pigs naturally being in the same condi

managed to keep bis men and teams buoy
when there was little else TO do. The
pigs were always comfortable and clean,
and large quantities Of manure were made,
generally getting from three or four large
pig pens 80 TO 60 loads OF fine manure.
There was stall times enough dry matt rial
to absorb the liquid matter. and thus
prevent much value from running down
the drums to be entirely lost and 10 make

ing that the war could never have been

DESTRUCTIVE FOREST FIRES IN
THE NORTHWEST.
Large Tracts of Timber Burned in Wis
oonsin and Minnesota-Many Villages
at the Mercy of the Flames-Dakota
Prairie Fires Quenched by Rain.

DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. 23.-Ever since
yesterday afternoon ashes and burned
leaves have been falling in the city,
while the air is so full of smoke that the
fog whistle at the harbor's mouth has
been kept blowing to guide in vessels.
All along the line Of the st. Paul and
Duluth road fires are raging. At Bar
mum, Mahtowa, Sturgeon Lake and Ket
tile River the fires are doing damage to
Hhatever of value there is in standing
timber. Near the railway on the line
of Eastern Minnesota, north of Hinck
ley, considerable valuable timber has
been ruined, and the fires are still rag
ing. On the Northern Pacific, east of
here, fires are doing immense damage to
settlers and crops. besides wiping out vast
quantities of standing pine. Near Iron
river, thirty miles east, where there are
many settlers, valuable property is be-
ing lost by the settlers, who are putting
in all their time trying to save their
houses. The range of the fires is toward
Ashland, Wis, and their progress is
greatly aided by the fact that week
ago heavy winds blew down much tim
ber, the foliage of which is now dried
out sufficiently to feed the flames.
FINLAYsoN, Mimi, Sept. 23.-This
village was thrown into the widest ex-
element yesterday by the report that
high wind storm was driving forest
fire toward the town, and that complete
destruction was threatened. The Off
cials of the st. Paul and Duluth road
were dispatched to hold the limited
until the women and children of the
town could be sent away. 1t was done,
and all the freight cars were also pulled
out by special engines. By 4o'clock the
flames had reached the outskirts of the
village. All night men battled the
flames, trying to save the buildings, and
aided by the cessation of the wind were
finally successful. This morning the
danger was gone and the women and
children returned.
HURON, S. D., Sept. 2S.-This part of
the state is enjoying splendid rain to-
night, the first in over month. The
prairie fires are quenched, the intense
heat is broken and the ground soaked.
HELENA, Mont, Sept. 23.-Thirty
thousand dollars damage was wrought
this morning, $4,000 by fire and the bal
ance by heat, smoke and gas.
The flames originated in the
basement OF Poke & O'Connor's
drug store. They were soon under
control, but not until exploding chemi-
Gals had done great damage. The drug
gists place their loss at $4,000; fully
insured. Other smaller losses make the
aggregate Of $4,000.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Sept. 23.-For-
est fires are raging to the south and
east. The village of Comstock is nearly
destroyed and Cumberland is in danger.

guage of the country. At the same time
we protest most emphatically that for
this reason the cry of foreignism is
raised against US, and that an attempt
is made at denying us equal rights with
other American citizens. Our hopes for
the future are based on the central
union Of the German Young Mems So
cieties. SO successfully brought about in
Pittsburg.
We reiterate our confidence in, and
attachments to, the reverend bishops of
the United States.
We protest against all attempts to
encroach upon the rights of the Indians
IN the selection and practice of their re-
ligion.
The platform closes with resolution
OF regret at the death of the late mem
Der of the German relchstag. Herr
Windthorst; pays tribute of gratitude
70 his memory, and pledges all to profit
by his example il upholding aud de-
tending the great principles for which
be maDfully contended.
At the American Catholic Young
Mems meeting today the following Off
GERS were elected: Rev. Bernard He'll,
Pittsburgh, national president; Charles
Och, Pittsburg, recording secretary;
Joseph Beiman, Pittsburg, correspond
ing secretary; Joseph Matt, Buffalo,
financial secretary.
Archbishop Katzer, of Milwaukee,
was chosen protector of the central band
Of German Catholic Young Men of the
United States.
The business session of the congress
this afternoon was occupied most of the
time by Mr.. Wilderman, of New York,
in explaining the modus operandi of the
Carl Baromean society of Germany, an
organization for distributing Catholic
literature. The meeting appointed
committee to consider the advisability
of establishing branches of the society
in the United States.
A resolution was also passed provid-
ing for the selection of committee to
bring about reunion of the old German
Central society and the Katolischentag.

Physic.
LINCOLN, Neh., Sept. 23.-The Repub-
lican state convention meets tomorrow
to nominate a candidate for justice of
the supreme court, two candidates for
regents of the state university and pro-
mulgate a platform. The medicine men
of the party are to pow-wow behind
closed doors tonight, and in The vernac-
ular of Nebraska politician, whose cor
respondence has passed into history,
they will make medicine before morn
ing. Its salutary ingredients will be the
endorsement of the Mckinley tariff law
and the principles of reciprocity; de-
mand for liberal pensions for old soldiers !;
the approval of the purposes of, and
an appropriation for the world fair, and
demand for an honest American dollar.
Upon the financial question only is
there any considerable division of sem
timent, but it seems that the position
assumed will be merely an Endorsement
af the silver legislation of the last con-
gress. A reasonable readjustment of
the freight rates throughons the state is
to be recommended, and as the first Re-
publican convention since the admis-
sion of American pork into France and
Germany, this great pork producing
state of the west is to congratulate the
present administration, and particularly
the state and agricultural departments,
upon this brilliant diplomatic victory.
The state central committee tonight
selected Hon. George H. Thum-
mel, of Grand Island, temporary chair
man of the convention.

A TERRIBLE smAsHUp.
Three Hundred Sheep Killed in a Train
Disaster Near Baden.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 23.-A freight
train accident which proved very de-
structive occurred today on the coast
division of the Southern Pacific near
Baden. A north-bound fast freight was
passing down grade, when it broke in
two near the middle. The forward por-
ticn ran ahead and then slowed down.
The heavily-laden rear cars, which had
attained high rate of speed. followed
the other section and soon crashed into
it. In the three middle cars of the
train several hundred sheep were close
ly huddled together. At least 300 OF
the animals were instantly killed by the
telescoping of the cars and many of the
others were badly injured. Four cars
were thrown off the track.

OTrUMwA, Ia, Sept. 23.-An immense
crowd of Republicans turned out to hear
Major Mckinley speak at the Coal pal
ace today. Major Mckinley repeated
his argument against free silver, saying
if that policy was adopted the silver of
the world would rush in on us and the
government must receive 41215 grains of
silver, worth so cents the world over,
and coin therefor piece Of money
which the fat of the government would
be called and circulated as a dollar, the
extra twenty cents unprotected by the
treasury reserve, ss now. Will the
government be as kind to the producer
OF wheat, and pay him twenty cents a
bushel over the market price? The
major also dealt at length with the tariff
question, reiterating his former argu-
.ment. He said the statement that a
protective tariff increased the mortgages
of the country is absurd.
