Thompson and
we hope that if there are others involv-
ed, and there seems no room to doubt it,
that they may be brought to justice.
A system of petty stealing Of hay, wood,
coal, ETC.. has been prevailing in this
community for long time, aud it. is
high time that the practice was broken
up.
On Tuesday evening a man giving
the name of Tom Ford was arrested by
Policeman Mcmillan for being drunk
and disorderly and put in the lock up
over night. Wednesday morning lie
was brought before Justice Bennett
and find So and costs.
Yesterday Ben Langdon was brought
before Justice Bennett OH Il charge Of
selling liquor to the above-namel Ford
and fined $50 and costs. Ben preferred
going to Jail to paying the fine. ~
