Even in the pineries and densely
wooded sections of Michigan and
Wisconsin there have been no such
forest fires as those reported as rag.
ing in Montana at the present time
In September, 1881, over 1000 square
miles of Michigan was burned over
and 1900 people rendered homeless
while 200 people lost their lives. The
destruction of life and property in
Montana is perhaps not SO great as
this, but the area swept by the flames
is much more extensive, being esti-
mated at from 5000 to 10000 square
miles. Eternal vigilance is the only
safeguard against these destructive
visitations.

Several Rerated Pension Cases Iden-

WASHINGTON, Special-Tbere are twenty
one cases among pension Office employees ard
a number among officials in other executive
departments which are almost identical with
the Henderson case, the decision in which
has been made public by Senator Manderson
Senator MaGderson was rerated for
pension without any knowledge on his
part and certificate for the money issued to
him. Senator Henderson doubted the valid
ity of the action of the pensio office, and
Secretary Noble in his opinion he d that
Commissioner Tanners action was without
warrant in law. Some of the officers
in the pension bureau who were re-
rated, like Senator Henderson, made no ap-
pllcations therefor, while others did, but all
of the rwenty-one cases with Deputy Com
missioner of Pensions Smith at their head
accepted the rerSting and the money which
came with it. IL is authoritatively stated
that government officials whose pensions
have been illegally rerated, and whose cases
are covered in a general way by the Mander-
son decision, Will be required TO refund the
money received as a result of rerating. In
case of refusal to refund the money, their reg
u!ar pension money and salary will be with
held until all the money is recovered. Of

meut service, steps will be at once taken to

A LINEMAN'S FATE.
Burned to Death in Midair by an
Electric Light Wire.

New YORK Special-An electric lineman
met with horrible death at the corner of
Center and Chambers street, from
contact with an electric light wire. He was
employed by the Western Union company,
and presented terrible sight as he died on
the net work of wires in midair. The mans
face was turned toward the walk. The wire
in fifteen minutes had burned off half the
face of the victim. The left arm was
also seen to be burning and every
few seconds the blue flames spurted
out from the various parts OF the body.
Immediately after the accident Mayor Grant
was notified and gave orders that the wires
that caused the accident be cut at once. The
body was left on the wires for more than
haif-hour. Deputy Coroner ]. Atkins said
that the spectacle was the most chastity he
had ever seen. "The wire" he said. (which
cut through the lineman's cheek had evil
IDENTITY entered at The mouth 1t had burned
clear into the cheek bone. The burning of
the throat had severed the wiudDipe and
many muscles and veins just below the
Adams apple. If the man mad renamed
suspended IN the air much longer the head
would have been completely severed from
the body. The shock may or may not have
killed him Instantly. but it certainly rendered
him unconscious, SO that his face fell for
ward on the other wires"

Commissioner Croft Decides Pecul-
lar Land Case From Dakota.

WASHINGTON, SpeciaL-Land Commissioner
Croft has rendered u decision in the case of
May Barr, formerly Wasson, resident of
the Mitchell, S. D., land district 1t appears
from the testimony that in July, 1885, Mrs
Barr then a resident of Iowa, went TO Da-
kota on visit to friend, and while there
was informed that certain eighty acres
adjoining tract then rec .ntly entered by
Michael Barr was subject to homestead entry
She accordingly entered it, purchased small
house and had 1t moved on her claim; broke
one acre aud made other improvements. At
that time, she says in her testimony, she
had no intention of marrying Mr.. Barr, but
later they married, "when they moved the
houses up close together on the line and
sodded them uD all around on the outside,
making them one house; that Mr. Barr put
his bed, stove, table, etc, in his; and Jnat
she put bed, stove, table, etc, in hers; that
there were no means OF communicating
between the two different parts Of
the house, except by going outside,
each parG having an outside door; chat
she acted in good faith in making the entry,
not knowing Michael Barr at the time and
having no understanding that it was to be
kept in the Barr family; that she complied
with the homestead law fully" Mrs Barr's
claim is rejected on the ground that husband
and wife cannot maintain separate resi-
dences at the same time and in the same
house, SO that each by virtue of said resi-
Gence may perfect an entry under the home
stead law 1t is said that there are ! num-
Der OF cases IN the general land Office similar
in all important respects TO the case of Mrs
Barr.

LOSES THE LAND.
Decision Affecting Claims in the
Crook ston Land District.

Crooks kStOn Land District.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Special telegram
Secretary Noble decided q Minnesota case
which affects several claims in the
Crookston land district and involves pine
lands owned by the Clearwater Land and
Lumber company. The land is In section 33
town 147, range 3S, in the heavy timber
belt 1t was taken as 4 pre-emption by
Hans Hanson. A special agent of the land
proof. The claimant asked for q hearing
and the local office decided in his favor. The
general land office reviewed the decision
and held the entry for cancellation. The
secretary finds that the entryman was
one of q party consisting OF him
self, Chris Stevenson, John Stevenson,
Elias Stevenson, Olaf Hangar, Erick
Burk, Funston Sanum, John Nelson, 7. Ro-
department shows that these parties trans
ferred the entries made by them to some of
the Steversons, and that the SGevCrsons
| transferred the land Immediately to the
Clearwater Land and Lumber company,
which comrany included the Steversohs
The suggestion that these en- ries were made
for the benefit of the company is confirmed
by the fact that they are in the Minnesota
pineries. 1t was shown by the evidence
that the improvements were not sufic. .ent
| to constitute valid proof, and the decision of
the general land office holding the entry for
cancellation is sustained. Nearly all the
| o her entries will be decided on the same
grounds though some may be in favor of
| the claimants on account of sufficient proof,
| and as in one or two instances transfers
| were not made to the lumber company.
