CRAWLING,

Lansing. June 1.-The weather con-
ditions the past week have been very
beneficial to all growing crops, and
wheat, grass, oats and corn that is up
have improved rapidly. The warm
weather of the latter part of the week
has made all crops boom. The corn
is being planted rapidly and is nearly
finished In the southern section, and
the late planted is growing finely.
That planted early in the month has
not done SO well and some of 1t has
been replanted. Fruit trees in the
northern section are in full bloom and
promise well. The effects Of the frost
May II in Berrien county on small
fruits have not been as serious as at
first anticipated. and there is promise
of large yield of small fruits. Corn

Shaw treats of London Poly technics

is particularly timely, as similar insti-

parts of the world. The frontispiecp
is portrait OF Walter Besant, author
of "All Sorts and Conditions of Men. -
This being the first summer number
of the Century, Walter Camps illus
trated paper on Track Athletics in
America" is particularly timely.
Perhaps the most striking feature Of
this number is the beginning ofanoth-
er anonymous novel called THE An
glomaniacs. The scene is laid in
New York. and the story is evidently
written by one who knows well the
situation. The pictures are furnished
by G. ID. Gibson, who knows how to
give charm to his heroines.

FIRE IN BRAINERD.
A Disastrous Conaagration
Visits Brainerd in the
EARLY Morning.
Flames Rage Unchecked for
Nearly an Hour for Lack
Of Water.

ERAINEED, Special Telegram, Oct. H.
Fire started early this morning in barn il,
the rear of the Commercial hotel and had
gained considerable l,ca,iway before the
tire department arrived. and then It was
handicapped for forty five minutes ior
water, owing to q difficulty at the pump
house. The flames had gained such head.
way by this time that it was impossible to
check them, and . district covering q block
and half was burned over.
The fire spread to the hotel and that large
building was soon envcloped in flames, the
wind carrying the cindcrs and sparks into
the air. The buildings adjoining the hotel
on the south, being the old Peter Mcrt1
building, the old city lookup and build.
ing owned by G. W. Holland were soon
ablaze. and in turn fired the new Catholic
parsonage and the Catholic church.
In the meantime the flames were working
eastward and had crossed Fifth street and
ignitetl the Gardener building on the cor.
ner. occupied by A. Il. Veon, jewelcr, and
time water came to the assistance of the
firemcn. which saved the business portion,
ofthe city from almost total destruction.
The fire was checked on Laurel street after
it had licked up the five buildings belong.
ing to George Gardener. Everything was
burned on Fifth street south to Maple, the
wind favoring the fircmcn at this point in
the block. Where the Commercial stood
but one building remains untouched by the
fire. 1t is quite generally conceded that the
fire was ofincendiary origin.
The fircmcn could easily have stopped
the further destruction OF property ii the
rived but tho unfortunate occurrence at
the pump house resulted in the destruction
Of nearly $4,000 worth OF property. The
hotel was owned by George f. Hayes ol
Minneapolis and valued at $25, 100, with all
insurance of $500. Total loss, $72OUI;
total insurance, $4,000.

Slavery. Sutural l:arrier.

October Scribncr: Slavery, as is well
known, depended for its extension on two
important crops, both of which demanded
u large amount of cheap labor, and afford
ed articles which commerce greatly de-
mands. The institution rested on the in-
dustrics of tobacco and cotton growing.
Only where one OF these crops could be
protitably titled did the institution ever
firmly establish itself. A glance at the map

soil and !orm OF the surface, and the nature
of the climate, make the land uns,litcd
for the extended culture of either
tobacco or cotton. The result was, slavery
never firmly established itself as an eco

territory Here and there in the more fer

there are counties in this area where slave
