SCHRED US.
n Wild Fire Comes Raging
Down Toward the Pine
Tree Cos. Plant.
The City Turns Out Las,
Evening and Heads off
the Danger.

A fire has been burning fora few
days in the meadows and brush
land northwest Of the city, and a
strong wind from that direction
gradually drove It nearer the city,
until last evening it had reached the
| city limits on that side of town, and
was coming on will, the aid Of a
favoring wind. The Pine Tree
Lumber company had prepared with
men and water to meet it at the
road running north on the West
Side, which was only a few blocks
from the lumber yard, but soon
after Z O'Clock the flames seemed SO
threatening that a general fire alarm
was sounded from the mill whistle
and the city department turned
out. The tract between the road
and lumber yard was mostly
meadow, with tail dry grass, and
If the flames had reached 1T active
work would have been necessary to
save the lumber yard and mills.
After the arrival of the city de-
partment the city hose and mill hose
was attached to hydrants and the
grass and brush thoroughly soaked
for several blocks along the place Of
danger, back fires set, and there was
soon Il wide space between the
main fire and the Pine Tree COM
panys' property over which a fire
could not pass. Before 10 O'Clock
i he firemen returned with their
apparatus to the City Hall, and
only force Of mill men remained to
guard against any new emergency.
The interest shown by all the
people in the threatening fire last
evening indicated how much the
interests Of the great lumber firm
are appreciated by our people. 1t is
so evident that any disaster to the
greatest employer of labor in
Morrison county would be OF injury
to all other interests, that even a
threat from a wild fire attracted
hundreds Of men for hours, and all
worked hard to prevent any
damage.
