MISsISSTPPI'S SOURCE.
Discovery CT the Real Fountain Head
Ofthc River.

Professor j. '. Bro-yer and a party Of
surveyors, who have been at work the past
four months under commission of the
Minnesota Historical Society locating the
true source of the Mississippi River, have re-
ported that they have made complete
measurements Of the region and settled for
all time the true source of the Father of
Waters.
They conclude that neither Lake Itaska,
Elk Lake, the lakes named after NicOllet,
nor even Whipple Lake are entitled to the
distinction of being regarded as the head of
the great river. Following the principal
stream and tracing it through all the small
lakes it leads directly TO two lakes at the
end of the basin, which are the real source Of
the Mississippi.
These lakes, one considerably larger than
the other, are one hundred feet above the
elevation Of 1tasca Lake, and bac4i Of them
is the rim of the basin, composed of hills
ranging from sixty to ninety feet in height
above the surface of these lakes. The two
lakes crown the supreme height of the whole
basin. From that point the entire basin grad
ually SLOPES down TO the level of Itasca.
1t was the opinion openly and freely ex-
pressed of all the members of Mr. Brewers
party that in these lakes the Mississippi has
its source. There is nothing beyond them,
and the more SOutherl y one IS at the base OF
an abrupt ridge many feet high, though itself
on the top Of hill more than one hundred
feet above Itasca.
This body of water is larger than Elk
Lake and after q careful examination of the
surrounding country every man in tie party
agreed that the reservoir of water entering
1taSca Lake is on the top Of that hill
From the top Of the hill falls a spring fif-
teen hundred feet IN length, and springs are
found like regular steps down the incline.
The twin lakes are on the same level, and a
man can stand on the hill dividing the two
and cast stone into the waters On each side
ctr
some lakes, containing many islands. The
water is of extraordinary depth.

Five Persons Perish in Flames at

Tive persons were burned to death at fire
in Westchester Village, n. Y, carly in the
morning.
The residents were awakened from sleep by
the changing of fire bells. 1t was learned that
the house occupied by Watson Bovine and his
family had caught fire from some unknown
cause. When the hose company arrived tho
fire had already gained considerable headway
1t spread rapidly, and within half an hour
after being discovered the building was en-
tirely enveloped.
1t was known thai the mother of Mr.
Bovine, Rebecca Bovine, aged sixty, Cath
crime Watson Bovine, aged six. and Ellen
Margaret Bovine, aged four and q half, his
children were in the burning building.
Frantic efforts were made to rescue them, but
without avail.
The flames shut off any approach to the
building and rendered an attempt at rescue
impracticable. After the fire had been sub
dued the bodies were recovered They were
charred and blackened but recognizable
Two servant girls Catherine Dunn, aged
eighteen, and Mary Dunn, her sister aged ten,
also persisted.
The entire population of the village turned
out to see the fire and the utmost excitement
prevailed Mr.. Bovine was almost frantic
when he discovered that his children and
mother had not left the burning building. Ii
was absolutely impossible to do anything for
them, as the house was mass Of fame and

IN the state. This is an emancipation from the
conventional trammels of sex, and no mistake
The young ladies who practice boxing, fencing
and bicycle-riding for exercise will have to
step to the rear when tested by the new stand
ard, for their accomplishments are purely per-
sonal and unrelated, while those of the Brighton
Blues have a semi-public character. The
Staten Islanders have chosen a form of amuse-
ment which is, at least in appearance, of poten-
tial value to society. How useful they might
be as defenders of their town in certain martial
emergencies could not be judged withou: e1-
pertinent, but the presumption is fair that a
woman who knows how TO be q soldier would at
least be worth as much as one who doesn't.
