DArnuRx,s THREE FIRES.

Cisixens Afraid That the Fire Hugs
 Have Again Begun Operations.
 DANBURY, Nov. 27.-There were three fires here this afternoon and evening in quick suc- oession, and people are beginning to fear that the fire bugs have begun work again. At 4 o'clock Whites Bazaar was afre and was damaged about $100 worth. At 6 o'clock the hat manufaetory of the Hollyville, Tyre company was ablaze. The flames were put out before any damage was done, but about 2 o'clock the fire broke out again and did over $100 damage. It was scarcely 7:S0 when the residence of MT. Lewis on River street was seen to be in flames. Before tho fire could be gained control of by the fire department the house was burned to the ground. Itis thought that all of the con- dagrations were of incendiary origin, and the closest watch is kept for the supposed fire bugs. It was only few weeks ago that the series of big fires which set the town in . furore occurred.

The Tory Labor Programme. .


 LONDON, Nov. 27.-The Conservative con- ference at Nottingham yesterday approved Lord Salisbury's social programme, but at- tached rider declaring that the party must have an effective labor electoral platform. During the course of the proceedings Lord Salisbury condemned the declaration recently made by Lord Roseberry at Liberal meet ing in Glasgow that the reform of the House of Lords must be of drastic character and said that the declaration was rash one. If Lord Roseberry meant that the House of Lords ought to contain an elected element superior to the hereditary members, that necessarily involved an eneroachment upon the rights and privileges of the House of Commons. Referring to the progress of the home rule idea scheme to federate England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, Lord Salisbury said he considered the application of such a scheme to Great Britain as utterly chimeri. cal

To no part of this great country
can the above remark be more APP
propriately applied than to that
section known rs the great North
west. With its boundless pararies,
mountains, rivers, and innumerable
lakes, and wonderful resources in
minerals and grain, it is truly q
magnificent country. And what
could be more beautiful at this sea-
son of the year, when the grand
forest mOnarchs of the Northwest
woods take on the rainbow tints
and colors of autumn. If travellers,
instead of visiting foreign countries
and chimes, would pay little more
attention to their own land, they
would find beautiful scenes and
wonderful mountains and lakes
that do not lose anything by com.
parisOn with those of Europe.
Travellers rave over the beauties Of
the Irish and Italian lakes, but let
them see the beautiful lakes of Min
netonka, Calhoun, Harriet and
White Bear in Minnesota and the
foreign sheets of inland water, no
matter how beautiful they may be,
fade into insignificance. To add
more to these beautiful spots, they
can be reached at a trifling expense
compared to a European trip. Any
